The Eugene Register is a paper of
different calbre. It favors boosting
for everything in Oregon regardless of
how the vote was on the U. of O. bill,
for Albany, Salem and Corvallis the
same as for others, and favors an excur
; sion to this city in a spirit of good will
1 and harmony. Say, that's sense, and
i is the spirit that counts. Regardless
j of how Linn county voted w'ell bet Al
, bany and Linn county prove as good
: friends to the U. of O. as it has in the
j state, particularly if this kind of policy
is followed.

ALBANY REAL ESTATE AS
AN INVESTMENT.
Dy you know that there is no better
investment in the world than in real
estate, Albany has advantages not to
be had by any other city in the valley,
investments made here in real property
at the present prices will pay a good
rate of interest on the interest on the
investment. The person is blind indeed
who cannot see a population of not less
than fifteen thousand for Albany ten
years hence.
The increase in population will in
crease the value of your property pro
portionately, which means dividends if
you collect rents, and profits if you de
sire to sell.
The host independent man is the
ONE WHO OWNS HIS OWN HOME, you
can never get one cheaper than at the
present time. Nothing better or surer
than Albany real estate. There is no
better way to save money than to in
vest it in Albany property.
If you are looking for a safe invest
ment, or a home for yourself thereby
stnpning that rent leak, then call at my
office and look over the bargains which
I have to offer.
If you bave a piece of city property
you desire to sell, you should list it with
this office for a quick sale.
