900 TO give this town first class hotel,

FREE DELIyKRY.-Alhany should have
a free delivery. In towns under 10000
where il has been tried 1t has been a
great success. An Eastern Ex. saya
Postmaster-Ceneral anamaker Is great
ly pleased with the succeas OF the free
delivery system in the small towns in
which IL has been introduced. The ex
pertinent shows that the extra cost e
almost met by the increased revenue.
Naturally the erroueous reports to the
effect that the trials were n sad failure
cause annoyance 70 the head Of the post
Office department. The extension Of free
delivery is practical matter OF the high
est value 10 the people Of the country, and
il is hoped that these experiments may
be the prelude to universal free deliy-
cry system such as the people OF England
enjoy. The ore tried at Rosebury has
met with popular favor there.

A STREET Can STRIKE.-The Oregon
Pacific is not alone in its Affections.
Here is another case from the Salem
Journal, which reads rather funny, COM
ing right after the state fair, supposed to
be bonanza for street cars: "All but
two OF the old drivers on the Salem street
railway have struck and their places are
filled by new men. The others will quit
Saturday night. There is a dissatisfac-
ton about their wPges. The company
is behind in it's payroll two months with
some OF the men and there is liable to be
a demand for a receiver to be appointed"
LARGE RECEIPTS. The cash footIngs
for receipts of the Southern Pacific railroad
at Eugene for the month Of September
are $I7, ,IS7S7. These are the heaviest
monthly receipts ever taken In by the
Office Guard. A good record for place
like Eugene. Albanys best record is near
ly 50 per cent more.
BIG PEAcHEs.--Mrs w r Bilyeu left at
the DEMOCRAT Office today several peaches
running In size up TO rIH inches. They
were taken from tree In her yard In this
city and speak for themselves. A peach
of that size needs,no comment.
