an InsLi.Gl 81 Of learning, which, under
its present able management and It's
efficient corps Of teachers, is 80 well
adapted TO ft the young men and young
women, the boys and the girls Of our
county and indeed Of our state, to
grapple successfully with the great
problem of life, and to become good aud
useful citizens.
In the past twenty years Of It's exis-
tence many noble men and women have
gone out from the Santiam Academy,
and are now filling positions Of honor
and responsibility, but perhaps in all
the years there never was gathered
within it's walls at one time as large a
number or, / will venture TO say, az
intellectual pupils as those whose bright
faces greeted us 80 heartily OH Thursday
and Friday evening.
That the thinking public may know
something Of tho wsrk done, it il only
necessary to say that twcnty-one Of the
students have passed critical and in
every way satisfactory examination
before our County School Superinten-
dent and each received teachers certi-
hcate, and are neatly all at the present
writing employed in the various Districts
Of the county. While we would not
disparage the claims Of any, yet we
proudly challenge any other Institute
in the State to show better record.
During the six years in which Pro-
fessor Gilbert has bad charge Of the
Academy not one caso of corporal pun
isbmsnt has been inflicted, moral suAsion
being the rule, and found TO DO most
effective one. What q glorious change
since the days, alas long gone By, when
the writer first learned the rudimsnts,
truly my back aches to think OF IL,
although, Of course, I was a model
boy (D. Professor Gilbert was the first
10 teacn in the SAntiam Academy with-
out the aid of public funds, the district
school of Lebanon having formerly been
taught there. Many timid ones thought
that tho withdra wal of the district
money would bankrupt the Academy,
and ono gentleman remarked in public
speech made against the proposition
that in less than five years the Academy
building would be for rent as a hay
barn, but Professor Gilbert was net dis
mayed, from the first the school under
his management has steadily prospered
and the attendance has more than
J doubled since the first year, while pupils
in the music have increased from Si1
persons the first year TO thir:y-fve the
past year, and the receipts from tut tior
are three times rs much as they were
the 6rst year.
In this hastily written notice / have
omitted 10 mention the throng Of parenti
and friepds who filled the largo audi.
torium OF the Academy chapel on both
evenings, standing room only being th'
rule, and also have not singled out tho
different pupils by name, but all die
well. Perhaps the gems were Evi
Cowan aud Ora Ballard, not forgetting
little Dot Hope who is genuine infAn
phenomena.
Many and prosperous be the lays o.

Eds. Democrat:
not seeing anything in your paper
from this part of the world, thought
few items might be of interest to some
of your readers.
The weather is fine at present, the
farmers are about dene seeding. Fruit
trees are out in full bloom, good pros
poets for fruit crop.
Mr.. Yillar, late of Scio, takes charge
of the harness shop here the irst of next
month.
Mr.. Daley, once of Scie, is a good
mechanic, but failure as fisherman.
Ashland is to have bank soon, also
new school house, too many children
for the old house.
The Railroad track is within two
miles of town.
Roads bad between Ashland and
Phoenix.
Several wsbfooters in-town.
Ashland now boasts OF six saloons
and chinese wash house.
Men out here don't want Office, moth.

The Astoria Independent is making
herculian efforts to get up little boom
upon which 1t hopes to secure the
Republican nomination to Congfess
fer one G. w. Fulton and the nomi-
nation for district Judge for one Tay-
lor both of Clatsop County. In order
10 add respectability to the claims of
these gentlemen that paper says that
the Democrats of that county favo
them We feel justified In saying
that this is SANDER upon the demo
Gratis of that county. And we would
.urther say that the names of Fulton
and Taylor are not on the Republican
slate of Portland and hence it is folly
to urge their claims.

ATTEND the PRIMARIES.

Tomorrow the Democratic primaries
will be held in the several precincts of
the county. At them, more than any
where else, is the question of candidates
determined. Hence,al Democrats who
desire the nomination of good, compe-

be on hand and see that delegates OF
sound judgment and discretion are
elected to the convention to be held on
the 1Ith inst.

Chairman County Central Com.

The next political campaign is likely
to turn almost entirely upon the ques-
ton Of Republican extravagance az
contrasted with Democratic economy.
The people are weary of incsssant taxes
and a constantly accumulating Surplus
in the Treasury which apparently has
no other object than to invite to waste
full expenditure and folly. It IL better
to do something for the people and not
quite SO much for the politicians. The
country demands new deal, and from
present indications it is likely to get it.

was examined. Tie saw the riot from
Q short distance, and saw tho shootin Z
from both directions Witness describ-
ed the threats which had been made by
the colored mon against their fellows
who should vote the Democratic ticket.
Jas. Woods, City Sergeant of DAnvilIe,
Republican, was satisfied the riot was q
sudden ebuslition, not premeditatsd. On
cross examination he said II would no,
have been safe TO have called out the
colored militia. He thought II would
prevent violence TO put the Democratic
party in control. He thought It would
aggravate the feeling of eolored men ol
the peace guard.

The practice of figuring up the re-
suit of presidential elections before
hand is once more in vogue and many
are indulging in that harmless pastimo.
The result of the most intelligent caleu-
lators throughout the country is about
as follows
Under the new apportionment there
will be 40l votes in the electoral college
OF this number the Southern states will
furnish 153, all democratic. In order
to get majority in the college is more
votes must be secured.
