A Bridge Talk.

The Scio Press objects to the county
assuming any responsibility in connec-
ton with the bridge at this city, declar-
ing that Albany gets all the benefit,
which is not fact; but 1t wants the
bridge at Scio redeckei and repaired by
the county, though Scio just as much
ge.s al. the benefit. Jefferson, in another
county gets all OF the benefit OF the bridge
at that city, and Stayton, in another
cou atty of the bridge there, but Linn coun-
" has 10 pay half OF the expense of keep
ing it up
Does Albany get ell the benefit of this
bridge any more than any town all the
benefit OF the bridge leading 10 it? The
bridge at Brownsville is for the benefit
OF that city, the one at Scio for that city
and yet as a matter of fact they are OF
benefit 10 the whole county, ave, to the
whole state. The Albany bridge is OF
benefit TO the entire Willamette valley
and il is particularly OF benefit TO Linn
and Benton counties. In this matter of
bridges We need 10 be broad, for IL is a
fact that bridges are a part OF the system
oi highways OF q state, aud though local
towns may gct the most benefit, il reach
Is out. Our laws provide that counties
shall keep up their own bridges. and ii
they do il in one ease they should do il IN
all cases without discrimination. A city
that pays fourth OF the taxes OF a coun-
Is is entitled 10 bridge that will be OF
benefit TO il.

other state in the union.
Oregon manufactures will be promi-
nent feature Of the Exposition at Port
land. The leading manufacturers OF the
state will have exhibits in which the
processes of manufacture will be carried

Dogs, Ponies, Monkeys.

1t is doubtful il more satisfied aud
ienee was ever gathered in Albany than
the 800 or 800 people who saw Prof.
Gentry's dogs, ponies and monkeys &c
through many wonderful maneuvers and
tricks. The entertainment is a delight
full one at every point, an eye opener for
old and young. Prof. Gentry was in Al
bany five years ago, at the opera house,
but the present entertainment was as
fresh as ii never given here. That ami
mails can be taught so many bright tricks
is TACT that is always a surprise TO one
witnessing them. The dogs and ponies
enter into the program with the life oil
trained men, only more. Every feature
is q novelty Not the least pleasing is
the cute riding OF the monkey.
A matinee was given this afternoon,
and tonight another entertainment will
be given no doubt to a large audience.

4 Timely Reminder,

Each season forces upon our eonsidera-
ton its own peculiar perils to health.
The advent of fall finds many reduced il
strength and vigor, poorly prepared to
continIe the business of life. The stom-
ach and bowels, the great highway oi
animal economy, is especially liable to
disorder in the fall. The nervous sys-
tenn has also suffered in the struggle. Ty.
phoid fevec and malaria in particular
tind IN the fail that combination oiearth,
air and water that mark this season as
especially dangerous. The falling leaves,
the decaying vegetables, contribute their
share of contamination. Hoods Sarsa-
parilla furnishes most valuable safe
guard at these important points, and
should be used in the fall before serious
sickness has laid you low.

A PANTHER SroRY.-The Review is not
anxious TO get up reputation for telling
big hunting yarns, but it is willing to
give the following true panther story.
Elmer Weekly, who herds sheep for
Frank Waite, just over the Coast range
back Of callahan's sawmill, came across
three panthers one day about three
weeks ago and quickly dispatched them.
Last Sunday before breakfast he met
three more on the trail, and going home
got his gun and Mr., Ensley's dog, and in
very short time had three more panther
hides. The average length OF these ami
mails was about eight ieet, all OF them
fully grown. 1t is unnecessary to add
that panthers are thick in the Coast
mountains, and that sheepmen are kept
busy protecting focks.-Roseburg Re

He does not think much of the shipping

writes that the price OF grain has fallen
10 cents bushel in the past month, and
that in consequence much of the crop

prices. He says 10 per cent OF the crop
in the Palouse is ruined, and this, with
the decrease in acreage, will probably
send prices away up during the next
three months.-Telegram
