Boosting Character.
It is always a pleasing thing to sea a
city progress, increasing in population,
with new residences and industries ap
pearing everywhere. But there are
other things. It is just as important
for a city to improve in character, and
no better boosting is done than that
which looks to the betterment of the
morals a city. One of the best rec
ommendations of a city has is that it
has some splendid people in it. The
more splendid people in a city the bet'
ter. Character ,is what makes them
People selecting a town for a home
inquire about the character of the peo'
pie the first thing, and with reason.
They want good associations for them
selves and their children. They may
not be religious at all, but when it
comes to companions they are looking
for them with character for their child'
ren. No one wants a son to run with
bums. Therefore boost for a better as
well as for a bigger Albany.
Getd Olt Easy.
Mr. Weyerhau8er, one of the richest
men in the U. S. objects to an assess
ment of $16 an acre on his Linn county
holdings of timber land, which could
not be bought for that by cocBiderable,
Mr, Weyerhauser should not kick. He
is well treated. Besides paying taxes
on his timber holdings Mr. Weyer-
houser should be made to pay an income
tax on his enormous income of several
million dollars a year. This is some
thing favored in the democratic plat
form, and it is a splendid thing. Ten
to one Mr. Weyerhouser is doing his
level best for Mr. Taft. Rich men
have no business kicking at taxes.
There is hardly one in the U. S. who
pays as high taxes as he should. The
country needs an income tax with a
graduated scale so intense that the
man with an income of a million dollars
will pay about four times as much as
the one with $500,000, and so on down.
Face the music, M r. Weyerhouser.
Dinner Pails.
Why base a campaign on falsehoods.
The Oregonian in a caricature says the
kind of dinner pail the democratic party
ofTers is full of wind. It offers one full
of "grub". The republican policy is a
full dinner pail for the millionaire. Mr.
Bryan is for the people. The republi
can party in two years has kept full
90,000 more dinner pails for office hold
ers, coming out of the pockets of the
peoplei It hs increased the expenses
of the government to the enormous
sum of a billion dollarB a year, which
the people pay out of money that ought
to furnish grub for the dinner pail. It
has driven small industries out of busi
ness by legislation in the interest of
the trusts, and the dinner pails of the
discharged men have had to take care
of themsolvos. How silly for reputable
newspapers, even when steeped in pro
duce, to make such assertions.
Ofrlelnia Should Nut Butt In.
If one official has no business to en
gage in politics another has not. If it
is propor for the president to butt in it
is for postmasters and others of the
lesser lights in politics. A congress
man has no more right to take sides in
an election than any one else. As a
matcer of fact no man in oflico should
interfere in an olection. As soon as he
begins tho duties of his oflice ho is the
servant of all the people regardless of
politics, just as much of one as another,
paid to attend to the duties of his ollico
Dot for his party, but for his people;
not just for the pcoplo who voted for
him, but for all others just as much.
' Gov. Chambcrlainlhas been raked up
hill and down for not taking a hand in
tho election; but he has displayed good
judgment and taken the proper course,
l'rcsidcnt Roosevelt should have done
tho same thing; but he lucked the
moral courage.
A Great Farming Country
F. II. Scriber, of Wisconsin, a big
slock man recently in Oregon said:
"The Willamette Valley seems to be
about the finest farming country in the
whole United .States." Mr. Soilier
was undoubtedly correct. Altogether
it is prob ible the vullcy is the beat
farming country, when the soil and cli
mato are considered together. A great
improvement in tho market adds to the
value of tho valley as a funning coun
try. The versatility of the producing
quality of our farms dues great things
f jr the business hero. Almost anything
an be raiseJ here, and raised well.
Money in the banks is not idle money.
Tho Oregonian ought to know this.
Most of it represents active business
conditions, coming and going continu
ally. Bank money as a rule is turned
ovor and over. The clearing houso
figutes of the big cities spoak for this
fact. The more monoy in the banks
the greater the business of the com
munity. . I
Saturday Night Thoughts.
About the same old election report
this Saturday night, necessary in a
mention of the events of the week.
Mr. Bryan has been holding his own,
perhaps gaining. The republican as
sociated press reports bets in favor of
Taft. Mr. Bryan reports chances in
favor of Bryan. There you are. This
week the Democrat received an arti
cle about two columns long, from a
Lana Co. minister, too long for the
condensed columns of 'his paper, giv'
ing pretty conclusive reasons why
Christian people should vote for Bryan,
a splendid representation of Christian
manhood; while Mr. Taft rejects Christ.
"While Governor of the Philippines,"
says the correspondent, "he is reported
to have participated in the betting
races on Sundays and to have never
turned down his glasses," and numer
ous other things to the point.
Mr. Apathy certainly has been in
Linn county. Two public meetings
have been held during the week by re
publicans, with a total attendance by
actual count of approximately 125.
Perhaps the democrats would have had
no more. It takes some one with an
extra reputation to draw these days of
Gcneial Apathy.
Nevertheless there will probably be a
big vote in Linn county
This week a real U. S. Senator has
been in the city, a wealthy gentleman,
who, it is said, will pay the highest
rent the coming year for a Washington
residence, of any U. S. Senator. Mr.
Bourne's visit here was supposed to
have been non-political. Really it is
immaterial. If he will take a live in
terest in some Albany wants the poli
tics may take caie of themselves. Po
litically Mr. Bourne's influence is
financial.
A new industry Jwas started in Al
bany during the week, a fruit cannery.
It has a backing jwhich will mean its
success. It is needed here, for Albany
is a fruit center of importance. A good
cannery will increase the fruit and
vegetables a cannery is after. Albany
is going ahead in the kind of manner
that suits, steadily and reliably.
The papersare full of the emmanual
movement, given as something new.
But it is notjnew at all. It is about
1900 years old. It is simply the Christ
life, that's all.ICun it be possible that
men have not discovered before that
the very essence of Christianity, tho
real article, is kindness and that genu
ine optimism acts upon the body as
well as upon the mind, in different de
grees. But there is a golden mean in
the construction of this, and men will
do well not togot excited and claim too
much physically, for it will take sur
geons to' set legs and medicines and
manipulations torcgulate the system
Nevertheless a life full of sunshine is
an immense medicine.
This week there has been a lecture
along mysterious lines, into depths that
seem strange, but which in skilful
hands become plain. So it is. Tricks
beyond comprehension are as clear as
ico made by the Albany Butter and
Produce Co., when explained. Much in
nature is that way. We cannot under
stand, but when revealed there is no
mystery. What marvelous things in
the telephone, and the wireless tele
graphy, perhaps after all, they are
plain as the tricks of tho magician
when understood.
The merchant should display kindness
in his treatment of his customers, as a
business proposition, nccorJing to the
consensus of opinion of prominent men
of Corvallis and Albany. So should
men in every other business, the law
yer, doctor, editor, minister, mechanic,
day laborer. It is a good rule for
everybody, men and women, boys, and
girls.
The Oregonian is tho most purtizan
paper anywhere in the U. S. Some
times it cluims to be independent, but
it is abjectly tho opposite. Sometimes
it gets personally mad at some member
nf its nnrtv imil stnna him viiinimlv
! when it looks as if it is a little inde
pendent. But that is not independence.

A Ranier man is said to have bet

If so he will undoubtedly lose his mon

A Seattle man is being roasted liv

CHARACTERS.
"The Honeymooneis," Geo. Mr. Co
han's newest and musieal comedy suc
cess which comes to Albany Tuesday
night ran all last summer in New York
at the Amsterdam Theatre playing
throughout to capacity houses at $2
prices. A summer run in New York is
the hardest test to which a theatrical
production can be subjected and the
fact that "The Honeymooners" made
the meat brilliant record of recent years
is sufficient proof of its excellence.
"The Honeymooners" presents some '
ati using features of life in the village
of Tigerville, Vermont. The cast runs
the entire gamut of town chacters and
the satire is keen but kindly.
A Successful Concert
Prof. Palmer and Misses Hansen,
Bluckwell and Felenius, of the conserv
atory of music, returned this noon from
McMinnvile, where they gave a concert
last night to a tacked house, a great
success. Under the splendid manage
ment of Rev. Williams the concert was
well advertised, the Telephone Register
practically devoting a page to it, with
all the pictures of the faculty and that
of the Presbyterian church of McMinn

treatment received at the hands of the
cultured people of McMinnville.
