SUPPORTING YOUR HOME TOWN.
Every man and woman who lives in Roseburg and Douglas
county is, of course, interested in the general prosperity of their
home locality. No one will question the fact that if communities
use home manufactured goods nnd trade with home merchants
it makes for brisk conditions. In turn, it is the duty of the mer
chant to find a market, and the highest possible market at that,
for every pound of produce the local growers have to offer. Cash
tnould be the price paid for farm, orchard, garden or poultry
and dairy products. Cash is then available for the producers and
mechanics, professional and business interests to pay for what
they get. The circle is an endless one and trading is lively, every
body enjoys the benefits of such a course. However, it is too
often the case that some one concludes that he can buy cheaper
from some far away concern, and so makes out an order and
sends for the goods. Just that much money is lost to the commun
ity, and it is very much like a broken cog in a machine that has
been running smoothly. Cash out is a direct loss to the local
merchant. It also is a loss to the producer, because it lessens
the amount that might otherwise be available for buying local
products. If there is a house to build, a bill of lumber needed,
doors, windows, etc., employ the neighbor who is a carpenter, or
buy the manufactured articles of the factory in the home town,
or that are made in your county. Make it a point to employ only
resident labor on all work, public or private, and in town labor
will doubtless show its appreciation by buying of the home dealer.
This practice can be followed by men and women in every avoca
tion and industry, and the habit cultivated and religiously adhered
to, will make for the wealth and prosperity of entire communities
and commonwealths. '

There are something over four hundred members in the lower
house, of, congress, and there are annually about eighteen deaths
among the representatives' from the several states of the union.
During this session of congress there have up to this time been
twelve deaths. Two of these congressmen were killed in automo
bile accidents, eight died from natural causes, and two representa
tives died by suicide. In the rush of every day business affairs
the busy public often fails to note the passing of. men engaged
in national legislative work, or perhaps may sometimes think
that a congressman never dies, but the grim reaper makes no
distinction, and the cares and worry of life appear to weigh
heavily on these men, even to driving some to suicide.

Henry Ford is quoted as saying that there is no shortage
of coal, but alleges that brokers have enormous quantities at 'their
command which they are profiteering in to the detriment of the
entire country. These brokers expect to, and are already demand
ing, a price ranging from 200 to 300 per cent above normal selling
figures. Admitting that Ford may be correct in his view of the
pituation, there is opened up for President Harding and congress
a field for doing a vast service to the public by immediately seiz
ing the coal and coal mines and distributing the product to the
general public. Profiteering in times of stress is nothing short
of highwny robbery.

Going to sleep with a revolver, in his hand cost a Los Angeles

We know is awful bad, ;
But what would living here be worth
In a home without a Dad?
Dad gets up at early dawn,
He lights the fire, lets In the cat,

And who says thanks to dad for

follows:
Manila, March 9, 1899.
Dear Father: I will drop you a few
lines to let you know how I am get
ting along. I am slid well and get
ting along finely. Almost everything
is about the same here as when I last
wrote you.
There Is not much fightin? going
on at present- generally a little every
night hut not much damage ia done.
I think the campaign will commence
when the other troops arrive. Per
haps they will be here the latter part
of this week.
We are still In tlio city acting as
provost guard and ilon't know when
we shall get to the front. It Is ru
mored around that we will go into
the field soon, butwe hear so many
lies that we can hurdly believe any
thing, now. I know one thing that
I lie uncertainty is something awful,
not knowing one minute what you are
going to do the next. One day we
are going home and the next we are
going to serve our time out. I sus
pect we would have been o,n our way
home now if It had not been for these
insurgents.
Kex Is with the regiment now; was
changed a few days ago. He is well
and getting along finely.
This is a hard place for anyone to
try to snve money. There is always
something that one wants. Some of
the boys are genenally broke the day
after pay-day. -
Kred Haynes Is getting along well
now but had a hard siege of it.
I.leul. Hamlin Is getting along
nicely. He sends his best regards to
you as does Dave Shainhrnok also.
Dave wants to get out of here and
get home as soon as possible and I
am with him. He says lie did not
enlist to fight "niggers." I tell you
this country will always be ill trouble.
it Is quite warm here now. 1 sup
poso it is quite chilly at home this
time of the year. I hope that the pic
tures 1 sent got home all O. K.
Well, Ihere is no news of any Im
portance that I ran tell you nnd 1
presume you know, more about tne
situation here than we do, as we
never bear anything.
