Complete Assortment. , Woodworth Drug Company Hie lihrary The first year of the Albany library makes a splendid showing for it. With about 800 volumes in the library nearly 7,000 books were taken out and almost 9,000 visitors were at the library. That shows an average of ten persons read ing each book in the library. As a matter of fact some of the books were read a good many more times than that. While the record is not made up of course fiction led, and yet books of solid character were called for, enough to show a good taste here for high class literature. The library has proven itself a splen did thing for the city. It should be given a Carnegie building, and an in- i come from the city of $1,000 a year ac- cording to the cost of the building. The library is considered a part of city government everywhere and deserves . to be. This is one of the problems this i city will have to settle. We can have i a $10,000 Carnegie library any time the 1 city government says so, all that is necessary being a guaranty of the $1,000 income for running expenses. j The west should be up with the east in its suppprt of the public library. . Will Albany be equnl to the occasion. I In the meantime our citizens should be liberal in their financial support of the library. The President's Trip j Today Presidet Taft began his west ern trip, a twelve thousand mile trip over tho United States to shake hands with his fellow citizens. This is a splendid thing for the President to do, and it is proper for the government to see that it is done and to pay the bills if necessary. Formerly this was not done and many presidents were never seen by their constituents, few being willing to pay their own bills. Here after Uncle Sam will meet the expenses, and it may be guessed that the presi dents will all take the ride. Orcgonians will be glad of the privilege and so far as possible will see the big fellow go by, I hearing him if possible, if not getting a glimpse of him, so that in future years they may be able to say they actually saw President Taft. Mr. Taft and party will be in Albany about 9 o'clock at ! night, and no doubt will come out on ' the rear platform and wave his hand at the hub. j This is a non e racking age.
