That The Review has practically twice the cir culation of any other paper in tlu county we have the facts at hand t. prove. We don't deal In "hot ni." we have the goods and can "hIiow you." How Hoseburg property values are going up is shown by the refusal of a prominent business man of L' percent more for a piece of -property than he waB offered for It only three months ago. It will advance, an other 25 percent by the end of the present year. Another piece of business property that ' has been sought by several persons Is now held about 50 percent higher thim It was a year ago. Street paving has been a large feature In making these new values and we must have a couple of miles more of It thlH year, Formation of a Rose Club to pro mote the culture of more and finer roses in thU city has been suggested. Roseburg haa first claim to the title of 'Tobg city" and it should be made far more than at present a real "city of roses. " ThlB Rose Club movement should be put into being just as soon as possible and every person In tho city should Join It. the object being to plunt thousands more of rose bushes and sen that they are given proper attention. While all kinds of roses grow in profusion here some beautiful and distinctive variety should be adopted as the "Roseburg Rose," and this variety Bhoujd he Included in every rose garden. This rose culture move ment can be carried on with practi cally no expense, and with concerted effort mo At gratifying results will lie attained toward beautifying our homos and our city. For the Information of those Edenbower cltlzuim who took the trouble to sign a statement In snp port of tho character of W. J. Wlilln camp, the alleged (Inorgla murderer recently arrested there, wo wish to say that the report of li Ih suspected pilfering of poultry, etc., was given to The Review by one of the mosl widely known residents of Kilen bower. As we stated at the time, there Is no direct proof that Wldin camp committed the acts mentioned, but the gentleman who gave The Review the report published has Hlnce repealed his statements and adds that he still has no occasion to change his belief. Thus it seems that neighborhood opinion Is divided on this matter, which, after all, Ih of no special Importance, under the ctrcumstnuces. As to the charge ul "yollow journalism" so boldly set up by the Oily News, to which Hie dis senting statement was taken, we have only to say that our Informa tion on this matter came from a man whom that dirty rag would not dare CHILDREN WHO ARE SICKLY MoUiera wlto value Uu-lf ouu cmfori niul tin1 welfare of llu lrcluliln n, whould never ) wulmtil it box (if MoUiur Uny Hw t IWiier tor Cttihlrvii, foruspilimufcrlioutttienrfuxm.

As to Its own contemptible course we have only to refer to a week ago when it filled over a column with the yellowest of yellow slush, (about the Smith-Hale wedding), and since then has printed stuff which a decent man would not rend itlotid In the presence of his children and family. However, we will not dhcuHs that sheet, for it Is as dirty, false und disreputable as it always was. Business and realty deals of im portance are of frequent occurrence of late and several important trans actions are now known to be pend ing. People are Just beginning to realize the value of Douglas county opportunities. With the great wealth of resources which exists In' this county, Roseburg should become as great a city as Spokane within 10 or 20 years. Our timber resources alone could build up such a city here. Our mineral wealth can do likewise. The city or Butte, Mon tana, was built ii ;i from a mineral deposit covering a no greater area limn the known nickel deposits on Nickel mountain west of Riddle. And a city of 10,000 to I!.'., 000 Inhabi tants may be built up in the Riddle valley from that very resource with in the next few years. Douglas county's fruit growing industry, within the next decade or two, could build up a city here equal to San Jose, Calif., which now has a popu lation of over 00,000. Other towns In tho county will grow in like pro portion. Work on two railroads to the coast is expected within the next few months and the extension of the Oregon Klectrlc railway from Salem to Roseburg Is already , promised. People of wealth and energy are looking for profitable Investments and Douglas county offers the oppor tunities they are seeking, with the finest all the year climate thrown in. Prices are still low because de velopments are still lacking and they must remain comparatively low un til these developments are well un der way.- Property values, as well as people, are largely creatures of environment. Property to the present owner is worth only In pro portion to the Income which It brings him. A new owner may quad ruple its value by multiplying Its productiveness. A foundation has been laid. Tho resources are here. .Vow the linger of progress points toward Douglas county and the peo ple are coming. Those who intelli gently grasp tho present opportuni ties will reap the benefits of this irogress. Others will be distanced in tho race. A Common Cold. We claim that If catching cold ould be avoided some of the most langerous and fatal diseases would never bo heard of. A cold often 'onus a culture bed for germa of nfectiouH diseases. Constipation, meumonia, diphtheria nnd scarlet i'ever. four of the most dangerous ind fatal diseases, are of this class. The culture bed formed by the cold favors tho development of the ierniH of these diseases, that would int otherwise find lodgment. There Is little danger, however, of any of these diseases being contracted when a good expectorant cough medicine like Chamberlain's Cough Remedy i med. It cleans out these culture 'teds that favor the development of lhe.se diseases. That Is why this remedy lias proved so universally successful In preventing pneumonia. It not only cures your cold quickly, but niinlini.es tho risk of contract ing these dangerous diseases. For -mlo by all druggists. C l,N.li;i:U KILLS If); IS II I.MSKLF CHI Slli:i. STOCKTON. Cal..

MORE IMPROVEMENTS AT WINCHESTER SOON. Fully keeping pace with our clty'B needs In the way of water and electric light and power supply, Kendall Bros, are going right ahead with improvements on their plant at Winchester. They recently installed there a new dynamo of 250 to 280 kilowatt capacity, to match another machine of similar size already In use. These two big machines are now used alternately and during the summer they will probably be run, one on the night service and the other on the day service. Before next winter they are to be coupled up and operated together, as by that time it is anticipated that the ser vice load will be too great for either of them, even when supplemented by the "south plant" In this city which has a maximum capacity of 95 kilo watts. The regular service here now requires about 280 kilowatts. Another 1 dirge Pump. An order has been placed for an other powerful pump for the city water Bupply. This pump will have a dally capacity of 800,000 gallons and will be operated by its own electric motor of 100 horsepower capacity and with which it is direct ly connected. This pump is of the new turbine type and of the latest approved pattern. It Is to be In stalled within tiO days, assuring a plentiful water supply for this city during the coming summer. Another feature to be added to the big power plant at Winchester within a couple of weeks Is 60 feet of new 6-inch shafting for power transmission from the three water wheels to tho dynamos, etc. This shafting Is to be supplied with heavy new boxings, etc., and the water wheels supplied with now friction brakes. The installation of this equipment will not materially Interrupt the service, however, as the steam power plant there will be utilized during the day or two re quired for putting It in place. Another carload of water pipe for new mains has been received and more Is coming. The district to be paved this year Is to be re-laid, and 4lhor extensions are contemplated. PWlr. J. h.

Professor Unna of Hamburg, Ger many, and Dr. Sabourand, of Paris, France, share the honor of having discovered the hair microbe. Baldness is not caused through a few weeks' work of these hair mi crobes, but is the result of condi tions brought about by their presence. Baldness may not occur until years after the microbes began work, but It Is certain to come soon er or later. The micro oes cut off the blood supply. They feed on the fatty mat ter about the roots of the hair, through which the blood is absorbed. Finally the fatty matter is consumed, the food supply of the hair gone and , It starves and finally dies. J Resorcin la one of the most effec j tlve germ destroyers ever discovered. Beta Naphthol is a most powerful, yet absolutely Bafe germicide and j antiseptic, which prevents develop ment of germ matter, and creates a clean, healthy condition. I Pilocarpine, although not a color ing matter or dye. Is an ingredient well established for Its power to restore natural color to human hair when loss of color has been caused by a disease. Borax, because of Its well-defined softening and cleansing properties,' is most useful in the treatment of scalp and hair diseases. Glycerine acts as a stimulant to the hair bulbs,! and has a soothing, healing and nourishing influence. Alcohol Is in-1 dispensable in medicine because of Its antiseptic, stimulating and pre servative qualities. We want everyone who has scalp or hair trouble to try Rexall "93" Hair Tonic, which contains all these Ingredients. If It does not give you complete satisfaction in every par ticular, we will return every penny you paid us for It, for the mere ask Ing and without question or formall ty.

After six years of sour stomach, of gas eructations, of ner vousness, during which time every meal lay on his stomach like a lump or lead, a man was restored to per fect health by Ml-o-na stomach tab lets. Read what Mr. Hoffman, landlord of the Webster Hotel, writeB: "I suffered misery and Intense pains from stomach trouble for over six years, and all the doctoring that did or medicine I used was of no avail until about two years ago, when I tried a treatment of Ml-ona. The first days' treatment helped me greatly and upon using It a while I was made entirely free from any stomach trouble or complaint what ever. Since tho cure by Ml-o-na I have regained my weight, I eat and sleep well, and never nervous, and my entire general health Is much better." Max M. Hoffman, Webster, N. Y., Aug. 2, 1909.

Under the caption, "Please Read," a pamphlet is being widely circu lated In Oregon, by the Progressive Government League, being practical ly Bent to every registered voter whose address can be secured. This pamphlet proposes to the people of Oregon eight laws and constitutional amendments that will excite comment and attention from every quarter of the state. This pamphlet Is signed, under a compliance with the corrupt prac tices act, by the names of George M. Orion, E. 8. J. McAllister, C. Schue bel, C. E. 8. Wood, Lee M. Clark, H. J. Parkison, Will Daly, Henry E. McGinn and W. 8. U'Ren. In its foreword it lays particular stress on the power of electing pub lic officials' being plainly secondary to the power of nominating them. It prints a speech of Henry E. McGinn against the assembly. It points out that during the operation of the di rect primary the Republican party has increased its percentage of popu lar vote In Oregon and of its mem bers in office. "The direct primary has built up the party, but broken down the machine," is the way the pamphlet states It. It calls atten tion to the complaint that the direct primary permits plurality nomina tions and elections, and declares it 1b not made In good faith by the advo cates of the assembly because the nomination and election of candi dates will be carried on and the sue-, cess of the assembly will largely de pend upon the plurality making the nominations and the majority being divided. The pamphlet next attacks the bill calling for a constitutional con vention, it !b the same wording as an argument on file with the secre tary of state signed by W. S. U' Ren. This sets forth the contention that there is no need of the three elections and attending expenses to change the present institution In seven particulars, as that can more easily and economically be done through the referendum and initia tive. That the danger In such a body being allowed to assemble lies In Its unquestioned power to pro claim a constitution without submis sion to the people notwithstanding any acts being called into being. The states of Delaware, Virginia, Kentucky, Mississippi, South Caro lina, Louisiana, are given as in stances where the people had nothing to say as to the adoption of a con stitution. "The real reason for the constitu tional convention" is that "they want to steal away the people's power," declares the argument on the sub ject. In Article VI of the pamphlet It Is proposed to be amended by estab lishing county government upon the commission' basis, power being vested In a commission of three chOBen by proportional representa tion. They would choose a business manager and such other assistance as might be considered advisable. The recall would hold them in check, but the minority of the citizens equal to one-third would have one man on the commission. Article VII is regulative of the Judiciary, and as proposed to be amended would simplify the proced ure before the Supreme Court, re- NOTICE FOH 11IDS.

The Btriklng feature of thlB pamphlet Is the boldness with which the assembly Is attacked, the simple yet forceful language, and the direct and unequivocal statements and declarations. Every citizen Is urged to declare himself as against any candidate who accepts a convention or assembly nomination. The pro posals in the pamphlet will be bit terly attacked at some points, but the dlscusBlon la sure to be of last ing benefit.
