ROSEBURG, OREGON, FRIDAY, JANUARY It, 1929.
THE CHAMBER OK COMMERCE BANQUET
Annual baniiucU of the chamber of commerce are al
ways more or less optimistic gatherings.
And tho one held last night at the M. E. church waiicize, 'cauee ifa franca to waffles
no exfi-nt'on . tn' wed b nid'n' benlnd ,om"
it) exu.iu.uu. ! tree If a ear thief pointed the mui.
Folks' with brows furrowed with cares and worry, I i of hia a.n ihooter in our dircc-
t!H82 wno go auoui uany pruucfiing uit Kubpui ui jwsaiiiu.-tn:,
find no solace in meetings of
ber of commerce banquets is always of the best, those in at
tendance are in gay spirits, and the speakers have been told
to "say what you have to say and take your seat."
But last night's banquet was not all back-slapping hil
arity. True, there was plenty of optimism for following a
day of spring climate such as Roscburg enjoyed yesterday,
there is little cause to grumble and complain.
' Those who attended the session last night were really
serious-minded and were gathering for the express purpose
, of outlining gome program for 1929 which would bring the
Umpqua Valley into its own.
For years we have hunched back in our easy chairs tell
ing ourselves that "everything will come out all right." The
' slogan, heralded to the world, was "Umpqua I am satis
fied." Now the citizens realize it is the satisfied city that
becomes so lethargic that a booster is looked upon with
scorn.
Roseburg citizens have stripped their coats from their
backs, rolled up their sleeves and are ready to "hit the ball."
Senator Charles Hull, the principal' speaker of tho eve
ning, drove home one important point which this paper
wishes to stress. Greet the visitor with a smile, tell him
about Roseburg, describe the wonders of the valley in such
n way that he will be impressed with your enthusiasm and
broadcast to the world that Douglas county is the greatest
place on earth in which to live.
Let's get together shoulder to shoulder and do some
real real constructive work for our home town. The re
sources of this great empire will never be developed by just
a lot of hnnd-clapping.

"The News-Review is getting better every day," said .'i
prominent attorney last week. Tho editor was astounded
to hear a word of prais-e, for in this newspaper game it is
usually said with brickbats. The attorney, however, con
tinued and cited instances of where the News-Review had
r, -ooped upstate metropolitan dailies with new.i of big oventa.
1'he full time leased wire of the Associated Press brings
;i the readers of this paper all of the news of the day ju.st
as it happens. But this word of praise from a fellow towns
man makes us feel good just the same. '
i0
Hal Hosk, Oregon's thoughtful secretary of state, has
ordered a daily supply of Portland's Bull Run water '.o
quench the thirst of the state legislators during their com
ing session. This by comparison will be a sad reminder of
those good old days when Jonathan Bourne used to hold open
houso in a private suite of rooms in a Salem hotel.
o
The business of being a law enforcement officer is not
nil fun or glory. These men, who jeopardizing their own
lives, last night, pursued a desperate criminal along the
highway while he returned their fire, deserve a great deal
of credit. , .

The Toronto branch of the or

which provided for the recovery of
the lands of loyalists, some of

thj resolution requested that the
I loyalists giving
up their claims
should be remembered by the sum
Of $5,000,000.
James R. Boad, who presented
the resolution, said that he be
lieved the possibility of a reward
might had Loyalists to come for

"We are not taking any proceed
