SMALL POX SCARE. Last Friday" morning it was dis rnvprAd flint, n hnv who had recovered f, cu - ;n cknni nr. nt once the Health Officer ordered a dis missal of all'the pupils, and they were turned loose to helter-skelter all over town and spread , consternation. On Saturday the School Directors had the room in which the bov went in on Fri day thoroughly fumigated, ard on lion day morning when school assembled therewas trouble "between the Health Officer and the School Board. The Health Officer-wanted -evety room in r.hf hnildirio- fnmio-nrprl rpfnrn school J J T J V1J was cumuieuieu, ami uie cuaiu ucm thai' hi J mom trn smffirW Tfcum,e f m Pr ATvmMT n tw. am bound to hhv 'small nnr unnn J will vP. nillvP. nnd if there is n0 other way it is to be scared into us. It.is stated that every pupil in the public school has been vaccinated and that vaccination prevents small pox. If this theoiy is true all the children in the school were immune from the disease and there was no need to turn the school out or to raise afuss about the matter. Obsei ration teaches us that if there is small pox in the city it is being most assiduously propagat ed by doctors themselves, for the reason they attend their smallpox patients or as health officers and they wear the same clothing day in and day out, week in and week out, and this convinces us that the public is being humbugged or scared, or the small pox germs are being most liber ally sown around town and left to fructify and increase by the millions every hour. The scare is over and the quicker we forget such unpleasant hnsrnPRs thu Wtor it. vrill Lp fnr f ho community at large. OUR MODERN JUQOERNAUT. About three thousand years ago India there was a temple erected in to the god Jugannath or Juggernaut, whose worshin consisted in deeds hv giving up the most valued or loved TMSKftsrinn fmd tchon fho rar rfm - taining the ready made, hand-me- down god Juggernaut made a pil onmao-o thnnsnnris rvf . cfrnnnr mnn n t. t ' "v x, . 77 luc Wl we Biieeia oi cnuvaneswar, and mothers would throw the babes sucking at their breasts under the car wheels and thnn ratio's rmnn n,,!, nf l,nn.gn . , , -c j ii. "uc"u" uc sawuiwai . tuc car was pulled around a circle; and the sacrifice only stopped when it was imnnssihlft to move the car whir.h through it3 f great -weight became mired in a slough of mud made by the blood of the victims. This wor ship was only stopped about thirty years ago by the British government. When we think of such a horrible state of public degredation, ignorance and superstition we are appalled. We are Christians enlighted by the ora cles of God; we boast of a civiliza-tion,-refinment and a spiritual worship and yet we are no -better than the Hindoos who sacrificed their children to Juggernaut. We pride ourselves that our reli gion teaches us to bring up our child- - ren to be honest, virtuous and indus trious and in our desire not to clash up against others because it might not be profitable from the dollar standpoint, :we allow our children to be surrounded by vice, crime, im morality and dishonesty. For years in the very heart of Roseburg on a block adjoining the public school we frr have allowed a bagnio to exist to work its immoral effect upon the young. We know it is wrong, but our own children will not be de moraL'sed, for "In God we trust," and our example will save them is the flattering unction we lay to our souls as we see our neighbors' boys and girls ground up under the wheels of the Juggernaut's chariot. But this is not all a regular hell hole of conaption is to be started, if it has not been started, in the very heart cf the city, "and a temple is to be dedicated to debaucheiy and vice, and shall the monstrous evil be al lowed to flaunt its shame and general demoralization because of the money it puts in circulation? Shall lechar pv,b lewdness thiost itself ten times more prominently before the public than it has already done? Shall we longer tolerate the abomination be cause we think more of the almighty dollar than we do of the welfare of our children and society at large? If it is to exist why not create a ! hell's half acre and compel the de votees of immorality and vice to keep to alloted quarters and make a bad land district and keep the prostitutes in their designated habitat? The Plaindealer will have more to say along these lines and it cares not who opposes its course for it will do its duty by the citizens of Rose burg in attempting to break down the iniquity nOW tilling and govern- Jng J10 cy Antl Saloon League Meeting. Yesterday Captain Mahone of the Anti Saloon League of Oregon, branch of the national organization, delivered three lectures in Roseburg. The first was in the morning at the Presbyterian church, in the afternoon a mass meeting was held in the Meth odist church and at night a union meeting was held in the Christian church. At each of the meetings he told of the success of the League in various towns he had visited in Ore gon and what was being done by the League in other states and showed how the machine was tun. At each of the meetings there was a goodly number of women but at the after noon and night meetings many prom inent followers of the meek and low ly Nazarine were most conspicuous bv their absence and several who did attend seemed to be in about as bad a fix as a bob tailed steer in fly time The sneaker stated that the saloons - . the city were then running ful Mast and that there were reports of gambling and women; while the build kg in which the postoffice was tun was a ana we wonaereu M HT K lit 11 how Postmaster Frater will ease up mat ters at Washington anyway the Plaindealer on its own volition, now that the matter is up, says: the post office is ran in a building in violation of the law or postal regulations of the United States but like so many things, we are so fossilized, that we do not know or care what our rights are or what is for the best in terest of the rising generation, and another thing the Plaindealer wi say: If one half of the stories tol about affairs are tide, the President should immediately appoint another postmaster, for if the reports are true thev are a malig nant cancer on the body politic and especially the Republican party of Douglas county, we know nothing about the facts, however. But to return to the speaker, he said that every precinct m Douglas county would be thoroughly organized and the saloons would be forced to obey the law and that gambling and brothels in connection with saloons must cease by the power of the law. To night another meeting will be held in the Methodist Episcopal church when a regular branch of the Anti-Saloon P3 wiUbe ituted in Rose- 1 burg. TEXAS HISTORY. hen Texas was organized as an m- dependent republic, Mexico would have gobbled it up very quickly as a portion of its domain, had not the United States cometotne rescue, and there was no treat-v obligation, as in the Panama case M d s0- The only opposition of conse- quence at the time, was on account of the Democratic administration then in power, going back on the declaration of oi-iO or fight, which lost us British Col urabiato the Alaskan line, as this country had a better right of claim than Canada or England. The principle desire for securing Texas, was to extend slave ter ritory, without success, as all the Pacific Coast portion secured from Mexico by treaty of peace made anti-slavery States. Medjord Mail. The above is erroneous. Texas de clared independence from Mexico and set up a republic of her own and at Goliad and the Alamo the Texas forces were massacred. The patriots retreated with their families to a point about twelve miles southeast of the present city of Houston, where General Santa Anna and the Mexican forces overtook them on a bend of the San Jacinto river. The Texans gave battle and completely routed the Mexicans taking Santa Anna pris oner and he signed a treaty and rati fied the organization of Texas as an independent republic, and while Texas was a republic she joined the union as a state. The United States did not battle for Texas independence. OUR POSITION. The Plaindealer has been asked to support a democrat for office under promise of support, and our position may as well be stated now as any other time: We have no use for a democrat who expects a republican paper to stultify itself by supporting him for office, nor have we any use for a republican who looks to demo cratic newspapers or democrats to elect him to office. A man who looks for the support of both parties to elect him to office is an allround traitor and is merely an independent candidate. Roosevelt's Strong Point. It is pretty plain that the Roosevelt administration has not much patience with the old style of governing by po litical pull. This is a most hopeful sign. When the business of tho Government shall be conducted fin the bans of ho; es- ty and efficiency, rather than upon the xpodiency of practical politics it will be better Government. It will bo rather touch on the Oregon delegation, aa now organized. But tho people at largo will ciiin what tho political healers and wire pullers and tho whole retinue of Eervil blatherskites lose. Many who are now forced against their In'Uer judgment in to the dirty pool of practical politics wilj rejoice when wo have an end of govern ment by political pull. The Roosevelt administration is a long step in that di rection. Bend Bulletin. The Plaindealer is rejoiced to know that there is another republican newspaper m the state ot uregon that is republican from principle and and supports President Roosevelt be- ause he is a true republican and not i spoilsman. A man who believes m purity of private as well as public life and who stands like the Rock of Gil- briltar against con option and corrupt methods. When the votes are count ed out next November it will bo found that Theodore Roosevelt received more for President than any previous candidate in the United States. PROTECTING CRIME. The City Marshal is making a faith ful effort to suppress vice and crime and the city recorder can be depend ed upon to do his duty m all cases coming before him; but there is an otlicial in Roseburg who is standing in with corruption and law-breakers and attempts to run both the Marsha' and Recorder. He has stated to vio lators of law what their fine shall be and has attempted bulldozing the of ficers so as to ran the court in the in terest of violators of law. These are the reports and if they are true there ought to be one citv official out of a job. Legislative Proceedings. The Legislature was called togeth er this morning in special session by the proclamation of the Governor, there being but a veiy few members absent. The special communication from the Governor to both branches of the State Legislature was vei v brief and referred to one subject, It's a great word, isn't all it means a good deal. In sickness you should only upon the skill of your Reliance the druggist to compound your medicine with accuracy. Every Doctor in Roseburg has inspected our labora torj' and approved our facilities for filling his prescriptions We would like to have RELIANCE PACKAGES iu doctor prescribes for an' one Fullerton - REGISTERED Near Depot "Taxation." This evening a caucus of Republican members of both the House and Senate will be held to de termine if other legislation shall be taken up and to what extent new measures shall be considered. There is talk of appropriating $100,000 to purchase ground for a canal to be built at government expense and to constuct the Celilo Portage road al so at State expense. Nobody can tell what will be done until after the caucus has decided. Hold Up on West Roseburg Bridge. On Saturday evening at about six o'clock one of our highly respected young married ladies was going home and when near the center of the bridge was roughly accosted by a holdup. The young women commenced to scream and as several other fel lows had passed over the bridge only a few minutes before they evidently thought it best to beat a hasty re treat. Beyond the effect of the fright no damage was done nor was any money taken. When the officials refuse to put on more special policemen to break up the reign of terror and to protect citizens they are protecting and fos tering crime. I. O. O. F. McetlnR. The institution of tho new IcJgoof Odd Fellows in this city Saturday, by Grand Master, Jos. Micelli, was one of the most elaborate institution of officers ever held in Roseburg. Tho banquet served at tho Armory Hall after the completion of the work initiating the new members, under the auspices of the Rebekah Lodge, was a fitting climax to the evening's program. Tho tables were well arranged and decorated with American beauties. About 250 guests were present. Tho grand officers who wcro prctent and took part in the institution of tho new lodge, were: Joseph Micelli, grand master; D SK Buick, deputy grand master; J J Walton, grand warden; E E Sharon, grand secretary; W M Green, grand treasurer; M Svarverud, grand marshal ; J V Strange, grand conduc tor; B F Nichols, grand guardian; John j Hall, grand herald.

I)r E V Hoover, J D Hamilton, Geo M Beard, B Brockway, T Bridges, M 1) Thompson, D G Palm, A Salzman, F II Rogers, F V Woolloy, os H Sykra, .1 V Hamilton. Tlioy 'looted the following officers: A Salz man, i v ; .u I) lliompson, V u; 1 w Micelli, Secy.; J T Bridges, Treaa; Geo M Brown, . I V Hamilton and B Brock- way, trustees. Pile degree work of the order was con ferred upon them by the degree teams of the I'hilaterian Lodge No. S, of this citv. Tho now lo I go starts in with a very strong membership, and its existence will be permanent. Roseburg can easily support two strong I. 0. O. F. Lodges. Many expressed before hand the opin ion that tho two would consolidate be fore long. Myrtle Creek Mailings. Plumber Jas. M. Bridges of Roseburg is here fitting tho piping in the Hotel Johnson. D. C. Pitzier head mechanic for tho Johnson Lumber Co , has about finished work on the company's new office which is one of the finest in the county. It is said there is to Imj no Christmas tree in town Christmas. There is some work connected with getting one ar ranged, but there is a whole lot of en joyment in it for the younger ones.

Tiie tt'ra. P. Johnson Lumber Com pany held a special business meeting on Tuesdav evening. The different right- of-way troubles were adjusted and it was decided to begin bui'ding the rail road spur just as soon as it learned the kind of grade the S. P. Co. want. The J'J.000 necessarv for the work has been secured, and the spur wiil be built. Frank Randall languished in the county jail at Roseburg because he did not use due diligence in the use of other people's money. He had been given a ime money by friend" to keep for them but it proved to be a case of mis placed confidence. He started south but was apprehended at Glendale by the mar it?

The deceased was 24 years of age, and member of the abovo named church He was one of exemplary habits, activ in work of accomplishing something helpful to others, and was a good son The loss of his death will be felt in th community in which he lived. Another young man who promised to be all that his parents could wish has passed from earth to heaven. Charly Lewis, eldest child of Mr. and Mrs. N Andrews, was born in Illinois July 10, 1S31, and came with the family to Myr tie Creek in '03. He was a member of the M. E. church, and a member of the Workmen lodge in which he held a poli cy of flOOO a gift to his mother. II came home from Washington about twi weeks ago, and was immediately taken to his sick bed. He has been sick some time and constantlv grew worse until death. Rev. Zimmerman preached and tho ceremony was conducted by th Workmen order.
