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

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

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

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

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

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-

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.

"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.

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

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.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications as they cannos
reach the deceased portion of the ear,
rhere is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
Imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed, deafness is the result, and un
less the inflamation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous services.
We will give One Hundred Dollors for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
