Fellow Citizens of Linn County:,
I am here today to address you as che
oldest living apDle grower of Southern
Marion county and the oldest well
wisher to the city of Albany, being the
last living comrade of the brave broth
ers, Walter and Thomas Monteith, who
planted the seed of your cir.y af cer doing
soldiers duty in the first Cayuse war of
1847 8.
Being among the first to 'help give
Oregon right to the name of the "land
of big red apples" in the mining camps
of the coast, I congratulate the men of
Albany and Linn county for this effort
to demonstrate that big red apples are
not a product limited to any locality of
Western Oregon. From the tide wash
of the ocean to 5000 feet above it on
the west shpes of the Cascades is
apple growing land. It is the men of
Hood River and Medford that have
spiead the fam? of those localities. It
is not yel known where in Eastern Ore
gon npples can not be grown. It is
only limited by water supply. In fact
that is the only limit up the west side
of the Rockey mountains.
I am here to press upon the attention
of enterprising men the needof cooper
ation in getting a double track electric
line 40 mi'es easr from Detroit to Black
Butte, on Dechutes Plains. J. MINTO.

Booklets and Souvenirs Have Ar-,
rived.
The much talked about, long antici
pated booklet under the Harriman con
tract arrived this morning and 25,000
of them will be sent broadcast over the
United States and the rest of the world.
The booklet is one of the finest issued,
beautifully illustrated, covering not
only Albany and its industries and ad
vantages, but the surrounding country.
The cover is a good one, showing a gen
eral view of Albany with the bridge in
the foreground, with apples and grape
in the setting, and a good looking
woman to add tone to it.
The little Barnes souvenir folder is
also here, one of the neatest things
ever issued on Albany.
Our people should get copies of these
and hustle them eastward, genuine

'HOME
COMING DAY.
All day yesterday crowds viewed the
splendid d'splxy of apples at the fair.
Salem particularly did itself proud,
bringing a record crowd here. But
after Salem had gone in the even
ing the apple fair room was packed
just the same.
On account of the Christian church
being used the exercises in the evening
were held at the fair, on the platform
arranged for the purpose. Manager

' point on the westward star of empire,
nhowing the trend nf the times, and
Tom Rich rdson spoke on the apple as
the coming gr at power in this valley,
the raising of which in the right way
cannot be overdone. The Oregon apple
