ALBANY COLLEGE BULLETIN
REPRINTS COURT DECISION
Full Text of Opinion of Supreme
Court of Oregon Is Published
in College.
In Ihe Albany College Bulletin,
mailed yesterday to those interested
in Ihe college, the decision in the re
cent supreme court case affecting the
title to the present college campus is
published in full.
The decision is too voluminous to
publish in full in these columns, but
we reprint belu'w the introduction to
the decision as prepared by college
aulhoritics:
"It has always been the opinion of
Ihe writer that a Christian business
man should avoid litigation, liven
more should a college closelv con
nected with a church. Nevertheless,
Christian business men are forced in
to litigation; so also arc colleges from
time lo time.
"Albany College recently brought
Sllil 'to (iiiel lille' to ils present
campus. Less legally phrased, the
lustitulion desired to know whether
Ihe present campus, inadequate for
the best development of ihe college,
could be sold and Ihe proceeds de
villed lo Ihe purchase of a new
campus or lo endowment o build
lugs. Suil was instituted. In the
Circuit Court Judge Gallow.av decid
ed thai Ihe deed gave Ihe college Ihe
properly for college uses with the
inslruclions thai it must never pass
to any ol her religious denoniinalio'n
and that Ihe proceeds must be devot
ed lo college uses. Judge Calloway's
decision was counted by lawyers
very able document.
"Oil Tuesday, March 11, the su
preme court of Oregon, Ihe opinion
being bv Justice C. J. Mcllride. af
firmed Judge Calloway's decision."

SULZER DECLARES WAR
More than 150 newspaper ed
itors from all parts of the State
cheered their approval when, at
the banquet ' of the Democratic
l-.uitorial Association of New
York State, Governor. Sulzer
reiterated that he was State lead
er and announced a declaration of
principles in regard to the distri
hution of patronage he would fol
low in treating with Tammany
lioss Murphy.
It was a strong address and is
an open declaration' of war
against Tammany Hall by the
new Democratic (jovernor.
The Governor said in part:
"The record of that which I
have done thus far is straight. I
shall fight on to keep the record
ol my administration straight, l
was tne candidate ot a united par
ty and an unshackled convention.
"Sorn after I became Governor
I realized the deplorable condi
tions in the State affairs and
promptly made up my mind what
to do. The cause was the cause
of the Slate, and I determined to
shirk no responsibility in my ef
forts to secure in the public ser
vice a greater economy and more
efficiency; to uproot official cor
ruption; to eliminate graft, and to
raise Higher the standard of civic
righteousness and official integ
rity. "What I have done thus far
speaks for itself, and I have only
begun. No man realizes more
than I do the obstacles that are
put m the way. But I see clear
ly the right, and have concluded
to go forward without hesitation,
and with the determination to do
my whole duty fearlessly, regrad
less of the political future, of per
sonal consequences.
"As the Governor, I knew, from
the experience of the past, that in
order to succeed 1 had to be the
Governor in fact as well as in
name. 1 have never been an agent,
and I never will be. No man, no
party, and no organization can
make me a rubber stamp. 1 am
the Governor. Let no man doubt
that."

BRICKLAYING ON CIGAR
STORE STARTED TODAY
Will Be Most Modern and Up-to-Date
Establishment of
the Kind in Valley.
Brick masons commenced their
work this morning on the splendid
little building .which is being erected
on First street across from the First
National bank by Peter Paulus for
M. McAlpine.
The material being used in its con
struction is red and white pressed
brick. The building will be two
stories high and the tront will be con
structed entirely of white pressed
urictc.
It is planned that the place will be
ready for occupancy within the next
two months, at which time Mr. Mc
Alpine will remove his present cigar
store and billiard and pool hall to
the new location. The place will be
modern and up to date in every re
spect and new equipment, including
new pool and DilliarU tables have been
ordered for the new establishment.
It is understood that Mr. McAlpine
micnus to install modern bowling al
leys on the second floor, and when
fully completed the new place will
represent one of the most modem

It is rumored that unon the va

by McAlpine a similar concern will
establish its business there. However,
this could not be authoriatively cou

ADDRESSES CLUB
Preaches Interesting Gospel on
"Good Roads" Before Local
Commercial Body.
DRAINAGE IS FOUNDATION
FOR ALL PROPER HIGHWAYS
Lane County Judge Gives His
Own Practical but Conser
vative Experience.
Declaring that good Toads are
essential to the growth and upbuild
ing of a community and that the
foundation of all road building is
proper drainage, County Judge H.
W. Thompson, of Lane county, de
livered a forccable address before the
good roads meeting last night at the
Commercial club, upon the subject
of "How to Build and Maintain Good
Roads."
A number of local good road ad
vocates and others who are interested
in the movement recently inaugurated
by the Commercial club, were pres
ent, including County Judge Bruce
McKnight and County Commissioner
u. li. Kusseil, ot Linn county.
The speaker was introduced by
President Van Winkle, who explained
the purpose of the meeting, stating
that it was Ihe crnest desire of mem
bers of the club that this county
should have good roads as circum
stances permit, and that to this end
may the Commercial Club co-oper
ate Willi tne county court and other
good road factions, in harmony, that
this object may become an early re
alization.
"We realize the necessity o'f good
roads," said Mr. Van Winkle "and
we want to lend all the assistance
we can to accomplish the object at
issue through the co-operation with
the county court and enthusiastic cit
izens. Everybody is invited to take
part in this matter. We of the Com
mercial Club are not selfish. We fully
realize that Albany cannot have ail
ot the good roads ot the county but
what we would like to see is a start
towards good road construction in
this immediate section. We are will
ing to go to other cities of the county
and conduct similiar meetings as this,
in order to' educate the people and in
still interest in the proposition, that
they may familiarize themselves with
road construction, and what it will
mean to the community."
Judge Thompson is a splendid
speaker and his address was intently
listened to by those present. It was
at good sound practical talk, based up
on the Judge's conservative experi
ences as the chief road builder of
Lane county. Me graphically ex
pressed his opinions of what he con
sidered as an ideal road, giving his
definition of such and telling of his
success in carrying out the road poli
cies of his court. He explained in
detail the workings of the Lane coun
ty court in reference to the road
question and told of the success that
had attained the efforts of the court
along this line.
"The fundamental principle of road
construction," he said "is proper
drainage and this is the foundation
of all road building. To have a good
road, it should be well drained and
this applys to practically any kind of
road. The cross contour of a road
should be pf a curved shape and the
highest po'int should he directly in
the middle. Proper ditches should
be constructed along each side of
such road to properly drain off the
water. If this is done common sense
will tell you that road conditions will
have been materially bettered. This
condition easily lays the foundation
for any surface material desired on
the road. I do not claim to lie a road
engineer and I feci that all of the
roads I have been instrumental in
causing to be built, have been mainly
ereeted by my mouth. It has been
said that we should build roads to
accomodate the many tourists who
travel through the valley by auto
mobile ill the summer, among them
rich Californians. but this is not the
primary purpose I have in view when
I announce that I am strongly in fa
vor of good roads. While tlie tour
ists would be strongly attracted to
this section in this event, and they
spend a good deal of lnonev in tlin
cities and at the hotels, my wish for
universal good roads in this section
is for the benefit of the farmer, that
he may haul a load of apples to town
without making apple butter out of
them."
During the course of his speech.
Judge Thompson dwelt largely on
the commercial advantages of "good
roads and how they would better con
ditions for the farmers. He held that
while a little stretch of macadam road
four or five miles long would look
very small compared to several hun
dred miles of raw roads, that it only
required a beginning to start the good
road work rolling anil he suggested
that a main highway out of this citv
ne placed in this conditi.

of the city, making particular men

The opening of the Northern Pa
cilic was tlie beginning of a new era
in the Northwest. The first train
over brought to this northwest coun
try new life and blood, as well as
vigor and confidence. Previously one
had to get here by steamer or stage
or wagon. The event deserved tlie
attention it received and our people
generally had a right to shout. Among
those on the first train was A. .
Hammer, a leading Albany merchant.
A visit to Albany in September,
1883, by Henry H. Garfield, suggests
a career that is worthy of notice. .Mr.
Gilfrey was then reading clerk of the
U. S. senate, a position he had been
holding for awhile. On account of
his efficiency and personal popular
ity he kept in the office for manv
years, then promoted to chief clerk of
the senate. Perhaps no public man
in the U. S. is more intituatelv ac
quainted with the leading men of the
nation than Mr. Gilfrey, an Oregon
"hoy."
A prominent U. O. student was
Milt Miller, then editor of the U. O.
column in the Oregon State Journal
of Eugene. Mr. Miller is now regent
of the university, one of our state sen
ators, a prominent candidate for col
lector of customs, also mentioned for
sonic foreign post, and has been prom
inently mentioned for governor.
A couple of births in September, at
this city, were two girls, one on Sept.
22 to Mr. and Mrs. R. Thompson, and
on the 29th to Mr. and Mrs. G. E.
Chamberlain.
In October an old folk's party was
held, with fourteen present. The
youngest one in it then, Mrs. W. Q.
Stewart, is now the oldest and the on
ly one of the number alive. All of
tlie others have gone after playing
their parts well in the upbuilding of
character in this western country.
The murder of Mrs. Jas. Fitllayson
in November caused great excite
ment here. Her mutilated body was
found. Investigation followed, re
