There have been many meeting at the. Comnierclal Club rooms at which the question i( good roads were talked over and discussed and thou quietly shelved and forgotten. While the necessity for constant un tiring work on the roads of the coun ty was not lost sight of, the enthusi asm seemed to die out when ways und means to accomplish this end wero considered. Hut tile meeting luld yesterday afternoon to hear the plans of the advisory board -to the state highway commission, and a talk from the engineer in charge of all the state work, wjli be an en tering wedge to Bf mil perform ance under skillful and competent management. A system is being evolved that will result in vast and permanent Improvement. Oregon is awakening to the fact that good, solid, permanent roads and highways are not only essential to prosperity, but a necessity, and this Is being brought before the county courts aln over the state. In this matter It can be assured that Douglas county will not fall behind tho rest of the pro cession . The proposed plnn of hav ing a survey made of present and proposed roads) tho expense of which will be attached to tho budget, met with hoarty accord from officials of the eeunty, and from citizens alike. It is the first step in the procedure to secure state help where It is need ed, and based on the amount which !t will be necessury lo outlay. It Is the belief of the gentlemen who were ' here that but little difficulty, if any, will be encountered in I ho matter of the Issue of ten millions stnl. oondB, and that same can be readily floated With a low interest rate. It was a great good roads meeting bound to result In vast benefits. This Is the kind of spirit that Oregon tnat DouginB county wants to see, and under It this section Is bound to Increase In population and pros perity in bounds and leaps.

Nobody suppos ed that the OermaiiB had carted thorn back in tho Interior, or hidden thorn in the ,rocesses of tho Diack Forest Bomewhere, Now if the dis patch had 'reported that somo bombs t.vl been dropped on the Writs, there would have been something to tell. Ttye first thing one knows they may report a Zeppelin had sail ed over London and discovered that Nelson's Statuo wns still standing, or over Paris, and found the Elfin Tower still Intnct. Fudge on such news! It is not worth the cnblo tolls wo havo to pny for it. One of the learned alienists (by the wny who knows Just what an alienist Is?) complained at tho Thaw trial thnt he wus being "hptontied" by tho defendant. Possibly Thaw wanted to got III in under the influ ence mid than command him to say ho was the real nnn on trial for sanity. P.y tho way. the Jury this afternoon returned a verdict in fav or of Thnw, declaring tit in sane. ltOAI .Mi:l:l'IN() WOltKS (iOOII state and to Hunllngton would add more to advancement. "and perman ent prosperity than anything else. It would connect with the Lincoln high way anj give us between 700 am1 800 miles. Mr. Albert, of Salem, said he van new to the county from the Inside although he had passed through it on the truin a number of times. He is a firm believer In building roads thut will last and have some per manency; Bald it would cost approxi mately $12,000 per mile in Douglas county, probably $15,000 to build tills road not bard surfaced. Uo Is strongly in favor of 4 per cent bonds with a sinking fund after four years to take caro of Interest, this to us Invested so that it would. return the same Interest rnte. j A. C. Marsters admitted that this was the first time he had known of the Btate being interested In county roads and it gratified him very much. Roads must be built to make a great country, the people were Interested In the completion and mnlnteuanae of the Pacific High way, and tho proposed itsuo of state bonds was a good thing. O. H. Porter said that Douglas county had spent much on roads and contributed much to the state funds, but that In comparison with Jack son county, but the latter had re ceived greater returns from the Blate. J. H. Booth said he could not build roads but was willing to pay his part in getting them. Ho also favors the issue of state bonds. S. C. Dartrum Is probably as con vorsant with the road condition In the country bb any man In it; he Bald there were more than two thousand miles of roads in the county, end that a survey must be made before Intelligent work can be'put on them, and he approved the survey as pro posed by the commission. . Dinger Hermann referred to the high compliment paid to Rosebnrg In huving tho ndviBory board hero to consult with tho county court on the wants and needs of the county, he was also strongly In favor of the sur vey and the bond Issue. Other remarks wore made by the visiting gentlemen explanatory of! some things coming up, nfter which II. F. Nichols thanked the advisory board for thflr presence, and assured them thnt their vlBlt would bear fruit. He said that tho work of En gineer Ciintine was appreciated and Hint ho had already done wonderful tilings.
