EDITORIAL NOTES.
One of the essentials for Albany
, is the paving ot the business
streets, and this matter is being
taken up in earnest by the business
men and will be assuredly put
through next season. The only
point to discuss is the quality of
pavement to be used, in regard to
ecop.omy and durability, as thd
question of paving is already
definitely settled in the minds of
our principal business men.
Taking soii, climate, salubrity,
and healthfulness into considera
tion there is no spot on the green
earth so desirable for human habi- J
tation as the Willamette valley.
Her growing and prosperous cities,
of which Albany is the thriving
center, attest to the general
knowledge upon this point, and the
diffusion of that knowledge will
bring much larger prosperity in
the near future.
Albany's prosperity is marked
and known all over the land, and
general attention is directed to it
from all parts of the country.
Letters of inquiry and applications
for information are constantly be
ing made. The facta are becoming
broadly known that Linn county
is one of the best counties in the
state, and Albany, the chief city
of the central Willamette valley.
The purpose of using electricity
in public executions, instead of
hanging, continues to be a topic
before the people, although it has
as yet receive 1 no actual example.
New York passed the law but op
position delayed its application,
and now the law is before the su
preme court for a decision upon its
constitutionality. Meanwhile tests
are being made of the methods and
mechanical appliances. The Tri
bune says that the results of the
tests made with the electrical ma
chines that will be used for exe
cuting murderers, in case the court
of appeals decides that the new
law 14 constitutional, appear to
furnish conclusive evidence that
death will be produced instan
taneously and painlessly. It is a
question that can or.lv be settled
by experiment; and the experl
ments made with two animals on
Tuesday were entirely successful.
The contention of the opponents of
the law is that death by electricity
ia cruel and unusual. Accidental
deaths by this agent are no longer
unusual., and the evidence tends to
prove that they are free from pain,
suffering or cruelty.
The fact that protection lowers
prices instead of increasing them,
was emphatically asserted by
Washington and Jefferson, by
Jackson, Webster, and Clay, and
their foresight has been amply
proven by the results. The Econ
omist, in commenting on this
matter says that in the face of
these irrefutable facts, backed by
the price-lists of every trade, and
against the judgment and experi
ence of the country's wisest and
most gatriotic statesmen, the free
trade advocates of to-day assert
and repeat the falsehood that the
amount of duty is added to the
nrlrr. Tint linn of what is im-
price, not aione 01 wnai is im
ported, but ot all corresponaing
demestic products. English and
American makers have quoted the
same prices for steel rails within
the p&st month with the tariff
standing at $17 per ton, while
through a long list of fabrics gen
erally worn by the people the same
relative fact3 exist. Certain lines
of cotton goods are now exported,
and American calicoes now find a
sale in English centers of cotton
manufacture. This could not be
if it were true that the amount of
duty is added to the price of the
home-made article. In no other
country in the world can the
workingman get a better suit cf
clothes for a week's labor than
right here in the United States.
-fhoro the fro trade proacher tells

The relapsing of fanning inter
ests in the New Kngland states
forjis one of the topics of the day
that calls out considerable com
ment. The- opinion seems to be
largely prevalent that such a con
dition exists, but the extent of it
is probably greatly exaggerated,
and the cause probably mainly lies
in the rapid dev elopement of the
West by immigration from the
Kast. Edward Atkinson says that
a large portion of the farmers of
New England buy western train
Will any one who treats the al
leged decline in the agriculture of
New England please inform me
how the farmers of New England
get the money to pay for the grain?
The last time 1 looked into this'
subject I found that there had been
a steady increase in the value of
the agricultural products of Massa
chusetts, although for many years
prices had on the whole been
diminishing. It therefore follows
that what has occurred is not to be
named depression in agriculture;
rather it is a change in the method
corresponding to the change which
has occurred in manufacturing.
Dairy products and hay remain
profitable to those who farm with
brains. Market-gardening pros
pers under intelligent direction.
In many cases even large farms
are cultiuated on the intensive
rather than the extensive system,
and may be assumed to be profit
able since they continue and in
crease their products.
