Necessity AVill Eventually

Build
(Umpqua Valley News.)
The word necessity, In all Us vari
ed applications, is one of the strong
est and most meaning words in all
the English language, and carries
with Itself a concentrated force and
enorgy exceedingly far reaching.
It was necessity that founded the
noman Empire, and necessity that
overthrew it. Necessity discovered
America, and the same force peopled
Its great valleys and plains. Neces
sity has organized, supported, and
annihilated political parties for ages.
Necessity has raised armies, and con
quered empires. Necessity has dot
ted tho world with cities and towns,
projected long and short lines of rail
ways to and through all counties,
and scattered gr.eat ships over all
, waters.
Necessity has drawn from Mother
EactVtho millions of raw material,
"-Jind turned millions of wheels to
manufacture tho samo. Necessity Is
a world conqueror, and knows neith
er restriction nor defeat. Necessity
will puadruple tho population and
wealth of the whole West, within tho
coming quarter of a century, and sho
will do it without effort or ostenta
tion. Necessity will construct and
maintain now developments andm
provemonts throughout Oregon ami
Douglas county, and necessity will
build an adequato transportation
lino between Roseburg and Coos Bay.
Necessity demands that such a road
bo now built, and It will bo accom
plished. It Is really a dlfllcult mat
tor to suggest a public Improvement
wherein necessity can bo more
strongly urged.
Necessity pushed to completion
tho old Oregon & California Railroad
Ijetweon San Francisco and Portland.
Tho samo necessity will compel tho
building of n connecting lino between
Kosoburs and Coos Bay. For many
years necessity has operated a stago
lino ovor said routo, but now neces
sity will havo to lay tho lorn rails.
Necessity, howover, soldom accom
plishes much until fully matured. It
Is Idlo to ask If tho road will bo built,
for all must concede It. Tho portl
nont question to ask is, "When will
tho road bo built?" Tho answer Is,
"As soon as necessity Is fully ma
tured." LOUIS BAZEE.

First We have the best pianos.
Second We sell them cheaper than our competitors.
Why? Because we buy them cheaper than our competitors, having the backing of the Eiler Piano House, one of the
largest concerns doing business on the Pacific Coast. We profit by their ability to buy in large quantities, which enables us
to get such low freight rates. This places us in a position to sell to the consumer as cheaply as the small dealer can buy from
the factory.
We handle over twenty different makes of the best pianos on the market. Out of every hundred cars of pianos
shipped to the Pacific Coast in the year ending February, 1, 1 907, seventy-two and one-eighth per cent was shipped to the
Eiler Piano House, leaving twenty-seven and five-eighths per cent for all the other dealers on the Pacific Coast. In other
words, Eiler's sold three-quarters of all the pianos that were sold on the Pacific Coast in that time. This is due entirely to the
methods we adopted in handling our business when this firm was established.
We carry on our piano business the same as every successful merchant, strictly on commercial basis. We buy
close, sell close ,handle nothing but the best and sell on the easiest possible terms. Our aim is to satisfy our customers. We
tend strictly to our own business. We never slander our competitor, nor use any mearf methods in getting our business.
Every piano that goes out of our store is strictly guaranteed as we represent it or money refunded. We are here to give you
value for your money and will be glad to assist you in every way possible in the selection of an instrument.

FARMERS LOSE PRODUCE
SHIPPED TO CITIES
It comes to Tho Times that there
Is a great amount of dissatisfaction
on tho part of farmers who send pro
duce to tho cities of the bay. It is
a common thing for shippers who
send produce to either Marshflcld or
North Bond to get returns for much
loss thnn they forward by tho various
ooats which ply tho wnters of tho
bay and sovoral Inlets. Nobody has
yet been able to learn whero tho
shortages occur, but there is no de
nying that thoy do occur. Tho mer
chants havo become alarmed lest
thoy bo accused of shorting the
farmers who ship to them, and sev
eral havo lot produce stand bn tho
wharves until farmers havo been
asked to witness tho disparage in
bulk of commodities between tho

Best
Do not be deceived, the "cheap" piano is the most
expensive you can buy. But it is also possible to
pay too much. If considering a piano purchase, in
vestigate carefully the qualities of our pianos.
Pianos that for years have been held in the highest
esteem among the best musicians and truly music
loving people for their HONEST, CONSCIENTIOUS,
skillful, thorough workmanship and their sweet and
powerful tone qualities.
Built to give a lifetime's service. Instruments that
actually improve in tone as the years pass; pianos
worth more at second hand than most are when new.
NOT LOW PRICED, BUT THE FULLEST, most sat
isfactory, SAFEST money's worth in the piano
market. We are not paying 20 per cent for the
privilege of representing any Portland or San Fran
cisco house, but are buying DIRECT from manufac
turer, and you can buy here as good a piano on as
sound and economic a standpoint as though you
were dealing direct with the heads of as large a
piano concern as there are in the United States.
