A Portland Sunday paper makes the
hoodlumism around the Albany depot Of
such dastardly and bIood-thirsty nature
that Il intimates several of the boys ought
to be shot. The paper says that "here in
Portland We have police 10 make boys
behave themselves but In our country
towns there is no local government" We
admit Albany hoodlnms arc bad enough,
We have no excuses TO make for them bat
the picture Is oyerarawn. Our hoodlums
do not compare with Portland hoodlnms,
and they are no worse than the "hoods" OF
our ncighboring cities. Al there is about
It hoodlum IL bad institution in any
form. The following from the paper re-
ferrcd shows how ridiculous metropolitan
paper can be- Its statement Is not true.
The largest cities grow many Of their own
drunkards
The man who walks along tho principal
thoroughfares OF Portland and secs the
scores OF bsoken-down sports and totally
wrecked drunkards who arc lying about the
saloon doors, would hardly believe that
most Of them grew up, In the interior towns
Of Oregon, surrounded by good influences
and beloved BY Christian mothers but We
regret TO say that such Is the actual fact.

Reports from the country inducea the
DEMocRAr to stick 10 its statement that the
wheat crop will be as large II not larger
than last year.
90 acres Of Mr.. Moses Parksr's wheat farm
yield 80 bushels 10 the acre. Several acres
on very poor land. though. bring his ayerags
down.
We are Informed that Il A Irvine will har'
vest about a thousand bushels moro Of wheat
than he expected. Thla serves him right,
a. his wheat face was q little too long whsn
wa met him last.
Farmers along the Narrow Gauge will be
able to ship wheat by that road through q
Portland inAids Of two weeks.
Several yields Of wheat with an average
Of thirty bushels are reported 70 as in oai
correspondence. which please read.
We hear Of mAay farmers who are beinl
surprised A. tho increase OF the yield Of wheat
over their expectations.
Several Liam county hop men have refassd
2s cents for their hops. Look Gus for ths
old story.
There is some Spring wheat after ali.
Threshing wheat Is the order generally
throag ghout the couaty. Thrsshers will eon

On last Monday evening the many friends
of Miss Mary Wheeler, of the Warm Spring
Agency, who Is visiting here for a short
time, gave her a reception at the residence
of Mr.. Ellis Knox, in this city. 1t was one
of the pleasantest affairs Of the summer,one
greatly appreciated by those who attended
Such an evening Of unalloyed enjoyment is
rarely passed. Miss Wheeler is held in
great esteem in Albany, and it is great
pri ,ilege for her friends here TO express
their appreciation Of her worth in this man
ner. She will return to Warm Springs IN
two or three lGys, having already visited
with her sister, Mrs Kitchen, at Stayton.
Miss Wheeler teaches one of the schools at
the agency.

II is nearly time for the State fair to be-
gin advertising. Last year they did ali Of
it in the OyegOnian. This year we suggest
that they give it to the DEMOCRAT and
Statesman. That is the proper way. Do
not divide 1t among the papers generally
but let us have the Jumps. If you conclude
not TO advertise and think you want lot Of
free advertising, send us one lone ticket Do
not send each Of the editors one. Or better
still send one ticket for all the editors Of all
the papers Of each city, and make them d.
vide it, that Is one go one day the next the
next, etc. Such a narrow business way
makes the newspapers love the institution
and spread it or, when they notice it. Il ha,
been about the program in the past. Oregon
needs successful state fair, and the DEMO
cRAT is willing to do its share towards hav'
ing one but it doesn't like the pi~ayunist
style peculiar to last years management.

Suver farmers have sent petition to Re-
ceiver Koehler asking that wheat be shipped
from there to Corvallis for 50 cents a ton,
declaring that II that price is not accepted
they will haul their wheat to the William.
ette and ship by steamer. As they repre-.
sent 10000 bushels of wheat the demand
Is an important one. Farmers have now
got to rustic for themselves. They are
obliged to squeeze in cent busheI wher

With this issue Vol. XXI closes. Next
week the DEMocRAr viii begin Vol. XXI.
We are getting too old to brag much when
each birthday comes around. Such things
do very well with young papers, but they
are unnecessary with well established
journals like the DEMOCRAT. We are do
ing very well, thank you. Like Newport
paper we would like 10000 subscribers ;
bur realize that we are doing uncommonly
well to report I-7oth Of that number. Next
week will be the stereotyped time for an
article headed Vol. XXI, hence wait until
then for the usual thunder and lightning.
The reason of there being So numbers this
year is easily explained in the fact that
there have been s. Fridays during the year.

In your kind notice of aHard Times, its
Cause and Cure" speaking of the authors
views you say, she would have only one
kind of money made of paper or some other
cheap material" This seems TO convey an
idea not held by the author nor expressed
in the work.
Strictly speaking there Is but one kind OF
money and that Is legal money, but IL may
be associated with any number Of different
substances to express its presence and exc
cute its functions, and whatever substance
is the best suited for this purpose, having due
regard for the rights and welfare OF the
people, Is the substance that should be EN-
pIoyed by the money creating power, ,whesh-
er gold, silver, paper. ccpper, nickel or all OF
them. But positively affirm that no one
substance that may be associated with mon.
ey to express It's presence and power should
have superior legal power above any other
substance having the same commission oi
the same nominal value, and challenge the
world to disProve the soundness OF the prop
osition.

MAN ABOuT Town.

Several months ago a citizen of Albany
lost fine COW. Though he advertised cx-
tensively for II the COW did not return. A
week or two ago being about mile from
Albany he spied the long lost beast. A
man had captured Il and was using the
milk, not making any effort 10 find the
owner on the contrary doing the opposite.
"A Sprightly offspring which the man claim.
cd to know nothing about was found hid.
In the face of all this demand was made
for paSturage. The NJ. A. T. calls this an
exceedingly peculiar case and requests the
readers of the DEMOCRAT to name it.
A few days ago the M, A. 7. listened to a
very heatedand scientific argument between
two " SIS. on the question of whether a
horse has brain, one claiming that he has,
and the other that there Is .nothing but
membranes 20 what Is called his brain.
Such terms as menecerebrumegetig
were slung around until we became dizzy.
We refuse to settle the question. One thing
certain, though, is, that the animal in queS.
ton has an immense sight of horse sense,
whatever the structure Of the nerve center
may be.
The M. A. T, hears considerable com.
plant at the freaks cut by some of the boys
at the depot when the evening train comes
in.
Waterloo is probably rightly named
when it comes TO some of the contests In.
dulged in there. One or two might be
mentioned where not even Napoieon's boot
strap was left BY the way people help
themselves to soda water, wherever they
board Visitors TO that healthy resort are
not of the class to be bulldozed.
If Henry WatterSon were to call the NJ
a. rs sister such names as he has been ap-
plying to Victoria he would get head put
on him in short meter. lie says she Is 'thS
far and torid old Queen"
The NJ. A. T. on Saturday took a ride
win Mr. N IN. Barrows, OF Shedd, after his
fine four year old stallion, jackson" lie
shows good style and speed and will make Q
fine horse. Last year at the State Fair he
took the first prize over seven competition
for being the best roadsterin his class,whieh
is a bigger puff than anything we can say
about him. A good roadster IS good
thing, and that is what jackson" Is.
o
Probably nothing has ever been more
energetically kicked at by the press OF the
northwest than the Immigration Board, oi
Portland. Probably nothing has ever de
served it more. Editors working and sweat
ing for Chinese pay dislike very much see
ing a man like Carlisle having healthy
sinecure, with nothing to back it. Send il
around.
Several Albany people who attempted tc
go in swimming at the Bay are reported a
having backed out on the approach Of tho
first wave, owing to the exceeding coldnes'
OF the water. AT the same time PortlanC
ladies would plunge in and remain ar
hour. We rise for an explanation.
If those bringing soda water TO Albany
would furnish new corks each time they
would make big hit.
