They start at six o'clock in the morning and work to ten o'clock at night. They are opposed to Imitation, Ignorance, Inexperience, Idleness and Cowardice. The six first workers bear the name of the sterling qualities that make the HIGH GRADE OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP In any competition against the others there is no question about the outcome. - " They have won tho battle before it is started, and to tho victor belongs tho spoils. Tho great question of today is not what you Iwljevo, but what yon know you can do. Abraham Lincoln, one of "America's Immortals." said. When You aro Right, You are the Crowd, lieoauseit will Follow You." History past tells you over a million of America's lighting men marched in the path laid out by tho "Chief Knginoor." Kind reader, tho progressive man goes on and leaves tho knocker far behind, nnd who cares. The man in tho automobile will pass in a thirty mile clip tho man with the wheelbarrow, and leave the dust behind for tho knocker. H A FEW DAYS one-half million pounds of concrete will be placed in position in Alexander's Old Reliable Center Pier Uoseburg's lasting monument to the six workmen, thero have placed it to stand as the "Rock of Ages." Only earthquake or dynamite will move it. The Diers in the Alexander bridire are made with foresight. In six, eight, or ten years from today, when the present bridge has answered its purpose, when Roseburg has awakened to street car service, the piers are planned and made so large and strong that then a steel structure can be placed outside, put in position by the aid of the old bridge answer ing as false works, and Roseburg citizens will then say, "The Man from Copenhagen" knew what he was doing. The knockers will be dead; they will have died of the fungus disease, "dry rot;" Rose burg will have a "River Faced I'ark" second to none in Southern Oregon. Alexander Says SoAlexander Knows Fellow citizens, let me tell you some of Alexander's plans and hopes. The beautiful I'mpqua river will, when in bad "humor," ca-ry sand and gravel to the park, workmen will place it in the park, making nice graveled walks, an occasional rustic seat will be placed against the old monarchs, the oaks that have seen generations 1 growing up and seen them die, and the old soldier with his gray haired wife, will on the National Holidays take a rest, will dream ' about the days when he was young and strong, when he answered ! Washington's and Lincoln's call, left the young girl standing at his side with tears in her eyes, to show the world "United we Stand, ' Divided we Fall." When the Fourth of July comes, we will not buy ! firecrackers in Roseburg. We will take the children to a bath ' and boating on the Umpqua river, a lunch in the park, and the park will be open to all except the knockers. Those conditions are duties to all good American citizens, and Roseburg has its share of sterling men and women, up-to-date and progressive, and all the Umpqua Land & Water Co., Inc., ask, in a friendly way, is this little simple thing, CO-OPERATION.
