ANOTHER FIT.
The following appeared in the Rose
burg Review of J urn- S, 1903 :
Some surprise was occasioned Satur
day when it was announced that the
official canvass of the vote of Douglas
county had been made without following
the unvaried practice of calling a Justice
of the Peace ot the opposite political
party to participate therein. While
there has been no intimation that thel
lootings were not properly maue, me
people alwavs feel belter satisfied with
the results if both parties are repre
sented during the final canvass, as the
law provides. Officials who thus arbl
trarilv take matters in their own hands
and establish such a dangerous precedent
are not likely to much longer be placed
in positions of pieferment. No reflec
tion is made cr intended upon either of
the justices called upon in this instance.
HilPs & Cotton's Annotated Laws of
Oregon, Section 2S33, Vol. 2, page 95S,
reads as follows ;
On the 10th day after the close of the
election, or sooner if all the returns be
received, the County Clerk taking to
his assistance two Justices of the Peace
of the county, shall proceed to open
said returns and make abstract of the
votes.

So up Salt River he can paddle his ca

Ingles as the pilot, Elmore as the crew,
Oh ves Democrats, your wrath you
must appease,
For Reanies got the whey, while Her
mann got he cheese.
So fare you well, poor Evans, when fo
Congress you run,
lou wnl have to be something more
than just a Native Son.

Why will the citizens of Rosebnrg al
low their main thoroughfare to become
grass grown, anil trash strewn, when
they know th& it injures the beautv of
the ciry, and makes Roseburg less at
tractive to many bomeseekers who
are looking for a live up to date city,
where they ean build a beautiful home,
and live comfortably amid beautiful sur
roundings. Cass street, which has just
recently been improved at considerable
expense has become grass grown, and
ditty, weeds, thistles, oats, and popnlar
tree sprouts abound among the growth
which the citizens are allowing to over
grow their streets. The citizens and
business people on Sheridan street be
tween Lane and Cass, and Cass between
Sheridan and Pine streets take pride in
keeping their streets neat and cleaned,
and are rewarded for it by the comment
of the ta veling public, but oh ! how
different further up Cass, and on Jack
son streets.

A Tribute to a Pioneer,
Leland Locals.
Mrs. Clementina Trimble, rolect of
fho late Robert Trimblo, a pioneer of
52, died at Grants Paas, Oregon, Janu
ary 20, 1903.
Sho was born at Sandusky, Ohio,
Aug. 1, 1828. Sho was married to Rob
ert Tremble, July 3, 1840, with whom
she livee in the most pleasant marital
relation until his death which occurred
in 1870, just ono month after they had
mado their new home in Josephino
county, they having previously lived in
Douglas county.
The offspring of their union was eleven
children, eight of whom survive them,
iz: Mrs. Garrett Crockott, of Hugo;
Mrs. C. D. Williams, of Dillard ; John
and Charles Trimble, ot Chohalis,
Wash.; Mack Trimblo, of Bridal Veil,
Wash.; Wm. L. Trimblo, of Oregon
City; and Mrs. B. A. Williams, of
Grants Pass, with whom Mrs. Trimblo
lived during the latter years of her life.
Her children all gave to her the most
devoted, filial affection, and proved
themselves worthy of their noble parent
age .Mrs. irimble was a member of
the Christian church for many years
and her life was gilded by its sacred
tenets and during her long illness ami
at the timo of denii&e she was upheld
anu maue strong by the glorious prom
ises of revealed religion, and bade her
suviving children farewell, eucouraging
them to meet her in Heaven.
Thus one by one, as falls tho bcauti
ful leaves of autumn, are the revered
and beloved pioneers being gathered
home, f hey have endured tho dangers
and privations incident to pioneer life.
When our ulorious state was in its in
lancy anil was the abode ot savage
tribes of Indians, who terrorized the
early settlers by their ruthless massaere
of whole families at a time, many times
has this pioneer mother heard the
dreadful war-whoop of the savage?,
as they rode up to the door to
make demands for food that they did
not dare to refuse, while her husband
toiled early .nd late at the time hon
ored work of the anvil and forge, with
his trusty rifle standing by his side.
The passing years rewarded their la
bors and peace and plenty crowsiod
their efforts with success. The five, tall
sons all took up their father's tradeof a
blacksmith, and all have been remarka
ble for doing their work well, while the
daughters grew to useful and honored
womanhood. When the month of
affliction darkened their home, after
brief illness the beloved husband and
father was taken from them, called tf a
higher life, their grief was only that,
that the wife and children of such a
kind and tender father could fee 1. It
knew no consolation, anil for 32 years
Mrs. Trimble wore the sacred badge of
her widowhood, and her greatest pleas-
ure seemed to be to talk of the husband
of her youth, who was the one love of
her life.
i he pioneers are fast passing away.
and no monument to their memories
will ever express to coming generations
their real worth. As we enjoy their
grand heritage of the broad expanse of
beauty and wealth onr state contains,
let us recount to the new generations
about us the glowing history of their
grand achievements. They are gone.
Let us eee that their graves are kept
green, while in our hearts we will cher
ish their sacred memories.

Yon will notice that we do not have
to be continually str'-king out for a new
make of Pianos. Tho Needham has been
onr leader for 14 years and is today n
leader among tho high grade pianos of
the world. Sonio cheap pianos are made
high grido simply by getting a boost in
the Oregonirn or some otlior leading
paper, through those big dealers who
think they can, nnd do make the major

they say so. It doesn't take ink, boost

mechanics, and tho very best material
such as aro always used In Needham
