In times past the city has 'in a feeble
manner attempted to have the Standard
Oil Company's storage tank in this city

According to Lincoln Steffens this
would be the one country of all the earth
if we devoted ourselves to patriotism
with the same zeal we devote ourselves
to sin. It would be interesting to know
just what busy community Mr. Steffens
bas been visiting. ,
Our contractors are all busy looking up

j. J. Hill, president of the Great North
er Railway,, has recently brought a hun
dred or more Southern negroes to Wash
ington and installed them as section crews
along the line of road.; It would appear
that this might be , way to settle the
labor question. The negro is here to stay;
he belongs here, and hardly any laboring
man has aught to say against ' him. By
supplanting Japanese and coolie laborers
with the big, burly, colored man, we be
lieve the trouble of Asiatic immigration
would adjust itself. The people are inter
ested in Mr. Hill's experiment with the
colored laborer, and hope rt will be suc
cessful. .Roseburg News. '
A correspondent from Creswell com
plain bitterly that the S. P. Company
has supplanted white men on the section
by Japs.' Other localities are having the
sanpe experience, which fact does not
increase the railroads' popularity nor
cause the white men to love the Japs
more. A signiflcent feature of the com
pany's action in the labor situation, is
the fact that on the more dangerous
mountain sections, where extreme care-,
fulness is necessary to insuro safety to
the traveling public, white men are re
tained, and to this time no notice of wage
reduction has been received. This fact
seems to demonstrate that the S. P.
Company has, little faith in the work per
formed by Japanese.
