Hew Barinew House to B Erected The City'i Railway Advantages. The prospects for brick building in Albany was never better than at present. Plans for a number of fine brick buildings are being made. The first to be commenced is that of Win. Vance on second street below Ellsworth, which i. now under way. Keal ettate transfers in and about the city are lively, also indi cating a healthy growth. A street railway will soon be in oeration, new business houses and many new residences are constantly be ing added to the city, and alto geiher the prospects of a substan tial growth are most flattering. The current number of the West Shore says of Albany : The railway center of the Wil lamette valley is the city of Albany. And not only has' it this verv prominent distinction, but it is the central and niof-t important primary shipping point, both by river and by rail. The junction oi two such important transportation lines as the Southern Pacific and the Oregon Pacific railways is of great advantage. Iiesides thi. Albany is ata point whce a branch road joins the main Oregon line oi the Southern Pacific. The branch extends to the eastward, and is the chief artery of commerce for an important portion of Linn county. It brings to Albany the large quantities of grain and wool and miscellaneous products from the farms and from the ranges that are designed for consumption in the local market or for shipment abroad, either by way of Portland or Yaquina bay, and it takes from Albany the merchandise which the people along the line con-ume. Some twelve miles east of Albany, at Lebanon, this branch forms a junction witit the narrow gauge road which extends across the county north and south parallel with the Southern Pacific main line, and this connection, in a con siderable measure, is a feeder for Albany. Uesides the railroad connections which Albany has in the operation sA these two systems, it has every advantage of the navigation of the Willamette river. Indeed, die Oregon Pacific, in the absence of other feeders, operates a line oi boa's on the river, drawing the produce for a considerable distance along the banks of tiie stream to Albany for shipment to tide water. The Oregon Kailway A Navigation Company also has a line of steam ers on the river and competes with the other transportation lines doing business at Albany. Thus there i sharp competition in local river and railroad traffic, and Albany business men have the choice of two routes to tide water for all shipments abroad they choose to make the Oregon Pacific to Ya quiiiAbay or the Southern Pacific to Portland. Not content witli these, the citizens of Albany have organized a new company to build a railway to Astoria, at the mouth of the Columbia. Codderable work on the Astoria end ot thi line has already been done, and the indications are favorable for its continuence acrot-s the Coast moun tains to Albany. This would give the city three distinct routes to the seaboard. The Oregon Pacific is now constructed sixty miles east ward from Albany and is rapidly pushing its way through the Cas" cades to eastern connections. There now radiate from this center like the spokes of a wheel, five rauway tracks, besides the lines ol steamers on the river. The fact that so many transpor tation lines converge at this point is proof of its importance. The nieie crossing of two railway tracks is not, of course, significant. ! A ra.lr.iad crosung is not neces- j narily a commercial city any more man a country lour-coiners is: but when lines from widely diver gent points come together and there is a scramble among com peting corporations that leads to a final concentration of interests at a strategic point commerce, it is the strongest evidence that the situa tion is one of more than ordinary i uportance. The important fact that Albany has feeders ramifying the counti y in all directions, col lecting produce and distributing merchandise, shews that it has commercial independence and is not laid under tribute to oppressive monopoly, nor is it suffering from any lack of modern conveniences. Lines of trade converge at Albany because such an arrangement is the most conducive to success and profit. Trade would not flow to Albany if any o.her jwint pre sented greater advantages to the interested people, any more than water will naturally flow up hill; and traffic lines will not be built i where there is no trade to sustain I them. If the concentration of tramJ meaa anything and no one will for a moment doubt that it is significant it indicates that the point selected possesses superior qcalificati' ns from a commercial point of view, and that it com mands eculiar advantages to which the business world is very re isitive. About such jioints, wnere the interchange of commod ities is easy and natural, grow our large cities. To one who examines Albany's prosjiority closely it is app.irent timf. th itv s urowth has not been caused entirely by its being located at a iwint convenient for the ex change of various wares. The pro ductiveness of the surrounding country, of course, is an essential factor, but the ability to utilize aim j classiiy the m mewuai luiui gi volume that Hos lit Irom the pro ducers is also of great importance. To manufacture where the inevita- ; '-V;-.u ;l m:.rket for the I I I 1 I" I I" .11 M It 1 U " " ' I " " . ,. linest p.oductions ana before t ...nrtution cha'ir 8 on co r r.iw mateilais tiae made tlnni le.tr, is one of the features- ot presents itself to ) economy thai evirv community oi varieu - sources. The ability to manu- facture is one of the influences, which, taken in connection ith the traffic advantages of the place, gives Albany a Fecure foundation on which to base a large and rapid growth. Wheat comes into the city and a considerable portion of it is manufactured, the Hour shipped to foreign markets and the coarser products sent back to the producer, or, at any rate, consumed by, the domestic market. Thus with manufactories of wool, wooa, etc., advantages of preparing as fully as jKjssible for the final mar ket are important. The nearest approach to the conservation of the industrial forces brings the surest and most lasting prosperity. THE WASUIMiTOS HTKKfcT Citt.lDE A Correspondent Offeri Some Saltations Upon the Questioi. To thb Editor or tub Herald: The unusual activity in real estate, together with tiie matter of other public enterprises, has re cently somewhat overshadowed the question of the proposed grad ing of Washington street, which is to come before the city """neil as a committee of the v hole next Tuesday evening, but it io a mat ter which deserves thorough inves tigation before any definite action is taken. The streets of the cify ought to be graded and every im provement which tends to ad ance the prosperity of Albany ought to be encouraged, but on the grading of Washington street t:iere is a divideJ opinion as to whether the street ought to be cut down to the grade of First street, or a running grade established, leaving this street as well as those adjoining the west at a slight elevation. Al bany is flat enough now, and this hill, the only one in the city, ought certainly not to be cut down in the resilience portion of the towp west of Washington street. The ques tioiv,then is would it not be well to re-establish the grade on Washing ton street. Cut it down and grade it by all means, but make it a gradual running grade to meet the elevated residence portion on the streets immediately west of it. First Warder. Improving (he Willamette. The government snag Iwat Cor vallis will be started to work at once in the upper Willamette it n announced. She will begin at Harrisburg and come down, clear ing out the snags. In the course of a month the snag boat Willam ette will be put to work towing stone for the revetment work at Corvallis. Then the intention is to keep these two boats upon the upper river, and by scraping and whatever else is necessary, en deavor to keep the channel open to Corvallis at least, and farthur up if possible, for the whole summer season. For this work, including the Co vflliis revetment, some $150,000 available funds are yet re maining from the last appropria tion. Itadlr Kirkeri. Mr. R. N.

The opportunity of witnessing first-class colored minstrel show a is one always appreciated. The Georgia .Minstrel Company,' which will appear at the oera house to morrow evening, is one of the best on the road. The Omaha Ree says of them: "Now that the Georgia Minstrels have gone, it is but fair to say that the unanimous opinion of the very many who at tended their concerts at the Acad emy of Music, has been and is that tiey are a most excellent troupe of reai colored people; gentlemanly in their behavior, pleasing in their performances, and industrious in their efforts to entertain the crowds that thronged lo witness their con certs, which were from first to last marked by such behavior as could not offend the mast fastidious, and bnst.ed with good and jokes that interspersed their songs j and plays.

The council is frequently beset with Detltions allowinir oroDertv owners to construct wooden build ings within the fire limits, and in this connection it is gratifying to ntte tiie action of the council at its last meeting in the adoption of a minority report of the city council to extend the fire limits and to grant no privilege of erecting any woouea ouuoings mmm ruin limits. Albany is now enjoying a steady grewth, and this should be made substantial as far as the city can aid it. The fire limits should be extended rather than dimin ished, and the ordinance oi. the subject should be rigidly enforced. If one citizen is a.lowed to build a wooden building another has the same right. The line must be drawn somewhere, and it should be on the basis of absolute refusal of any erection of wooden buildings within the fue limits. LlS fJillftlY Bllfc!. COIAIIL.
