This Is the usual time, at which It becomes incumbent upon your presid ing 0 Hirer, to review tho acts and enact menu of your honorable body during the preceding year, and also to submit such suggestions, aa in his discretion would Umd most to the future welfare and prosperity ot our growing city. In complying with this requirement, I do- sire, only briefly, to address the retiilug. as well as the incoming members of the council. In looking over the field of your labors during the past year, it Is at once apparent, that many improvements have already been completed, and many more fully inaugurated, and now tn course of construction, and Hearing com pletion, that will prove of great and enduring benefit to the people of our city. , ... . . 1 , . oucn important enmrpriaes ivo 01 necessity occasioned an unusual expen diture of the public money, for the time being, but gentlemen. I aut gliut to be able to congratulate you upon the fact, that full compensation has been reivel for all such expenditures, and is now the heritage of your constituents. The rapid growth of the eastern additions to our city, during the past two yearr, haa demanded a largo expenditure of public money, in the building of crosswalks, grading anil graveling public squares, building bridges, etc , which were au absolute necessity to the convenience, and for the accommodation of the resi dent of those sections, it was right and proper that such improvements should be made, as oar citizens are fully entitled to them. You are especially to b com plimented for devising, and adopting the sewerage system, now almost completed, I think it can be correctly stated, that the year 18V2( will witness the city of Albany supplied with the most complete sewerage accommodations, ot any city of similar proportions in the Willamette Valley, and also at the least cost. There waa wisdom, as well aa humanity in your decisions In this regard. There is nothing that so attracts investment from abroad, as the reputation for bealthful ness poeaeesed by a city. Justice to our people, and humanity alike demand that everything possible should be done to relieve our homes of sickness and disease, and while the ele ments have retarded and delayed the completion of this work, you stilt have the satisfaction of knowing, that it has occasioned no extrs outlay of the people's money, only the delay ot utilization and in this connection, it seems to me, that it is your imperative duty to see that latteral connections are made through out the entire city. The contracting for the completion, the provisions made for the payment, and the active commence ment, and progress of construction of "the high steel bridge" . spanning the Willamette river at thia point, deserves some mention at this time. The project waa new, the considerations were weighty, with which you had to grapple, nnder these new and trying circum stances, mistakes may have Wen made, and errors committed, but it it ev'ient that each one acted from the iest light and conscience that surrounded him, and you have today, the proud satisfac tion of seeing the finest structure of its kind being reared, that exists in the Northwest. And you will pardon mo, it I am too enthusiastic in saying, our peo ple w ill rise np to bless you, lor the labor bestowed, for the wisdom and energy maintained in carrying this great enter prise to a point, that makes its early completion assured, and Us duration permanent. it la tne welding 01 tne ciuei links in the chain of valued improvements, which nxei Albany as the center ol a broad and rirli agricultural district. It adds permanency, stability and advanced values to every to bered in the front ranks, we must keep abreast of the times in public improve ments. Encourage worthy enterprises tn every legitimate way to locate in our midst. Protect them with proper Iran' chises. but seeing at all time that the rights ot our people are not surrendered. ' Gentlemen, I manic each and every one, for the courtesies extended me in the past. J L Cowak, Mayor. Hi UOHK ARB ARUMAB MONDAY. Tlmr it ssid tobs corns ouifidoii in sugar market.

Its Immediate and local bene fits to our people will not be measured by oar expectation. The direct and positive trade that it will bring to our streets, will exceed our most sauguine estimates. But while tbe old council have been coropelcd to do much in the past, there still remains a vast deal for you gentle men ot the new board to do, your earnest attention will be required to see that tlrese new and extensive improvements are carried to a correct and proper com pletlon. Jlose scrutiny will be demand ed. that no errors or mistakes creep in or that money shall be expended with out proper compensation. lhero are many suggestivo topics that must be passed for the present. You will, however, excuse me if I call your attention to the present condition of your main street. , I have no definite suggestion to offer at this meeting in re card to the matter, but the properity holders on said street will not long re main quiet under present conditions. Experience has clearly proven that it is impossible to prepare a good street in our climate from tbe graveling process. 1 would therefore especially urge it as the duty of the committee on streets and public property, to make such examina tions ami investigation, as would in tne near future give to that street, at least, the most economical and permanent road-bed. This is referred to as one of tbe problems yott will soon be called upon to solve. The fire department of our city is found to be in most efficient condition, the entire indebtedness against the new steamer having been liquidated dnnng the past year. As to the financial status ol our city government, I would respectfully refer you to the exhibits of the recorder and treasurer, which snow a most gratify ing result in comparison with that of our sister cities. Touching upon economic questions that must soon engage tbe attention of our citizens, will give it as my impres sion, that as soon as is practicable, that the true policy 01 an municipalities will De to own tneir own water system, as well as their electric or lighting power, thus reducing to the minimum the cost to the consumer of these important staples. F ally gentlemen, with the comple tion of our steel thoroughfare across the Willamette river, with active construc tion work easterly upon the Oregon Pacific railroad, with the enhanced val ues of our grain product, added to the copious and fertilising showers of the pastiew weens, i confidently predict that we shall bave a year of unexampled a 11 j 2. jruouciiLV iu Aiusur auu lis VlClulty.

Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder possesses a peculiar merit not approacEed by that of any other baking powder. It produces the hot buckwheat, Indian or wheat cakes, hot biscuit, doughnuts, waffles or muffins. Any of these tasteful things may be eaten when hot with impunity by persons of the most delicate digestive organs. Dr. Price's Cream Bak ing Powder leavens without firmentation or decomposition. ; In its preparation none but the purest of cream of tartar, so da, etc. is used, and in such exact equivalents as to always 'guarantee a perfectly neutral result, thereby giving the natu ral and sweet flavor peculiar to buckwheat and other flour that may bo used, the natural flavor so much desired and ep predated by all. The oldest patrons of Dr. Prices powder tellr the story, that they can never get the same results from any other leavening agent, that their griddle cakes, biscuits, etc. are .never so light and never taste so sweet or so good as when raised vith Dr. Prices Cream Baking Powder. v ' , SHERIFFS SALE.
