Editor of Courier: Coming here from a country, every foot of which is 'covered with rural delivery, I cauuot understand why they do not have it hero. Surely, this part of the country is as much entitled to Undo Sam's favors as any other part of his domain. You cauuot know what the coming of the mail man means to tlio rciuoto farmer's family, besides it is an educator. Statistics show how many more papers are taken where there is free delivery. Uuclo Sam requires timo in tlio delivering over tlio route, usually about 25 miles which means hotter roads. Oregon may bo ahead on scenery, climate and fruit, but sho is away back in tho "Dark uges"iu country road building. California sets a good example. In taking a trip one does nut have to ask where tho California improved roads begin and tlio Oregon bad ones are left behind.

RECENT ENTERTAINMENTS The Past Week's H&ppenlngs In the "Show" Line "Sandy Bottom, " presented nt tho era house ou Thursday evening, proved a very pleasing play. It is full of interest, ami was well played throughout. Tho company is well bal anced, all the members sustaining their parts creditably. Tho best fea ture was the "Sandy Bottom" quar tet which was extremely popular Willi the audience. The "Dusky Americans" in "Belle of Georgia" at the oiicra house Mon day evening tlid not give an extremely higu class performance. It was an old fa Moied "nigger show," bereft of most of the entertaining features. The one bright spot iu tho iicrform lin n was the work of Carter Bros., acrobats ami contortionists. This was good, ami if all the rest hail been cut out the audience would have been bet. tt r satislied. The liipiid air demonstration given at the oi ra house Tueathiy evening by Professor Patty, was cum of the lust i nt erta in ing events that has . vt r been given In re. Apart from its an. using and startling features, it was of ki t n scii otitic: interest. A lurge crowd attended and every ex periment was watched with the most anient interest.
