Cut Rates for Telephones.

AS a result of petition to the Pacif-
ic States Telephone Company, which
was numerously signed by Linn
county patrons OF the company, a
reduction has been made in the tele-
phone rates between Albany and
Shedds, Halsey, Brownsville, Leba-
non, Scio, Crabtree ard Jefferson, the
principal towns Of the county. The
rate was reduced from 25 to IS cents,
and is good only for subscribers to the
Pacific States system. This is con-
sidered by many as the beginning OF
the war between the independent tele-
phone lines and the Pacific States
lines in Linn County.

Took But One Drink.

Reports have been in circulation
since the execution of Guglielmo, that
the doomed man was given drugs to
enable him to undergo the ordeal with
fortitude, and that he was drunk
when he appeared on the scaffold.
This is denied, not only by the super
intendent and warden Of the peniten-
tiary, but by the day and night death
watches. The condemned man was
given one drink of whiskey lew
minutes before he left his cell for the
evocution chamber. Stimulants are
usually given men in the shadow OF /.
the gailows. It was the first glass ol
liouor Guglielmo had tasted since ne
was returned to the penitentiary from
the Multnomah county jail by sherlH
Word.
