ADDISON BENNETT TALKS HERE. Talented Editor Speaks for State- aided Railway Construction. S c a lp Bounty. B a n croft Ite m s The scalp bounty law passed by the last legislature is already in effect. The bill provides a bounty of $1,50 for each coyote; $2.50 for grey, black or timber wolf; $2 for wildcat or lyn x; $10 for panther or cougar. In addition to tha above Coos county pays $10 for a coyote or panther and $3 for a wildcat, This makes a panther scalp worth $20 at present, but it is probably that the bounty will be reduced in Coos county at the next meeting of the commiisionsr's court, owing to the state bounty being in effect. — In order to obtain the state bounty it is necessary for the claimant, within six months of tha date of the killing, to present to the county clerk the entire skin of the animal, including the paws, the tail and the entire head, and he must also make an affidavit setting forth numerous particulars. The bill provides that it shall be the duty of the county clerk to sever scalp from the rest of the skin, and this remainder of the skin is returned to the claimant.— Coos Bay News.

He told how Washington had caught up with and far passed Oregon in popula tion and wealth all because o f her railroads, and they were built with out any thought of a guarantee from the people, either. Mr. Bennett’s concluding re marks were a strong talk for good wagon roads, and he urged the con viction upon his hearers that every dollar expended by the taxpayers to sorure a good road to Roseburg would bring four dollars benefits in return. Good roads are an essen tial part of any prosperous country ■— » most essential component part!
