CITY HAS GREAT
Dr. W. E. Snyder Declares That
Hub City's Progress Is
Phenominal.
SAYS THERE IS AN AIR
OF PROSPERITY HERE
Lauds Civic Pride and Declares
That Churchs and Hotels
Are Credit.
Cfjntintictl from S.tlnnkty, Feb. 7
That there is an air of general pros
perity about Albany land that the
growth of the Hub City during- the
past five years is phenomenal as com
pared lo any other town in the Wil
lamette valley on this side of the
river, was the statement made yes
.terday by Rev. J. E. Snyder, pastor
of the Piedmont Presbyterian church,
of Portland. Dr. Snyder is in the
cily assisting Rev. F. II. Gcsclbrachl,
of the First Presbyterian church in
conducting a scries of special relig
ious meetings. He will remain over
next Sunday. Mrs. Snyder will ar
rive tomorrow to join -her husband.
Kev. Snyder hr.s been the pastor of
Piedmont church in Portland for the
past 5 years. He was formerly pastor
of 'the Mrownsville Presbyterian
church, having resided tl ere 12 years
ago. lie built the diurch there. From
Hrownsville he was called to Van
couver, Wash., to accept a charge.
From there Rev. Snyder went to Chi
cago where Jic remained as pastor
of a church for 3 yeatn. It was there
that he first met Rev. Geselbracht,
who ci'.me to Albany from Chicago.
Here 10 Years Ago.
Thin is Dr. Snyder's first visit to
Albany in 10 . years. At that lime
he was here on a similr.r mission.
Rev. Tracy li. Griswold was then pas
tor of the local church. Rev. (iris
wold is now in New York,
Dr. Snyder went into the evange
listic field, (-I: rough litis connection
with Dr. J. Wither Chapman, secre
tary of the evangelistic committee of
the general assembly of the Presby
terian church, having been affiliated
in the work with Dr. Chapman for
the past 10 years. Since that time
Dr. Snyder has gone about assisting
in conducting special meetings.
That Dr. Snyder's remeiubcrauce
of the Albany of 10 years ago is very
vivid, is indicated by bis comparison
of the cily as it is today. He declared
that it's growth during that time has
been phenomenal as compared to oth
er towns of the valley, on this side
of the river and that there appears to
be an air of general prosperity about
Albany and the surrounding county.
Civic Pride In Evidence.
"Civic pride is shown here mi all
side-," lie said, "and I refer particular
ly to the churcl-.es, and the miles of
Mreet pavement. The Albany l.otels
arr wonderful for a cily r.f t i i sic
and 1 think they would do credit to a
much larger city. When 1 tiffed t
tb i e to Albany from Brownsville
car ao, my bug.i;y would gel iiiirct
in the streets, not lo speak of the ter
rible condition of tlu- roads. Hut now
you can l;o with ea-.e about the city
;u:d I have noticed marked ro.d im
provements "
Speaking of the general develop
ment ot the country, he said that as
he has casually observed, ihe pro-r.ie-s
has been very uhstaniial and
cotisi-r .iti e ami in keeping with the
pio-iesT characterizing Albany.
"The construction of the Oregon
Fleet rie into this section," he said,
"is nue ot the greatest developments
of proiiio-s. It should and is being
the means uf vast gardening tracts
being opened up. 1 think that the
land alone; the Oregon Fhvtrio would
be more profitable by the raisin;; of
garden truck than hop, and particu
larly if the establishment of a public
maiket in Portland i; made Imagine
the employment to be available, ami
llien agree that the products wouldn't
be wasted a they are now. The sale
of products diiect to the consumer
would be of the lv eat est bene tit to
the producer and the Oregon llectrie
and a public market established in
Portland or anv other town will af
ford thi opportunity."

GORVALLISITES TO COME Til
ALBANY ON SPECIAL TRAIN
Will Attend Methodist Church
Organ Recital February
11 in Body.
An event in Albany on Wednesday,
February II, 8:15, is likely to attract
many Corvallis lovers of music and
personal friends of the D. II. Leech
family this being the date of the in
augural recital of the splendid new
pipe organ just installed in the First
Methodist church there. W. II. Don
ley, of L- idon, England, originally,
and now organist at the First M. E.
church, Seattle, assisted by George
Wilber Reed, tencr robusto, and Miss
Orali Pearl Darkness, reader, will give
die recital, and the names leave no
doubt that the occasion will be more
than usually enjoyable. This added
lo the fact Miat D. H. Leech, pastor
of the Albany church, was formerly
a popular pastor here, has appealed
in such way that Corvallis friends
have made arrangements to run a
special return train for the recital.
This will make it possible for Corval
lis people to go over to the Hub
City after business hours and return
after the recital, the trip and concert
costing but little more than a dollar, if
that. It is reasonably certain that a
large number will go from here next
Wednesday. Corvallis Times.
SALEM DEFEATS ALBANY AT
BASKETBALL, 29 TO 11
Would Have Been Pleasing But
For Unfair Refereeing of
Salemite.
A packed gallery of basketball fans
last night saw the Salem high school
basketball team defeat the Albany
high school team by the decisive score
of 29 to II, a feat performed in the
second half. The game was fast and
snappy, full of thrills, at times very
rough, and, but for the very unfair
'and one-sided work of a Salem ref
eree in the first half, would have been
a pleasing game to witness.
Albany fairly outplayed Salem in
the first part of the game, making
five field baskets to only one
by Salem. Salem's other five points
in the half were nride on fouls, out of
about ten tries. Albany did not even.
get a chance to try from the foul line,
though Salem made fully as many,
if not more, fouls than Albany. Be
sides this the referee had the ball
thrown up on every excuse, often
without an occasion for it at all. In
the second half Fnlcm gave one of
the most brilliant exhibitions of bas
ketball ever seen here, making 22.
while Albany only scored from the
foul line. In this -half, Arthur I lodge,
of the college, officiated as referee, in
an impartial manner. Proctor was
the star for Salem. All of the Albany
boys deserve men lion, particularly
for their splendid team work and ef
fective guarding in the first half.
