I f caught alive, which is improbable, they will surely swing. Senator Hanna has found it necessary to sit down on President Roosevelt again. The President was about to see that the civil ser vice law was to be enforced in Ohio, when Mr. Hanna stepped in and told the President to go a little slow, and so Mr. Roosevelt has decided to let the matter drop. The Eugene Register has begun to have fits already for fear Gov.

Drain people are beginning to feel that Roseburg rules in Douglas county with an iron hand and they are chaffing under the yoke. The people o f Cottage Grove have asked time and again o f Eu gene to give this end of the county a representative in the commission ers court for the last twenty year«, hut to every appeal a deaf car is turned by the powers that be in county seat. Such recognition will not be given and the people need no longer expect it, Our peo ple were taxed to build Eugene a fine $12,000 city jail, then came a $100,000 court house ; the people responded and now have the pleas ure o f seeing those fine edifices lux uriously fitted up for Eugene’s pets to bask in the sunshine o f fat sal aries and the smiles o f genial clerkE galore.
