ROSEBURG — A Rose- burg car dealer has come up with a unique sales gimmick — ‘Buy a car, get a gun.” The sign went up in front of Earnest Auto Sales last week, the same day 200 people ral- lied at the Douglas County Courthouse in support of the Second Amendment. Anyone who purchases a car from the lot will be given a certificate that can be exchanged for preselected firearm from Roseburg Gun Shop. The value of each fire- arm averages around $300, the News-Review reported. If the customer is ineligi- ble to receive a firearm under federal, state or local laws, then the certificate will be for- feited. Only one certificate given per purchase, made out to the vehicle’s owner, and it’s nontransferable. Customers must be 18 years or older to participate and the customer is respon- sible for all background fees, taxes and additional costs. Owner Jeremy Magar said he thought up the idea three years ago, but only decided to go ahead with it after hearing about the rally. He hopes the attention increases discussion about gun rights, something he feels is being threatened. “It’s not just a sales gim- mick,” Magar said. “It’s to raise awareness that people are going after our gun rights.” Magar worked on the sale for weeks before finalizing it and putting up the sign. He spoke with the Oregon State Police and several attorneys before approaching Roseburg Gun Shop with the intent to do a limited-run sale. Preston, an employee at the gun shop who did not want to give his last name, said that the gun shop recommended the use of sporting rifles as opposed to handguns as fed- eral law requires a person to be at least be 21 years of age to purchase a handgun from a licensed dealer. “A small business, Earnest Auto Sales, is trying to be local friendly, support the Constitu- tion,” Preston said. “For Rose- burg, Douglas County, hunting and recreational shooting is a big part of society, and he’s trying to show that he supports that.” The Douglas Board of Commissioners recently voted to place a Second Amendment Preservation Ordinance on the ballot in November. It would give voters a chance to reaf- firm their rights to bear arms. This includes semi-automatic weapons and high capacity feed systems. Magar paid for 10 rifles of four different models, all sporting rifles, to use for this sale. Though initially planned for one month, Magar said he will consider extending it if all goes well. “I wouldn’t mind keeping it going and have that being my thing,” Magar said. “Who doesn’t like free guns?” Lakeview 41/75 Ashland 51/84 REGIONAL CITIES Tonight's Sky: Mars in retrograde motion today through August 27.

A blown fuse at a Youngs Bay power substation caused the outage, Pacific Power spokesman Tom Gauntt said. A downed tree disrupted power lines in the Youngs Bay area, which may have played a factor in at least part of the outage, Gauntt said. A power outage this morning affected more than 7,000 Pacific Power customers in and around Astoria.

W pc pc s pc s s c sh s pc s s pc pc t t pc s s s pc pc pc pc s Ranchers work together to protect property from Oregon fires Associated Press SALEM — Ranchers came together with heavy equip- ment to protect their homes and livestock from a series of fires in central Oregon. Lightning sparked two fires last week that have com- bined to burn 179 square miles of heavy grass, sage and juniper, the Capital Press reported . Ranchers evacuated cattle and used their bulldozers and equipment to dig fire breaks. “All the ranches, we took pretty much everything we had,” said Joe Pechanec, the cow boss for R2 Ranch. “It was really kind of heartfelt.” As many as 50 volun- teers, including ranchers, friends and family members, along with firefighters from the Bureau of Land Manage- ment have joined the effort, Pechanec said. Firefighters expect to have both fires contained by July 6. “I think we’re going to be OK,” Pechanec said. The fires have scorched all 18 square miles of R2 Ranch’s Bureau of Land Manage- ment range along with about 4 square miles of private grassland owned by Robert Pamplin. Ranchers won’t be able to let their animals graze on the affected land for two years, meaning they will have to buy hay to supplement feeding. Pechanec estimated he may lose up to $30,000 this year on his hay costs. BLM staff will work with ranchers to accommodate grazing needs and discuss appropriate land management, said Justin Rodgers, a range- land management specialist for the BLM in Prineville.
