P. W. I. FrIEDLAXDKR, Sc"' Why l-'Lirdi Applegate, talking with a preacher upon the Bildt on one occa sion Injcame skeptical, and said he did not b dieve the story about the whale swallowing Jonah. . The minister sug-sr-s'e I that it Wi.s a miracle. Where upon the General lemaiked that it would have been a damn sight more of une if a sardine had swallowed him. Thit reminds us of the Blaine scandal. Republican journals praise his alacrity In suing the 'Indianajtolis Sentinel, and t'le i state that both Mr. and Mrs. Claine were expecting this i-tory and Mere prepared for it.. Why, then, would not Blaine have shown greater alacrity, ly suing in ad a nee of publi cation. ! It might have been regarded rare statesmanlike prescience, but after all, an antiseptic is better than a cure. Smith, of New York. We had a pleasant call Saturday last, from Francis S. Rinith, of the New York V i-kly. Mi. Smith is making a rapid tour of the Paid Lie Coast, accompanied by his daughter. lie rrports enjoying the trip, scenery and climate immensely. As this was a good opportunity to lind o it from a representative man he po litical situation in New York, we in terviewed Mr. Smith on the subject a id learned that while he is an ardent II 'publican and supporter of Blaine, ii vernor Cleveland will carry New York, by a majority of at least 50,000.

One foot and leg was drawn iiuo the cylinder, and so badly injured that he died in about five hours afterwards. Defrauding Indians. United States District Attorney Watson has otntnenced action eu the part of the government ag-iinst Jesse Waters, a rancher of Klamath county, who has this Slimmer pastured 300 head of cattle upon the Klamath Indian reser vation and defrauded the Indians bv refusing to pay them a rental of $1 per head of stock to which thoy are en titled. Oregonian. New Hotel. Humor lias it that Marks & Co., and F. P. Hogan are to throw their adjoining lots on the cor ners of Main, Washington and Jack son streets together, and build a large trick hotel. Such an enterprise would be a credit to the town and would cer tiinly pay, as Roseburg is bound to boom. Broke Jail.

Prtaine is a friend to the laboring man, else why is it that such hard-working labor ing men as Gould, Field and Vaiiderbilt aie o enthusiastic for him, each of whom have contributed a cool hundred thousand to the corruption fuuJ to secure his election? The fare from Portland to San Francisco by way of the Oijegon and California railroad, is now 32, and the staging has been re duced to thirty-jmie hours, making it a very desirable route at this season of the year, as the mountain Scenery is grand, and the weather pleasant. W hile General Grant was rich he was a stalwart of the stalwarts, and always acted with aud for the Republican paity. It is now reported that since he lost his fortune on Wall street,! he has come back to the Democratic fold and is actually supporting Cleveland and Hendricks. Great riches do often turn men's minds. Mr L. Belfils desires that all persons knowing themsUyes to lie indebted to him, make immediate payment, at his jewelry store, the middle door ou the north side of Washington street, lietween Jackson ard Main streets. jHis demand is imt eritive, as his losses by the late tire make it absolutely necessary that he should have what money is coming to him to meet his immediate wants. The DeMoss entertainment is the only public exhibition we have been favored with siuce the fire, j The hall was poorly seated, and the hooJium element showed a disposi tion to crop out among3t some of the young and rising generation, who will have to re form their maimers before they need ever expect to occupy seats in the Legislature, much less on jthe floor of Congress. Thj DeMoss family are genuine musicians, and the entertainment was all it promised to be. Obituary. On Thursday, July 17th, 1881, John Collard Cannon, one of our esteemed and respected citizens, died at the resi dence of his son, Ira S. Cannon, of bronchitis. "Uncle Johnnv" as he was familiarly called, was born in Lin coln county, "Missouri." He emigrated to Marion county, Oregon, in the year j 1853, and the following year to Douglas count', of the s tmV State. In 1S39 he moved to Big Val ley, Lassen countyi where he resided until last Mav, when his health began to dechno, he moved to the residence of Lis son where he died. He leaves three sons, Ira S. and Mahlon, of this county, and Rich ard L., cf Douglas county, Oregon, to iiiourndiisloss. When crossing the plains, in 1853, to seek his fortune w.iih ethers in this western country, his beloved compan ion and little babe, Mary Susan, feii to the reaper, Death. and left four little boys, I he youngest but three, and a long journey with witich to light life's ' attics. The rides; son Isaac S., died in. Oregon. Mr. Cannon kept 'nil his children with him until they were grown, gave them a fair education, and always tried to impress ou their minds the dominant , principles, honesty and CI4 -- l-rutfnluc-ss. Uncle Johnny lies co-eternity. A j vacant chair is di'ap :.! with the habili ments of woe? A kind and afJectionate father, an honest and upright eitien pu:s:-;.s without a niuiniur or struggle aerons the mystic river. Though h: walked around the house and door-yard on the very day of his death, the sands of life wore growing; oerc-ntibl v slower and slower, until half-past two o'clock, when the exclamation was heard, "lie i.5 gone; lather is dead." Thus finished the career of a good man a philan thropist, if we have one a tv.&i with out an cnemy,a citizen whose untimhly end has wrought condolence and deep grief over the entire neighborhood. The fl:f in Lookout was hung at half mast, work suspended, business houses '.dosed, and all sadly and slowly marched to the cemetery to see the linal obsequies of John Collard Can non. Pjace be to his ashes. Moun tain Tribune. Lbn't Ba fooled. We notice a poster that is placed in conspicuous places by the railroad com pany which reads -as follows: "The buids cf the O. & C. 11. It. Co., south of llor.eburg may by entered upon by actual settlers for the purpose of settle, ment or improvement, upon the condi tion that they will purchase the same upon the regvdau, terms of sale, and at prices to be fixed by the company. Im provements msde by settlers will not be taken into consideration when prices are made." Y a consider theabn-c a high-Handed outrage. The tieatuient received by the settlers in East ern Washington Territory and the celebrated Mussel Blouh case in Cali fornia, should teach our citizens to be wary of railroad promises. We do not bnlievo that a single settlement w ill be made on the terms olFeivd above but what will rob the settler of years of hard earnings. The railroad is to place the price on the land; the railioad is not to charge for improvements. Oh, no! Let everybody get right in and make impiovements worth 1000 on 100 land and the railroad will only charge yen $100 for it, when they could get 1100 for you being a damned fool. Hoop la ! Hurrah for Ulaine, Logan and the railroads Fon richness of biographical material St. John, of the prohibitionists, lead.s all the rest. He ran away from his father in Indiana at the age oi twelve; was a husband at nineteen and a wid ower at twenty; became one of the rough -and-tumble pioneers of Califor nia go'd-diggers, and once lan bare footed over ice and frozen ground for two davs with an anxiou3 party of In dians after him; started for South America and was wrecked without clothes or:, coin among the Sandwich Islands; turned upas a country lawyer in H'inois; served in the army through the war arid got the rank c-t colonel, and finally "struck it" in the rum politics of Kansas. Twenty thousand Republican bolted m Kansas endorsing Glvek for re-elect-ion for Governor, which will insure his .re-election. The prohibitiohists are enthusiastic for St. John, aud the contest in the State for the Presidency is limited to St. John and Cleveland, the Republicans hopelessly splitting the anti-prohibitionists endorsing the Democrats, and the prohibitionist element endors:iii St. John. The Catholic Watchman, in speak ing of the Cleveland scandal, regarding Maria llalpin, remembers Eliza Pinks ston, and s;ivs : ''Tho" Republican party is the party of blood j slirts and soiled petticoats." Is Mr. Jeffreys chairman of the Democratic Central Comui.Htee or simply a mugwump ? Oakland Items. Sunshine and showers. Watermelons and peaches. The electrician doctors departed as quietly as they came, with no harm done. . .. It i3 rumored that"" Oakland is to have another business house soon. We hope not.

Dr. Ilerbold, our cnergetib dertist, contemplates a tour over the country for the bo:elit of those unable to visit him at his ollice. Witev Pilkington was severelv in" jured last Saturday by a kick from a wild horse, while shoeing, but is still able to attend t ) Ids many customers. Geo. T. Russell, principal of Oak laud academy, has been quite ill this week, but at present is recovering, and we hope will be able to meet his pupils at the usual time and place, Monday next, A bad accident occurred near Wil -bur, Tuesday afternoon. While young Edwin Reed was working with a thresh ing machine, was accidentally caught by tire derrick fork and thrown back wards into the "cylinder, his left limb being torn off at' the knee joint uud the fleshy part of the limb above the knee. His relatives and friends did all in their power to ease the pain, while Dr. E. J. Page was summoned from Oak land. The doctor arrived in time to choke the hemorrhage, but to no avail; reaction not. having occurred, spasms set in and the young man quietly passed away, after the third spasm. Friends in this community offer their warmest sympathies to the bereaved parents and relatives. Sam. Quiet limes. The threshing season will soon be at an end. A number of drummers have been worry ing our merchants the last few days. A disciple 'of Blackstone has located in our midst. Evildoers look out for breakers. The complexion of Oaklaad ha3 changed lately and things are not what they used to be. Mrs. ITotchkiss, of Rosebnrg gave ns a call on Wednesday, locking after business interests. ; The musical entertainment of the DeMoss family was a complete success, aud was? at tended by a large number of appreciative people, who were all well pleased. The Rosebud saloon is becoming a very popular and conspicuous place, aud Ls freely advertised in our midst. The thirst of the weary may be quenched at any time, and refreshments may be had night and day. A little altercation was indulged in at the brewoiy last wek by two of our prominent citizens, but the mill was not according to the Queensbury rn'ea. It is said that the cause of the i :,uon was occasioned by an over- indulgencein an ertra quality of beer manufacture: at the brewery. A number of our pleasure-seekers who embarked foi the coast some time since, are still wandering, and their whereabouts is not known. It is said that their traveling accommodations were very defective, and they were compelled to camp and send a party to the settlement to secure a convey ance which would carry them through. We are anxiously awaiting their return. Now thht the summer season is about to pass in its checks and give up the manage ment of things to autumn we think it neces sary to say something about the matrimonial mirket, which will undoubtedly be in full blast in a short time. The future prospects were never better in the history of this town, lor already bids are being made and no doubt will tie accepted without question. There .re a number of bidders who are very anxious to unite in the holy bonds and who have cheek enough to press their suit with out any regard to etiquette. X. X. X. Myrtle Creek.

On the 23d, Corbett's squadron opened tire on the citv of Foo Chow,and after three hours' bombardment, destroyed the ar senal. Seven. Chinese gunboats were sunk, and two escaped. It was not a fight, but a terrible massacre of the natives by the French, j This lesson will bring the Flowery Kingdom to terms. The .indications are that Xhe differences of the two countries will be settled bv arbitration through the inter" vention of Bismarck. Germany has openly insulted the British lion. The Germans have 'de termined .'.to break down the monopoly of England in colonization in Africa, and other parts of the world also. It is r ported that on Wednesday of last week a Geiman corvette hauled down the British flag on the African toast. That the extraordinary stiv.igtli of Germany's position is shown in the fact that while the Berlin press teems with insult, journalists mi London are tame, almost to sneckishness in their replies, "while all Germany expresses delight with the proceedings. The English papers express the hope that the insult to the English flag was not an insult at a!l,or at least, such an in sult as one power can explain away, aii'l another accept a simple apology for.
