The purpose oi this commission, which was recent ly appointed by Mayor Mlcelll, Is to formulate a new charter for Rose burg to be submitted to the voters for approval or rejection at the regu lar election the first .Monday 111 Oc tober. The present charter of this city haB become antiquated and out grown, and Instead of a continued patchwork of amendments It Is be lieved the better plan will be to adopt a new charter, drafted to meet the rouditiotis of the present. Secretary Orcutt was directed to procure copies of the charters of other cities of the same class ns Knseburg, so as to secure the best ideas embodied therein for incorpora tion In the new charter for Roseburg. Local citizens are also invited to Bub- mlt. In writing, any measures which they deem desirable to have Included in the new charter. Such proposed sections should be mailed to either Chairman Dexter Rice or Secretary A. X. Orcutt. Ileginning next week the commis sion expects to begin holding weekly sessions, each Friday evening, to con sider in detail the provisions of the new charter and to see that these are properly drafted.

During my visits to those here, who manufacture, 1 find them greatly pleased over this campaign. The merchants, too, ait glad to fill up their shelves with today's battle at Nogales. Sonora. The rebel casualties are not known. The opposing forces are fighting at long range. The wounded federals were brought to the American -tde for medical attention. Three of them will probably die. The sharpshooters were concealed In the hills and of fered no opportunity for a return fire from tho garrison. Practically every non-combatnnt of Nognles, Sonora, fled to the American side at the start of hostilities. At WHIT!
