Detailed Plans arc U be Drawn fur
the Coimiwrciul Club.
Another interesting meeting of the
Koseburg Commercial Club was held
Monday evening. Assistnat Secretary
Zurcher was instructed to circulate a
petition to the postmaster general
for the establishment of a free mail
delivery system in Roscburg, and a
committee of five members was ap
pointed to confer with the city coun
cil on having all the houses in the
city properly numbered as required
before such free delivery will be
established. The matter or distri
bution of the new booklets on Rose
burg and Douglas county was discus
sed, but the matter was left without
further action, the present distribu
tion being about 200 per day by the
assistant secretary and local citizens,
most of the booklets being sent east.
The Harriman Homeseekers' Bureau
has 5000 of the 20,000 booklets
printed and is distributing them
through their various agencies.
Showing the country around Hose-
j burg to newcomers was discussed
and the members of the club having
their own vehicles agreed to share
t in seeing that this is done. It do
I velnped that a good many strangers,
; are now arriving here and consider-J
able attention has been shown them
: by club members. This will be given
: still better attention hereafter.

PORTLAND, Or., July 13. Of the
17 "Heney cases" land fraud in
dictments yet to be disposed of,
only half will be tried by T. C.
Becker, special assistant to the At
torney general. The remaining cases
are to be dismissed. This was ono
of the objects of Mr. Becker's trip
to California to confer with F, J .
Heney .
It has long been generally under
stood that there were a number of
cases in which the government had
small hopes ol' success, while lu oth
ers the government has a better
chance.
The good cases are said to be
about nine leaving eight which are
doubtful, weak or unnecessary. Some
me during the Summer, when the
me Is considered Judicious, Becker
expected to dismiss the eight cases.
Is possible, however, that he may
leave this duty for Heney wheu the
tter come to Portland in November

sioner of the general land office.
Among those which may be dis-
issed Is the Indictment against
George Sorenson, charged with offer-

the latter was United States District
Attorney; the case against J II .
titchins, John Cordano, J . 11. Hall

W. J. Aniiitagv Loses Another Drug
Store (it Arletu.
For the second time within a
month, W. J. Armltage, a former
resident of Myrtle Creek, and well
known In Roseburg, bus sustained
tho loss of a drug store by tire at
Arleta, a suburb of Portland, Oa
this latter occasion a real estate of
fice, a grocery store and a bouse
were also destroyed. The fire Is said
to havo been of Incendiary orlgtu.
due to an alleged "bllud pig" con
ducted in the drug store. The Port
land Journal, of Monday, July 23,
has this to say lu regard to the affair:
Armltago bad just about closed a
deal for the Bale of his drug store to
William 11. Miller. A month ago he
was operating a drug store across
the street from the one that bruued
this morning. It burned to the
ground, and the Insurance has not
yet been paid. Armltage, who owned
the frame skating rink building
across the street moved la there with
a new stock.
There has beon considerable trou
ble lu Arleta and Kern Park over the
operation of the drug store. It was
said that a great deal of whiskey has
been sold In there, and that the
place had been the hangout for men
of the district. All day yesterday
neighbors snld they heard men In
the drug store carousing, and Baw
several leave by way of the rear
door. It is said there was a fight In
the store last evening that threaten
ed to bocome serious.
Although mauy explanations of
the cauHo of the fire were offered by
the residents of the little suburb this
morning, no one seemed to know de- .
finitely what its origin was. It was
suggested that some enemies of Ar
mltage might have burned the place
In order to rid the town of a blind
pig, hut as a fire In the drug store
would necessarily destroy surround
ing property. It Is not bolloved that
anyone would have gone to that ex
tent. An Investigation will be con
ducted by tho insurance companies,
however, to ascortain how and by
what the fire was Btarted.
