The Sooner the better.

Mr.. John Burnett makes the follow
Ing suggestions in the Gazette, OF inter-
est to Linn county, and right here it
may be remarked that Albany people
will be glad to see bridge across the
Willamette at Corvallis. Ferries are
very antiquated, and the more bridges
that epan the Willamette the better.
Here is what Mr.. Burnett says:
at is an admitted fact that the division
OF the county very materially impaired
Corvallis in her business and trade.
Now the question lie, how can that loss
OF business and trade be made good? l
answer, by building free wagon bvidge
across the Willamette river within the
corporate limits OF the city. The very
best portion OF Linn county lies directly
east Of US and ia naturally tributary to
this city, but on account OF the expense
and delay in ferrying across the river.
that trade is driven off to Albany end
other places. Albany built fine bridge
from their city into the north end Of
this county to get the trade from that
portion Of our County, now let us return
the compliment by building like etruct-
ure into the south end OF Linn county.
A bridge can be built at Corvallis for
less than half what the Albany bridge
cost, for the reason that the river is only
about half as wide, and there is good
high banks on both sides. Il may be
be said that times are hard and money
scarce grant it, yet we ought to make
the stronger effort to improve the trade
and business Of our city. II the county
would appropriate ten Thousand dollars
and the city the same amount, the bridge
could be built, for gaod substantial
bridge like the Madison stree: bridge can
be built for twenty-five thousand dollars.
Let our business men and property hold
ers make an intelligent effort in that d.
rection and see what can be done. 'The
Gods help them who help themselves.
Il seems strange 10 me that this city viii
turn away from the rich Offering held
ous TO us by our neighbors across ths
river. AImos. enough wheat fro ~ Linn
county alone can be saved T. fill OuI
mills and wsrehc hcuses."

SATURDAY NIGHT THOUGHTS.

The closing exercises Of the public
schools oring up old memories. One
can see the Old desks again, the familiar
face OF the teacher comes down through
twenty-five years, the old companions
come out OF the darkness; oh, those
wonderful echool days, how they i'm
pressed themselves on our minds, driven
in as il by spikes, all the good and bad
things; ell the sunshine, all the chad.
ows all the ambitions, all the discour-
agements, one can see and feel them
again. The trooping bright faced chill
dren OF today make one feel for an in
slant as II il were different life; but it
is the same. School life Ia school life for
a fact whether now or quarter OF q CEN
tury ago. We should try to appreciate
the boys ard girls around and help
them to grJw ap with firm purposes to
live good lives, for all the seeds are sown
in the school days. What an influence
goes ou. from the school yard that
spreaes and epreads as the years 60
Perhaps little thing makes Toy or
girl turn in the right channel and estab-
fishes their character. Certainly the
general tenor Of school life is a great
factor this way. Hence it 10 always I'M
portant that men aua women of high
ideas and ,xemplary personal characters
be at the head OF the different depart
ments Of echools, as well as persons OF
intellectual force. Children always look
to the teachers above them, and II they
see in them noble qualities the infiu-
ence will always be good, while the
wrong influence OF a selfish teacher can
not be estimated. Characters are bull,
under twenty-one, aid the great reform
field Of ths future will te among tchoo
children. Prevention is better than
cure.
