Stanton The editor of The Oregon Statesman, published at Salem, apparently doesn't know how the other; half lives. He ought to try coming to Roseburg. In an editorial entitled, "They've Been Working on the RR," the Statesman says: Yt Oldo Southern Pacific has bttn working on Its rail road and not just to pass tho lima away, ailhar. Tha objact of SP's energetic ranovating and modsrnizlng Is you guassad it tha lucrativo Portland-to-San Francisco and vice versa trade. First came the Shasta Daylight streamliner which leaves Portland in the morning, hustles at some pretty frantic rates of speed through some of the most breathtaking scenery in the West all tha livelong day, and arrives in Oakland that night. Salem residents who've made the lourney usually re turn In a sentimental mood about the Shasta's soft seats, pastel colors schemes, coiy tavern cer and high-class (and high-priced) meals. , But if you think the Shasta's something, wait till the new Cascade comes a-diesellng around the band when it goes into service August IS. This super-speedy streamliner will have eight sleeping cars for it travels at night and no day coaches. Every body will have regular beds no more upper berths and a private washroom with all modern conveniences. Not only . that, there are Individual air conditioning and big picture win- , dows In case you want to stare out Into the night at your own reflection, we suppose. The Cascade boasts a three-cer "Cascade Club" for dining and lounging. And the fares remain "standard." This newest of trains will make It possible for a San Francisco businessman to leave the bey city attar office houra in the afternoon and arrive in Portland In time for work next morning. If he wants, he can go on Into Seattle for lunch that afternoon. Thus the railroad Is finally retiring the wheezy old night- ' rattlers and offering the public transportation which will car tinly give competition to the airlines. Oh yeah? Has the editor of the Statesman seen the "famed" South ern Oregon Nightcrawlcr, recently ? . ' Retiring "wheezy old night-rattlers?" No, no, a thousand times no! . More wheezy than ever, the Nightcrawler still puffs and chugs and loafs along its bumpy milk route and anyone forced to use it must "rise up early in the morn." Winston By MRS. GEORGE BACI1ER Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Mason have left on an extended vacation In Canada, Mr. and Mrs, Archie Wilson have resumed management of their place of business, Wilson's Fruit and Vegetable market, in Winston after a year'a absence.

By ViaJmttt S. Variin Births At Mercy Hospital Quakes Leave 40,000 Homeless; 270 Killed i BOGOTA, Columbia, July 12 Colombia sped relief today to tho rich coffee-growing section 230 miles northeast of here where 270 persons were killed and 40,000 left homeless in devastating earth quakes Sunday. Cold and heavy rains hampered relief work. Electric power failed and people groped through darkness searching for loved ones or just wandered aimlessly. Images of saints were set up in shattered squares and grief-ridden persons knelt before them for hours. Hundreds of victims were living in parks and tents. Troops buried the dead in make shift graves to avoid an epidemic. They stood guard to prevent loot ing of the shattered towns where destruction was heaviest. JAMES R.

The amazed fisherman beat it off with his stick, but the next wave brought it in again this time more determined to have a bite off Mr. Brown.
