GROWTH OP ALBANY.
The Record of a Busy Seasoi
of Improvements.

The treat movement of business
men, capitalists, farmers and me
chanics, from the older portions of
the Eastern states to the rich and
growing West has brought upon
this state an era of rapid develop
inent and improvement. Durin"
this period Albany litis nt been
idle. Tliis city within the past fire
j ears nus given more assistance to
outside enterprises ilian any other
city of Oregon; and what is tlu
result? Albany i making rapid
progress, and is fast developing
into one of the state's chief busi
ness and railroad centers.
The most important factor tend
ing to promote the immediate
growth of the city is to be attrib
uted to the 1 event purchases and
enterprises set on foot by the Ore
gon Pacific railroad company,
t'hi company having put chased
the Albany and Santiani canal, the
citr water works, the Magnolia
(louring mills and about 1V.0 acres
of !and adjoining this city, also
sosr.e of the best businesb property
in the city, propose to promote the
growth oi Albany in a manner
similar to what the Northern Pa
cific Co. has done for Tacoma.
They have already commenced a
system of extensive improvements. !
Among these is the mcornoratiou
of the Albany Canal, Water .Trans
portation and Lighting Company
with a capital stock of $300,000,
the objects of which are to Riipply
the city of Albany with water, gas,
electric power and light, to operate
gas and electrical works and fac
tories. In this connection it is
announced that the company. will
construct an electric motor line
next sea3on, connecting the busi
ness portion of the city with their
lands in the suburbs, which to
gether with the- street car line
already running will afford a first
class Bervice. The company has
also purchased a $20,000 corner
upon which they will erect next
season a fine brick block for their
offices. This will be followed by a
big hotel and the establishment of
the company's car and machine
shops.
There is nothing speculative or
fanciful about this. These im
provements are already underway,
and the city i3 steadily spreading
her borders. Several fine brick
buildings and not less than IJOOnew
residences have been added to the
city during the past summer, yet
there are no vacant houses any
where, lteal estate has steadily
advanced in price, and outside
capitalists finding the investments
sure have been making money by
purchasing Albany dirt.
This year tho citizens of Albany
subscribed $23,000 toward the erec
tion of woolen mills here, and as a
result the machinery is now being
placed in the finest woolen mill in j
the state, and within a month 150 1
busy hands will be employed in j
turning into cloth the wool clip of 1
the Willamette Valley, and a few
month's later the wool clip of!
Eastern Oregon, brought here over j
the Oregon Pacific railroad.
At the rate the city is extending I
her residences into the new addi-i
tions the census of 1S90 should i
find not far short of 10,000 popula- i
tion in Albany., and with the j
present active work toward com- j
pleting the Oregon Pacific railroad 1
to an eastern terminus, making it j
the shortest transcontinental line,
tlu building of the Albany it A-:
tori. road giving us another direct
outlet to th sea, and the complo-1
ticn of the enterprises now in J
cotirso of construction in less than
tire years Albany should have a
population of over 20,000, and en
joying the advantages of a great
metropolitan city.
A thousand men are now at work
pushing the Oregon Pacific east
ward. During tho past year Al
bany's trade from the country east
of the city adjacent to the line of
this road has increased more than
10O per cent. Extending from Al
bany eastward is the finest farm
ing land in th valley, and trade in
this entire country, extending east
from Albany to the Cascade range
of mountains, and across them into
the rich grain-fields, wool-growing
and stock producing region of East
ern Oregon, must come to Albany.
When tlii road is completed to an
eastern connection Albany will be
able to command a large share of
the trade of the country east of the
city for a distance of perhaps 300
railes and when it is stated that,
whenever the proper times comes
there is tho money in Albany to
put in the necessary houses to con
trol this trade, the assertion is not
in any way a wild one. There are
a number of Albany's merchants
who now control sufficient capital
to embark in the wholesale trade
n the most extensive scale, and
with tho unexcelled opportunities
enjoyed by Albany for getting the
most favorable rates from the rail
road eompanies thero is not a bet
ter situated place ri the entire
valley lor the establishment of
large wholesale houses.

also said that Eastern capitaiuts
who are interested in the mines
propose with the opening of spring
to begin the erection in this city of
immense smelting works, "the
original cost of which will be about
$30,000. Several Albany gentle
men are also interested in the
movement. This wil- prove one of
the greatest enterprises yet, and is
but another of Albany's progres
sive steps toward becoming a great
city.

Not much is being said in regard
to state politics and but very little
more in regard to the city, though
the city election will occur two
weeks irom to-morrow. Not many
candidates for state ollices have as
yet summoned the necessary
amount of courage to make their
exact desires known, but the atten

THE ALBANY AUD ASTORIA HAIL WAY
The Company Has .Capita! Backing It and
the Bead Will Be Bail!.
The Hkkai.d a few days ago
published an item stating that tlie
Albany & Astoria railroad com
pany has purchased the entire
plant of Searle & Dean, the Oregon
Pacific contractors who failed
and that the plant is suflicient for
use by a force of 1000 men, and
would be used in the work of con
structing the road frotn this city to
Astoria.
The Salem Statesman published
the item, and in commenting upon
it says: "Now while Albany is
making a show of an attempt to
connect herself by rail with the
sea, wiiat is balem uoing: fcne pi-unm.

a railroad to the sea if she will ; Eph Cameron, of Corvallis.' for a
go about with a will and determin-!
ation ; but if she waits for the road
to come any way, it may be some
time getting here."
There seems to be more backing
to the Albany A Astoria railway
enterprise than is generally sup
posed. Mayor J. L. Cowan of this city,
who is president of the company,
was interviewed yesterday concern-,
ing the plans of the mad.
"There is considerable connected
with the road," he said., "that I
am not at liberty to make public;
but the plant of Searles t Dean
was purchased to be used upon the
road, and the work of construction
will be commenced before the
people of Albany aie fairly aware
of it.
"The company has plenty of
capital backing it," Mr. Cowan
said, "and the road will be built.
An enterprise of this magnitude
cannot be accomplished all at once
it will require time, and the im
mediate work of construction will
depend something upon the
weather, but the Albany and As
toria road is an assured fact, and
the undertaking is upon a basis
that will ultimately result, in giving
Albany connection by rail with the
seaport of Astoria."
Civil Engineer W. B. Barr will
leave Monday for Astoria to engage
in surveying the remainder of the
route between Tillamook and
Astoria. Some of the Astoria rail
way men are deeply interested in
the Albany & Astoria road, and
the people of that city are desirous

MINING INTERESTS.
Important Work That is Now Be
ing Rapidlj Pushed.
ALBANY'S MINING COMPANIES,
8melting Works for The Santiani District
Present oatloak and Development ProsO
poets for the Fatore Bright.
The miuing interests of this portion
of the state are principally centered
in the Santiani Mining District, and
the present activity and development
there are highly satisfactory. A
gentleman wall posted in mining
affairs, iu speaking of these mines says
that "here is more than twenty square
miles of country intersected by hun
dreds of woll-detined ledges, all bear
ing some of the precious metals.
Much of the way these ledges are so
close to each other that you are
scarcely out of sight of one Uktil you
are on another, and in richness of ore
will compare favorably with any dis
trict on this coast; and as for wealth
of vein, I have been familiar with the
mines of Arizona, New Mexico, Col
orado and Utah, and I have never
seen as wide veins in any other mining
district. Bear in mind, this is only
the surface indications; beyond that
no man knows. The wide and clearly
defined lode, the long distance it can
be traced, the direction they run, the
formation of the surrounding rock
and the general surface of the ouuutiy,
all indicate a strong and rich mineral
belt. There lias as yet been uo devel
opment of any of the best lodes to
more than indicate what ilie possi
bilities are."
Through the summer, work has
been pushed on various claims with
more or less achievement as the cir
cumstances would admit.
The Albany Mining and Milling Co.
have kept a force of men at work
upon tkeir ten or more different lodes
in the district, pushing in tunnels aud
shafts as fast as possible. A ton of
ore has been taken from the Lincoln
lode aud packed to Catesville, the
nearest railroad etatior, and shipped
to San Francisco, to make a working
test. The ore has already passed
through this city and will leave Ya
quina Bay on the next steamer, 011
the 1'Jtli inst. Mr. A. llalverson
their superintendent is now iu this
city laying in winter supplies, and
will return to the mines in a tew days
with a force of men to keep up the
work daring the entire winter,
The Golden City Miuing Company,
also an Albany compauy, have been
pushing work upon their claims with
equal energy, and are developing rich
prospects.
The Galena Miuing Company, a
Portland company have pushed their
tunnel in 530 feet and have just
reached the ledge, and although they
have not yet had a working test
made, tiiRy are confident that they
have struck it rich. Their secretary
passed up to the mine this week and
jocularly remarked that "the boys
thought they had cotten a whole
United States treasury, but he guessed
it was only a National Bank or two."
The Canal For'"' Co., also a Portland
outfit, are pushing in tunnels with
great energy having several from 'JO
to 200 feet in length and a quantity
of ore out. They are now having
their ore tested to determine what
kind of machinery is required for its
successful working. There are several
private claims that are being pros
pected that show rich ore. The Red
Bull mine at a depth of 12 feet shows
a veic. 4 leet wide, aud rich enough to
pay lor packing out ou horses aud
give a line protic. This mine is now
in litigation and therefore laid by.
The Gold Mountain and Dry Gulch
company, with headquarters at Salem,
have just completed the survey of a
flume, nearly twenty-hve miles long,
to hrin." water into dry gulch to placer j
mine it out. They also have pur- j
I chased the old waguii road from the j
; head of King's Prairie to the tuines I
! ;imi have a force of men at vrk put- j
ting it 1:1 repair. Last wetit they
bought from Dun Smith at Gatesville
f.ixty-enjht acres of land aud intend
to erect thereon smelting and reduc
tion works.
Taking it altogether the miuing
outlook for the Santiani mine3is most
promising aud undoubtedly ere
another year the outlook of these
mines will make a considerable figure
iu the mining ttatistics of the county.
COAL MKASfRKS
In various parts of Liuu county
and the territory contiguous of Al
bany, tine prospects for paying veins
of coal have been found, and in the
near future a good healthy industry
in tkat line will spring up to add its
millions to the general prosperity of
the country.

Ever thicker, thicker, thicker ;
Froze the ice on lake and river,

Fell the covering snow and drifted
Through the forest round tke Tillage."
