Finest summer resort weather Id the land, all euiunier In Douglaa county. Aa usual, crops are turning out "better than ex;cted." Oregon Is alright every year, al'hough some year may be better tbao others. It has often been said that Seattle was built on wind. Yet It is evident that the Seattlelles have been able to "raUe the wind." for the L. 8 pcstoffic btiFfnees there for the past year shows that to be murh the larg est city in the Pacific Northwest. Thousands of eastern people are coming to Oregon this year and the almost universal verdict among tbem upon arrival Is that this country "looks good" to them. "Patronlre home Industry" is a good motto aJI the time. The eastern mall order houses have no Interest In you whatever, except to get your money. Patronize your home dealers and the money may come bark to you. but ii it is sent east It it gone forever. During the Strawberry Carol va! here two months ago "The Kno-ker" was burled. -Vow there seems to be a sprout springing up here and there. If you see one, cut it down and salt the stump, as you would an noxious weed. We hare no room for nich here. This country has wonder ful natural advantages. Don't let Its growth be hampered by any growth of a new crop of knockers of any kind. No master what the other fel low does. It's up to you to boost. Roseburg Is learning a valuable lesson, and -thai Is that cities are built up by the people who live In tbem and do not wait for outsiders to come and build it up for them. Our street paving work, now well under way, is laying the foundation here for a real city. This fact is 'becomlns known abroad and many other people will soon be coming here to reside Finding conditions congenial they wlll soon induce their friends to fol low. Thte will bring others, ard so on. Yea, paving Is a good Invest ment. CHICAGO'S POUCR H ItOTTKN' WITH O HA FT. Chiefs Confidential Mm. rvfllfct.il 1MXK Monthly From Hn.tli. N, Then Distribute It.

Once more baa Galveston been ks sallfed by the storm-driven makers of the Guif of Mexico, and ink time there Is no story of death and disas ter. The seam-all has done its work; It stands as solid, apparently, as the foundations of the globe. The history of the Galveston sea wall dates from Jfcto. In Septem ber of that year, while the convention was in seeeton which framed the pres ent constitution of Texas, a hurri cane swept in from the Gulf, of approximately the same violence and duration as that of recent record. Having la mind the frequency of such storms and their disastrous con sequences. Judge William P. bal Unger. a Galveston citiren. a lawyer of note and a member of the consti tutional convention, introduced a pro vision, which was adopted, granting all counties and cities bordering on the Gulf of Mexico the right to Issue bonds (or the construction of seawalls and breakwaters. Galveston did not act upon this provision. On the 20th of August, 1886. another severe rtorm swept In upon that city. Im mediately following that. Judge Hal 'inger addressed an open letter to the citizens of hie town, calling at tention to their powers under the constitution and warning them of the necessity for the protection which the urovieions of lb at Instrument per mitted. This letter provoked much liscussion. but no action. The night of September 8. 1900. is memorable In the history of Am erican disaster. Galveston was nearly obliterated from the map by the tugry waters of the Gulf. The loss of life and property was nothing hort of appalling. Judge Rallinaer was long since dead; but upon the subsidence of the flood waters, and ifler the first breath of relief from the horrors they bad occasioned, his irgent appeal became active, and to xood effect. The result was the con struction of the famous seawall. George W. Bosch ke. engineer In 'harge of the seawall construction. ha given the following interesting facta concerning it: The length of the wall is 17.593 feet. If rests upon niltnr foundation driven for 4 3 'eet in the ground beow mean low water. The wall is sixteen fe-t at he base, sixteen feet high and five 'eet wide at the top. curving from op to base, and protected on the lulf side by a double thicknets of iheet-pHing and by a rip-rap of gran ite twenty-aeven feet wide and from hree to seven feet in thickness. The xst. including the purchase of a i AO-foot right of may, was tl.'.oo.- 000. Building this wall broueht wKh it he problem of regradlng the entire -It y of Galveston. The op of the -eawall Is seven and one-half feet -.bove extreme flood-water mark. prior to September 8, 1 900. and something more than a foot above he flood mark of that year. As es 'abllBhing a proper contour for the tty. and as furnishing a movt ub tanilal backing for the seawall It self, Galveston was raised from eight feet above mean tide on the bavside to seventeen feet at the seawall -n the Gulf side. This grade gives a tne of one foot in every lfttto frim he bay to the Gulf, and will forever revent a disastrous depth of wa'er :n the city, even If a storm should 'e so violent and long continued as to tverlap the barrier that has been raised.
