WHAT LINN DOES.
The assessment of Linn county is
nearly four times as much as that of
Benton county, and, therefore, "this
county pays nearly four times as
much towards the support of the
splendid1 O. A. C, -which more than
anything else is building Corvailis in
to a fine city. Albany also pays as
much as Lane county does towards
the support of the U. O., and nearly
as much as Salem towards the sup
port of the state intitutions. It is a
part of the business. It is all right.
Such tilings have to be just that way.
There is a point, though,, and that is
the cities where such institutions are
located have no right lo arrogate to
themselves all the benefits arising
from tliem, for they belong to the
whole state. It is a pleasing fact to
notice that the instructors apprerinte
this fact, particularly in the O. A. C.
where splendid work all over Ore-
gon is being done by them in the ad-
vancemcnt of the interests of the pco-(
pic, and they display a liberal spirit
in helping, wherever it is possible.

MORE ABOUT TAINTED MONEY
It will never cease to come up, this
old question of Rockefeller's tainted
money. Every once in a while some
one who can't get any notoriety any
other way jumps up and shouts that
he doesn't want any of the' infamous
tainted money of the millionaire. !
t:...,i ...,'. j .r r, -
J. 'unled or untainted the Democrat is
mighty glad tp see the money divert- I
cd into decent channels and used for i
'good purposes. It is not in favor of
I going into partnership with the taint;
! hutl it is in favor of -all the Rockefcl-1
; lcr money being secured for good pur-!
! poses in the world. The good Lord i
. will take care of the part of giving !
credit to Rockefeller, He is never I
fooled. Men are.
' It would be a good thing for the j
country if a hundred million dollars j
of the Rockefeller pelf ccv.ld be ued '
for the good of mankind, and the
' taint part will take care of itself,
There is too much hair-splitting on
such things by the ministry of tJie
country, not all of it, but, by some,
j many being extremists on all such
.things.
OUR BOOSTER LITERATURE.
Albany people should take a spe- j
cial pride in sending out the new
booster literature. just received bv tile !
... T, ' ,
Albany Commercial Club. 1 lie plan
is. to have this sent where it will do
the most good, making everv one i
count, and hence the railroad will
have nothing to do with the distribu
tion of the booklets, the policy being
to regulate this entirely within the
club, getting the literature to people
actually interested and not waste it
by throwing it promiscuously over the
country. There has been too much
of that in the past, and the result was
that the club soon run short of matter
for inquirers. It is proper to run this
in a business way the same as other
things.
SHOULD ENLARGE.
A special election should be held
for enlarging the boundaries of the
city. How much the enlargement I
should be is a question over which
people wil differ. But there should I
be an extension, ami people in the J
suburbs should be friendly to it. It .
should not go into the farming dis-irk-t,
but should take in the sections j
close in. and particularly the open j
tract south of the di-pot. Wright's ad- j
dition and a ft w othi-r-. Albany needs !
these in its business, and those who i
have the good of the city at heart j
should give the move a liberal sup
port in the inicre-t of oroi;ress. j

Although Shriners are not Masons their,
ceremonials and meetings are entirely
dilfereut and opposite in ewy way to
Masonic meetings.
The Masonic rites are most solemn, :
religious and sublime while 'with the
Shriner as soon as he dons the red fez. !
the badge of the order, he becomes !
jolly and all smiles. Unlike many other
orders the Masons have no insurance or
other protective features, being purely :
fraternal. The order of the Mystic;
Shrine is entirely for mutual help, good
fellowship and entertainment. The
members of the order are scattered
over the entire known world, there be-'
ing over 325,000 in North America
alone. Temnles of the Shrine are lo
cated in the larger cities only but tbev
frequently make pilgrimages to hold
ceremonial sessions in me Biiiuner
cities that are especially active along
masonic lines, and of that number Al-
bany is one noted among the traternity
in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and
California.
i The principal reason temples of the
Mystic Shrine are usually found in
. larger cities is the expense necessary
I to hold a ceremonial session which
. usually costb from $2000 up.
I Al Kader of Portland has about 1700
members, of which about 30 reside in
Linn county. The largest Shrine is
Medinah Temple at Chicago with a
membership of over 8000, Alleppo of
Boston is second with nearly as many
and Mecca of New York is
third with
more than 7000.
