THE LICENSE QUESTION. En. 1'LAifDKALsk t The Ret lew of April 22d says Marshal Cannon was tak n Tuesday with a spasm ol autiyity, and placed under arrest one 1LJV. Mil ler, lor alleged violatiou of the city ordi nance. Manhal Cannon acted nr. dor Instructions ol tha city council, who on the 8th, Instant, Instructed him to col lect all delinquent licenses aud to em ploy the Bftaletanci of Brown A Tuslin, if necessary. Mr. Miller poailively re fused to pay his license, and the marshal proceeded as Instructed by the council. The Review atalea that nr. Miller pays a license as broker. This is not the case. The firm of Miller A Hamilton pay, under tho firm nains, aa brokers. If. W. Miller conducts an insurance agency separate and distinct from the firm, and signs his policies II. W. Miller, Individually. The ordinance is plain and distinct lo regard to the occupations. Brokers, including pawn brokers, pay five dollars, and insurance sgenls ten dollars per year. Mr. Miller might as well run a liyery stable, printing office, hardwrre store, or any othei business enumerated and provided for in the li cence ordinancoo the same flimsey ex cuse that he Is interested in one license that haa been paid. The insurance companies reimborse their agents for the license paid to the city, and it doea not cost the agent a cant. The Review hs garbled and falsified the record as It appears in their recent isaus. They stale that Harmons, I'itch ford, Thompson and Stephens hare paid $100 each this year, while they have paid (LiM) each, and many other omiss ions and eroneous statements. They tell their readers there is no record that Brown ATuatin have ever paid a license, which is absolutely false and the Re view knowa it. There ia not an attorney living in the city that haa not paid his license this year witti the exception of Charley Hamilton, who claims ho is uot practicing. The Review would lead oui to lielieve that there ia a discrimination in license made, w hich i not the case and tho Re view knowingly aud purposely pervert the truth. It ttatoi that livery stables are charged different rate, ooe barber hop payiog 12.60 and another f5 for tbe same thing. Tbe Review is too dishonest to state the facte, tbat Mr. Thompson's barber license is for - only three months while the others received a six month's license. Carlon Bros, pay for a six month's livery license, Mr. Marks for three months and J. T. Fisher for five. Licence is charged from tbe timo one be gins business to the end of the term pro rata. The liceuse ordinance was re written by Attorney Sehlbrede last year so as to include some trades and callings tbat were omitted in the former ordi nance. The clause in refereuce to dru j stores was not changed in a single word, letter or syllable. The entiic ordinance, with the exception of the clauso for btruct fa' kire, eelling by samples 'and plumbing, is the same that has trten in force for years. The Review says there are offices tbat combine insurance, real estate and other agencies and pay but a single li cense. Likely the Review people do, it is about their si.e. If the city had a liceuse on lying, the Review would pay off the city debt in aix months. Mr. Miller is the onlv insurance agent in the city that has refused to pay his license, yet the Review howls about him being persecuted when he is asked to pay his license aa others do. But then he be longs to the Review push aud must be exempt from all financial as well as moral responsibility. S. At Hymen's Altar. Hamilton-Kidder. At the resideuce of the bride's parents in this city, April 28, 1897, by Rev. Dilwortb, Dr. Walter S. Hamilton and MiasQueenie B. Kidder. This pleasant affair was undoubtedly the prettiost wedding of the season. Tho bride was very beautiful iu a costume of brocaded Ivory silk, made en train, with which was worn a white veil caught up by rosebuds. She carried a bouquet of bridal wreath and white lilacs. The groom appeared at his best, bear ing most proudly this the crowning and dearest of his mauy recent successes. Tbe floral decorations iu all tbe rooms wore very dainty and effective, an arch of apple blossoms, flanked with green, can opying the bridal couple. Tbe ceremony was followed by some exiiuiaito piano-forte renderings by Mrs. Ragsdale, and a sumptuous lunch was served. Ths guests consisted only of the imme diate relatives aud a few very near friends. Tbe young couple were tho re clpients of hearty congratulations and numerous approprate presents. A merry party supplied with rice aud old shoes accompanied Dr. and Mrs. Hamilton to the midnight overland and appropriately the honeymoon. Tho weddiug journey was planned to begiu at Portland, with an ocoau voyago to San Fraucisco aud a sojourn of aevoral weeks in the "suusot laud," after which Dr, uud Mrs. Hamilton will make a per manent homo in this city, thus preserv ing luviolate the mauy tics cf friendship and association that have culminated iu this happy event.

Must newspapers have filler I he moral stamina to adhere to the truth for truth's sake, or .they are constrained to be truthful out of policy, but, sad to re late, some newiapers are nut influenced by either a love of Iruth for truth' sake, nor regard for it out of policy, but are so prone to indulge In falsifying that they do not regard the truth aa binding on Ibeir conscience. Of this latter class the Koseburg Review is a conspicuous sam pie. In its issue of April 22d, itaays; "The city government since it passed uuder control of Council 22, A. I'. A., is in a deplorable condition indeed. Our people are taxed all the charter will per mlt, besides the Imposition of a license tat upon all business men who have not a pull with tbe city officials. In retora for thia the get nothing, having to keep op tbe streets end sidewalks without any assistance from the city treasury." In reply, allow . me to say, the city under good democratic anti A. P. A. control taxed the city to the limit, and saddled a t25,000debt upon the city and fixed licenses as bigb a at present, and aa for building sidewalks, the city never bss appropriated a dollar for tbat pu'pose. Tbe property owners have always had to build the sidewalks in front of their properties. Tbe Review does not say tuat the city nnder anti A. P. A. control built sidewalks, bat that is the inference. It is also inferred from tbe Review tbnt licenses are not collected from those who have a "pull with tbe officials." This is a false and slanderous charge, as licensee have been- more cioseiy collected the last year than at any former time. Tbe Review aays, too : "Tbe town ia a hobo paradise, aod at night is given over to II kinds of disturbances." This state ment Is a barefaced falsehood. There has not been within tbe laat year balf as much disturbance from hoboes aa pre vioualy under aoti A. P. A. control. Ayain it aays: "Flub, congested sew ers, dirty streets and a general rundown air over all com plot es tbe story of a year and a balf of secret political rule." A baser falsehood thau tbe above by tbe Review was never printed. The writer of this has lived in tbe city several years, and knows whereof he speaks when he state tbat the city is not more filthy now than al any otber time in past years. He does know, though, that some of the nint filthy places in the city are those owned by anti A. P. A's. If tbe above statements of the Review were true, which tbey are not, it is not good policy to publish aucb things. It is akin to the old adage, "It ia a filthy bird that will befoul its own nest." Strangers reading such falso charges ot bad government will light shy ol coming here to settle or engage in business and help build up our city. But the purpose of the Review is perceptible. It makes the good name ol tbe city subservient to politic. To make a political point the Review will give the city a black eye and glory iu tbe ahame it casts upon it and revel in tbe faneied prospect of po litical gaiu through its lies. A CiTlZtA'. Child Drowned. On Monday afternoon, David, the lit tle four-year-old son of David Griffithj uf West Roeeburg, fell into tbe Umpqua river and was drowned. No one knows exactly h'ow it came about, but it ap pears that he was playing near the river in company with tbe son of G. W. Rapp, a little fellow about two and a half years of age. Observing the latter coming back from the river alone some one asked him where the other boy was, and waa told tbat be was in the river, tbat he was trying to catch some ducks and tbat he went into the water and laid down. Tbe alarm was given and friends assembled and began to search for the body. It was soon found, lodged against so mo bushos, aud brought to shore by C. W. Tarrott. Every effort was made to resuscitate tbe child, but it had been in tbe water too long balf an hour or more, perhaps, and life was extinct. The funeral took place Tuesday after noon, interment at tbe Odd Fellows' cemetery. Tbe almost heart broken parents ot this beautiful little boy have the sympathy of the entire community. What Caused the Accident. With tbe raising from the bottom of the slough last evooing, of tbe wrecked cur No. 52, it was indisputably shown that the derailment of tbe car, which led to the fearful disaster costing four people their lives, waa caused by the breaking of Ibe axle of tbe left front wheel ou the forward truck of the car. With thia fractured axle it was impossi ble to apply tbe brakes with any force, and tho stretch of down grade still to be ruu before the bridge was reached, al lowed the car to gaiu great impetus.

There will be a box supper at tbe Cala pooia school house ou Saturday night, May 7tb. Everybody is cordially invited to come. Tbe proceeds are to go to tbe minister. Kosxbid. Olalla. The Olalla mines have shut down in- definitely. J. R. Coon, who came from California a short time ago, is in very poor health, but it ia hoped tbe delightful climate of the Umpqua valley will be a benefit to him.

We are informed tbey are making arrangements to move back to Olalla soon to make it their future home, as do every one who baa ever lived here aud moved away. How can a person call himself a law- abiding citiieu when he willfully arid with impunity violates the laws of his country aa does the man who turns bis hogs out on tbe couimou? Tbey root op tho range to the detriment ot stock which are free commoners besides being a nuisance to all tboee who do not keep bogs. Gardening is uearlv finished, and in a few days all the rockers ou the Olalla will be at work as the water is low enough to work the gravel bars along tbe t remus. From present indications theie will be more of that kind of mining done during the coming summer thau for mauy years. Tbere ia quite a bit ol prospecting being doue already. Allkn.

Editou Plaivdkaleb: "Roseburg's city government ie in a deplorable con dition." ia tbe Review's wail and it whines for a return to the corrupt rule tbat placed tbe city under au indebted ness of $14,000, whence they drew their share of the boodle and waxed rich and arogant at the expense of tbe unsnxpect iog tax payers. Yes, there has been a decided change in the past year and a half in the city government. All have been asked to pay tbeir ju-t and equal proportion of license and taxation, aod even tbe Review and Ha benobmtu have been compelled to pay the same as otber people. Of course tbe city should employ special police to guard tour-eyed Charley for fear a cane might fall on bis brainless cranium, but then tbe city expanses are over four thousand dollars less tbe past year which will rec ompense tbe tax payers for the tear and mental anxiety poor Charley suffers.
