Roseburg is acting very naughty and will do itself an injury that it will take many years to overcome. The capital of Douglas should re member the experience of Cottage Grove and profit thereby. At the last session of the legislature. Rose burg was re-incorporated taking in West Roseburg under some protest from that part of the city. Now West Roseburg has petitioned the j county court to incorporate the town of West Roseburg and the petition has been granted, an election to take place next September. In the meantime however, the ques tion of whether West Roseburg must remain a part of the city, or be al lowed to "hoe its own row" will be fought out in the circuit court. A city divided against itself cannot grow and Roseburg may learn this to its sorrow. West Roseburg had best remain a part of the city proper and add other territory as fast as time and conditions will justify- Fainnount and College Hill have found it an advantage to become part of Eugene proper and West Roseburg will see it the same way in the course of time. Our advice to West Roseburg is to be good, get in and hustle and buckle down to hard work in advancing the material prosperity of Douglas coun ty's thriving metropolis. Eugene Register. THE HUMANE BULLETS OF JAPAN. According to a Russian medical in vestigator, the Japanese are using the most harmless bullet that was ever fired from a rifle comparatively harmless, that is, in its after effects. Instead of using dumdum bullets of the deadly type surreptitiously brought into use in the Boer war, or of resorting to poisoned bullets, the Japanese have provided themselves with rifles the bore of which is so small and the velocity of the bullet so great that the bullet in its flight gathers heat, which enables it to act as a germicide. The effect of the fire is to produce anesthesia rather than a painful, lingering death. The bullet used by the Japanese makes a scarcely noticeable penetration in the tissue without tearing, and a little red spot as of an insect bite tells the cause of coma of the wounded. WANT TO DIVIDE ROSEBURG. Roseburg is about to furnish a spectacle of "a house divided against itself." Whether West Roseburg is to be a part of the City of Roseburg proper or an independent municipality is a question that will have to be settled by the courts. The county court on Friday afternoon, prior to its adjourn ment for the term, granted the peti tion of West Roseburg residents, ask ing the privilege of incorporating in dependently, and the city council of Roseburg is now taking steps to pre vent consummation of the project by carrying the matter into the courts. Ashland Tidings. "The Norwegians are a democratic people," says a London authority They may be in Norway but out in Minnesota and the Dakotas they vote the republican ticket without scratch. -Washington Post. QUALITY OREGON Attorney A. C Woodcock, went to Portland and argued in the 1. S. t'ourt hffore Jadtre He Haven, a few davs aCl, in sa.,,Hir! of , Aemumr he had tiled to the indictment of ,T. H.

He claim-! that Booth was indicted for giving out in formation concerning matters in the I. and Ortiee which had already been decided and were matters of public record, which the law de not pro hibit but required him to do. If Mr. Woodcock is right there was nothing to base the indictment on. person who drew it made a which the court will correct missing the indictment. Journal.

The chief scout in the Mikado's army in Manchuria is a Canadian. Lieutenant Thomas Casey Callaghan. who won his military title in the Boer war. 1 revious to that time he had roughed it on the Northwestern ranches, becoming an expert horse- man. rifle shot and hunter of big game. On one occasion in South Africa he was shot through the bodv and was given up for dead. The story of his life seems like chapters from di ne novels. The Kugene Daily Register changed hands last week, the editor and half owner of the paper, Will G. Gilstrap. selling his interest to two bright young newspaper men of Paw Paw. Illinois, W. F. Gilstrap, business manager, retaining his half interest in the paper. The Register is one of the brightest and newiest of the Wil lamette Valley country dailies and promises to maintain its usual high standard under its new management. With all this clamor about tariff re vision it is to be hope! "that the memory of the Iowa farmer runs back ten years in orJer that he may know what he was then getting for wool he is today sell ing at 2o to ft) cents." - Fairfield Ga.t Ledger. The Oregon farmer also has a memory, and it applies on the same subject. The doctors are the latest class of citizens to demand a department for themselves in the President's Cabinet. At the present rate of demands of this sort, and if the demands be granted, the Cabinet will soon have become as bulky and unwieldy a thing to handle as Congress, but this de mand is worthy of favorable con sideration. The Co-operative Christian Federa tion, promoted by a well known for mer Lane county preacher, H. S. Wallace, is thought by many to be a wild-goose scheme. Wallace has been working on it for several years, and from time to time the Plaindealer his spoken of the matter. Mr. Peary is to dash for the north pole again. These expeditions al wa s begin with a dash and end with an exclirmtion point. VARIETY IS THE KEYNOTE Douglas Ccunty Booth Comprises Many Branches of Southern Oregon Activity IVnliinu Telegram. It was May i, L906, when Douglas county decided that it was practicable and practical to make an exhibit at the Lewis and Clark Exposition. The booth was constructed and fully occu- pied by the time the exposition opened. From time to time since the j exhibit has been added to, and will be j added to further as time goes on; but i already the county has a fairly com plete display on hand, and is attract- ing the attention of many intending ! immigrants, who are now beginning to arrive at the exposition in large j numbers. Douglas' space is along the west side of the Agricultural building, to wards the north end. It is noticeable perhaps most of all for the variety of the exhibit. Nothing is present in large quantities, but there Is grain in the sheaf that will rival any in quality of grain or attractiveness of arrange ment. There are the various grasses, native and tame: fruits of all kinds, either in the raw or the canned state; some are green. Alongside the apples, prunes, peaches, cherries, berries, one may find bamboo, flourishing as if it came from Japan, and various curious growth of maple and climbing plants, indicating a richness of forestry sur p issed in few counties. There are minerals, too, gold ores, copper ores, nickel ores, coal and others. And mineral water, from the Boswell S trings, is dispensed free at the booth. Agriculture, horticulture, mineral, with a sprinkling of exhibits from the animal kingdom, such as wool and cattle products, and there is the sum total of raanv counties. Not so with Douglas. It also makes essays ' in oil painting, in a varied collection ; from the brush of Mrs. M. B. Bos yell. CXRIOS ox VIEW. Then, too, there are the curios, not the least among which is a chain, with an intricate ornament on the end. every link separate, and the whole carved from a single piece of wood bv an inmate of the Veterans' Home at Roseburg. km ; i E a- I M 11 " remembered that it is not complete as yet the Donglas County exhibit hit.it. P. G. Micelli, an attorney of Roseburg, is secretary of the jom nission. and T. R. Sheridan, of the First National Bank of Roseburg, is treasurer. This commission was ; chosen at a mass meeting, and, join- j ing forces with the Commercial Club, j succeeded in interesting the County j Court in an exhibit at the Lewis and dark fair sufficiently to have it make j an appropriation early in May. M. F. Wright, of Roseburg, also contributed largely to this exhibit. COLD COMFORT TO THE LIBELED. There is cold comfort for those who imagine that they can secure heavy i 'iiiniae.- or any damages wuausoever. from a newspaper or person for every insignificent or pertinent criticism that may be uttered against them, in the late decision in the Burns-Hume libel case: the Plaindealer libel case and a half dozen other libel cases which have been announced lately. In the Curry county case, Hume issued a circular, answering Burns' statements; Burns followed with a letter of no mild form, and Hume then put out a circular that denounced Burns in language that created a sensation around the legislative halls. The last circular was the foundation for the libel suit brought by Burns. Hume's defense was that he had been provoked to his attack, that his denunciation of Burns was a privi leged publication, that it was not written in malice, and that his state ments were true. When the case was called for trial, a jury was drawn and the case stated, but objection was made to the introduction of any testimony under the 'pleadings, and this was sustained, and a verdict di rected for defendant, in short order The courts are not disposed to muzzle the press or award damages to indivi luals for every criticism, di rected at them. A free and untram meled press and free speech are the greatest safeguards against graft t and all manners of corruption. Senator Fulton comes out boldly in opposition to the administration's policy of modifying the Chinese ex-! elusion act. He seems to be made of the right stuff and not afraid to sp ak his mind even in opposition to the powers that be. OUR MAMMOTH JULY SALE IS STILL ON All the following Seasonable.
