Short speeches were made and the
meeting adjourned.
The Roseburg Plaindcaler has
the details of a most disgusting
case from Elk creek precinct, in
Donglas county. One Hancock
was arrested last week on a
charge of incest, preferred against
him by his sons. He was brought
to Roseburg, but waived an exam­
ination, and his bail was fixed at
♦2,000, in default of which he lin-
gercth in jail. It is stated that he
has had criminal intercourse with
four of his own daughters, three of
whom have had children by him.

If is estimated that Congress by
taking off the duties on tea and
coffee two years ago diminished the
revenue 125,019,463, and by other re­

diminished it in the further sum of

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. 1
THE STATE CONVENTION.
without a moments reflection that the
Convention will have important busi­
ness to transact. In the flYst place it
will have to adopt a platform of prin­
ciples that will be acceptable to the
party and the people. No glittering
generalities will suffice. It mu«t be
specific and cover all the points.
This accomplished, the Convention
will proceed to ’nominate the ticket.
None but good and competent men
should be selected. No dishonest or
incompetent person can be elected.
The Jeffersonian test should be ap­
plied to every candidate—“is he hon­
est, is he capable”—should be the in­
quiries in relation to eàsh aspirant,
and those who can not pass the exam­
ination should be left aside “until a
more convenient season.”
The State is naturally divided into
three parts, Eastern, Middle and
Southern, and each division should
be represented on the ticket. It is
dangerous to igfiore local claims, be­
cause tho slighted . sections may fail
to give the ticket a cordial support
and thereby imperil its success. And
we believe the Convention will en-
deavor to equitably adjust this mat-
ter, and if it succeeds in distributing
the candidates, success will be in­
sured.
•
If the Convention will give us a
good platform and a good ticket, se­
lected from localities entitled to rep­
resentation upon the. ticket we will
¿host certainly go forth to conquer. «-
TRONIZtNQ
This is an irritation or inflammation
of the bronchial tubes which ¡car­
ry the air we breathe into the lungs.
It arises from a cold settled in the
throat, from catarrh extending to
these parts, from scrofulous affections
and from severe use of voice. The ir-
ritatiou from this latter cause com­
menced in the larnyx and clottis,
which are the organs of the voice,and
extending
downwards,
produces
hoarseness, coughing and spitting
mucus matter, sometimes mixed with
blood. • It is chiefly dangerous from
its tendency to spread into the lungs,
and terminate in consumption. It is
in the cure of severe and obstinate
cases of this disease that Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery has achi ev­
ed unparalleled success and won the
loudest praise from all who have used
it. It is sold by all respectable drug­
gists.
