ROSEBURG'S BUSINESS CONTINUES TO GROW The District Fair While in the city subscribing to some stock oi the I' npqoa Coal Co., Charles Mahoney, one of the Southern Pacific caipenler foremen, informed the l'lain dealer that he had a force of men Dbsilj engaged iu replacing the old wooden bridge over Cow Creek, at West Fork, with a substantial steel struct ire.

They went "loaded for bar," but they came home well, one had only to catch a glim pee of their countenances to guess the result uf their expedition. Perhaps no better indication of the marked growth of Roseburg can be found than that which is shown by the increase of business in the local office of the Welis-Fargo Express Company When Miss Kate Hoick took charge of the work here, some seven years ago, there was not nearly the amount of bus ness transacted as that which is done now. "Yes," remarked Miss Buick, to the Plaindealer representative, "our busi ness is constantly on the increase. It is fully double what it was when 1 came in here to have charge of things When the southern Pacific people were remod eling the depot, last year, they asked w hat additional room the local branch of the Express company would be likely to need, and, looking ahead, and antici paling the substantial growth of Rose burg I suggested that they give us a ware room thirty by twenty-two feet, and they acted upon the suggestion. This gives us plenty of space for warj-room, at the depot, really much more than t tie average place of thissize. Our office is also large and commodious, and we can handle the constantly increasing business with ease. Now we are to have a much desired addition to our equip ment, anil one which will be appretUted by the patrons of the company, 1 am sure. It is a nice delivery wagon. I do not know just how soon it will be in tailed, but it will come in the course of a very short time." Miss Buick, and her able assistants who have been serving the people so faithfully and well, will be rejoiced to have this necessary equipment.' for thus far they have only been able to deliver goods in the business portion of the city, causing people to call for their packages The large increase ia the volume o busioees, and the up to date outfi which is being installed, speak volumes for Ross-burg, showing that this city is rapidly coming into the ranks of the busy places in Southern Oiegon, and that it is surely assuming the ways of a city . Incidentally, it might be mentioned that Miss Buick has been giving such irood satisfaction in the service of this big corporation that she is frejuntly called upon to assist in straightening out matters in other office along the line in this part of tbe country.

August Miller, the well known I rewer wlio has been in charge of the brewing department f the Koi-elmrg brewery for the past few years, accompanied by hie wife, left laM week for Spokane, where they will reside. Mr. Miller having ac cepted a pot-ition as brewer with the Ilieher Brewing Co. of that city. In giving reasons for leaving Koceburg, Mr. Miller stated that owing to the present company giving the option for the sale of their plant he was unable to get in communication with the parlies who are expected to make the purchase and he was compelled to make the change as he did not know whether the new com pany would require his services or not. Mr. Stauffer, manager of the Koseburg Brewing and Ice Co., states that Messrt Blakely and Sheridan, who held the op tion on the plant, have made arrange ments to have their time extended from September 1st to 20th.

As usual, the ladies of the congrega tion are taking the lead in the matter, and, in fact, they have been working and planning for the much-desire 1 new chnrch home for some lime past. To this end they have succeeded in laying up quite a neat sum, as a nest egg for this commendable undertaking, and this, together with the spirit of improve ment which seems to be abroad in the commanity, has given quite an impetus to the movement which looks forward to the erection of Ihe new temple of wor ship. Just where the new edifice will be lo cated has not yet been positively deter mined, some of the members desiring the present place, bat others wanting it built farther away from the business part of the city.

For If the people of this immediate vicinity knew what an excellent thing they have within their grasp in the I'mpqna Coal Company's offerings they would not let outsiders come in and get what stock there is yet to be had. A former resi dent of Roseburg, Rev. George H. Ben nett, aeea what an excellent opportunity there is to make a good investment, and, in addition to the funds which he had already placed in that promising property he sent some more money, the past week, to be similarly invested. Al though he is now located in an eastern state, yet be realizes that the company is in good hands and .that there is every reason to expect great things. Rev Bennett is now pastor of the Methodist church at Mendota, Illinois, where lie is having great success in his work. He left Roseburg last spring for his eastern apiwintment and hie many friends in this city will certainly be pleased to hear of the success which is crowning his efforts.
