Cottnfee Grove it) fast Hearing the
ptoporttons of n thriving little city
The growth of the town during the
past few years hns jgone beyond the
expectations of the most sanguine.
It is due to several causes. First
we have one of the best locations.
It is also a healthy locality. We
have all kinds of milling interests.
Bohemia Mining district is at our
very door. We have, a progressive
set of business men. We bav,e
splendid real estate, a goodly por
tion of which can be purchased on
a basis of real value, notwithstand
ing the fact that tfie present put
look is an incentive for" g.eatly in
creased prices. In" view of these
conditions we. must remember that
much depends upon us ns iudividu.il 1
citizens, also upon the city govern
ment. There are several things
that should be attended to, the
sooner the better. For instance,
the streets" should be cleaned,
the back yards and alleys should
have the attention of the city au
thorities and the authorities should
be backed up. by the individual
property owners. The council
should, if it is possible, take up the
matter of officially naming the
streets and numbering them. Some
of the names now clinging to the
several streets might be changed
with perfect propriety, but at any
rate, ' let us officially declare the
names of those alreJdy named and
give names to those that have not
been named. It will not be a very
heavy official act, financially, and
will he of great benefit to everyone

concerned. The street numbering
will be a trifle more expensive, but
it will be a great benefit to the
town. Let us get into the front
rank, of progress.
While uo republican has or will
have a word against Me. Reames,
the democratic candidate- for. con
gress from this district, so far as
Mr. Reames personally is con
cerned, it should be borne in mind
by all that t is' the duty 'of repub
licans to elect a republican to officet
thus sustaining the administration.
We cannot afford to elect a demo
crat. It ypuld be a direct, insult
to the administration. We have
another-rea'son-one of the best on
earth why. Mr. Hermann should
be returned to congress, and why
Mr, Reames should not "be sent
there at the present time. Mr.
Hermann, is in touch with the
affairs that mill come under his
official notice. He knows the ins
and outs,, has at extended ac
quaintances! Washington, and by
his past record we know that he is
amply able to represent this dis
trict, and in fact all Oregon. He
is not only able but he has always
been found a worker, always' at liis
post of'duty. Admitting that Mr.
Reames has the native ability, even
his frlends'must admit that he has
not "had the experience. At the
present time, in the lace of the
Lewis and Clark' exposition, and
many other issues of great moment
to Oregon and the Pacific coast we
cannot' aflord to take chances in
sending a new ' man to congress
when we have an old and! tried war
horse, in the very prime of bis
ability, ready to take up the con
gressional cudgel.
Present membership 341,000.
After an exceptionally fiue pro- j
gram Consul Commander F. H.
Rosenberg'iutrod'uced Mr. Rogers,
who gave one of the splendid fra-
ternal addresses for which he is
noted. He told of the enthusiastic
efforts of the "choppers" and
'chopperesses" all over thecountry
in the forthcoming celebration
Briefly he said that the eleven
camps of Lane county had started
out five week's ago to obtain 200
candidates, to; be initialed in one
class in Eugene on May 15th next
LA joint committee composed of
representatives of all the Lane
county camps was appointed to
take charge of the affair. The
success wnicn lias attended their
efforts has been simply phenome
nal. Mr. Rogers states that up to
last Friday the local camps had. re ,SlnnmfeIt riiiitosmjilicr
ceived 149 applications and that 1
they were getting forty a week. '
As the work' progressed the boys
became enthused .with the idea,
until now it is proposed to make it
a great puonc lumiee occasion.
The Nugget respectfully - calls
the property owners attention to
the small fire which recently oc
curred in West Cottage Grove, not
thatitwasan -important fire, but
that jtjs.a warning to property
owners and a forerunner of .what
may happen. We are riow nearing
the dry ' season. There, are many
buildings in this city that have
more or less moss on the roofs. If
a spatk drop3 upon a moss-covered
roof, fire is the result, and it just as
apt to be a disastrous fire as one of
no importance, hence this hint.
It would be a splendid idea to ex
amine the roofs of your buildings
and hasten to clear the shingles of
all foreign substance.
