COOPERATION NEEDED Jap Scouts Have Already Announced That Purchasing Agents Will Soon be In the Held to Buy ltouglaa County I.uml. California has on Its ballot at the coming election a bill to exclude the Japanese immigration. There is but little doubt but what the anti-Jap anese sentiment will predominate In California, and that the !) will be passed. This means that the Japa nese in large numbers, will come to Oregon. Many of those In northern California will move northward. Already some of thetr srouts have been In Roseburg and have looked over land in the Umpqua valley. They have stated that within a short time their purchasing agents will be In Douglas county to buy land for thetr colonies. "We do not want them." a local real estate dealer said today, "we have seen what Japanese land hold' org, and what Japanese labor has done In California, and we must nrofit by the mistake and must keep hem out of Oregon. We can do this If all our residents refuse to sell them land. If our real estate com panies will refuse to art for their agents and the people with property to sell are careful that their pur- rhasers are not agents for Japanese settlers, then we ran soon make hem understand thatthelr presen ce is undesirable. That this Is the sentiment df all men employed In the real estate business in Roseburg. is shown by the following resolution which was unanimously adopted at a meeting of the Douglas County Realty Board. Whereas, the undcatraMe foroign emigrant problem is one that Is of vital tninortanre to every American community, and "Whereas, at this time the men- are of the Japanese population in America Is growing Increasingly, so much so, that in many localities they are threatening the very In dustrial, civic and moral welfare of sucn communities, ana "Whereas, Douglas County at the nresent time Is free from nil such unwholesome renditions, being 100 perrent American, 'Tlierff ore, be It resolved hv un animous vote of the Douglas County Oregon Realty Doerd. that wo are determined and will do everything within our power to discourage in every way the Incoming of Japanese labor, Imd buyers or merchants, from settlement in Douglas County, and he It further 'Resolved, that we request all ntrlnttc Americans to loin benrtlly in this Pro Tram of Exclusion aralnst anv and a'l undesirable foreigners, and be It further 'Resolved that a ropy of these resolutions be spread unon our mi nute books and conies furnished to the Roseburg Nevrs-Revlew and to our candidate Ifor State senator, and tht they advtse our boirrt of their attitude on thic'vltal question."

F1.IEK I KAW.K TO KIND FIELD. After circling for fully 20 minutes In a vain endeavor to find a suitable landing place, an aviator driving a DaHaviland plane was forced to give up the attempt and continued on his way to Eugene. The Rowbttrg field Is unoccupied and unmarked. There Is not a sign or siraa! of any kln.l to guide filers. During the pax wek several planes have attempted to land and one without sufficient gasoline to continue on Its trip was forced to risk a passible wreck in ' FORCED LAXDIXU MADE. ' . Sergeant Davis and Observor Davis, flying a DeHaviland for- est patrol plane, were forced to make a landing at llrockway yesterday evening at if: 30. Thetr oil waa running low and they spent tha last of their oil in locating a sultaMe field. Tha landing was made ill a stubble field without damage to the rlane and the aviators bad no trouble In getting away this morning. landing on an outlying pasture lot. Tho aviator this morning evidently had a great desire to land in this city and make every possible effort to find the field. He flew over the city, circled it, and dropped close to the earth in an endeavor to locate the field. He bad evidently been in formed that the field is south of the city, for he covered every foot of the land for several miles to the south 'ry carefully. At last, straight as ai. ' arrow he went on to Eugene, where doubtless he will spread more unfavorable publicity regarding Roseburg.

ERRORS ARE FEATURE Failure to Tighten When Rate Are Full Gave Presbyterians Eight Runs, While Chrtxliain An nexed Only Three. In a game which might be termed a comedy of errors, the Christian baseball team last night was over whelmingly defeated by the Presby terians who crossed the plate eight times while only three On 1st Ian players wore able to square the cir cle. Errors galore on the part of the Christiana, at times when tight ball was most badly needed, allowed the Presliyterlavj to win th" game.
