SEVERAL COMMITTEES ARE APPOINTED His Meeting Will Bo Held in the An tiers Theatre Invitations to lie Sent Various Commercial CltilM of the State. With a large crowd in attendance and much interest manifest, the citi zens of Roseburg last night met at the Roseburg Commercial Club rooms and partially effected arrangements for the big "booster" meeting to be held here on December 4. Among the out-of-town guests was Tom Richard son, of Portland. Mr. Richardson is one of Oregon's .foremost boosters and never allows an opportunity to pass whereby he can sing the praises of this great state. The first speaker of the evening was Judge Riddle, one of the dele gates to the Grants Pass meeting. It was evident from the Judges talk that jie believes in advertising the resources of Douglas county and fa vors the establishment of a compre hensive exhibit at Ashland to be maintained during the year 1915. The third delegate who spoke was Mr. Henry Harth. For some reason Mr. Harth was 'unusually modest, and confined his address to a few brief remarks favoring the program as outlined at Grants Pass. Tom Richardson was then intro duced and gave those present some good, wholesome advice along the lines of community advertising, show ing how much is possible to gain by co-operation, and how much is lost by permitting differences in local af fairs to interfere with the progress of the community. Mr. Richardson's gos pel of lovaltv and co-operation is one that ought to reach every citizen of Douglas county. Mrs. Win. Bell followed Mr. Rich ard. -on, and the sentiments expressed in hor talk were heartily applauded liy the club members, Mr. O. R. C. Crow, a newcomer from California, who joined the Com mercial club immediately upon his ar rival, gave his impressions as a new cnnvr. mid in closing, expressed the hrpe that the evidences of co.-opera-' Won, so apparent on every hand in R.-eburg. would increase materially nnd the Roseburg Commercial club mensim up ftillv to f'e high stand ard set by Mr. Richardson. Mr. Lee Wimberly spoke briefly along the line of the benefits of ad vertising, nnd enmhasized the need of a substantial campaign, showing the sure results to he obtained. A revolution stating that it was the sense of this meeting that Doug Ins county favored the establishment of a permanent exhibit at Ashland, Ore., carried unanimously. On motion, the Commercial Club of Roseburg was instructed to send an invitation to each town. Grange nnd community in Douglas county to he represented by the delegation to the Greater Oregon meeting to be held December 4, next.
