Street paving, building hnprove
xnents in the business section, new
homes in the residence district in
course of construction, few if any
desirable houses offered for rent, are
a few of the indications that Rose
burg is, as its people contend, the
best town In Western Oregon. It is
a safe place to Invest. Properties are
reasonable, and no bursted "booms
ore hindering the progress of this
elty.
The sample of coal taken from
the hills near Kellogg and exhibited
ly J. M. Engle, appear to be of the
finest sort, and there Is said to be
unlimited quantities of the product.
Men familiar with the coal mining
(Industry have often tutserted that
great coal deposits exist in Douglas
county, and only lack of transporta
tion prevents development of many
properties. The proposed railroads
through the county to tne coast will
open up an immense section rich In
minora! wealth and timber.
Seven thousand men and women
paid admissions to Hose City Park
racing course, Tuesday, at Portland,
to see men jeopardize tiielr lives in
an auto race. The excitement was
enhanced materially when a White
steumer, driven by a Portland youth.
Jumped over the Inner railing nml
down a thirty-foot embankment.
The drlvor of the car was thrown
fifty feet onto a pile of rock, where
apectntors found him with broken
bones and crushed skull. Life Is es
teemed lightly these days, but the
publfd must have amusement, and
the griefs and heart-ucnes of re'
tlves of victims are of llttlo consequence.
Farm help uppears to be scarce In
this community. The advertising
columns of The News almost dully
contain advertisements of parties de
siring good reliable help on the
f ii nil, bnlhj for the field and the
farm-house. While thorn nr some
replies to these advertisements, gen
erally the applUants nro piirtlonlnr
to Inquire how far from town are
tho positions, and often turn down
good opportunities. TIhmi. too, the
question of hours often plays nn I ni
prtaut part In the transaction. Too
many men who uoed Employment
w(H' stickle over the question of
hours. Farmer folk are not In io
sltlon to adhere to union regulations.
Klght hours a day in the Held would
never plant thej crops or harvest
them, 'ihe farmer works hard him
self and his help must give a rens
onnhlo service. The Individual who
seeks employment on tho farm, sticks
to his work, shows his ability for
usefulness and performing a nmn's
work at other places on the ranch
than the d'ulng table, will some day
1o operating n farm for himself.
The other sort of man will contin
ually hang around employment fifth-en
and always have n hard luck
story to tell.
