The Year 1907.
The last day of another year, 1907.
has come, and the events of the year
are being revised. Standing out con-
spicuously will be the panic which be
gan the 30th of October, like a thunder
cloud out of a clear sky. The year had
been a remarkably prosperous one.
Along all lines a big business was re
ported, particularly along the line of
extravagancies, showing plenty of
money for all manner of things. This 1
has all been cnanged. Anew era has
b0un-
There have been the customary num-
ber of wrecks and disasters. These1
always occur.
This northwest country has been par-:
licularly favored, and it is doubtful if
any section of the United States at
this time feels the financial disturbance 1
ns little I
D , . -i ,u.i.
Perhaps of the northwest no place
has handled the situation better than
Albany. Things have been made to
run with great Bmoothness, due to
careful and reliable business methods
..ju,..j....f
and the good sense of our people.
Albany has made good progress this
year. Several improvements have
beed made of importance. Three new
, . . , - .. , .
bricks have gone up,a furniture factory
and flour mill are being established and
some good residences have been built.
This city is not making any blow or
bluster, but with its splendid railroad
and business advantages it is bound to
be a prosperaus inland city.
The outlook for 1908 is certainly good,
and without any hired boosters, de-
pending upon the resources of the city
and Us well established advantages the
city is bound to progress, and some day
it will have its DAY.

"Why Girls Leave Home" at the
I Opera House.
j "Why Girls Leave Home" in an im
portant question. At the opera house
New Year's night will be presented for
the first time in the West, a drama in
. domestic life dealing with the question
. and setting forth from one standpoint
at least, the answer. The play is a
dramatization by Fred Summerfield of
; a story dealing with the friction of
domestic environment, characteristic of
' so many homes, and the effect upon the
'sensitive nature of the sister and
, daughter of the household. The scenes
are naturaily drawn avoiding melo
drama s et leaving nothing wanting to
the pathos, incident to all suffering,
mental or phjsical. The presenting
company is claimed to be one of the
- best that is touring the country, and
the scenic investiture is very elaborate.
