ARE YOU FOR A PUBLIC LIBRARY?
PRUNts
PICKM5
Br BERT G.BATES
REBEL GENERAL HAS
E
Are you for a public library building for Roseburg? It should
be needless to ask such an absurd question, for we know that a
Droeressive community the size of Roseburg should not be lacking
in this respect, but we want you to express your wishes at the
voting booth next Tuesday. This is the only conclusive way to
cinch a library for the city. Those persons who have been most
nrominent in the movement for a public library building and the
full equipment thereof, have been behind the movement for a long
period, and it is little wonder that their patience has not been
exhausted tfefore this time.
But, we are glad to say, there is no such thing considered as
"leaving the ship" right now when the prospects were never bet
ter for concerted effort to establish this much needed acquisition
to the city's welfare.
The question is being placed before the people as it rightfully
should be. All will have the opportunity of sharing in the bene
fits to be derived from voting a bond issue to carry the project to
a reality. And it is really distressing to note the manner in which
the public generally has tossed about this very important asset
to the city's accomplishments during the past few years without
definite action.
However, the course is now open for concerted effort and de
liberate action and there should be no question of the ultimate
outcome of the proposed bond issue. It should carry almost unani
mously. But to do this it is going to be necessary for the
. people of Roseburg to shake off that usual lethrgy displayed on
election day lack of responsibility for the welfare of their own
home town and get to the voting booth and mark a ballot- You
cannot get anywhere by staying home and letting the other fel
low do it- This means defeat.
For once and for all, let's put the library project over with a
bumper vote and clear the slate for other progressive matters
that are constantly commanding the public's attention.
Two propositions are before you as to locations for the library
building one the A. C. Marsters home, the other adjoining the
Howell apartments on Jackson street. First, vote yes on the bond
issue, then select one or1 the other proposed sites and vote yes on
tliis measure.
Let's go over the top good and strong Tuesday. But, in or
der to do this, it will be necessary to get out and vote. You
won't get anywhere slaying at home and letting the other fellow
do it.

Calling at this office today was a local citizen to comment on
the "City Beautiful Campaign" now taking good root in this city,
and he was wondering if the local telephone company was at
tempting to knock the program into a "cocked hat" by some crude
repair work being done on North Main street. Telephone poles in
that vicinity that are on the verge of toppling over and should be
replaced by neat, substantial poles, are, on the contrary, receiving"
a patched job in the shape of a shorter pole being set in the
ground as a brace, making a most unsightly appearance to the
eye. In conversation with Manager Farrington we were inform
ed that the company is experiencing some trouble in getting the
proper poles used by the company, which are of eastern cedar,
and that the particular work in question is of a temporary na
ture to give the poles sufficient strength to carry a new and
special service to be established with the Coos Bay section, and
that it was necessary to make these repairs at once. Main street
residents are not taking kindly to the proposed improvements
and hope work of a more substantial and pleasing nature will
soon be put into effect.

Your income lax return for 1023 must be mailed tomorrow.
Not later tlian the 31st of the present month your state income
tax report should reach the tax department at Salem. Then you
have about five days to square yourself with the county for last
year's taxes. Who was it that said a tax reduction campaign was
going on in this state? And who was the distinguished gentle
man that made reference to cutting taxes in two? The greater
tax reduction talk the greater increase in the amount you are
compelled to pay is conclusively demonstrated in Oregon today.
All the promised curealls are fading into oblivion. But, in the
language of a once prominent circus manager, the "people love to
be buncoed." They are sure sucking a nicely colored stick of
candy dipped into a long glass of pink lemonade artificially
colored by a lot of campaign bunk spread throughout the state.
