in the Chicago convention. Arthur's
friends claim a large majority of the

Senator Dolph on the I3'h present
ed to the TJ. S. Senate a petition of
the Good Templars of Oregon, officially
signed by 5000 nismbor, praying for
a commission of inquiry concerning the
wholesale liquor traffic.
M. C. George's bill to allow the
Oregon PaciCc Railway Co. to con
struct one or more bridges over the
Willamette river in Oregon was on the
12th reported back favorably to the
House of .Representatives.
Postal notes are becoming quite
popular with parties desiring to trans
mit small sums. As they only cost
three cents for a note of any denomi
nation under five dollars, thsy will
afford subscribers an excellent oppor
tunity to pay up their arrears.
Proclamation has been made by the
Governor, attested by the Secretary of
Stale, giving notice that on Monday
the 2d day of June, 1884 will be sub
mitted to the legal voters of this, the
joint resolution of both houses of the
legislative -assembly, declaring that the
elective franchise in this State shall
not hereafter be prohibited to any
citizen o'n accaunt of sex.
The Roseburg "Plaindealer" men
tions the namo of Hon. Binger Her
mann in connection with tho candidacy
for congress. This gentlemen is a man
of excellent abilities, is a good speaker,
honest and temperate, and could have
a solid delegation to the convention
from southern Oregon in case he con
sents to have his namo proposed bo
fore the convention. He would make
an excellent congressman.
OurRepublican friend, ex-Governor
Woods, formerly of Oregon, has great
ly distinguished himself in defense of
Marks, who killed the paramour of his
wife in San Fiancisco. The "Chron
icle's" report says: "At the close of
ex-Governor Woods' argument there
was great excitement in the court
room and it was with difficulty that
quietness was restored. The case was
then given to the jury, and in a short
.while they returned a verdict of not
guilty. Marks was then released from
custody." Governor Woods is un
questionably the most brilliant orator
now living in tho Pacific states; and,
according to the views of the Boston
"Journal," has not a superior in the
whole Union.
The Chronicle prints an article- to
day referring to recent failures in
Oregon, and discussing the business
situation there. In conclusion it says:
"Tho indebtedness of the Oregon busi
ness community u largely in San
Francisco. During the next six
months jobbers of his city will have
half of the interior merchants of Ore
gon in their power, and it should be
borne in mind that the security of the
country is first-class; and'. that the pres
ent distress is incidental merely, and
not a settled or lasting condition. By
an easy and generous course our mer
chants may retain a great business
which harshness, even to a degree con
sistent with business justice, may di
rect to another field. The new North
ern railroad affords opportunities for
other connections, and this should not
be forgotten."
.
The general superintendent of the
Western Union Telegraph Company
for the Pacific coast has received an
announcement that an important re
duction in through and local rates will
KO into effect on March 1st. After
that date the maximum? tariff between
all points in the United States, now
$1 50, will be 51. This will be day
and night rate, the latter being abol
ished, because it is found that while
tho day business is very light night
business is exceedingly heavy. To
equalize the two the reduction has
been determined upon. The reduction
in local rates, however, concerns the
night as well as the day rate. The cut
in this instance is equal to about 33
per cent, of the new prevailing rates.
The minimum rate will continue to be
25 rents, as heretofore, but the 30 and
40 cent rates are to be reduced to 25
cents; the 75 cent rate to 60 cents,
while the 50 cent rate will contiauo
unchanged. Nigut rates are propor
tionately reduced. It will be seen
that these rates have been made to
conform to the new maximum rate of
$1, which governs eastern business,
but, unlike it, they are subject to re
duction for night messages. By this
reduction the rate from Jacksonville
to Portland or San Francisco for ten
words will be 60 cents, to Salcra 50
cents, Roseburg, 40 cents, Yreka 25
ei)ts, any point in the Eastern States
51.
Southern Oregon.
An event of great importance is tho
opening of the railroad into Southern
Oreeon. It is important both for that
section of the State and for the State
at large. Rogue river valley is one of
the fairest and most fruitful portions
of Oregon, Since its first settlement
it has been the home of a prosperous
and stable community, but owing to
i's isolation its progress has been slow.
Its genial climate, fruitful soil and
great resources have not attracted the
attention they deserve because there
has been no means of transportation,
and it has even leen a serious task to
travel into that section or out of it.
All thrre disadvantages the railroad has
now overcome or removed, and this
very important section of the State
will now be drawn in closer relations
with the other parts of it.
This is a fact that siguifios much.
Heretofore the portion of Oregon
which the extension of the 0. & U.
railroad now brings into communica
tion with us has been united with mora
bonds to tho people of California than
to ourselves. The commercial rela
tions of Southern Oregon have been
with California rather than with us.
Elections have been about the only in
cidents to remind tho people of that
section that they were connected with
Oregon instead of California.
Rogu river valley and the great
country that surrounds it have capacity
for yery high development. Every
element of natural wealth is there.
That beautiful valley is destined to be
come the. fruit garden of the entire
northwest. The climate is so much
milder than that of the Willamette,
and the rain fall is so much less, as to
make thai portion of the State much
more desirable for residence than this,
while it has equxl advantages over
eastern Oregon. A liberal policy on
the part of the railroad will develop
Southern Oregon astonishingly within
a very few years. "Oregonian."
Republican State Conven
tion. A Republican convention for the
State of Oregon is called to meet at
the city of Portland, Oregon, on Wed
nesday, the 30th day of April, 1884.
at 11 o'clock a. m., for the purpose of
nominating candidates for the follow
ing offices, to-wit: Representative in
Congress, judge? ot the Supreme Ccurt,
three presidential electors, and the dis
trict officers for the several judicial
districts, and to select six delegates to
attend the National Republican con
vention, and to .transact such other
business as may properly come before
the convention.
The convention will consist of 206
delegates, apportioned among the sev
eral counties, as follows:
Baker, 5; Lake, 2; Benton, 9; Lane,
10; Clackamas, 10; Linn, 12; Clatsop,
6; Marion, 18; Columbia, 4; Multno
mah, 35; Coos, 6; Polk, 8; Crook, 5;
TillamooK, 2; Curry, 2; Umatilla, 12;
Union, 6; Grant, 5; Wasco, 8; Jack
son, 6; Washington, 8; Josephine, 3;
Yamhill, 9; Klamath, 2; total 206.
The same being one delegate at large
from each county, and one delegate
for every 125 votes, and one for every
fraction over one-halt thereof, cast
for Hon. M. C. George, Congressman
at the last general election.
The committee recommended that
the primaries be held on Saturday, the
12th day of April, and the county
convention on Tuesday, the 22d day of
April, unless otherwise ordered by the
proper County Central committees.
The committee earnestly recommend
ed that the delegates elected to the
State convention attend in person, and
if not convenient for them to attend
personally, that thoy send their prox
ies by electors of the county they rep
resent. The Republican voters of the State
without regard to past political differ
ences, who are in favor of elevating
and dignifying American labor, giving
free popular education to the masses
of the people, effectually protecting all
human rights in every section of our
common country, and who desire to
promo'te friendly feeling and perma
nent harmony throughout the Statu by
maintaining a government pledged to
these objects and privileges, are cor
dially invited to unite in selecting
delegates to the Republican State con
vention. Sol. Hirscii,
Chairman.
Portland, Oregon, Feb. 21, 1884.
Judge Smith of Portland has ren
dered a decision in the State Circuit
Court, which will be of interest to re
tail merchants and the public generally
It was in the case of Corson fc Rogers,
who obtained judgment against H. H.
Crozier of East Pertland for $10, for a
pair of bhoes sold Crozier't sou, a
minor, and came up on appeal from
Justice Bybee's court. The plaintiffs
claimed that though thb purchase of
the shoes was not authorized, it is the
duty of the parent to furnish Jus child
with the necessaries of life, and the
shoes in question were one of the nec
essaries. Judge Smith decided that
the defendant was not liable and
granted a non suit. He held that in
order to make a parent liable for ne
cessaries of life furnished a child, there
must be some agency expressed, or im
plied between the parent and. the deal
er. In other words, a dealer cannot
sell goods to a minor for his own use
and then hold the parent, nnless be
has his parent's authorization.

A SURE CURE FOUND
AT LAST!
NO ONE NEED SUFFER
A sure Cure for Blind, Bleeding, Itching
and Ulcerated Piles has been discovered
by Dr. William, (an Indian Remedy,'
called Dr. William's Indian Ointment. A
single box has cured the worst chronic
cases of 35 or 30 years standing. No one
need suffer five minutes after applying this
wonderful soothing medicine. Lotions in
struments and electuaries do more harm
than good. William's Ointment absorbs
the tumors, allays tho intense itching,
(particularly at night after getting warm
in bed,) acts as a poultice, gives instant
relief, and is prepared only for Piles, itch
ing of the private parts, and for nothing
else.
Read what the Hon. J. M. Cofflnberry
of Cleveland t ys about Dr. William's In
dian Pile Ointment: I have used scores
of Pile Cuies, and it affords me pleasure
to say that I have never found anything
which pave such immediate and perma
nent relief as Dr. William's Indian Oint
ment. For sale by all druggists or mailed on
