explosive-horse rugged wood saw un-
der complete control these days, and
woodpiles melt befor that machine
like dew before the morning luminary!
Our people are new beginning to
think of the erection of woolen mill.
A little effort would secure the neces-
sary stock. Let us have it-there is
no point in the State where such an
institution would pay better, and no
place offering so many inducements.
Messrs. Morris & Parker have built
an additional room on the east side of
their warehouse. The front or south
end is fitted mp as ain Office, while the
north END is used to store grain sacks,
which, by the way, require no little
room, as they have used about $4,000
worth this season.
We understand the Albany & San
tiam Canal Company have offered to
donate to the Home Manufacturing
Company block of land just east of
Morris s. Parker's warehouse, at the
mouth of the Canal, on condition that
they erect their buildings thereon.
This is liberal, certainly.
Mr.. McAlexander, an old citizen of
Albany, but of late resident of or
near Eugene City, was i'll the city on
Tuesday. He had been suffering with
rheumatism for some months, confined
a., -
quite lately. He is now, however, so
far recovered as to be about little.
He is stopping for the present at Soda
vile.
VIM, Donaca, of Lebanon. lost a
valuable horse at the State Fair last
week. The road between the city and
the grounds was full of teams, and in
attempting to pass round hack in
front of. his team, he met returning
hack, the pole of which struck the
horse in the side, penetrating the ami
NAL several inches, and killing him
almost instantly.
Piper Sc Maydenbaum, of Seattle,
w. T., occupied booth at the State
Fair, where they manufactured the
finest kind of candies, etc. Through
the politeness of our worthy County
Treasurer, Capt. Shields, we have
been favored with specimen of their
candy, which shows what art and skill
combined can produce, even in so
sweet an article. Thanks, Cap.
We commence, this week, printing
the laws. AS they will take up the
entire first and eighth pages of our pa
per for some weeks, we shall issue a
supplement each week, containing the
latest news, ETC.. so that our readers
will be gamers instead of losers be-
cause of such laws. The REGISTER
will keep up it's lick, so long as it is
so freely and literally backed by this
public.
. Baker Gay and his brother, Good,
started for the headwaters of the Nc
Kenzie, where they will spend the
: winter trapping beaver, martin, otter,
, etc. They will also kill and cure ven-
g ison and other wild game. AS Baker
is an old trapper, the brothers will
doubtless have n successful run during
. the winter, returning in the spring
with ''dead loads'' of furs and jerked
meat.
q Our artistic friend. Wadsworth. re-
turned from the region of Moss Butte,
o a day or two since, where he went to
= locate a ranch. He succeeded, he in
forms US, in obtaining l60 acres OF
a good land in that section, on to which
# he intends moving his family at once.
If Wad. proves to be as good farmer
as he is a painter, he will be million
aiie yet.
n On Tues day. a little son of Mr..
v Chambers, who lives on A. Hackle.
.e mans farm, probably fifteen years O.
n age, was thrown from a refractory
horse with such force as to deprive
=. him of his senses for time. He wa!
% considerably confused about the head
!. ond thumb nail torn of, and pretty
- well shook up generally. DR.. Linsey
