The way to build Rood roads Is to build them this is a first-class mod ern application of IJoraco Greely's famous baying: "The way to resume BMMle payments la to resume.' ' Governor-elect Brady of Idaho, Governor-elect Hartley -of Missouri and Governor Mead of Washington, all three once lived lu Munhattsn, Kan., and the villagers look with more or less contempt upon the neighboring town In consequence. Rvery resident of Douglas county Bhould give all possible support to tne uougioa county Good Heads As sociation organized here Friday after noon. Ilulldlng good roads means a great development for all parts of the county. And don't forgot that the way to build roads Is to go to work and build them. The county court should lead the way, but each community will have to depend large ly upon the activity of its own peo ple to get the work properly started. Boosting doesn't mean "shoving hot air" and letting It stop nt that. It Is doing things that count. Since the Roseburg Commercial Club waB organized about eight months ago with a little over 40 mom bora, It has accomplished a number of things. Not the leant of these Is the brlmrinir about ol a unity of action for the general advancement of Douglas county. Already this action has brought about a doubling of land VBlues In this vicinity. Nat that the land IB really worth much more than It was before., but Its renl value has been brought to the attention of wide awake Investors both at home and abroad and who see the possibility of realizing large returns on their investments at the advanced nrlces. It Is now easy to see that land prices here will still further multiply In the next row years, ror tno unity of ac tion now Just started will accomplish tar greater results than ninny yet realize. ISN'T THIS TOWN A I'KHTTY UOOII TOWN? IF NOT, VHY7 Hqw do you like the town you live In? Pretty good sort of iilaoo. Isn't It? Otherwise you'd move to some other town, wouldn't you? But you don't think much of Mile town, you say. Well. whnt'B tin matter with thlB town? If thero'i anything wrong, lot's all got to gether and right It. All of us live hero, and wu ought to pull together. Nobody living In Chicago or New York or St. Louis or nan h rancisro Is going to do any mil ling FOB US. On tho contrary, some of these cities are doing a lot of pulling FHOM US. They not only pull away some of our host young men as the boys grow up, but they pull away niany or our good American dollars, which ought to be spent right liure, whore they would do the most good What Is your favorito book? The man uroer uainiogue? Ah, so we thought! Now suppose. Just for a change, you read your local paper carefully watch tho advertisements, and if you don't seo what you want ask the home nierrhant for It. Suppose al! ii ui irauo at tiome a little more regulnrly. That ought to make this a Detter town And maybe If we'd keep more of our money at home to build up the mwn we a seep more or our boys at borne. Ei. TIIK (X)M1N0 WF.F.K. NEW YORK, Nov. 21.

"Johnnie, please take that Bquash on the kitchen table over to Mrs. HaBt's right away. I told her yes terday morning that I would send It over by you," Mrs. Walker said to her twelve-year-old Bon, one pleas ant spring afternoon. "May 1 atop and play?" the boy asked. "Why, yes, for an hour," the moth er answered. The Walkers lived on the south side of the North Fork of the Ump qua Itlvor, a mile from tho Basts who lived half a mile up the river on the other side of the stream. The Umpqua flows tiirough the little com munity of Winchester, In western Oregon, a large mountain stream famed throughout that region for th salmon and trout-fishing of Its eddies and ruptds. So wide is tho stream that the only means or crossing Is by boat or railroad or wagon bridge three or four hundred yards below the Bast house. Hardly a hundred yards be low the bridge Is tho power-station ror tne electric light and water-work which supplies Itoseburg, a town of four thousand Inhabitants, five in Hob distant. The power is generated by motors, the water for which Ib held hack by a twelve-foot dum. On the power-station end of the dnm a big criu stands to protect the motors and otner machinery. As Johnnie walked by on his er rand, ho looked with longing eyes to this crib, which was an especially good place for fishing. No one was there. Mrs. Rast was glad to get the squash, but her son Charlie had gone up the river with his father. John at first was disappointed, but he thought he could spend the hour fishing Just as well and so said he did not care much. "Walt a minute, John," Mrs. Rasl exclaimed, as he turned to go back "Your sister Annie wanted some thing. Walt until I got It." She brought back a small dark red box for tho BlBtor and a piece of pie ror tne lad. "Now don t lose that," sho said. "You carry this in your hand all the way. Your slstor wants it mora than anything in the world." "All right, ma'am," Johnnie nns wered, dutifully. "Now don't you lose that. If you do, your sister will bo the mnddetf girl you ever saw," she repeated, nt tho boy passed through the gate, lohnnie looked at the red box care fully. On tho lm:-k was a Jumble of names, suggesting some kind of medi cine, ns nearly as he could tell. "Must bo for Bister's throat," lie thought. From tho bridge, with tho three spntiB of nenrly a hum rod feet each, and one approach equally long, the river looked most enticing. The por tion above tho dnm waB glassy, the bottom revealing every pebble and stone, except In tho deeper ruts. Be low the dam the stream ran like a mill-race ns far as the lad could sec, beyond rtho railroad bridge, down to tho bond under a frowning moun tain. "My, but I thought I Baw a snltnon lump Just below the dam!" he mused to himself. Then ho hurried on. When lie came to tho powor-house ho hcsltntod, then determined to go out on tho crib to sec who was fish ing. No one wns there. Ho looked around. A pleco of flsh-llne was tied to an iron bolt. He stuck the red box with Its precious contents Into his left pocket. Tho boy had only two, and both wero In tho front of his trousers, opening upward, not like the usual side pockets. Tho right one hnd a hole In It, and the left hnd boon sewed up so near to the mouth thnt the box, when he stuck It In, hnrclv slipped down half Its length. When ho hnd pushed It a little fnrlhor down, he pulled tho fish-lino up. U was of unusual quality, there be ing on thn end an unbailed double gut Number 6 hook. On tho other side of tho crib, where tho wnter came out from tho motors, wns the best "chub hole" In the vicinity. Several small chunks of salmon eggs wore b tiered on top of the crib. Tho boy wound up the line and halted thn hook with one of the chunks. Ho fixed the length that he needed, and In a small loop about eight Inches In dinmeter. rolled the several extra feet round his wrist. Then ho slipped up to the edge of tho structure, next to the chub hole, aud gently dropped his halt, the eggs, into tho wnter below. Before It had sank fnr the current caught and car ried the hook and line fifteen or twenty feet from the boy, nenr to where (he small current Joined the main stream. He stood on the edge, barely bal ancing In his Interest. There was a quick flush In the current from where It Joined the Inrgo flood of tho river. Johnnie felt nn overpowering pull. As he fell toward the wnter, he (rasped the red box with his left hand. The cold wnter made him shiver and gasp, but when ho came lo the surface he kicked out Instinctively to keep himself altoat. He attempted to draw back his right arm so as to make a stroke. He could not. The rlsh-llne which he had wound r.,nml his wrist wns drawn taut. He was moving, moving faster than the rnr. rent, toward the main river. The Ind kicked and struggled, but the current and pull of the line were too strong for his efforts. Before manv seconds he knew thnt he wns In the main nrront of the swift river, helnir tnw. ed and swept along slightly faster man tne current. The rate of move ment kept him nn ton of the water but the waves and splashes were con tinually striking him In the face. making breathing difficult. As he wns sweet over the first hml riffle of the long series from the dnm to the bend, ho tried to reach his rlst with his left hand. The red box was still In his hand. The effort fniled. for the arm was drawn too tight by whatever was pulling the wrlggllna ninety noiinds1 of boy. As the lad gained his pres ence of mind be screamed, and kick ed himself toward the shore. He made some headway, the fish at the other end of the line continuing to draw him raster than the current. The river Is spotted bere and there Dy rocky reers, which show their beads above the surface. On one of these, a short distance ahead, there grew a clump of river willows which overhung the edge of the main cur rent. Seeing them, Johnnie struggled with his whole might toward the shore. He did not succeed In get ting close, but yet near enough so inui, as ne noateu alung, he could reach out with his left hand to the two or three longest branches and could touch them. In his hand was the red box. He seemed to realize It for the first time, instinctively clutching it tight er, and at the same time missing his cnance to grasp the willows. The big salmon, for such proved to be the fish that had caught the boy with his own line, seemed to have felt the effort the boy had made to reach the willows, and as. the fish does when brought almost within reach of the gaff, made a more vigor ous effort to gain its freedom, and pulled all the harder and . faster down the current. Before many seconds the lad. half drowned, struck a rock with his foot He attempted to get a foothold, but nerore he could put his weight on his feet he was curried once again Into deep water by the current and tho fish. All the time he was getting weaker. A cranio had seized his right arm, partly owing to the strain and partly 4o the cold snow-water. cJo help was in sight as far as he could see. His head was half-cover ed with water most of the time, and in tne ripples of the stream It was rare that he caught a glance of the surface or the river more than thirty feet away from him. And the time he could stay on the surface was now only n question of minutes. Above the last long riffle before tne whirlpool eddy the river stopped and seemed to hesitate to take the last swift leap. The water here was deep, but Just where the rapid began tho bed rose close to the top of the water. . probably because of this the salmon stopped. The boy felt the line ilncken and his own body begin to unit. A snort distance away was an other of the rocky reefs, on which rew a huge clump of river willows. Ho slowly swam toward it. In his weakened condition the feat was all that he could do. But at last be reached the reef, still holding the red box in his left hand. As he drew his arms up. he felt that he had reached end of the slack In the line between him and the fish. However, he had a food hold on the bushes, and was slowly drawing his body from the wa ter. The fish was once again roused. ind for a few brief seconds It seemed o the boy as If he could not hold to tho bush. Then the fish apparent- y quit lighting. Tho boy crawled onto the narrow ledge and laid tho red box to one side, and then with his free hand ried to disengage hie arm round which the line had tangled itself. lie had barely touched the first knot when a shnrp Jerk Interrupted ns efforts. the fish gave another Urong pull. He braced himself as boBt he ion Id on the ledge, and slowly, hand ver hand, inch by inch, dragged up o the ledge the creature which had towed him a quarter of a mile down he river. It wns a large salmon that had taken tho halt. So exhausted was the lad that It very doubtful If he could have nken tho great "chlnook" from the Ivor but for some neighbors, who ar rived in their boat before the strug gle wns over. Tho salmon weighed slightly over thirty pounds. As Johnnie clambered Into the klff. ho etlll held the red box for Is sister, thinking: "I mustn't forget thnt." One of the men in tho boat onened the box, nnd In It wns some sweet-pea seed ! fhom coitnty i:xcMAa:H. Oak Inn J Owl.

Thaf the opinions that bad been expressed by Secretary of War Wright In favor of free trade with the Philippines for tobacco and sugar are the viewB of President-elect Taft was the free ly expressed belief among those pres ent in the ways and means committee room of the house today at the bear ing on the sugar schedule of the tariff. Secretary Wright's familiar ity with the situation in the Ameri can Asiatic Insular possessions tends to the belief that he will disclose some Interesting facta when he ap pears before the committee later. Edwin F. Atkins, of Boston, a large Bugar plantation owner in Cuba, told the committee today that the reciprocity treaty with Cuba by which its products enjoy a 20 per oent differential in the sugar duties expires next month. He produced two cablegrams from Cuban sugar and tobacco growers asking the com mittee to defer action on these ar ticles. Mr. Atkins urged that the tariff on sugar be reduced and that Cuba be given the existing differen tial on this lower rate. Representative Champ Clark, of Missouri, asked Mr. Atkins: "What Is going to become of the American beet sugar growers when Cuba belongs to tho United States?" "That 1b the question," answered Mr. Atkins. "There is the most im minent danger of this coming about." If you get the reduction in tariff on sugar that you seek," Mr. Clark asked, "would there be any reduc tion to the consumer?" Consumer's Ilenrllt Half Cent. 'There would be a reduction In the retail price of about one-half cent, I should say," was the reply. How do you know that the Bugar trust won't grab up that one-half cent?" "If they could. I would loin them." An advocate for the free entry of sugar was Claus A. Spreckels, presi dent of the Federal Sugar Refining Company, an "Independent" concern or Mew York. "I would be perfectly satisfied If you should finally decide to agree upon free trade, said Mr. Snreckels. who was formerly connected with the American Sugar Refining Company, Known as the sugar trust. "In both raw and refined sugar. I think we are entitled to a moderate protection on refined Bugar, but would prefer absolute free trade to the present scale, under which the sugar trust Is tne principal beneficiary and enabled to enact siecial privileges and condi tions on suears produced in Louis iana and the Hawaiian islands. It Is evident that the country desires a revision of the tariff and exects a reduction of duty whenever it can be shown to be reasonable, feasible and advantageous." Mr. Spreckels was interrogated by Chairman Payne, of the committee, regarding the effect of the free entry of sugar. Mr. Spreckels said that his concern wns compelled to buy its sugar In Java. Porto Rico aud Cuba as tho "sugar trust" had the output or Louisiana and the Hawaiian Islands contracted for. Sprockets Advocutw Free List Upon being questioned by other members of the committee, he said the consumers would get the benefit of the reduction In tho tariff. Mr. Spreckels claimed that those sugar manufacturers who were mak ing sugar at 2V4 cents per pound were not apiiearlng before the com mlttee to give Information about the cheapness of manufacturing beet su gar. He Bold that 25 per cent of the sugar beets produced In this country were raised by Asiatic labor. That the American Sugar Refining Company or his own company needed no tariff protection was asserted by Mr. spreckels. He admitted that he had bought sugar lands In Cuba as a 8eculation, hoping that the Island would some time become annexed to the United States and that as a re- suit the value of those lands would be doubled.

It means that an endowment of J50.000 for the college, and the vlc-tci:-y is being celebrated tonight In a monster rally at the courthouse. It was college day in Albany, and Albany made good. Presbyterians in other parts of Oregon agreed to raise $15,000 if Albany would sub scribe $10,000, and the national college board of the Presbyterian church has promised $25,000 for the college, conditioned upon an equal amount being raised in this state.
