An Industrial Agent Here. The Democrat acknowledges a pleas ant call from Emory E. Smith, Indus trial i. gent of the Southern Pacilic with headquarters at Portland, and Mr. W. A. Shaw, a business man of Portland. They had been doing our county in order to ascertain the needs of our people here, so that the road might in every way poa sible aid them in the industries of the county. The mission is a commendable one and It is to be hoped results in bus iness for our people as well as for the Southern Pacilic. The D knock at man upon being asked suggested that we needed rates that would give us a market for our products. It was also suggested that the Southern Pacific use the efforts to advertise this country that it has the Shasta country, and that the trains be run jo that travelers on the overiands be ab.e to see this valley by daylight in stead of as heretofore bv night, or rather not all. This was easily explained by the statement that the trains needed to go over the Siekiyoua in the day time, which is undoubtedly a fact. Mr. Smith intends visiting Albany again to meet our citisena in a general contervuee. There is an excellent fieid for muiai ben efit, and it is a tact that railroads and people should get closer together in their interests with respect for eaili othra rights. Easily Bilked. Sometime ago agents representing a San Francisco firm canvassed, the coun try about Roseburg selling groceries at alleged wholesale prices. Yesterday al most a carload of these goods arrived and are being delivered to purchasers. With the exception of two or three min or articles the prices charged range from 15 per cent to 50 per cent higher than Roseburg retail prices, and 10 per cent more is added for freight. This w knew to be a fact, having examined several of the bills of goods received by purchasers, and compared them item by i.em with prices at the local grocery stores. Be sides this the extracts, baking powder, and smaller article are not branded, aud are probably of a most interior grade. Roseburg Rtview.
