July 25. ' ' '
risanolal End Arranged.
President Averill and Secretary
Evans stated that this movement, was
no mushroom affair, although not here
tofore made known to the public. The
matter has been handled quietly, and
tha financial end of the proposition ar
ranged t before . any public : announce
ment was made, v No information as to
who is supply the fund. was given out,
but it Is reputed to be San Francisco
and New .York capital. Mr. Evans is a
well-known resident of ' Marshfleld and
is president of the port of , Coos Bay.
XIr. Averill is recently from New York.
Confer With Contractor.,
Mr, -Evans has had many, years of
practical railroad experience, ' He says
that this road will be of ft similar typ'e
as the Oregon electric line now In oper
ation between Portland and Salem, with
standard 70-pound steel rails and other
equally substantial equipment Mr.
Evans goes from here to Portland to
confer with W. S. Barstow & Co., con
atructors of the Oregon Electric rail
road, and expecta to employ them on
the construction of this line. He says
t ha construction will begin both from
tha Roseburg and Marshfleld ends of
tha line Just as soon as the necessary
details can ba arranged.
It Is stated that terminal arrange
ments have already been made on Coos
Bay and that It Is expected to have
he line from Roseburg to Myrtle Point
In operation within twelve months from
this data and to Coos Bay within 20
months. The company also plans a line
to Bandon. ,-.
Dealers Say Poor Men Groan
but They - Pungle Cash
System Advocated.
"YOU'RE TOO SLOW"
i WIFE TELLS HUSBAND
Chicago, July SO. The secret Is out
That worried look that the coal dealer
wears habitually. Is not due to the fear
of a mild winter or to the failure of the
poor to pay, but to the wealthy citizen
who sends in a big order for fuel and
falls to send In a check.
Thls was revealed at the second day's
session of . the Illinois and Wisconsin
retail . eoal dealers' convention at' the
Congress hotel. Incidentally the coal
men agreed that what their business
needs above all Is a "strictly cash"
basis. . ' ,-. " -.
"The cash basis system Is necessary
In the sale of retail coal." said C. D.
Milleaon or East St Louis, "and It Isn't
the poor man that beats ua either, t
"The rich roan that rides about In an
automoblU.and who owns a fine' man
Ion In an arlstocratlo district Is the
man who Is the 'beat,' He orders a lot
of coal and promises to pay later.
"When you seek your money, the rich
man promises to send a check, but you
wait, and wait. I know of many coal
men who are waiting still for checks
for coal .delivered last year. Take the!
poor man; he frets 'and worries, but
keeps on paying." . , ,
C. R. Adair of Chicago Heights said
that coal " dealers of that - town, were
considering , selling on a strictly cash
basis. '
Afraid of Conspiracy' Charges.
"Reluctance to combine Is due to fear
AND SHE GOES AWAY
Tour manner of living Is too
slow for me. As for myself, I
would rather have a gay time."
' - This U what Will D. McCurry,
who filed action for divorce
4t against Jessie McCurry, In clr-
cult court yesterday, swears his
wife told him a number of times
before July 13, 1910, when he
went home to find the house de-
' serted, and a little note of fare-
well from his wife pinned In a.
conspicuous place.-. ..
- But McCurry has other grlev-
ances he cites against the woman
4f who married hlra June I, 1908 in
Pueblo, Colo. He says her treat-
ment' of him was cruel and In- '
human,' and just about put the
, "'kibosh" 'on his mentality. At
any rate, he suffered great an-
guish because she Insisted upon
cursing and upbraiding him. "
- She waa jealous, he says, and
abused him at every turn. Among
f other things, she refused to care
for their home and failed to get
his meals, or perhaps didn't try
at all. Then, he says, she began
consorting with women of ques-
, tionable character and reputation,
. and when he refused to meet and
associate with the men these
women Introduced to his wife, ?
she sneered at him. On those
occasions she; informed him he ;
was too slow, and that for her.
; self, she preferred a little of the
life along the "white way." ,
So, he recites, he went home
two weeks ago and found the
house deserted. Perhaps he did
not think this strange, but when
he found a note of , farewell
-, penned by her, all doubts van-
Ished. So had she. She said she
, was going away and have aome
, fun. She thought the manner In
which he lived waa altogether too
alow for her. He believes she
went to Los Angeles, Cal., but
. In the complaint filed yesterday
la, not sure Just exactly where

of Kankakee, i 'There Is a yonng attor

aerlous matter, and that would be a
hindrance to the cash system. The peo
ple would say we were trying to control

H. A, Robinson of tVorla, president of

Spec!il DUpitch to The JoarasLl '
;. Lakeview, Or., Vuly 80. The reports
of the '"Assembly" held by a few so
called Republicans at Portland last
week ; caused thdse who observed the
methods used to elect delegates -from
this county to wonder , whether ' the
whole "assembly" delegation waa select
ed In the same manner from other por
tions of the state. v
F. W. Light chairman of the Repub
lican county committee, iasued a call
for the faithful o gather at their re
spective ' precincts and vote for- dele
gates In two precincts In Lakeview
that have a registered list, of Republi
can -voters ' numbering about 100 each
there v were three and four votera re
spectively in attendance. All other pre
cincts In the county had no representa
tion . whatever, but somehow the, dele
gates were nominated and went' to Port
land and 'voted for the machine candi
dates. '
If this Is representative government
the thinking people of Lake are going
to hand aome one a large package and
If the other counties of the state do as
well, then there will be a turning over
of some one to see how the shots went
home.

Thousands of people now living in furnished rooms and furnished apartments are paying from $5 to $15, per month more than the same space would cost them unfur
nished.' They pay ior the furniture every two years and still, don't own it. Now, if these'same people owned the furniture tHey would be reaping an ANNUAL DIV
IDEND OF 50 PER CENT. V How many investments have you paying 50 per cent dividends each year? In addition, if you own the furniture! if it is of your own' 1
"selection you will draw big dividends of pleasure, comfort and satisfaction. Few Get-Rich-Quick schemes even promise more for your money than a furnished home
actually pays you.' Can you afford to defer the matter longer? At our NO-RENT prices it won't cost you any fortune, and we give reasonable terms.'
