The matter of appointing a county roadmaster was to have come np be fore the county commissioners at the last term of court, bat it has been deferred and the office which was created at the last session of the legislature will lemain unfilled in Douglas county. A PunxrEALEB reporter called on County Jadge M. D. Thompson to ask about- the matter: The judge Btated that at first the court deemed it mandatory by the law to appoint a general roadmaster, bat after care fully re-reading the law and consult ing different attorneys about the matter, came to the . conclusion that it was not required to make the ap pointment. The law reads that the commissioners' corrt mat, at its firet meeting after the passing of the-law, appoint a roadmaster. Farther, it states that at the January, 1902, term of the court, they shall appoint a suc cessor to fill the vacancy made by the expiration of the road master's term. In the first place it teems that it is entirely optional srith the court whether it appoints a roadmaster or not, and in the second place inasmuch as there is no vacancy to fill, it is not necessary to make an appointment ) . There are several applicants lot the position to this comity and all have petitions largely signed by their j friends. Judge Thompson, however, Holds tnat ine omce is a aseiess ex-1 pense and says it is the general opinion among tbe taxpayers that a ' county roadmaster would be sopei-' flooas and it is considered that the : district enpervisors cnosea by the , people at th June elections are en- tirely capable of attending to the i building aud repairing of tbe roads ! tlroahont the county. Ue6aysthe! appointiuent of a county roadmaster woalJ be a needless expenditure of the taxpayers' mouey. and that a ciTich more sensible plan is to expend direct on road improvements, the; ealary of the proposed roadmaster. Judge Thompson further states that tbe court will continue to diligently look after and guard the county's road aud bridge interests, Commissou er Nichols representing tbe soathern portion of tbe coaLty, Commissioner Young the northern and Jadge Thorn psou the central part of the county, all road and bridge matters being carefully considered by the luree officials, who constitute the county board, at their regular stated tneetltigs. We consider tbe actions of Judge: Thompson and tbe commit--tioners in disposing of the roadmast er qae tion, wise and jndicious and we tnink their disposition of the mat ter will be heartily commended by the county's road eupervisors.and tax payers. AT THE END OF HIS ROPE We have been dealing oat rope lib erally to tbi ReyiBW calf for some time and, exactly as was anticipated, there is about to 1 a self-indicted execution of hanging, on the part df this blatant bovine. Regarding this long-dran-ont tax-list controversy the Review has 6trongly maintained that iis former charge for this adrer Using was only 30 cents per line and that while we w-re doing the same advertising for 25 cenU per line we were ns-ing "Lrevier tjpe ' which is "one sixth Jar 41 r" than the type it used for tbis purpose, hence we were doing the wor! for about the same prici a jecfiT'J by that paper. We will now pioceei to prove both asser tions rant false tooda, aad to do this it is only ic ssiry to go back to the boasted nnio,r" regime of 1'6'JS Oa examinin r th records on tile in the county clerk's flic, we 13 ud the fol lowing bill which was presented by tbe Review at b Slat ch, 189S ter m cf Coanty Coun, which we copy Yerbatirn: "Roseburg, Or , Murch 10, 1898.1 Dooglas County to Keview f-iblir-h-J ing Ck) Dr. lo advertising jeiiu- nuent tax lift tf 580 liuee at 0 cents 1 r line $232 00 ' I .

Jsese we recorded facts which au (jk aovee all prices, examination of tbe county records will fully confirm and which fittingly illnstrate to what depth of depravity the Review will sink and with what flagrant disregard it holds truth and integrity heu it but a selfish or per ponal motive in view. The charge that we are usint; Brevier type in ad vertising the tax-list is no less false. It is Minion type which is as near the Mze of the old tpe used by the Review as is possible to procure, s statement which the Review editor will not aain expose his ignorance by attempting to refute. It has now been clearly bowu that the Plaix plalek's former ht-sertioQ that it is 'publishing tbe tax list at exactly one-half the original price'' was true, and that the Review's statements to the coutrary were lies pure and Mm pie. Wimberly should now be frank and acknowledge that he has again blundered, lied aud will try to do better, aud his much imposed on, but ever indulgent readers, as well as the Plaixpealek, will cheerfully forgive him. The Roseburg papers have been shooting loud aud long for a board of trade since the organization of such a body in Grants l'ass. A meeting of Roseburg business men was held week to" consider the matter aud if possible complete the organization of a board Nearly all of the Oregon cities and towns, which have not already organized. are Dreoariug to equip themselves with a business men's organization. --Grants Pass Observer.

A rousing citizens meeting will be held Tuesday evening for the r)ur pose of perfecting the organization of a board of trade.'

Con&ider able interest has been awakened in this very commendable movement Mince the preliminary meeting of last week aud a live board oi trade is as sured for Roneburg. Referring to Senator A.
