It Is an Important Move.
The paving of the streets of Albany
has been begun, that is, the first for
mal steps have been taken. This is
one of the most important undertak
ings that have occurred in. Albany.
There have been others, but this one
will mean much for Albany us a city.
Once started it will mean that pave-
ii -i u ta,;,,..-
ment will prevail here as an institution.
gradually reaching out over the city.
As in all things the city should be tem- !
perate in this, not going to extremes, .
with any wild desire of being the most i
paved city of its size in the world, but
pegging away, a little each year, ac
cording to the means of the city and I
our citizens, in such a way as not to
cause any hardship upon either.
Financially it is a big thing, also, for
t is said that it always increases the
value of property much more than
the
cost.
The Democrat hopes to see Albany
proceed sensibly in thrs as in other
affairs, along clean lines, without any
taint, and free from charges of graft,
so common in the advancement of the
improvements of a city. This will un
doubtedly be the program. Altogether
Albany is having a good reputation.
A Little Athletic Talk.
The Alco Club of this city is promot
ing athletics along liboral lines and m
what appears to be a sane way. There
is sane and insane athletics, by the way.
Sane athletics are a splendid thing,
. doing much good. Insane athletics,
' the going to extremes, does more harm
than good, me aico system seems 10
be all right, and promises to do a gooa
thing. The elfort is going to be to
'atitution and it costs a regular fee to
fnjoy to privileges the management
is permitting classes of students to
joy the privileges of the splendid gym
nasium, by paying only the fee for in
struction, a very low price for so much,
giving the studonta of the city a gym
nasium as much as it a part of the
school system of the city, with an ex
perienced and careful instructor in
charge of the work. The Democrat
takes pleasure in commending the prcs-
ent piun
Vte the Gnilows.
The gallows down at the stato prni-
tentiary needa to be used. It has been
idle too much. Two hangings are re
ported out of ninety-six cases. That is
a poor example of a protection against
erime. ' Murder should be punished. If
the law provides for hanging, then
hang; if for life imprisonment, then
imprison for life; but do something.
The public is weary of guilty men go-!
ing free over technicalities and puerile '

it is one of example in the interest of
