Councilman Hamilton said Roseburg had more pavement mail any oiner cuy 01 us i.o 111 me world, aau inciueuiuiiy ine uiueuieu- ness therefor was correspondingly high. Councilman Cobb, who started the discussion, said there were other forms of street surfacing 'which would make the roads passable at all times of the year, give as good ap pearance, and at the same time cost less and make easier footing. He alluded to a form of graveled street, as used In most of the Eastern cities, which Is kept in good condition by being given attention in grading, rolling, and draining once or oftener each year. The item of caring for the big area of pavement here, he explained, was an Important sum every month. Several of the county roads where a good gravel founda tion had been laid aud care taken with the drainage, were mentioned as showing that this plan is practi cal. Mr. Cobb explained that paving had become a habit aud would be hard to break, but in view of the complaints made after the work was ; done, and when it was up to the city . ...llnn'lnna nf flirt 11 QOU- , ments; he thought a cheaper improve-!1" nient ouelit to be substituted. Conn eilnian Eullertoll strongly seconded the change If one could be Instituted, and Mayor Itice expressed himself as much pleased with the turn of events, saying he had been an advocate of such a policy since he had taken the chair. On a motion of Councilman Clark, the street committee was In structed to give the matter an inves tigation and report at a later meet ing.

However, the council were not Inclined to show any toleration In this matter, and favored enforcing the committee's I orders. Councilman Clark said that I many of the residents were merely watching and waiting to see if the 'council would back up the committee in this work and made a motion that the marshal be instructed to have all walks on which all proper and formal notices had been given, put In by the cily and the expense charged against the property. It was explained that there was no doubt but that the amount could be raised, as It con stituted a lien on the property. The committee looking into the Oak street pavement at the approach to the new bridge reported that they ' liatl "ot investigating the matter, ranged soon. Engineer Hicks sub mitted plans for narrowing the ap proach, which were given to the com mittee for reference.

Ex-Secretary of State Richard Olney, of Bos ton, having declined the chairman ship of tho Federal Reserve Hoard, President Wilson is driven to a revi sion of the entire list on which he had tentatively decided. Besides Ol ney, the men President Wilson Is understood to have chosen, were Paul M. Warburg, of New York; Harry A. Wheeler, of Chicago; W. P. Q. Hard ing, ot Birmingham, Alabama; and l)r. A. C. Miller, of San Francisco. Warburg has accepted, and It Is con sidered certain that Wheeler and Miller will follow his example, and it is thought that Harding will do so. Tho presumption in administration circles was that Warburg oi-Hardlng. should the latter accept, will be given the chairmanship. There Is much speculation who will be selected for the filth place, which is still vacant. The men to whom the President has offered iilaces are: Richard Olney, of Boston, Mass.; former Secrotary of State under President Cleveland, to be governor of the board.

Major Burke says General Villa has proven a great friend of tho United States In the Mexican difficulty and gives hliu great credit therefor. The moving picture drama, "Traf fic in Souls." shown last night and tonight at tho Antler's Theater, is one of the best pictures ever shown In Uoseburg. It Illustrates far more plainly Hi a n tlie famous piny, "The Lure," how unsuspecting girts are entrapped and forceahly held as white slaves. Unsophisticated coun try girls, In the city for the first time. Iiunilgrnut girls who have lust ! landed, and the city bred girl, all are . easily trapped. It also shows how 4. the go-betweens and the men higher Jup operate their nefarious trade. Tho ioie of the drama Is a pretty love K story.
