ent term of the Circuit court, to resign the
position he has honored for the past several
years, and his resignation- has already been
forwarded to Governor Moody. C. W.
Kahler, who was once a candidate before the
people for the position, cannot be prevailed
upon to accept it now, and a petition in fa
vor of X. 11. Webster, of this place, is in cir
culation. The appointment lasts until next
June, when an election te fill the unexpired
term of Judge Hanna, running two yeais,
takes place.
About eight o'clock Monday morning as L.
McGregor and a young man were crossing
Deer creek bridge with a two-horse wagon
and team, one of the swingletrees broke,
which scared the team and it started to run
up Jackson Btreet. The tongue of the wagon
came out of the neckyoke and run under a
cross walk and into the ground witn such
force that it stopped the wagon and threw
McGregor out. The horses got loose and
made a lively run of it up Jackson street and
down Main street, when they turned back
up Jackson street to the meat market, where
they were stopped. But little damage was
done. McGregor received some bruises
which made him limp and some street posts
were knocked down.
No intelligent reader can fail to be inter,
ested in the contents of the North American
Review for December. The question of the
telegraph has the place of honor in the num
ber, Gardiner G. Hubbard pointing out the
great advantages that would result from the
proposed government control of the tele
graph, and showing from the experience of
several European countries the benefits to be
derived from the incorporation of - the tele
eraphic with the postal service. Professor
J. Laurence Laughlin, of Harvard Univers
ity, shows the "Evils of the Sub-Treaury
System," in its absorbing and withholding
from circulation the specie that is constantly
needed to insure stability iu the world 6f
finance. "The Day of Judgment," by Gail
Hamilton, is a caustic review of the less
amiable moral traits of Thomas Carlyle.
Henry George writes of "Overproduction,'
an idea which he declares to be preposterous
unless more wealth is produced than is
wanted. Gen.- W. B. Franklin sets forth
the views of naval and military experts as to
what is absolutely needed in the way organ
ization, forts, ships and war material, to in
sure the "National Defense." An article on
"Railroad and Public Time' by Professor
Leonard Waldo, of tne lale Uoliege observ
atory, explains the system of uniform time
standards now being introduced into the rail
road service of the United States. Finally,
there is a discussion of the question of
"Morality without Religion," by F. A. Kid
der and Prof. A. A. Hodge, of 1'nnceton
college. Published at 30 Lafayette place,

people of Roseburg, Thanksgiving was
observed on Thursday. t ; o
Union services were held in the
Presbyterian church at 11 o'clock A. M.
An excellent an. eloquent sermon was
preached by Rev, J. W. Craig, of the
M. E. Church South. Turkey dinners
were freely indulged in at the hotels and
families throughout the city. Though
we canuot boast of turkey at this office,
the printers, editor, and devil all seem
to have been neglected in this general
rejoicing, but then we can boast of an
absence of the unpleasant nightmares
which attended many, of our fellow
citizens.
