ROSEBURG PLANS TO SPEND MANY THOUSANDS IN IMPROVEMENTS Graft charges made against Walter Pliilllrs, hydrant Inspector of the city, will be Investigated at tbe regular meeting of the fire committee of the executive board Thursday afternoon. The official la asked to show to the committee that he was .not financially Interested In certain hydrants of local make and by reason of this Influence rejected the Ludlow hydrants. Mayor Lane said he was told that Phillips Jot 60 cents for each hydrant he re set r J. Mr. Phillips Indignantly denied that there was any truth In the storv and aeciared mat tne charges were absurd. r ire Chief cararbell also ridicules the idea and. Mayor lane ooesn t appear to take the charges against the Inspector seriously. Exchange of Sweet Meats. Walter O. Haines of the Ludlow Valve 6c Manufacturing company, appeared in the committee-room and he and Mr. Phillips Indulged in a wordy discus sion in which the voioes of both were raised and excited at times. Haines said he did not wish to prefer any charges again Phillips but that he had heard from three distinct sources that the hydrant Inspector was being paid to reject the hydrants furnished by Dr. E. V. Hoovsr. mayor of Roeeburg. was In Portland yesterday, aooompan led by bis wife, having come to town for a short. stay following a visit to the state fair at Salem last week. He Is serving his third term as mayor, each tlma defeating a nroralnant Republican mhn had been nicked to beat him. Dr. Hoover says that no surprise will be occasioned If Douglas county la car ried bv Bryan in November His work as a .'nhvsloian takes him anions: all classes of -people, and he says he finds much Bryan sentiments The Democratic candidate meets with espeoisl favor among the men who work with their hands, ani there Is a strong Bryan wave running in the farming districts. -Roseburg Is In a flourishing condition. Mayor Hoover snys. A contract has been let for 164.000 to be spent on street paving, with which one mile of street work will be completed. Because of soma technical obstructions which re- oulre time for straightening out the work cannot commenoe until next I spring,' but all will be In readiness at that time. . - . Dr. Hoover says that k drinking foun tain to cost 1600 will soon be installed. This will be a present from the Ladles' Mental Culture club and the W. C. T. U. and will be-prominently located.

About 100 new residences have been hullt in Rosebunr durlnr the last year. and several substantia) business blocks are under way. Good prices have been realised from the fruit crop and the people of the county generally are In prosperous conamon. Dr. Hoover is serving his seventh year as mayor, having been elected the first time over A. M. Crawford, . tne nresent attorne v-eneral of the state. That. was In 1001, when the term of the mayor was four years, la io ne was re-elected over George Kimball and last year was aguln elected over Dr. George K. uouck. .....-- ACTOR SUFFERS r PARALYTIC STROKE ' (Ualtrd trmm Luai Wtra.t . geattle. H a.li.. Brpi. , 1 1. John F. Danny of lluttet Mont , a vaudeville actor, suffered a stroke of paralysis yaateroay armmoon in his dressing room at Psntages' theatre and was re moved to the hospital. Iteuny, who was on he bill ss a monolosiat, was In bis dressing-room making up for his act, when Tie dropped suddenly to the floor. an hour. He was unconscious naif Haines' company. Haines merely want ed an Investigation made, he said, and would be glad If Pihllipa' Innocenoe wsre proaan. The startling Insinuations of Haines were but a side Issue of the real pur pose of the meeting which was brought about through a resolution made by Thomas GlVireene at tbe last executive board session. Mayor Takes Kes-ponslblltty. The purpose of the special meeting was to find out who was responsible for. the delay In accepting or reject ing the 86 hydrants furnished by the Ludlow company to the city, which lay on the street from May 1 to August 13. Greene said It hurt his feelings to find that these hydrants were lying there idle when he had .personally 'as sured anxious cltlsens last summer that there were none available. In Asking for the Investigation Mr. Greene declared that whoever should be found responsible for the delay should be "fired." Mayor Lane assumed responsibility for the hydrants not having been ac cepted sooner and told the committee that In the future he would be re sponsible for delays. ' The mayor remarked that ha per haps should be Impeached but that prior to the Investigation he did not know it was his duty to see to the accept ance or rejection of the hydrants. I The mere fset that m man Is sent by his doctor to some particular batha or springs where be seas other invalids confident of a cure makes him think that he. too, can get well," said Dr. It.
