Gates, a Democ rat elected from Lake and "Wasco coun ties, is the last to desert the Demo cratic ranks and go over to the Mitch ell fold. He is an old ma", in second childhood and heretofore has sustained a fair reputation. It is said he yielded to the silent argument and fell down and worshipped at the shrine of mam mon and hereafter will be placed by the side of Judas Iscariot, Long, Sifers, Curtis and Benedict Arnold, in the minds of all honest people. Ihe old man is truly more an object of pity than of Ecorn. Appointments. -1 Next Sabbath there will be a basket meeting at Boggs' school house, on Deer creek. At 11a.m. Rev. J. R. N. Bell will p -each the funeral sermon of Thomas Henry, deceased, and M. C. Miller will preach at 2.30 p. m. The first quarterly meeting for this circuit, M. E. Church South, will be held at Hud son's school house, October 14th and 15kh. On Sabbath, at 1 1 o'clock, Rev. J. R. N. Bell will preach the funeral sermon of Mary Burnett. The New BoARD.-j-A new Board of Trustees for the city was elected last Monday, and it is expected that upon their organization they will exhibit great energy, for a short time at least It is therefore an opportune moment to suggest some very much needed leg islation. The most important of which is the passage j of an ordinance requiring property -holders to clean their cess-pcols. It is notorious that upon the principal business streets the majority of these are nuisances, pain ful to the olfactories and to health. Tbey not only poison the -atmosphere, but what is more dangerous, they poison the waters of the well, and should be attended to at once, j An ordinance is also needed requiring the property holders to keep their; sidewalks in re pair. A very short iwalk around the pity will prove to any pedestrian that a )arge portion of the sidewalks are un safe at nignt, while the projecting spikes make them equally dangerous in daylight In case of a broken limb or other injury from this cause, the corporation would be liable, it is therefore the part of , wisdom to pro Yide against them. And while upon . this subject it is in order to enquire why the ordinance requiring the build, ng of sidewalks is not enforced in every case. There is twp at least that have keen passed but not enforced. The new Board will jdoubtless attend to this matter. IMPORTANT NOTICE. All not 58 and accounts due Floed it Co., (J. C. Floed,1 Jr., and Virgil Conn) must be settled at once. We pan give no further time. Sept. 29, 1882. LOCAL BREVITIES. Good lunch day and night, daring court week, at the Metropolitan saloon. Tbe wool crop this year bromises to fully equal that of last year in this county, Mr. Jerry Haines of Coos City, was in town this week on business with the land office. , . The Hon. James Chenowith of Oak land, was in the city on Wednesday and received a fins lot of young cattle from several different persons from whom he had purchased- He is one of the live men whose thrift and energy go to make up the prosperity of a State or county. The heavy rains thin week have re tarded the sheep shearing throughout the county; But the g-rass it will bring forth will more than compensate the farmer for the delay. It's an ill wind that blows no man good luck, The Cod Bay railroad is at a stand still and the corps of engineers has re turned. D. C. McClelland of the com missary department, has failed to m nke his report, and there is something dark that needs investigating. The molass es is unaccounted for. Mrs. Wm. Carll, wife of the Superin tendent of the Overland Stage Compa ny. Is at the Metropolitan hotel, under treatment for erysipalis in the face. Her friends will be pleaded to learn that she is rapidly recover' ng. Rev. Isaac Driver arrived in town this week. He is now Presiding Elder of this district, much to the gratifica tion of his many friends- Mr. Driver has been a faithful servant in the line of his duty and has suffered much per secution on that account. His congre gations for that reason give him a more hearty welcome. Capt. John Kruse, the ship builder from North Bend. Coos county, gav e us a plearant call . He says be lias a new steamer on the ways for Simpson & Co., intended fer freight. This is an xper iment for the company, which has heretofore built sailing vessels exclu sively. There has been received at the ware., house of S. Marks & Co.. at Roseburg' 1,500 t ns of wheat! at Flood's about 1,000 tons. Lsrge quantities have been received at the Grange and by Abra ham, Wheeler & Co-, and the farmers are not through hauling. Gates A Cilteser have stored about 6,000 bushels ti wheat and want more. The capacity of the Roseburg Mills is taxed to their utmost extent nd yet they are compelled to limit their cus tomers. They expect soon to be able to accommodate all who call upon them. The following named persons are pre paring t r their examination for ad mission to the bar of the Supreme Court next Wednesday. George JI. Thurston, R. P. Boise Jr., and W. jtf. Lyleof Salem; George A. Porria and George 8. Noland, of Eugene City; Nathaniel Hudson of Eastern Oregon, and Eugene Brackett of Canyon City. There will doubtless be several irom Portland, making in all a large class. Mr. J. Denny of this county, says the Albany Herald, received from his brother, Hon. O, N- Denny, U, 8. con sul In China, a consignment of fowls from that country, among the number being 24 pheasants, seventeen females and seveu males. These latter were set at liberty by Mr. Denny oo ids farm, a few miles from Lebanon, with the object of propogating the species. Sev eral broods have been seen this Fall, and the birds seem to be thriving nicely. ' A shooting scrape occurred at Gardi ner ou Sunday of last wee. It appears that a man named Ott walked into a saloon and insulted an old man who was smoking, and on being reproved for the insult drew a revolver and shot at the man who interfered. The bullet struck on a vest button and glanced into hi pantaloons. When arretted by Constable Reed. Ott drew a revolver which was taken from him befoie Le had time to shoot. He was held to an swer in the sum of $1,000, We were unable to learn furtu er particulars. Th) substantial and reliable firm of Booth Bros., who have been doing business in Yon call a for the last few years, whose dissolution notice appeats elsewhere in this paper, undoubtedly merit the high esteem in which they are heli by the community with which they have lived and done business. They are young men who have lived in this Stare and county from mere youtb, and the success which they have attained in business is owing to pluck and energy with which they are endowed. R. A. retires from tbe firm and tbe business will bo conducted by J. O- We understand that Robert in tends engaging i" the milling busi ness in that neighborhood. They both have our beet wishes for success. Theie is a mineral sprirg about two miles and a half west of Roseburg, on the land ot George W. Jones, which for i s medical properties surpasses any that has yet been discovered in this neigh borhood. The water is of a clear white ish color, in appearance similar to pure alcohol, in taste slightly brackish and unpleasant. It issues from a ledge of rocks, close to the bed of the South Umpqua river, and consequently can only be obtained dating the dry season of the year. Many persons suffering with long standing complaints have been using the water for a short time, and without exception have received great benefit from its use,, for such complaints as heart disease, rheuma tism and catarrh. Quite a number of persons suffering with catarrh of years standing, experienced immediate re lief, and some of them claim an abso lute cnret . 8. Minard has returned fro m Eastern Oregon and from the opinion he ex presses of the bunch grass country it is not prouable he will go there to locate, as he is not particularly stuck after the sagebrush, and sajs he would not give one good farm in the Umpqua for the whole of Umatilla county. The city election on last Monday was a very quiet affair, there was a host of candidates and only 129 votes cast. The saloons remained closed all day, tbe air was damp and it was cloudy and the numerous candidates for City Marshal, with all their energy, ' lailed to get up any enthusiasm. The officers elected are: Trustees, F. P. Ilogau, Aeher Marks. Dr. N, P. Bunnell, G. W. Woodward and P. Benedict; Pecorder, W. S. Humphrey; Treasurer, R. S. Sheridan; Ma:shal, Henry Bo wen. Mrs. Anna M. L- Potts M. D., com menced a course of medical lectures at the Presbyterian church in this place, last Monday evening, and although the weather has been unusally disagreeable she has had large audiences. This la dy is a very fluent speaker and at times becomes eloquent as she discourses of the various "ills that fl;su U heir to." The series will conclude Saturday evening, we believe, when Mrs. Potts will proceed to Jacksonville We can assure Our friends in that . place and elsewhere that these lectures are well worth hearing, as the subjects are treated in a scientific and interesting manner. G eorge W. Dimmick, the gentleman ly Deputy Sheriff who lor the laat wo months has had charge of the office in the absence of the chief, has resigned the position an i retu rned to his old home on the Ump qua to look after the wintering of his rtoek. During the short time he remained in the Sheriff's office, by his genial and gentlemanly bearing and prompt and efficient course, won the confidence and e&teem of a 1 who have had business to transact with him. During his stay in Rosoburg he has made himself a boat of friends of both sexes, who regret the loss of his company. Whether deeper attach men is than mere friendship exist, rumor sayeth not, but the distance in not so great bu t we hope to see him in our midst frequently. Come often, George, you are ever welcome. WILBUR CORRESPONDENCE. Ed. Independent: I see a denial by the little editor of the Plaindealer, in last week's issue. Now is the ac cepted time to speak out in behalf of truth and honesty. There has never been a time in the history of Oregon when a few ring politicians were more desperately striving to rule or ruio, than the present. The end seems to justify the means now being us.d tp elect as IT. S.' Senator one of the worst men, morally speaking, in the State. One word in regard to the work of the ring last Spring in nominating our Representatives. You know, as well as I and hundreds of other citizens, that for weeks before the county con vention the federal ring was at work to find out who would do to risk as Mitchell men for candidates. The opinion of all the candidates was known to be favorable but one, and be has since the election, been "over per suaded." I am fully satisfied that if the vote were taken at this time, two to one of both parties would oppose Mitchell. I have been told by a prom inent Republican that the hopes of the ring last Spring was to deceive the convention into nominating Mitchell men, and they succeeded too well." Everywhere throughout the county we hear Republicans declare they would rather seo tbe eighteen hetot s who represent the freedom of choice, and who cannot be bought or sold, fol low the example of California and elect a good, honest, high-minded Dem ocrat, such as Prim or Shattuck, or any man but Hippie Mitchell So mote it be. Republican. A MYSTERIOUS MURDER. One day last week the body of an unknown man was found . floating in tie Willamette river, near . Portland, with his throat cut The body was taken to the morgue and a coroner's jury impanneled and after many days investigation returned the ' following verdict: We, the jury in the above case, find that deceased came to his death at the hands of same person or persons un known to this jury, and from the evi dence we are satisfied in ur own minds that a murder has been com mitted on board the steamer Queen of the Pacific, between the hours of ten and twelve o'clock on the night of Sep tember 18, 1882, on the Willamette rivei, Oregon, as the steamer was close to her dock. From the evidence it appears that the deceased was a young man about 35 years of age, nnd when discovered had Borne thirty odd dollars and the purs er's check showing that he had paid his passage from San Francisco to Pert land on the Queen of the Pacific. There was evidence tending to prove that as the vessel was aearing ivs dock in Portland a body had been thrown overboard and there was blood stains on the side of the vessel. MEXICAN VETERANS. The annual reunion of tie National Association of the veterans of the Mexican war was held at Nashville, Tenn., on the 13th of Septembar last About 350 of the old soldiers, from all the States, but principally from . the South and West, met and were re ceived by an immense concourse of cit izens. The Vets, were given a barbe cue at the farm of Gen. Hardirig, near Nashville, where 600 ladies and gen tlemen were present After addresses by Gen. Morgan, U. S. Senator from Alabama, and others, they marched to the Capitol, where "Colonel Tom Clai borne delivered a stirring address. They afterwards called on Mrs. James K. Polk and were entertained for an hour The notable persons present were Gen; Morgan ef Alabama, Col. Savage and Gen. A. J. Caldwell of Tennessee,. Gens. Denver of Colorado, M. D.

Between the time Sheriff Lane took him supper on Sunday eeningand 2 o'clock a. m. follcwing, Le bu;ned a hole through the siJe of the jail large enough to get his hand in. If the stage had not started at such an early hour McGreg or and the Deputy Sheriff would have taken different routes. The Northern Pacific On last Tuesday the very important event of the connection of O. R. & N. Co's di vision with the Northern Pacific, took place at Multnomah falls, a distance of 213 miles fiora Portland, and was accompanied by appropriate ceremo nies. The addresses of Judge Deady and Hon. J. N. Dolph were especially good. This makes a continuous line of road from East Portland to Beaver creek, in Montana, a distance of 513 miles from Portland and opens a new era of prosperity for the State of Or egon. Accidext. Thomas J. Critezer while driving a team loaded with lum ber over the Grave creek hill, , was thrown from his wagon," the wheels of which passed over his right leg, breaking it below the knee in several places. . He, is present suffering se verely but no dangerous consequences are anticipated. 1 1 - - I - . . L I ... J - I . . . Railroad Notes. Mr. Chas. A. F. Morris, Chief Engineer, and Mr. B.-and', the Superintendent, made a tour of inspection to the end of the track this week. The rails are laid to a point forty miles from Roseburg and would have been for ten miles further, but for the want of lumber. Tbe track is ballasted for a distance of fifteen miles. , Ou yesterday tho sidetrack to the gravel pit hero was taken up and removed to Fhipps' place; at which point the gravel will hereafter be obtained.
