Oren, Wm. Grimes and Dr. E. E. Mfngus, who were over from Marshfleld Saturday to meet Mr. Harriman, are active good roads advocates. They had just come over the stage road from Coos Bay and that alone was enough to impress them with the necessity for better roads. They expressed the willing ness of the Coob Bay people to join with the citizens of Douglas county In the big Good Roads Meeting to be held in Hone burg the latter part of this month, under the direction of Judge John H. Scott, of Salem, the state good roads booster. The Cooa Bay delegation urge the necessity for a good road between Roseburg and the bay. What is need ed is a road that can be travelled with automobiles at pratcically all Reason h of the year. They believe the most practical plan for building such a road at this time, at the least expense, is to lay a plank road, at least over the more mountainous portions.. They say a road laid with 3x4 and 4x4 flooring, placed alter nately, gives excellent results where tried in the hilly districts. It Is be lieved that with the expenditure of $50,000 by the two counties a road of that-kind can be built, so that a daylight schedule between Roseburg and Marshfleld could be maintained even In the winter, and the summer trips would be a matter of only Ave or six hours. For Borne roads In Coos county, the county court has appropriated two dollars for every one subscribed There is scarcely any one, no matter how vigorous and healthy, who does not need a tonic sometimes. Little physical irregularities upset the system, the appetite fails, digestion is poor, the body eels tired and worn out, and other unpleasant symptoms give warning that the system is disor dered and needs assistance to ward off, perhaps, some serious sickness or ailment. S. S. S. is recognized everywhere as the best of all tonics, nature's medicine, made entirely of healing, cleansing, invigorating roots and herbs, a systemic remedy without an equal. S. S. S. has the additional value of ' being the greatest of all blood purifiers. It re-establishes the healthy circu lation of the blood, rids the body of that tired, worn-out feeling, improves the appetite and digestion, and brings about a return of health to those whose systems have been weakened or depleted. S. S. S. acts more promptly and pleasantly than any other mediciue, and those who are run clown in health should commence its use at once. It will thoroughly purify the blood and tone up the system. S. S. S. is admirably suited for a systemic remedy because it is free from minerals; it may be used without harmful results by persons of any age, and no unpleasant effects ever follow. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA. by the residents of the district. That Is, If the district provided a special fund of $100, $200, $500 or any other sum for road building, the county court would appropriate twice that sum from the county treasury to be added to it. In this way Coos county has been able to secure some good roads. In Douglus county the plan of onoh district voting a speciul road tax, as suggested in The Review a short time ago, seems to be meeting with considerable favor. With the large property holdings of the railroad and big timber land companies in this county, it is easy to see how outside capital can be called on to pay a large percentage of the road building un der this plan. While the local peo ple would, of course, be required to pay their share, all the money would be spent right among them and they would get the roads besides. It is evident that the Hood River people are working along this plan, as we understand that 14 of the 18 road districts In that county have levied special road taxes this year. The way to get good roads Is to build them. The New 1'ntv Ft md and Drug Imw.

Last Wednesday, Thursday and Friday witnessed three days of recre ation nnd enjoyment at Olalla, the occasion being the annual reunion of Oregon pioneers, native sons and daughters, us well as citizens gen erally. The attendance wns larger than for several years past, it be ing estimated that between 400 and ;()() people were camped on the grounds, besides large crowds which ranie and went during the day.

Each day s exercises Included ap propriate addresses by local speak- rs, vocal and instrumental music und recitations. Then there were Meld sports, horse and foot races, ball games, athletic contests, novelty races and a great variety of amuse ments. A dance each evening was enjoypd by the younger people, while around tho numerous campnres gath ered other crowds to listen to the thrilling stories of the experiences of pioneer dayB, or the more modern entertainment supplied by- phono graphs, which enlivened those circles of social converse. On Friday a nall-drlving contest for ladles and a needle-threading content for young men earh elicited considerable Interest. An exemplifica tion of the experiences and accoutre ments of pioneer days, by a Looking Glass lady on horseback, equipped as for traversing a hostile Indian coun try, brought forth rounds of ap plause and was pronounced one of the star features of the occasion. A grand ball Friday night closed the three days of enjoyment. The llerscher orchestra, of Hrockway furnished the music, and the dunctng was continued until daylight next morning. Splendid weaiher prevail ed throughout the encampment and the occasion was pronounced one of the most enjoyable ever held there. o U'o.

When the great Nebraskau arrived at the depot he was met by a special committee of fifty and es corted to the Auditorium Hotel, whoro he wns greeted by John VV. Kern, of Indiana, and their campaign manager, Norman E. Mack, ot Buf falo. The exercises of the day began with a monstor parade, and after It i disbanded, the workingmen cheered Mr. Bryan as he faced the tremend ous throng and started to speak. Mr. Hryan, spoko, In part, aa follows: "Were I to speak from a text 1 ' would select a passage from Pro verbs, one furnished in the words ot Solomon when he declared that 'bb a man thlnketh in heart, so 1b he,' This Is Bible doctrine; It Is com-' mon sense. I begin my speech with this proverb because I want to Im press It upon the minds ot those who listen to me that tho world Is grow ing toward brotherhood and that our nation Is leading the way. There ts more altruism In thlB country than' in any other tn the world. Labor or ganizations are a part ol a great movement of the masses toward clos-' er fellowship. Some aBsume that ' labor Is lawless, that to settle a labor question permanently we need only to enforce law rigorously. But we must remedy abuse by law If we would Insure respect for an obedi ence to law. A long stop toward the elevation of labor to Ub proper posi tion in the matter of deliberations may bo found in the establishment of the department ot labor, with a cabinet ofllcer at Its head. The re- publican national convention did not deal candidly with the laboring man ' on tho subject of the writ of In junction.
