TO OUR PATRONS AND FRIENDS.
With this issne of the Plaixpealeb,
Mr. II. H. Brookes, a veteran news
paper man and editor, of Amarillo,
Texas, becomes associated with ns in
the publication of the paper and the
business of the office. The new part
nership or firm will be ityled, The
Plaindealer Publishing Co., Brookes
& Conner, Editors and Proprietors.
3Ir. Brookes, under this new order of
thiols, will become editor in chief
of the Plaindealer, while the writer
will act in the capacity of associate
editor and business manager. All
debts contracted by the old manage
ment prior to OcL 1, 1902, are as
earned by the writer and will be paid
by him upon presentation of bill,
while all old outstanding accounts
are now dne and payable at this office
in order that the old books may be
closed and a complete new set opened
at once.
A comparison of the paper, busi
ness and office equipment today
with what it was when the writer as
sumed its management three years
ego, will show remarkable strides
forward and marked improvements
in every department of the office and
business. Much new and valuable
type and machinery Las been added
to the plant, cnr subscription list has
been increased SJ per cent and the
lob printing and advertising patron
age of the office and paper has more
than doubled. Where one man was
employed in our mechanical depart
ment three years ago, three job
printers can barely handle the busi
ness today. This condition is most
gratify to the writer, who, however,
feels assured that by far greater im
provements and progress will be
Doted in the paper, plant and busi
ness in a few months under the new,
than during the entire three years
noder the old managemenL
In conclusion we wish to say that
Mr. Brookes' identity with the firm
and paper will be noted, at once by
our many readers, and he will be glad
to meet and tnuke the acquaintance
of the Plaindealer s many old. as
well as newly acquired friends
and patrons.
Thanking our host of staunch
friends and patrons who have stood
by ns so loyally in the past and
soliciting a eontinnance of their good
will and patronage as well as a liber
al share of the patronage of the
many energetic and wide-awake
business people who are rapidly fill
ing our towns and county, we re
main as ever,
Tours Respectfully,
W. C. Conner.
TO OUR NEW FRIENDS.
In assuming charge of the editor
ial columns of this paper, we do so
with a great deal of diffidence, be
cause we are a stranger in a strange
land, but never was a stranger more
kindly received than we have been,
for which we return our heartfelt
thanks. As to the future policy of
the Plaindealer nnder onr adminis
tration, it will be unflinching and
truly a republican newspaper "with
opinions of its own to eipresa re
garding men and measures; and onr
effort will be to build it up so that it
shall by merit be regarded the
leading republican paper of Southern
Oregon. At the same time especial
attention will be given to building
op and fostering every legitimate
enterprise and in eyery question of
moment before the public, the Plain
dealer will speak out in no uncertain
sound. In dealing with every sub
ject; of interest we shall endeavor lo
give fact?, or what we honestly I
lieve to U facts; and should we mak
a mistake we will most willingly cor
rect t!i same and give as great
prominence to the correction as had
been feivrn to l be article calling for
correction. iJearding news items
or ffiairs Mousing to the public,
p'. as j do cot ask ns to refrain from
"mentioning u" in the C3lumns of
the paper, for we cannot do so, for
that is what onr readers pay for, and
to a great extent it is our stock in
trade, and bo it about 6iint or sinner,
niqlti-millionaire or beggar, if it is
good news itern we will pnllih it it
brought to our attention, for nine
times out of ten the parx-i tint does
not publish a news item K it fccnoped
by the "'bed newspaper ni;n nross
the street".
Regarding the office equipment
and so forth, it ia the iuieution of
the new partnership to pnt in en
tirely new presses of modern make
that will do the work for a city five
times as large ax ltosebnrg. In fact,
we are feoing to anticipate, in the of
fice eqaipmen, what lloseburg will
be in a nbort limn.
Then ih r b a little matter we
want to explain; and that if, pleat e re
member that we tsre a stranger; that
every citiziu enn know and remem
ber our name and face at first tight,
but we have a failure of eye&ight, sol
that to reaiem er the faces and
pamea of uun-r nls of citiz'ni will
take us some time to accomplish.
Now, if we fail to remember you
please remember that it ia oor afilic-
tioa and do not fail to apeak to tie
time and time again nntil we
thoroughly "know your voices; and
again thanking yoa for many favors
since coming among yoa
I am sincerely
1L H. Brookes.

I'rosecntor's office is in favor of the

The various railroad entering and
doing business in Washington, it
announced have decided not to
ssne any more passes to spellbinders
or campaign managers. This is t
step in the right direction vnd i
carried a little futher and ordr ths
no pass be issued to any legislator
state official, jndge or any man in an
office of public emolument or trusts
mere wouia ue a oetter reeling in
faror of railroads. The Plaindealer
wonld make it an offense against the
law of the state for any state offiicial
legislature, senator or judge of
w - -.
court or record to solicit accept or
ride on a pass over any railroad in
Oregon. If all the dead Leads or
dead beats riding over the railroads
paid fare, then the railroads could
pay tneir ju t proportion of taxation
and have money to spare, and the
tax payers burdens wonld be made
lighter. Every man traveling on a
railroad should pay in some way cr
other a just and equitable fare.
The Plaixdealeb, as announced
elsewhere will pnt in new presses,
type and material and will equip the
ofliee to such an extent that it will
be a credit to a city of 10,000 people.
This is one time that The Plain
dealer will lead and force others to
keep np in the procession. This is
done 'because we know that such
an office will be needed in the near
future. 'Rdh for Koseburg.

HOMESTEAD LANDS IN DOUGLAS
Room for 5,000 Sturdy Farmers and
Land to Locate Them On.
Durin
the next few
months there j
will be a tremendous rush to secure
government lands in Dos, Ikiuglas and
Klamath counties. In these counties
there is the choicest agricultural and
timber lauds to lx" found unoccupied
and free to locate niion in the State . of
Oregon ; and while Eastern, Northern
and the Central western parts of the
state have had their booms and millions
of acres of land has l)een located and
thousands of happy, peaceful, irosjr
ons homes established, the great, grr.nd
and glorious southwest has. Ikhii like the
wine at the marriage feast at Cana, of
which it was said that the 1st had lieen
kept to the last ; and this statement if
applied to the lands tributary to the
Southern Pacific railroad is literally
true. To the east and west of this en
terprising road can le found thousands
of ijuarter sections of land where any
man with a email amount of moans
could make a home for himself and fam
ily. It is true that it will require work
and lots of hard work in many places to
transform the land from its present
state into farming land, but w hen once
the land is cleared the crop returns are
enormous. There are many claims, yes
hundreds of them, where the land alter
nates Iietween heavy timbered land to
an almost treeless prairie, but this land
is ten to thirty 'miles away from the
railroad. On such land just as soon as a
mail has built a home to shelter his
family he can go to work and break up
the land and plant crops. This land is
as fertile and productive as the valley
hind of the Nile and will produce abund
antly many semi-tropical ami all the
crops known to grow in the temperate

Central Railroad Company and that
orders have leen scut out to the 'sur

of jieruiauent stakes between Myrtle
Point and ltoselmr. II. P. Jorritt,
the assistant puneral engineer of the
party, is in chaiye of operations. The
work is progressing at a satisfactory
pace, and it is stated that the pcltin;; of
stakes will proceed without interruption
through the mountains until i survey
ing party from the Salt Lake end of the
line is met.
A gang of surveyors left Marshlield,
Friday, for Myrtle Point to join those
already in the lield. They will w..rk on
the projected Great Central railroad
survey Iietween Roselmrg anil Myrtle
Point, lieginning at the latter place and

are many quarter sections not yet taken
up w hich can be homcsteaded and on
which there can lie cut fiom .1,000,000
to 0,000,000 feet of lumlicr. Within ten
yeais a claim that w ill rutn.O'm.OOO feet
of IuuiIkt will sell for f 15,000 This is
not dreaming it can lie demonstrated by
actual fact. A man, however, who has
a'little money to make a start with can
take up the land as a homestead and
live on it for five years when the gov
ernment will give him a patent to it and
while he is living on it he can convert u
few acres into a hop field, orchard or
general farm and thus make a living
while the land is gradually but surely
making him a fortune. If at the end of
14 months he thinks that the struggle is
too great he can then commute the
homestead holding and pay the govern
ment f 1.25 er acre 'for the land and a
patent will Ik; issued. Then there is
another way a man can obtain a South
west Oregon Isinanza and that is to take
up the laud as a timlier claim and pay
the government 2.50 kt uere and n
patent will lie granted at once.
