COOS RAY-ROSKIIURG AVAGOV
ItOAD.
The Times called attention some
time ago to the Coos Bay-Roscburg
wagon road. To say that it ca'lcd
attention to it is like nsk'n: a man
In a rxud hole to noto how muddy it
is ci n man In tho water to observe
fct.V wet his surroundings Still peo-
I " get used to their surroundings,
no matter how bad they ar4. and for
get their discomfiture. So It is
with tho Coos Bay-Ros tour; wag in
j' ad. But the people h3 come .'vcr
II never forget again and thy pri plo
who come In some other way have to
hear about it with pain for it in
variably take3 the point of their own
hard luck story.
'It is a pleasure to noto that the
Roseburg Spokesman is alive to the
situation. Its last issuo it quotes one
of The Times' articles "calling at
tention" to that delectable turnpike
nnd approves the worst which that
article says and goes it several bet
ter. But even the Spokesman doesn't
say the worst. Marshficld and pos
sibly Coqulllo and perhnps Myrtle
Point and maybe Bandon will find it
worse yet, for it is said the mail
which has to come into that country
that way hns become so bulky that
tho contractor wants to quit, and
that tho carriage of that mail over
the road is Impracticable. Douglas
nnd Coos counties are, as the Spokes
man very aptly says, very much at
fault. The road should have been
fixed some. Mind! Wo did not say
fixed, but fixed some. We try to be
conservative. By patching it in
places at slight expense it would,
perhaps, admit tho mail once or twice
nnd in tho interest of economy it
might bo fixed some again when nec
essary. Patchwork judiciously ap
plied would not, on tho whole, cost
moro than four times as much as
thorough work and gives moro to
talk about. Would It not be fine if
tho mall didn't cono in from Christ
mas till April. How delightful would
bo tho quiet solitude and sweet rest
far removed from tho turmoil and
agitation of a letter writing and
paper printing world. And tho coun
ty court has adjourned.

EXHAUSTS EFFORTS
AND KILLS HIMSELF
Cle Eltini, AVnsh., Woodman Cuts
Throat AA'hcn Struggle
Proves in Vnln.
Cle Elum, Wash., Oct. 10. Pinned
under a log and either unable to bear
tho terrible pain or fearing that even
if rescued he would be a helpless
cripple for life, Claude Harkness, 30
years old, pulled a knife from his
pocket and cut his throat. Several
hours later his lifeless body was
found by his uncle, Marion Harkness,
who was working in the timber with
him. How long the unfortunate man
cried for assistance will never be
known. The ground was torn up on
the spot where he was found and tells
a mute story of the awful fight he
made to free himself before he de-
effled to take his life.
Harkness was working on a big
timber when it rolled over and
pinioned him. His limbs were
crushed to tho thighs and doctors as
sert it is doubtful if he would have
lived had he been rescued alive. It
is their opinion ho struggled violent
ly until ho felt his strength leaving
him then committed suicide.
Smith Company Adds Brick.
Tho C. A. Smith Lumber & Manu
facturing company has had so much
inquiry for brick thnt it has con
cluded to keep a supply hereafter and
has 50,000 on hand for the trade.
Prospective builders prefer In most
instances to have their brick hauled
with their lumber, nnd the Smith
company puts In the stock to accom
modate such customers.

moved to St. John over a year ago.
AV. E. Savage, who also moved to
St. Johns, is said to be a brother

COL. TUCKER REPORT

A Now Racket Store.

first of January with a racket store.
A friend of G. AV. Carleton's will
come from tho east and install a full
stock of goods, occupying the lower

AVashington, Oct. 11. Inspector
General Gallngton who went to the
Phlllipplnes to investigate charges
made by Mrs. Mary Logan Tucker
against her husband, Col. AV. F.
Tucker, returned to AVashington last
night. General Gallngton spent five
weeks in Manila and prepared a re
port which he left for Secretary Taft
to consider upon his arrival there.
There is reason to believe that no
action by the war department is rec-commended.
