A WORD TO OCR FRIENDS.
This issue of the IY-usds"-" ii tbs
fourth, uoiler Iba present management.
If the pper cocets'your approbation, t
aik tbat you belp ua with our influence.
If every reader of Ibis paper who deairei
to aee it prosper, would help ui jaet a lit
tle, tbe circulation could be doubled io
ait nion'-ba. Snow the paper to your
neighbor, and ask him to subscribe lor
it. Subscribe for an extra copy yourself
and have it sent to some relation or
friend. If it is not conTenient to send
in the money now, it can be paid when
convenient.
Tbe date for the republican county
convention in drawing near, and to far
there has been very little said in regard
to candidates for the various county
offices to be tilled at the coming June
election. We are of the opinion that a
better and more satisfactory ticket can
I nomiuated, when there has beeo a
full and free discussion of the merits of
proproeed candidates for a reasonable
time prior to the convention. When
this is done the delegates go to the con
vention with some idea as to whom
their constituents prefer to have nomin
ated, and of the fitness and availibility
of the persons whose names are placed
lief ore tbe convention. We Lave no
sympathy with the plan of jumping op
candidates for office on convention day,
and nominate them without any lime
or opportunity to become acquainted
with their ability or fitness for tbe posi
tion ti which they are nominated.
Nine timet out of ten tbe man who
prates tbe most about tbe office seeking
tbe man, has a three pronged lightning
rod of bis own ready for use and ia hop
ing to be struck by forked lightning him
self. If a man is too modest himself to
announce the fact that he is a .candidate
he ousut to have friends wbo wonld do
it for him.
Fisher, of tbe Review, pays the Plain
dealeb a big a compliment when be
refers to it as a middle-of-the-road
paper, and to it editor as a middle-ot-tbe-road
republican. A middle-of-the-road
republican, or democrat, or , popu
list ia one who bolda hia political prlnci
plea above the spoils of office, wbo be
lieve tbat hia party stands for tbe beat
interests of tbe people, and ao believing
wonld prefer temporary defeat to victory
tory won at the sacrifice of what be be'
lievee to be right. A futioniat ia one
who either has no political principles, or
who cares so little (or them that be is
ready to barter them for tbe aake of
office; political street-walkers hawking
their wares where tbe market promises
most. Yes, tbe Plajndiaub ia middle-of-the-road
republican paper. The
Review is a fusion organ.
It ia said that A. Richely, a Portland
architect, has reported tbat this state
cannot famish suitable stone for the
new goveanment building to be erected
in Portland. lie ia either ignorant of
tbe facta in regard to Oregon atone or be
wilfully misstates them. Douglas coun
ty baa well-developed quarries of excel
lent building stone, which from actual
government tests will resist almost as
great crushing power ss any in Ihe
United States. There are buildings in
Portland built wholly or in part of this
stone, which have withstood the ravages
of time for almost a quaiter of a century
with no evidence of dei alteration.
This etoue ia ou the hue of the Houtueru
I'a'.ilio road and can be bamOed at very
mall cost.
Will some good, kind populist or free
silver frieud tell us of any reform meas
ure, w hlch was ever enacted into a law
by the democrat party V Will (he)' refer
us to uny inatauce iu the history of this
country, where the democratic parly,
having been cutrusted witb power, used
it for Ihe betterment of mankind? Cau
they refer na to a single instance when
tbe people, having placed the democratic
party in power, were not sorry for it ?
What aBsurauce have they tbat if tbey
assist the democratic to regaiu coutrol of
tho got'oru incut, it will hi did'oreut from
vrhat it has huou iu the past?
Let every republican attend tbe pri
mariea on April 2nd, and aee that repre
sentative republicans who will attend
the contention are elected delegate.

We are in hop. that the situation is
Dot io bad as has been predicted. We
do not believe that there is imy present
intention on the part of the company to
remote the division termiuaU from
Roseburg. It is true that for the present
some of the passenger crews will change
at Riddle. We think there should to a
public meeting of the cilius called at
which the matter can be discussed from
a business sUndpoint and a committee
appointed to investigate tho nutter acd
take any steps which may I ueccesaiy
in the premises.
CAT O'MNE TAILS AT Till; PENI
TENTIARY. Ihe 1'ortland Tribune givrs iu account
of the attempted escape of two convicts
from the Oregon slate ptuiten'iary and
staets that on their recapture I hey were
bound to the whipping post, wLcte caen
received "3 lashes on his bare back
-vs !
50 lashes is all that prisons of average
nhvsinue can endure without utter col
lapse and probable death. Ihe inhumani
ty and barbarity of such punishment
can be in some measure understood.
The horrors of the Spanish inquisition
call to cur miud to greater puuiehmcnt
than this, and when it is remembered
that the puoiahmeut was for do greater
crime than cn attempt or; tbe part of the
convicts to regain their liberty, without
force or injury to any one, it ought lo
cause every lover of Li'uiauity to blush
with shame.
With one or two exception?, every
northern state has long agj liecardei
the whipping post as a means of punish
ment and it is not to the credit of this
state that they cling to this relic of bar
barism. County treasurer Krater refuses io re
sign until after be ia officially notified .(
his appointment as postmaster at Kcse
burg. Therefore, the accomodating
county court has decided to hold a spe
cial eeasion at the expense of the tax
payers on April 7th, the day after the re-
pu olican convention, ai mai uujo iuc

will be appointed treasurer to succeed
Mr. Frater; the commissioners will get

The above is an uncalled-for, uuj itt
nngentlemanly, insinuation againct
County Treasurer Frater and Commis
sioners Thompson and Nichols. Who has
asked County Treasurer Frater to resign ?
IIow could be refuse to resign unless
asked to do so? W!.y should he resign
until he is ready to take charge of the
postofEce? Si far as the commissioners
are concerned, nothing that "Toiler"
FiBhercan say will have the effect of
distracting one iota from their well
earned reputation as economical and
painstaking servants of the people.
The Rogue River Courier, speakiug of
the fusion state conventions now iu ses
sion at Portland, sayd: "Many people
are waiting with btei lieath to see
what ia going to be done." From whr.t
we know of the gang, we aia of the opin
ion that the men with the "bated
breath" are about all attendiog the con
vention. It ia announced that the Astoria and
Columbia River railroa 1 will be com
pleted to Astoria by April Utb, and that
the first train from Portland to Astoria
will be ao excursion train bearing the
delegatea to the republican 6tato conven
tion. The congressional campaign commit
