He was formerly of Seattb, where he was street contractor. He speaks very encouragingly j of the future of Benton and its pet railroad. Mr. Alexander McCurdy has opened a fine saloon in the building heretofore occupied by F. P. Hogan as a store. He intends to render comfort unto bis patrons and there fore solicits investigation, j We call attention to the advertisement of Messrs. Campbell and Walsh, as real estate ageuts. - Although but just started in busi ness, they have much valuable property to offer to the enquiring purchaser. The third quarterly meeting of the Rese burg circuit M. E. church south, will be held in this city, commencing on Saturday, the 10th of May, and continuing over the Sab bath. The presiding elderj E. G. Michael, will be present.' j John Cowan of Smith river, was in town this week, a delegate from the Gardiner con clave, Pete Nelson and our trusted friend Dungen,. at the head of the same. Mr. Cowan passed his 57th birthday with us, and we wish he may see many, many more. Mrs. A. R. Flint died at Portland, Friday, the 2d inst., aged about CS years. She was a lady of most estimable character and was deeply loved by many friends in Roseburg. It is with regret we say good-bye - until the final consummation of Ged's good word. The Salem Statesman reports a state of "general good feeling" among the Republi cans of Marion county, with a little varia tion. Variation is good and although not quoted from our cotemporary, it is neverthe less expressive of the true state of the situ ation. Vindicator. I . t .l The Umpqua hose company of Roseburg held their usual meeting last Friday and there was a full attendance, j An amendment was adopted increasing membership to 25, and thereupon Walter Wheeler was elected a member. Let the company remember that at the next regular meeting officers will be elected. j The Catholic Sentinel of May 1st contained an article, seemingly well authenticated stating that reference to the parish register of Brownsville Pennsylvania, would prove that James G. Blaine was baptised a Catho lic and that he is now a steadfast b .liever in that religious faith. The stalwarts of Marion county are subju gated, dethroned and downtrodden by the eighteeners. The scepter has been wrenched from their grasp and they j bid fair to soon become an extinct race, to be remembered only in song and tradition, like the cliff dwellers of New Mexico. The salmon canneries of the Columbia river have now fairly commenced the sea son's work of packing, the boats being now nearly all out. Nothing was done during April, because of a light run of fish, while expenses would bo as heavy as when fish are plenty. The Oregonian remarks that "Cap'es could not beat geography." That is true, but when the people of a State prfr "geogra phy" rather than an able man to represent them in congress, times may be justly re garded as somewhat degenerate. East Tort. Vindicator. Congress has, after long protracted delay, allowed the claim of F. G. Schwatka Sr. of Salem, of $6000 for the land on which Fort Stevens stands, which was taken from him by the government in 1854. Mr. Schwatka is the oldest Odd Fellow in Oregon. He is far advanced in years and recently bad both feet amputated. He is the father of Lieut. Schwatka, the explorer. Elder J. W. Webb, the Good Templar grand lecturer, is malting quite a stir in re gard to temperance, having organized a lodge of 40 members at Elkton, and arranged for one at Oakland. He has spoken at various places and will lecture and preach at Myrtle Creek on Saturday and Sunday and at Can yonville Sunday night. j On last Saturday night a cow belonging to Henry Landers haJ a calf. ! Mr. Landers on Sunday morning, seeing the enormous size of the young animal, concluded to weigh it. It tipped the beam at 115 pounds, and this be fore it was 24 hours old. It is of the Dur ham stock.

It will prove of benefit to all who feel an interest in nature's medi cine: ' - Sax Francisco, April 22, 1884. . Gio. W. Jones, Esq. Your favor of the 15th inst just to hand. The medical gentlemen at Roseburg, or rather, those who have expressed their polite opinion as to the fraud ulency of my report on the Eldo rado water, have been at great pains to express their sublime ignorance of. ele mentary chemistry, in what they say respecting iodine. I really could hot have believed that any graduate in medicine could possi bly be so astoundingly ignorant. Had they taken the trouble to look in'o any text-book on chemistry they would have found something to the following effect: Iodine is found in nature in combination with metals, forming io dides, which occur in both the organic and inorganic (or mineral) kingdoms, having been detected in sea-water, sea plants and animals, and in many min eral springs. Iodine has also been found, in " small quantities, in Chili saltpetre, and, on this coast, in combi nation with silver; in Jead ores, also in dolomitic limestone, and in every deposit of roek-salt It has even been found in coal. It occurs in a few land and fiesh-water plants, and in many sea aaimals, as sponges and oysters; also in cod-liver oil. Both iodine and bromine, as iodides and bromides, are conrtituents ot the leading mineral springs of Europe. Among those may be mentioned the celebrated waters of Kreutznach, Dierkheim, Krankenheil, Adelheids, Quelle, Challes, in Savoy, and Castio Cav, in Italy. The celebrated Wood hall Spa, in England, contains as much as .35 grains of Iodide of potassium per pint of water, which is equivalent to a little over a quarter of a giain of iodine. There are several springs in the east ern States known to contain iodine. Prof. Kogers of Philadelphia, states, in reporting on a mineral water from Monroe county, Pennsylvania: "It ha3 been very minutely analysed and is the first of all of the waters in which I was enabled to detect traces of io dine, which it contains in larger amounts ihan the old spring, and, in deed, than most of the ether water in which I have been so fortunate as t discsver thU material. The presence f a larger quantity of iodine in this spring points it out as a superior ageftt in many affections for which iodine is successfully employed." There are several springs in Califor nia containing iodine, many of which I have myself analysed. I will only mention here the celebrated springs of Paso Robles. I think I have said eneugh in sup port ot my assertion that iodine does occur in the mineral world, the emi nent and .learned medicos of Roseburg to the conL-ary not-with-standing. Thoma.8 Price, M. D. Drowned. Tuesday evening Josoph Champaign, his wife and daughter, were returning from Roseburg to their home in French settlement. They attempted to 'cross the south Uropqua river at what is known as Conn's ford, some fire miles Welow Roseburg. The river had swol len from the melting snow in the mountains. When well out in the stream the current caught the wagon and turned it on its side, throwing all the parties into the river. Mr. Cham paign held to the lines and the team brought him and the wagon out on the island on the side of the river where they had started into the stream. The young lady got hold of a box and man aged to keep herself afloat until she got ashore, by catching hold of some wil lows, a half mile below the foid. Mrs. Champaign was drowned and the body remained in the water until about noon Thursday, when it was found in deep water, about a mile below the ford, where the accident occurred. Mrs. Champaign was a ladj well known in the country and had a large circle of acquaintances and friends. The entire .community is shocked and grieved at this sad accident Tombstones for Sale. I desire to call the attention of all persons desiring Jo purchase tombstones that I have a select assortment of dressed marble, which I will sell on reasonable terms. Haying disposed of the shop lately occupied by my deceased husband, I have stored the entire stock at the Floed warehouse, near the rail road station, whereu tfcg suyb examined at any time. Persons desir ing to purchase can consult me at nay residence, west from the depot, or J. C. Fullerton, at the land office in Rose burg, Oregon. In case of purchase the lettering ill be done by William Staiger, of Salem. Mrs. R. Brack exridge.

Williams has returned from Portland looking the better for his trip. W. W. Cathcart of Cottage Groye, paid js a pleasant call during the week. ; Our dramatic troupe has advertised to give a performance on Friday. The play is entitled. "Down by the Sea," and we beepeak a fine rendition. Quite a number ef our leading citizens were called to Roseburg on Tuesdays to at tend the Democratic convention, and we hope they will be wise and nominate solid and substantial men fop office. As far as we have heard up to the time of writing, the nominatioas will give satisfaction in this section. ' "Doc" Hill received a severe injury on Tuesday, by being kicked by a vicious horse. Dr. Harris was called and adminis tered the proper remedies and reports the patient doing well. Dr. J. C. Rhambrook will soon take his departure for San Francisco, where he will attend the Cooper medical college. Thg Doctor desires a rest from his extensive prac tice, and in taking the rest desired proposes to take a course in medicine. Dr. Harris will represent him in professional work and attend to the wants of his many patients. XXX. Amoxg the many excellent gentle men who wereeia attendence upen the Democratic county convention, we were specially glad to meet our old friend JEtoii, E, JZEurcMu, Ic w&a pleasant to aee the greeting between Judge Arrington and him. They are both Id typos and there is no disguis ing the fact that they are both gentle men of the old school. There is no difference between a Republican mugwump and a Demo cratic gwigswag. The W. H- Harris Hew SLows! The exhibition of W. H. Harris' nickel plate circus and menagerie, which took place in this city last Saturday, was well attended, the large canvass tent being crowded both in the afternoon and at night. Mr. Harris well deserved the liberal patronage which was accorded to him by the citizens of this place and tke surrounding country. The show, or the greater part of it, wintered here, and this being the grand opening for the season was no doubt gratifying to the the proprietor. The entertainment was in many respects the best we have witnessed for many years, some of the performers hav. ing made , rapid impro veinent since they closed at this place last falL Miss Daisy Behnont and Master Frank Harris in partic ular, have obtained proficiency in bareback riding. Miss Daisy will soon equal if not excel l Mollie Brown's- most daring feats. The Hea'y brothers are the greatest contor tionists in existence; their equals have never been seen on this coast and wo doubt if they have ever been excelled. The Irwin broth ers are as fine tumblers and cross bar ar tists as can be found in America. John Barry is a fine bareback Htler, and Mr. and Mrs. Belmont's daring feats on the trapeze is worth the entire admission fee. 'Mons. Joseph is unexcelled as a juggler, his many clever tricks, in which the hand deceives the eye, is a wonder ta the ftuinitiated. Harry Geine, who has been with us all winter, with his trick horse Senator, forms one ef the grand attractions of the ring. The entire troupe, by their gentlemanly and ladylike bearing, won the esteem of our entire com munity. We have no hesitancy in recom mending Mr. Harris' circus as worthy of public patronage, whilst the animals con nected with the menagerie cannot help but to amuse and please the children. It is thus that the Oregonian of the first, in the moment of great enthusi asm, at the instant of ardor ond ner vous excitement, refer3 to the Republi can ticket: . "The candidate for congress selected by the convention, is a man of fair ability and good character. He has long been a resident of southern Oregon, where his life has been fully identified with the activities and interests of the country. There was a general desire to take the candidate for congress this time from some part of the State re mote from Portland. Multnomah county could not dispute the fairness of this, though her delegation voted for Mr. C .pies. Mr. Hermann will have the united support of the Republicans of the State. Of the nomination for supreme judge it cannot justly be said that the convention selected from the names presented tlie man whom the people generally regard as best fitted by natural ability and legal attainments for t'ae position;, and this being strictly a non-political office, and a very re sporsible one, reputation for ability and legal attainments ought to have had weight in. deciding the nomination, Mr. Flinn is, however, a man of excel lent character and undoubted integrity; but it is questionable judgment to pit him against so well known and so able a man as Governor Thayer. It is just to Mr. Hill to say that the nomination was net solicited by him, that he did no 'work" whatever among the del gates, and is in no sense hurt or disap pointed because he did not receive the honor. Wbt we say of the matter is simply born of the conviction that a convention in making nominations for positions which! require a certain kind of fitness and known ability ought to select for those ! positions men whose reputation is highest for the peculiar kind of fitness and ability required " If that is as much as Mr. Hermann's best friend can say of, about er for him, then should he say: "The pomp and glory ef thia world, I hate thee," and the more so because I cannot obtain thee. As for Flinn it is too, too bad and let him exclaim: - "Oh for a rest in some vast wilderness." Louisville April 29-special"J-The republican primaries last n'ght all broke up in violent disorder. The revo't against Arthur and the machine was terrific and several district meetings were changed into free fights. A number of men were shot and a num ber injured. The anti Arthur republi cans outnumbered I the revenue people three to one, but the office-holders refused to submit, and in all the districts two tickets have been elected. We call atUntiou to the announce ment of the Democratic candidates, in which they advise the people as to the time and places they desire to interview them personally, individually and in the aggregate. Do not forget the meet ing at the court house next Monday evening. Treasurer's Notice. All persons holding county warrants, endorsed pri or to Jan. 31, 1884, are hereby noti fied to present theni at the County i Treasurer's office, iu the court house in Roseburg, - on or before April 1 9, 1884, as interest will cease from that date. W. N. Moore, County Treasurer. A Card. Having closed out my store and retired from ; the mercantile business, I have placed the settlement of my a flairs in the hands of Hon A r Campbell. All erson indetbejl to me are requested to settle- with him and make immediate pavment and all persons whom I am owing are re quested to present their accounts to jim for settlement, i b. b. iloed Miscellaneous Items- We took occasion to interview Rose burg this week and gladly; say it is prosperous and progressing. Mr. Got sell's new building is fast approaching completion. Champagne's addition will soon e finished. Mr. II. C Slocnm is erecting a large two story house upon his lot immediately south of tl brick store of Abraham, Wheeler ii Co. Mr. Hogan is making improvements on the premisss upon which is located his bus iness establishment John . Johnson will soon complete his fine residence. George Beath elevated our fire bell to call the department to duty. Alec Mc Curdy has opened a saloon in Mr. Ho gan's former store. Tke Democratic convention adjourned after making a good ticket and the world moves on just as it should. Thz Good Templars will, give a sup per at their hall next Tuesday evening. The contest between company A and B was closed by a compromise, and all members are invited to attend and par. take of a good supper. The committee on invitation consists of W. F. Owens, H. S. Strange, Mrs. A. Jener, Mrs. W. F. Owens, Miss Lillie Moore and Miss Lucy Hsy. J esse Applegate the sage of Yoncalla was a delegate from Douglas cbunty to the late republican state convention. Hisnamo is inseperal-'y 'inked with the early history of Oregon. There are in the state archives at Salem, two letters dated in the year 1844, during the joint occupancy of Oregon by the United States and Great Brittain. One is from Jesse Applegate to Thos II Benton, then U. S. senator from Missouri and the other Bauton's reply. That correspondence made the great senator Oregon's steadfast friend and secured his mighty influence in fixing the boundary line separating British Columnbia from what was then Oregon territorv. The Episcopal bishop of this diocese, accompanied by the new pabtor for this city, Rev. Octavius Parker, will visit Roseburg on the 15th inst., and hold services at the chuich in the evening of that day. Notice to the Public.
