AlvurtlNltK rntcK niiiilx known tiiion nillcatlun. Friday, Oct. 27, 1899. A newspaper of the populist per suasion, last week had the gracious ness to devote a quarter of a column to the steady growth of Cottage Grove in the matter of not only new buildings but business. For once this contemporary even became so intensely enterprising and patriotic as to advocate an im provement of the streets of Cottage Grove; to make them more at-1 tractive to the eyes of new comers; suggested to the city council that t "good side walks indicate thrift of property owners," etc. Now for1 the sake of- a little information, will this contemporary organ tell its readers why Cottage Grove has deeloped into a "thriving little city" the past season; how comes it that business in 1897 was better than in 1896; in 1898 was 22 per( cent better right here in Cottage , Grove than in 1897; in 1899 over ;. 50 per cent better than in 1898? The fact that business has im-j proved here and throughout the j count' in about this proportion is corroborated by business men in . general. Now as this paper ofj offish tendencies admits that busi- ' ness is better, without advancing an opinion on our own part, will it please tell its readers 'why" busi- j ness is better? Again in referring j to its remarks upon the necessity of good streets, etc., since this i ' same contemporary is bitterly op- j posed to the rock crusher services conducted by the county, will its editor please tell the reading public how he would go about making these necessary improvements pro-1 viding the people should at any , time be throughtless enough to to give him an opportunity to run things? A man that has so many , objections to offer upon a given practice, surely can offer something better. And while he is giving those of us who are crawling about in the gloom of ignorance, regard ing municipal, county and national ! affairs, since he has condescended to devote a portion of his valuable Editorial time in denunciation of President McKinley, will be kindly tell us how he would fix things if he had a chance? No doubt the administration is hankering for his advice on some of these important points, and surely he that counts him self able to criticise should be able to execute. The Columbia defeated the Shamrock three races in succession, the cup stays on this side of the big "drink" and Sir Thomas Lipton, the dead game sport, intimates that he will be on hand with another craft next year. Its foolishness on his part but then it might as well be Sir Thomas as anyone else. EXPLAIN. All intelligent republicans who honor the name of Lincoln must now repudiate McKinley and his party if they would maintain their own self-respect. Leader. The above calls for another query. All this is new to us and as it is a splendid time to get straightened out on these little things, we most respectfully ask the above men tioned paper "Why all intelligent republicans who honor the name of Lincoln must repudiate McKinley and Ins party?" Either answer this question or tell us the name of the paper you clipped it from. The citizens of this city should hold a mass meeting and effect a business mens club, put it on a ! substantial basis, open up a club room and prepare to give every man who chances to come this way a friendly welcome and furnish him with the information he may desire regarding Cottage Grove, the magnificent fanning district adjacent, the timber interests and the Bohemia mining district. The cost of maintaining an organization of this kind is, in comparison with the good results always obtained, of no moment, and the result is the permanent establishment of an in formation bureau which will send the merits of South Lane broadcast over the land. Cottage Grove has a start now that will, if her citizens will stand together, make her a city of several thousand inhabi tants. In order to do this petty prejudice must be laid aside and all work with one aim i e, to make Cottage Grove an active, pro gressive, industrial and commercial town. Let us show to those who have watched us struggling in the throes of disastrous circumstances, that we have the backbone to make Cottage Grove one of the leading country cities of Oregon. To do this all that is necessary is to get together, be fair minded and agree upon a plan of action and then get in and work with a vim. Up to the present time an ex hibit of Bohemia ore has never been made. A move was made this year chiefly through the efforts of Mr. Alf Walker, to place a cabinet on exhibition at the Portland ex position. However owing to the delay in procuring specimens, the display could not be arratiged in time to be of practical benefit, and so it was thought best to not make the display. Another year a display should be made at the Portland ex position, the state fair, and the Spokane exposition. It is one of best methods of advertisuieut for the district, and the preparations for a splendid display should be taken up early the coming year and energetically outlined so that when the time comes no delay will result and failure again experienced.
