There Is to be found hanging upon the walls of the different business houses of tbe city what purports to be a business chart of Southern Oregon. The chart is not noticed by one person in five hundred, and yet this same chart cost our business men in tbe way of amounts paid for adveitising their cards therein about $600. Tbe printing of tbe chart was an expense to the publisher counting traveling expeu, see, etc. not more than $150, and his profits were at least $430. Had tbe business men i of Southern Oregon given Ibis $600 to their local news papers for advertising they would cer tainly have given publicly to their business, and got their advertisements In print in a way that they would have been, seen; besides, they would have helped the newspapers which are always helping them. j J " " Officers Elected. ' At the last regular meeting of Rose- burg Lodge No. 10, A. O. U. W., the following officers were elected for the tbe term commencing January 1st, 1880, and ending June 1st, 1880: P.

A postal regulation has been In force now for two months, which Is not well known among business men, or it would be more generally availed. We refer to the fact that statements, bills, etc, can now be mailed in an unsealed envelope with a cent stamp. Thus tbe monthly statements which are made out by wholesale and retail dealers each month, can be mailed for one cent, but no writing otner than tbe legitimate bill can be placed on tne abatement, rio sucn words "lease semlt ' can be, neither can a TK'M recti i. ted be sent. If it is neces- sary to have I sary to have tne words "please remit" on tbe statement or bill they can be I r in ted as part of tbe beading. Jf ub lsbers of newspapers have the right to enclose bills for subscriptions in their papers, and also receipted bills for tbe same ; but not to write the word, "please remit,'' which, however may be printed on tbe bill wltnout infringing the law Christmas Tree at Civil Bend. From Mr. L C. Kent we learn that there were jolly times at Civil Bend school houce Christmas Eve. There was a Christmas tree and Uncle Johnny Quinn played the part of Santa laus to the merriment of all. Tbe tree was finely decorated with wax tapers aud ladJd with presents, and nobody was forgotten. After tbe distribution of f ifts all present voted to surprise Mr. as. Deve.iD, to whose house they re paired. Mr. Develin did n t look for anything of the kind, but invited old and young to take possession of bis residence. Tbe party did so. aud dancing was kept up long after tbe hour when all w eh each other a merry, merry Christmas. Death of Father Gillam. Mr. Corbin Gillam, generally known throughout the county Father Gillam a devou man and a highly respected gentleman dejiart ed this life at tbe residence of Mr. Jos. McKinny, Wednesday last. The de ceased was aged 83 vears last August. He was tbe father of Mexsrs. T. J. Gill am, Wm. Gillam, David Gillam, and aiso tne lamer or Airs, jotin .'. Aiken. of this city. He was grandfather to Messrs. jonn u. AiKeu, Jos. e. Aiken, Edger Aiken, Corbin Grubbe aud No lan Grubbe. His burial took place tbe day after Christmas; aud let it be said of tbe deceased tbat a good, pious man has departed from earth to take up a home in heaven. .Caai of Rusia. We now congratulate the Czar of Russia upon a narrow escape from an attempt on his life. In starting for Moscow, his baggage was sent on ahead, be, startiug soon after passed it and reached Moscow safely, while tbe baggage was blown up. A tuunel was found running to a house one hun dred and fifty feet from the point where the explosion oecurted. It is supposed the author of this hellish plot was suffering from a disease J mind superinduced by severe pain in the back aud kidneys, to prevent a repetition of like occurrences, it is said tbe Csar has sent to Hodge, Davis Co., Portland, Oregon, for a large ship ment of the Oregon Kidmey Tea Narrow Escape. On Chrintmas eve Mr. and Mrs. Compton attended the ball of the Social Club. They left a fire in tbe parlor stove. On their return to tbeir home on Christmas mornimr at 3 o'clock, they discovered tbe floor on fire and a hole burnt through the same two or tnree reet square. Had tiiev come back an hour later the building would not escaped destruction and sih closely is it connected with other buildings, the greater portion or lioee burg would bave been burned. A spark from tbe stove probably caused tne nre. . Philallathean Programme.

Many farmers bad ex hausted their feed and cattle were in some iustauces bordering upon starvation. He reports in addition that Mr, Wm. Day has sold his inter est in the saw mill to the Stanley Bros., and that Mrs. Oates (Hugh Barrs' sister) is no (tetter.

Stephens a Co- are having a fine lot of logs cut for their mill, and par ties desirous of purchasing lumber for fencing or fine finishing lutnbei for building purposes, can get it there to suit both as to quality, quantity aud price. We learn through a friend that tbe notorious "Apwer" at the Calapooia Christmas tree received the gold ring for being the ugliest man In the coun ty. He doubleas now baa matrimo nial intentions ; but we would advise bim to go to Woodward's garden and be placed on exhibition. One of Coles valley's young gentle men, whose name we refrain from mentioning, started down to Hubbard creek ( bristmas Eve after his previ opsly engaged dulcina, and succeeded in getting within about a mile of his destiny when his horses broke through tne ice. One horse fell pulling the other down on him, which resulted in crippling one horse and ruining the harness-, leaving the hack to await a thaw. The young man returned to Umpqua Ferry sadly and alone. RICE HILI. Butchering all the go. Weather cold and business dull. F. Thiele caught a young Santa ( laus in the fishpond. Tbe fishpond was more than twice as large this year than it was last. Au f I ary Rice got a fine set of furs on the Cnristmas tree.

But fortunately found about 2 o'clock of tbe same day. The fartherest way around is the nearest way to the fire. UMPQUA FERRY. Indications of a storm. There was a raffle for a gun here en the 30th ult. The ball on Christmas Eve was a complete succe-s, and every one who attended pronounces it the best they ever participated in. There were 29 numbers sold. We understand "Apwer" carried away the prize as the ugliest man on the Calapooia, decided by a vote at the Christmas tree. We congratulate him on his bad looks. So mote it be. The Dog is Dead. The East Portland Vindicater blinds tbe sad intelligence of tbe death of Thomas C. Raffety at that place on December 16th. Thos. C. Raffety was oue of the largest stub-tailed dogs we ever met with. For years he he had been met with at tbe drugstore ot Raffety Brow., East Portland, and was known by at least a thousand people in the State. Thomas C. was the father of, many barkers, but no sou or daughter of his ever equalled the father iu worth or general notori ety. Mallory Raffety was Thomas' owner. To him we say, old man, we sympathise with you in your great bereavement.

It was rumored on tbe streets last evening that Uncle John Jones and two of his family had beeu taken seri ously and suddenly ill, and that tbe symptoms of tbeir complaints were those of persons who have taken pol son. We were unable to trace tbe ru morto any reliable source, and can only hope that the rumor is uufound ed, so far as the poisoning part of the story is concerned. There can be no doubt as to tbe illness of the family. Serious Loss. A private dispatch received in this city states that tbe boom holding tbe logs at Mr. J. J. Comstocks' mill near Latham has bioke and the logs con tained therein have been swept down the coast fork of the Willamette river. The logs and the boom are a total loss.

Cai TO .tiixe, Ogn., Deo. 80, 1879. Eoitob Dowlas Independent : I see the "competition" has not received "encouragement" enough to repair the canyon road : yet it must have more encouragement soon, or the road will be impassable. Now, the court should know that the amieui turia that stood in the right position to receive tbe benefits of this "competition" and take the road, requires a large amount of encouragement. It is a long, hungry subject one end in Canyonvllle and the other la Roseburg, (I do not know which end the head or tail- is here, but tbe disbursing pocket is In Roseburg and the receiving pocket is here) and mmt bave more encourage ment. Some of the people here are not in favor of giving this "competi tion" any more encouragement. They say there is no competition, tbe first company being enjoined from collecting toll the present company has no opposition, and they say it is no benefit to the public ; for tbe rates of toll allowed tbe first company was only sixty cents for a wagon and one horse, and eighty cents for a wagon aud two horses, and the preseut com pany, or the "competition," are al lowed eighty-eight cents for a wagon aud one horse, and ninety-six cents for a wagon aud two horses. Well, I do not see myself how this encourages competition or benefits the public; but I am a friend of the court aud know it does do it, or the court would not have said it did. Aud I know It was right to take the road from the other com pany tbat built it, and give it to the amieui curiae, or the court would not have done it ; for I am a friend of the court, and theae grumblers will soon learn that they will gain nothing by abusing this court. But this con yon road is a small matter compared with what I wish to have doue to en courage competition, and when I have ! unfolded my plans you will readily see ! the immense benefit it will be to the public, and what a lively competition it will make. It is simply this: The railroad between Roseburg and Port land, as now conducted, Is a monopo ly. Now to encourage competition and break down this monopoly, "for the public good, rather than private gain" I wish the court to take that railroad from the present Owners and give .it to me. l ,am tne amtcui eurae that will stand in tbe right po sition to receive the encouragement to this competition. And if I get the road all tbe courts and attorneys, all newspaper men, stage men, hotel and saloon keepers shall have "free passes" over the road, and everybody else, without regard to nativity, color, or previous condition of servitude shall travel for half-fare (not merely high days and holidays, but all the time, aud all freights shall be carried at half-price. Now all that is necessary to insure success in tnis enterprise, is for tbe parties to be benefitted by It, tbe parties to bave "passes," balf-fare and half-price freight, to "stand In" with me and the court, (I am a friend of the court) in this matter, and we are bound to succeed. I tell you, Mr. Editor, this is a grand enterprise and no chance fur a failure, for the court will undoubtedly follow its decision iu the Canyon road case and "everybody" being interested with me, I should like to kuow where any opposition is to come from. Just ''stand in'' every body and I will get this rtiiroud sure. Then "come out of tbe house, Mo Cartney," and we will all take a ride at the expense of Pick-handle Dick. P. S. Do not forget tbat I am a frieud of the court. P. D. JACKSON COUNTY. From tbe Jacksonville Sentinel, one of our best exchanges, we take the fol lowing interesting items of news : Dr. J. A. Callender arrived here from Roseburg last Monday and is. the guest of John Miller, his father-in-law. Died in Ashland, December 14th, 1879, Mrs. Elizabeth Hill, relict of Isaac Hill, aged 73 years,3 months and days. We saw last week a luclous looking orange weighing ten and a half ounces that had just ripened on the tree of our fellow townsman, Peter Britt. A circular from the heaviest wool dealers in New York, informs us that Oregon wool rates are higher in tbat market than any on this cpast or in Texas. It is tbe opinion of one of our most thorough " sheep men" that if tbe present weather continues two weeks longer, Jackson county will be $50. ooo loser in sheep alone. On the first or th torra, Mr. Marks of Ashland, who has a large number of Angora goats on little Applegate, lost ten of the flock, by freezing and on the next day in cutting down a tree for them to browse one he killed thir teen more. Advices from Lake county indicate that the prospects for stock are very gloomy. On the 23d there was ten Inches of snow at Linkville and the mercury had fallen to 10 degrees be low zero. Many large bands of cattle are scattered ou the range where they must emit for tnemseives. It is with regret that we note the loss of the schooner May D. Pomeroy, which sailed from Crescent City for San Francisco on Dec. 14th. Bhe is supposed to bave capsized near Point Reyes having been found bottom up off tbe Point. All hands have perished besides twelve passengers, among whom was David Pomeroy, of the firm of Hobbs, Pomeroy a Co. of San Fran' clsco. R.M. Garret brought into the Sen tinel office on Saturday a handsome nugget of gold mixed with quartz, about the size of a small ben's egg and worth $100. The "specimen" was taken out of the claim of John Mel drum on the Carberry Fork of Apple gate, and on tbe same day Mehlrum took out twelve ounces besides of smaller pieces, varying from fifty cents to twenty dollars, the result of only a week's ground sluicing.
