A FUTURE SEASIDE REsoRT-We
believe it is generally conceded by tour
lists that of all places in Oregon, none
affords more magnificent landscape
scenery than that from Coos Bay to
Port Oxford. II is not all forest nor
vet an open plain, but combines the
prairie, the forest, the level plain, the
rolling hill, the smooth and hard beach,
the unceasing roll of old ocean, the
pretty white cottage and its green shut
ter, the flower garden, the cliff, the
rocky clusters in deep ocean, the rest
less sea gull, the sportive and leud-com-
planning sea lions as they roll, and
climb, and sport and plunge, all these
create charm one never tires to gaze
upon. On the beach one can travel
with inqui.ing look on the countless
shells, pebbles, agates and broken relics
Of other lands He travels thus along
SO absorbed by the curiosities he walks
on that he forgcts even time and dis
tance. The monotony, if it should be-
come such, is often relieved by tho
sight Of some ship gliding along ma
jestically on the high seas. For a
healthful OF pleasant trip commend

RosEBuRG. We know of no place
with more promising future than
Rosesarg. All assurances point 10 ac-
tive Improvements on the coast this
summer. Whether the result is TO be
the immediate construction Of railway
to this city we express no opinion; it is
enough to knew that earnest operations
on Coos Bay must at once produce
corresponding effect here Traffic and
travel will commence kstween the two
points. Attraction from abroad will
be invited to entire southern Oregon.
The unrivaled mill sites and water
power all around us must soon be put
to their natural manufacturing facili-
ties. Capital from the factory centres
OF the Atlantic States will soon dis
cover these advantages. The profta-
bleness of wool factory has long ago
been conceded. Our local capital can
not unite on any protest of this kind.
In Ashland, some years ago, few men
of enterprising spirit made venture
in this direction, and though deprived
of all railroad and water transportation,
it grew rapidly in prosperity and popu-
lation, and to-day is The most thriving
town of it's size on the coast. Not only
this, but 1t has advanced all the ada
cent country in proportion. Roseburg
is the centre Of the main wool growing
coantry of southern Oregon. It is the
wool depot, and for the most desirable
grades. With a commodious, modern
Luilt bridge spanning the Umpqua riv
er here, and the contemplated improve
ments among our own citizens, ~e feel
justified in predicting for Roseburg,
not only an encouraging, but perma
nent future.

A correspondent of the New York
Times reports that in Leavenworth,
Kansas, city of about $1,000 people,
there are to-day not less than l40 sa-
looms in which Intoxicating liquors are
openly sold, and these saloons are viz
tually licensed by the city at the rate of
SO month for each dealer. The fee
is imposed in the shape of monthly
fine for violation Of the law, dealers,
city authorities and courts uniting thus
to evadc the law, and public sentiment
sustaining this demoralizing policy.
Prohibition must have been put into the
State constitution to stay. 1tappears

Says the Sprague Herald: A gen
tieman came down from the mines one
day this week and tells straightfar-
yard story and one we are inclined to
believe, of the mines and the outlook
for the future. He says he went then e
last fall and is familiar with all the To-
cations made, and how they are paying.
He saws the "Wldow" claim is the only
one which has ever paid any thing; that
there will be more money taken into
the mines in the next three months
than will be taken from them in the
next FIVE months.
