The state rights democrat. [volume] (Albany, Linn County, Oregon) 1865-1900, 1889-09-20

DoN'r L..kk II. Ihoossnds oi dollars
have been spenl Ia The Dallcx and certain
Willamette Valley towns this fall, BY resi-.
dents o. this county, for supplies. and thou
sands more viii DC spent for the same pur-
pose before the advento OF winter. II Is very
questionable whether, IN the long run,
anything Is saved BY trading for cash away
from home. II ones time Is worth noth-
ing, he may save tomething BY buying his
winter supplies In Albany, but how lar
does The money spent abroad 20 toward
building up our town Better do youi
trading at home, except in cases where an
individual has monopollzed the business In
a certain line Of trade and wants unrea-
soaable prices for all he has TO sell.--
Prinevllle News. As we don't like Il when
people 10 to Portland TO do their trading
comment would be out OF place but real
ly such places as Portland and Albany are
built up by becoming trade centers and
some people viii 60 away from home II
they imagine they can do better and II is
every clty's bualness TO take advantage OF
the fact.
NorHINo IL Ir.--
There Is talk OF street car line being
exteaded down First Street to the WOODEN
mills, then out to East Albany now being
plated BY the Willamette Land Co, and
also out Ferry Street 10 South Albany and
Eikins' addition TO the city.--Hyaid.
The DEMOCRAT Il requested by dlrec-
tor OF the Stree, Car Company to say that
here Is nothing In the above. The com.
pany at the present time has no such ex.
tension In contemplation.

son, OF this city, who was recently In La
Grande left the following tafty, according
to the Journal al was In LaGrande IN
1864 when there was net dozen houses
here and have been here great many
times since. Since the railroad came In
the town has been building up rapidly and
think that with the country tributary
here that you should have a town st 5000
people within the next two years. The
peorle Of the Valley should do all they can
to help the numbering interests along. I
understand that some are fighting against
one company here, and they are making
mistake In doing so.'
