ROSEBURG, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 31, 1927.
COMPLETING
';" The projected Uirii.ijua highway from Diain to Reeds
port involves a large .sum of money, as shown by publixh'id
estimates of the cost of ftn proving thirty-four miles of it and
ljf"CoinU uttinK a bridgo at Scottsburg and boring a tunnel.
But the road will justify its cost many times over. As the
shorU'ht connecting link between the Pacific and Roosevelt
highways, it will be heavily travelled and it will provide per
manent and ready overland transportation for a region rich
iiCforest, livestock, game and agricultural resources. Doug
lag County will bear a big share of the expense of building
thg road, but it will be money well spent. Nothing will de
velop a region quicker than good roads, and the northern
part of the county is deserving of all the aid that can be
given, especially since its residents, by the voluntary forma
tion, of a super road district, are digging into their own
purses to help the project along. Anything that builds up
any portion of the county makes for a more prosperous
county as a whole and appreciable benefit cannot fail to ac
crue to the county seat. Roseburg regards with satisfac
tion the coiinty assistance pledged to the northern Douglas
highway,' lis it did the monetary aid recently assured for the
Tiller cut-off road to Crater Lake. In time the city may
need the support. of those sections for county funds to secure
completion of the Rosoburg-Djamond Lalto highway up the
North Umpipia;i'iver.' If the federal government continues
to; withhold material financial1 aid, in spite of pledged con
gressional pressure, it will be up to the city and county to
bohrilho burden, with possibly some assistance from the
state, .For, thg. J)ian)pid La.W highway must be completed.
It's' too' lilg nil opportunity arf u commercial item to pass up
milch 'longer. Jt takes dollars to build highways, it is true,
but once they are built other dollars flow in, and they Y.
pile up benefits that will be enjoyed Jong after the road
cost has ceased tq exist :in nieniory. , ' .'. ,

.WE'RK GREAT GAMliLliRS. , , ' ':
Americans are great gamblers.- The hidden chance
lures us,.t)ie. pot of gold at the
loiis to Ms nindj! from jimall investments. .1
"."For every' ten people' willing to take a chance tliere is
Due who lies awaka nights scheming to fool 1110111.' ' irre
sponsible and crooked promoters of got-rieh-iuiek real es
tate projects, gilt-edged but unsupported stocks and thous
and other "dreams" find tliere are just as many suckers
nowadays as there used to be three-shell victims at the county-fairs.
Jt has been remarked by a sagacious banker that
you could even sell a gold' brick in America, "if you had a
nice certificate to go with it." ' ; '" ' ' 1 "
' ' One of the new schemes that has been worked to a f raz
lilc in several cities recently is the "hidden key." Promoters
of some new subdivision hide 011 the property a key that
opens a mysterious "prize box" in the tract office. The
prize is valuable it may be a diamond ring, automobile or
you can't tell what. Anyway, a nice shiny sedan stands in
front of the subdivision office. That's the worm.
Hundreds flock to the lots and go over Ilium toolh' and
nail hunting the key to the treasure box. Eventually the key
, is found and the box opened. The lucky one is rewarded.
Rewarded-; Certainly! With a .$100 certificate good as
part payment 011 a lot.
There you are! 'Day alter day, new searchers coine and
find the key and get the nice certificate.
You can't get something for nothing in this country.

BREAKING UP FLOG-IU'LE.
"We'll tell you 'what to print in that paper of yours!"
That, according to the testimony, was what one of the So
pertcn, Ga floggors told II. M. Flanders, editor of the Soper
ton News'. The editor was flogged but evidently he ca'i
print what he pleases hereafter, just as before, for one of the
men was sentenced to three to five years on a charge of as
sault with intent to murder. The courts of the south are
moving in the right direction toward the breakup or this
flog-rule, we've been hearing so much about. Stiff sen
tences are the remedy.

A crusader against alcohol told an Indiana audience that
21,000,000 people who drank before the prohibition law went
into effect have quit completely. The other 1)0,000,000 in

Said Scouty, "Oh, he's gone for
good. Ho ran jusi as we thought
ho would. 1 guess that vou would
ulso run, If rocks were thrown at
you. Wo dldu't want to hurt the
bear, but threw the rocks to give a
scare. It was a hauply little hunch,
and worked out perfect, too."
Then Clowny slid right down the
tree. Ho was us graceful as could
be. The others laughed to see him
slide and land upon the ground.
"Well, here I am," wee Clowny
cried. "And now to reach the other
side ot this wide stream. 1 wonder
where a big plank can he found."
A Ooofy said, with solemn face,
"There are no planks around this
place. You'll have to find some oth

swim?" "Well, 1 don't know,"
wee Clowny cried, "'T would take
me long to reach that side, ' and
anyway, I'm ruther tired and just
don't feel in trim."
And so the whole hunch looked
around, in hope that something
might be found to help poor Clow
ny join tho bunch, but nothing was
in Bight. Then Curpy yelled, in
'"erf ul tone, "Why there's a dan
great big stone, light in the

to helji just right."
"Just jump on it, and have no
fear. Then .one more jump and
you'll be here. I'm sure that la

The writer. Mr. Arthur M. 'Baumi

first-hand knowledge of conditions
which he criticizes.
There is no doubt that our pre

is ridiculously . und extravagantly
unsystematic. Lluprepuredness on
the eve of the world war was ex
cusable because nobody knew there
whs going to be a, war, but every
body may be morally certain that

oowered to put on during that per

would 'be actually in the forest
scattered about the ridees where
they could see and. quickly put out
the little fires that start "the hie

both in forest fire losses und in
expense to the government.
An Instance is that of the tires
