The writer had the pleasure Sun
day morning of looking over the
plans, drawn by Mr. Dobbins for the
remodeling of the Oregon Hotel. He
has devised a thoroughly practical
plan that will make' the structure one
ot the most complete and Beautiful
rombiantion tourist and commercial
hotels on the Pacific coast at a nomi
nal cost. Every citizen of Ashland
should get behind Mr. Dobbins' plans
in substantial support. Already Mr.
Dobbins is proving a great asset to
the town. He is a man who does
things. He knows the hotel game
from start to finish and should have
the practical support of the commun
ity. Two-tone hats In other words,
two colors in one and some of the
combinations, are very pretty. They
are Conquerors, at $3., Mitchell &

Owing to a big call for state aid
for road-building from all the coun
ties of the state, the state highway
commission was unable to co-operate
with Jackson county, and the United
States government is making a sur
vey from the park to Medford, upon
which to base an appropriation to be
asked of congress for the construc
tion of a national highway. Jackson
county receives $45,000, the biggest
slice awarded to a single county for
road-building as the result of a bill
which was passed at the recent legis
lature promising state aid to Jackson
county because of the $500,000 spent
by the county in building a road, the
Pacific highway through the couuty,
which is really a state road.
