SHOT AT RECKLESS SPEEDER
(Roseburg News-Review)
The tourist who took a shot at a passing automobile
a few miles north ol Roseburg Monday, after the speeder
had almost driven him to the ditch, probably took the
view that he was shooting in self-defense. It is a chronic
habit with some fellows to cut in ahead of other machine i
thereby endangering the lives of the occupants, and while
we do not advise cold lead as a remedy for these demons,

BUSINESS IMPROVING
J he maiket statisticians ot the big banks are turning
to an optimistic' view of the immediate business future.
The National ( ity bank in its review of economic condi
tions for August says:
“ A marked revival of business is not expected to
make an appearance in the midsummer season, but a
change of sentiment for the better has been observed in
the last halt of July. It has been due in large part to the
remarkable rise in the prices of the farm staples which
heretofore have been the source of most of the pessimism
abroad in the land. The west hesitated at first to believe
that anything as good could possibly be true but when
hogs went over the $10 mark the most skeptical were
obliged to admit that a change had come' across the face
of affairs. All reports agree that the outlook for business
has improved very much in the wheat and ht>g territory,
which includes all of the west. Admitting that the corn
crop will be short, with a fine crop of oats to help out on
stock feed, there will be enough com for fattening pur
poses to bring good returns on a full crop. The wheat
