CALLS PUBLIC MEETING
Judge Pearce Sets Sept. IL, as Date
For Good Roads Rallies.

To The People of independence
County:
There now appears to be grow
ing sentiment in our county to-
wards good roads and the same is
increasing every day. The peo-
pie seem to appreciate the good
work which has and,is being done,
and large petitions are coming
to me from different parts of the
county asking that the county
convicts be sent to their township
to do permanent road work. The
work cannot progress very fast
with the limited resources at my
command. In several instances
interested parties have literally
aided the good work and good re-
suits have been derived therefrom.
In the state of Iowa, the people
built about 100 miles of good road
in one day by contributed labor;
and, as suggested by The Newark
journal, / am now going to ask
the people of Independence county
to aid in building a good road from
Batesville to Newark in the same
manner.
| now designate Monday Sept.
26th as the day for each and every
person who so desires to assemble
at designated places along said
road and to contribute whatever
amount of labor they may desire.
| will ask the overseers in each
township along the route to call
mass meetings, by posting hand
bills, in each of their respective
townships, to meet on Saturday,
September 18th at 2 p. m. at the
following places:
Ruddell township. Court house,
Batesville.
Gainsboro township, School
house, Moore6eld.
White River township, City
Hall, Sulphur Rock.
Big Bottom township, Ration
Hall, Newark.
Magness township, Woodmen
Hall, Magness.
For the purpose of perfecting
plans for said work; to solicit aid,
and to awaken general enthuiasm
in behalf of this good work. At
said meeting, | will ask the over
seer to act as temporary chairman
until regular chairman and Sec
rotary can be elected. Thereafter
| will ask that sufficient number
of assistant overseers be selected;
assembling places be designated
and arrangement in detail be made,
SO that the work can be pushed

until every consumer in the town has
been supplied. being estimated that
this will be realized before next fall.

The Roseburg commercial club
has taken a hint from the Grants
Pass commercial club and are this
year taking the necessary steps to
establish closer relations between
the business men of Roseburg and
the business men Of other towns in
Douglas county.
The Grants Pass commercial club
in June of last year made a pilgrim
age to nearly all parts OF Josephine
county; each excursion being parti-
cipated in by forty to fifty business
men Of the town. These trips were
in every way a great success and It
is the opinion of the members of the
club that such visits must be here
after a prominent feature Of club
work. The Roseburg Review of last
Tuesday prints a three column boom
article under the head, know Your

that Roseburg business men have be-
come aroused TO the Importance Of

broad scale but making truthful rep
