During the month of September it is expected that both Senators McNary and Stanfield will pay a visit to Oregon, the latter already having signified his intention of spending ' some time in the state at that time. This would be a good opportunity for the people of this section to encourage a per sonal inspection of the North Umpqud highway by the two senators that they may be made better acquainted with the ; value of a through highway to Crater and Diamond lakes. ; There seems no good reason, if the matter was at once taken up with these gentlemen, why they could not be encouraged ; to take the same journey made by a number of local citizens a week ago. This would acquaint them with the possibilities of a through road to the lakes, the feasibility of such a high way and the worth thereof to this county as a whole. There may be a few a mighty few pessimistically in clined people who cannot conceive the idea that by construct ing this road thai a great wealth will be added to this sec : tion of the state. Many people who thought, previous to the construction of the Pacific highway, that the amount of money required to build such a roadway would stifle indus ; try and bankrupt the state and county, are now brought face to face with the realization that it is the best investment the ; state and county could have made. A like result would come ; from building a substantial highway up the North Umpqua to Diamond lake. This road would traverse a section un equalled for scenic beauty. It would open up an entirely new . empire. Thousands of tourists would take advantage of the thoroughfare and many would find such delightful camping . spots along the route that their stay in this county would be prolonged indefinitely. Soon this wild and sparsely settled . country would become the home of many new people and . within a few years much wealth from this source alone ada ' ed to the county. The possibilities of a through road from Roseburg to , Diamond and Crater lakes are just as great as those already ' derived from the Pacific highway passing through this coun ty.. It is ah issue of county-wide importance and should be o appreciated by all our people, and a concerted effort should be made at this time to get the project under way as . quick as possible. Formation, of a pool for the marketing of Douglas county prunes is a step in line with sound business principles and one that cannot fail of profitable result if participated in by all growers whose crops are of material size. Such movements, as experience has shown, are confronted with the prospect of failure if a certain proportion of the larger growers remain aloof, sell independently and thereby enable the speculators to upset the market to their own advantage. Unsold crops and an undermined market affect business con ditions generally in a community such as Douglas county where fruit growing is a dominant industry. For the insur ance of business stability and for the protection of the indus try itself, it is to be hoped that not a single commercial prune grower of the county remains out of the pool. Hazardous speculation by individual growers is hardly justified in the face of business-like co-operation that assures satisfactory profits for all. o Pennsylvania to the fore in the ranks of baseball. Phil adelphia is in the lead, in the American League pennant race, thrtnks to the mettle of a newly built team which in cludes two of our own Portland, Oregon, stars of last year; and Pittsburg has captured the lead from the New York Giants in the National League. Outside of directly interest ed cities in the circuit, baseball fandom generally is neutral so far its the outcome of the pennant race in the American League is concerned. But among all lovers of the game, those in New York excepted, there is supreme satisfaction ever the dislodgcment of the Giants from first place in the Nationals, coupled with the earnest hoic that, for the good of the game, this year will see its pennant monopoly broken, regardless of which one of its competitors lands at the top of the list. - DENIES RECEIVING cms of upward nf f ll.AOA.ftflO In Mil I IONS IN WAD '"'-o " IVlIUUUrtO IN WAR ihe fpd.Tal dlalrlrt court today bv the Ilxihlrhrm shipping Corpora- (Aem-letrd I'm, lmi Kir.)
