We heartily rejoice with our friends
at Brownsville on the organization of
a new company to operate tiie woolen
mills at that, place. The spirit of de
termination with which they, have
taken hold of this matter, and the
phuk and energy of the men who have
now taken hold will insure its success
iw the future. Brownsville has won
ufi enviable position in the commer
cial world for her manufactured goods,
and it is but just and right that she
should hold her own. If Aibj-ny
wants to embark In a similar enter
prise, Jet her start the move and run
on her own rtiori!s. We arc proud of
Albany as a growing city, but we can
not rejoice at her success when it is at
the vxpense of Brownsville.- Now
that both places are to have their
mills, let there be a generous rivalry;
there is plenty of room for loth. It
took Albany a whole month to raise
!?2),Oi;0, und the papers and citizens
blowed about enough torun the factory
by wind, but Brownsville raised $1",
000 in one hour, and no "blowing your
own horn about it." We would mod
estly suggest now that hereafter Alba
ny call her mills by her own name
or christen it something else, and not
try to take both tht prosperity and
name too from her sister town.
TEACllKlfS INSTITUTE.
Albany Jlcrn'.d
The teachers and friends of education
throughout Linn county are hereby
not I lied that the teachers' institute for
the third judicial district will be he,ld
ut McMinnville, beginning the 150th
of April and continue through a three
day's session. As this district includes
Linn, county, it is expected that a
number of teachers from t his county
wi;l be present. Every teacher should
consider thu importance of a good in
stitute und should attend when it is in
his power to do so. Ask your directors
whether you can attend and explain
the benefits to be derived fiom such
work; if you arc desiring to make u
success of your work take advantage of
these opportunities to improve your
self. 8upt. McKlroy Is in earnest when
he says ho expects a good representa
tion from Linn county, so let us all go.
Everybody is invited to attend, teach
ers, parents and school ofllcers.
