HASAlEFIflM! i Belief in Roseburg Expressed; at Booster Meeting NUMEROUSSPEAEERSCONCUR Practical Suggestions Made at "Get Togttutr" Meeting at Commercial Club Big There was a very large attendance at the Commercial - Club's get together meeting Tuesday evening and as a result local differences will probably be laid aside and a greater unity of effort will prevail for th! advancement of Roseburg and Doug las County. Hon. Dexter Rice acted as chairman, wielding the mammoth gavel taken from the knockers' club and Introducing the sieakers In a happy manner. The addresses in response, while being occasional ly interspersed by witty illustrations, were unanimous In the get-together spirit which speaks well for the continued advancement of Roseburg and Douglas County. Among tho responaes were: Hon. J. H. Booth apoke of the great natural advantagea with whi li we are surrounded and which are not being utilized to any adequate de gree. He expressed the belief thai the club should unite on some defi nite plan of action toward the de velopment of these advantagea and resources, or It may as well abandon Its existence as a Commercial Club. Hon. A. C. Maraters spoke of re cent differences In the community and held that opposition often gives life to a club or a community. Just as competition brings out the best ef forts in opposing bualneas enter prises. He expressed the belief that when anything of general Importance Is at stake that the people of Rose burg can be depended on to lay asid local differences and put It througii. J. W. Perkins expreased the belief that ail who were present at such meetings as this were there for the common aood of the community. That all should have some worthy object before them and strive to at tain It. Hon. O. P. Coshow advanced a practical line of thought by suggest-, Ing the building of first-class high ways to Douglas County's only sea port Gardiner or a railroad If practicable. Also roads to Crater Lake, Diamond Lake, and other places: which would be of great value to the county. We have here a mag nificent country, with natural f aourcea and scenic beauties unex celled. TheBe should be developed. The tourist travel alone would In few yeara repay, the coat of building the roads mentioned, la hia belief. Hon. J. A. Hnchanan had observed no serious differences In the com munity. Judging from his contact with the people In general, all will pull together for the common good. Robt. E. Smith quoted the time honored maxim. "United we Btand. divided we fall." He believes we A Bag in the Bank is Worth two in the Hand Don't be criminally foolish and keep your savings hidden away at home, or carry them about with you.

The plan of arousing general In terest In trap-shooting was put tn.o practice by the American Game Pro tective and Propagation Association comprised chiefly of the manufaitur- ers of arms and ammunition In this country. It numbers among its non- orary and advisory members The.v dore Roosevelt, Henry I... siimsou, John Burroughs and Dr. Henry Van Dyke. Its purpose is thus summav- lied In the following paragraphs an an explanatory pamphlet: "The association stands for laws preserve, protect or increase tne aup- ply of American game." Continuing the pamphlet says: "This country stands today at the parting of the ways In the matter of field sports. It faces today the ques tion whether free shooting shall con tinue or whether the European aya- tern of preserves and posted landu i Is to become universal. The assocla-l tlon does not believe In the principle that only men of position and wealth should have the privilege of taking game with the gun. It believes that the average citizen and the poor man j should have their opportunity. These men must get their hunting close at hand or not at all. Without the beni.-J fit of game laws their opportunLy for recreation will become lost foi ever." Scores to Date.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 17. Tw.-i thousand marines, four thousund bluejackets and at least six regl nients of infantry were this after noon ordered held In readineaB to sail for Cuba to assist President Gomez, If necessary, to suppress the threatened revolution. This action follows the note issued by the State Department yesterday that the I'nl ted States would Intervene unless the veteran organization of the re public ceased to nullify the laws guaranteeing a republican form of government in the laland. It was upon reports of Minister Beau pre that the note was based. Minister lleaupre reported from Ha vana that in defiance of a decree Is sued by President Gomez, forbidding olficers of the army and rural guards to participate In politics, many army officers and rurales attended a meet ing Sunday night of the National Council of Veterans, an organization of veterans of the Cuban war of In dependence. Such participation aU) Is prohibited by law. The veterans have been active In the past three mouths In attempting to have displaced from the civil ser vice persons who sympathized witt the Spanish cause in the rebellion. Press disputches today indicato that the veterans were threatening to coerce members of Congress to nullity the law regarding the partlripatluu of the military in politics. This move convinced the State De partment that the situation was the most serious that has presented it self since the veterans' move began. It has been evident to the department that President Gomez was powerless to assist the movement unless he re ceived substantial aupport from the outside. Must Settle Infernal Strife or lose liiilepciHlcnce. HAVANA. Jan. 17. President Gomez conferred today with leaders of the veterans' movement and rep resentatives of all political parties to frame a reply to the I'nlteJ States' warning of Intervention. Tho belief is general that Cuba's Inde pendence Is gone If American troops again occupy the islands. Gomez ex pects to reply that Cuba Is able to prevent any outbreak. Kfforts are being made today to conciliate Gen eral Nunei, the veteran leader. Nunez said he wouldn't consent to American occupation. "If Americans Invade, we'll fight them," he said.
