The usual New Year belli rang out on
the mldalght air last Firday night and Sat
urday morning, and the usual number got
frightened, forgot themselves, dressed and
rushed through the streets yelling "Are" for
'all that was out" The custom is a pain
fully and excruciatingly pleasant one, and
in saying this we break our resolution not
to lie during the year.

The M. A. T. has seen an oil painting In

Last Saturday forenoon at exactly it
o'clock the draw on the new O. P. bridge
swung into place for the first time, after an
easy and well balanced swing. During the
remainder of the day the operation was re
peated on several occasions to permit river
steamers to pass. As the time for the first
turn had been kept secret, many thinking it
was to be at 9 o'clock,the number who wit
nessed It was comparatively small. During
the day, though, several hundred took ad
vantage of pleasant weather to visit the
structure nd perchance witness the turning
of the immense 6o foot draw. Thus Ben
ton and Linn counties are united. Better
still, an important step has been taken in
the construction of a great transcontinental
line. Without eating sour grapes, let us
remark that the completion of this bridge is
of far more value to Lian county people
than if it were a wagon bridge. The addi
tion of four and five cents a bushel to the
price of wheat alone speaks for this. The
reduction in the price of com modo ties if
another. item,. Other blessings might be
named. Jt took enterprise and money to

Albany, Jan. 3rd, 1887.
Msvor Wcatheriord delivered the follow
Hg si!dre
GaWTLBMItM OR TMB Cot'MCTL : It Is
made the duty of the Mayor, at the annual
meeting, provided by the charter, to com
muntcate by message to tne council, a gca
era! statement of the cojuttttan and affair of
at von, and to rccom
f such measures aa he
mav deem expedient and proper
One vear ago, according to the reports 01
-M . . . m
the city oUcers and the message of Mayor
Ketchum, the city was in debt in the sum
of $3453.19, being in esxes of the limit by
law - f 3000 being tne limit oc indeocedneea.
The first paramount duty of the Council
waa to reduce the Indebtedness to or under
that sum, which waa done, and the present
indebtedness will not exceed the sum of
about $1,400. And la this connection I
call attention to the tabulated report of the
City Recorder. It will be seen from his re
port that the actual running expenses of the
city amount to nearly as much as the rev
enues, and win require good nnnncteryuj
nd strict economy to keen wit km the limits
provided In the chatter for indebtedness, on
the revenues how derived by the city from
the various sources and make such public
improvements as the interest of the public
requires at your hands, nut by wonting
gradually and economically I am pRfsRitded
that more can ne done during ne present
than was done the past year.
I have but lew suggestions in reference
to fgture legislation, of such general im
portance aa to require special mention, to
make to the Council. There are, however,
some matters which I deem of sufficient
importance to refer to and ask you to con
elder :
During the past year the authorities hare
been hampered and circumscribed in the
I , . . , a
ffjra
i- - v;' , v wi(i tWat K
on that subject. I would suggest that the
I I -.-1 n. .W ImU .IhM 1m ..ItaJ
I COiniilK NHUIII V "It ihiui in, w
I .
j to change that portion of the eity charter so
I as to simplify and expedite the repairing of
sidewalks and streets. As the law now
stands before the adjoining owners can be
comoeiled to repair their walks tt ever, to
small or of srreat public necessity the Coun
cil must give notice thrudgh it officers and
if at the expiration ot tne time given tne
. a " e e . Or -a. 0 . I
work is not completed, then an estimate ot
the cost is to be made and reported to the
Council then an ordinance must be enacted
covering the particular work to be done.
This is one and perhaps the principal rea
son for the difficulty experienced during the
past year in repairing streets and sidewalks.
Too much red tape and too much vexation,
delavs and unnecessary legislature. A
verv
a,llt,f amnimnt - th nrermnif law will I
think cure the defect For the eood of the
city I trust that the Council will instruct
the Uty Attorney to draft a hill covering
ixus pmrii ana siy uinejrs 1111 may aa w
the nest interests of the eity,
i aiso suggest tnat as soon at tne cnaner
s amended, if it should be, that the laws of
the city be codified or arranged in some
convenient way so that any one may learn
