' ew Arrangements. We have madear-
rangemnts for 1886 to give the New York
World and tho Review to all subscribers the
same as for 18S5. Three dollars in advance
secure both papers for one year. 1S86 will be
a great political year in this country.
Please Stop Talking. When will young
men and women learn that it is bad manners
to talk in Church. We are requested to say
that if it is presisted in, some of the dudes and
dudeses will be brought before the public to
be gazed upon as nondescripts in this part of
Oregon.

the recurrence of our Saviour's natal day a
happy one, one that the children will remem
ber when they have grown old and gray. Come
ladies, we always expect you to take the lead
and wo will follow even to the ends of the
earth.
Fish. Certainly our people in Roscburg
and hereabouts ought to be satisfied on the
piscatorial line, when they can go out any day
and catch salmon, salmon trout, trout, sea
bass, some of the latter weighing over one
hundred pounds, succors, and all kinds offish
that float in our western waters. This after
all, is quite a. fish country. Nearly every
stream at this time of the year is teeming with
the finny tribes.
Shooting. Newt Yocum and a young
man by the name of Briggs, son of our old
county surveyor, were in the saloon in Can
yonvillc playing cards the 27th, when a dis
pute arose, and both made for their revolvers
and Bricgs trot his first, and fired, striking
Yocum in the neck and the ball lodging there.
Young Briggs was arraigned, and acquitted
on the ground of self-defence. N. Yocum at
this writing is likely to recover. These are
the facts as reported to us.
To The Sick. The attention of the reader
is respectively called to the advertisement in
another column of Dr. Louis Turner, St.
Louis, Mo. Dr, Turner has had an experi
ence of over thirty years in private and hos
pital practice in the city of St. Louis, and
stands at the head of the profession in the
treatment of all chronic diseases. lie respect
fully solicits all cases of surgery requiring great
skill, and can furnish rooms and lOard to all
patients wishing to visit St. Louis and be
treated. The Doctor makes a specialty of
treatment by mail of all chronic diseases. A
full consultation can be had by mail for one
dollar. No exorbitant charges made. Terms
of treatment very reasonable. Address all
letters to Dr. Louis Turner, 819 Washing
ton avc., St. Louis, Mo. ;
Recognition. The Columbia River Con
ference was held in The Dalles last Wed
nesday and the Oregonian in speaking of the
forthcoming session, has this to say of our
townsman, Hon. L. F. Lane.
"While .we cannot be blind to the obstacles
in the way of any great and immediate move
ment on the part of the government for our
relief in this matter of the Columbia river,
still we do not look upon the scheme as a
hopeless one. The government is slow, but
it is sure, and in the end the rivor will be a
fiee and open highway. This much, happily
Is beyond reasonable doubt; but we fear it is
a consummation farther ahead than many
seem ho think. A .good beginning has been
made at the Cascades, where another million
of dollars will open a steam boat passage
which will afford relief to a large population
lelween the Cascades and The Dalles and far
inland on both sides of the river. It should
not be forgotten in apportioning the credit for
what has already been done that the first sue
cessful mover in this river enterprise was the
Hon. Lafayette Lane. He it was who pro
posed in Congress and secured the first appro
priation for the cascades, and while many
others are entitled to credit for good service
in this matter, he it is to whom the thanks of
the country are mainly xlue for setting the work
in motion at the beginntng.

higher plain of life. They have no desire to

the surrounding country, have organized a
literary society for their mutual benefit in as
sisting and preparing them for their future
Vocation.
Mr. Horace Deardorff, President; Mr. Ben
Bradley, Vice President; Miss Rosa Bradley,
Secretary. The program consisted of recita
tions, dialogues, readings and singing. The
singing was good, and the recitations' all we
could expect and the order was excellent, two
much praise cannot be said of the order of
this school. It illustrates the advantage of a
correct system combining in its discipline mu
tual love and harmony between the teacher
and pupils. : The exercises reflect credit on
the young ladies and gentlemen participating.
Quite a number of Trof. Russells pupils were
present who were cordially invited to return
and witness the second meeting of the society.
This school is becoming quite popular in our
community, and wc expect to hear, with such
an able educator at their head, of great achiev-
ments in climbing the ladder of learning.
About 40 names appear on roll, and the Prof.
informs us that he has had fifteen applicants
for scats the next quarter beginning Dec. 7th.

J03'. L. F. M OS HEM'S REPLY.
Editor Review: In the issue of last week
"A Democrat" seems very much surprised,
that a life-long Democrat should be at a rati
fication meeting with Republican officehold
crs upon the occasion of the election of Mitch
ell to the United States Senate and quite as
much so that you should give it your endorse
ment. He closes by saying that whatever
you and the Judge may think upon this sub
ject, he is opposed to such a policy. You,
Mr. Editor, have given and'are still able to
give the reasons for your course, but as the
article seems to call for an explanation from
the "Judge" he will take this opportunity of
giving one. C
The writer of the article evidently belongs
to that class of Bourlon Democrats who are
disposed to pose as martyrs for their principles
with a view to future favors from the people or
the present administration and who imagine th;1
principles consist in following the usages in
stead of the tenets of the Democratic fathers.
I am not able to see that any principle was
involved either in the Democratic members
voting or abstaining from voting for the Re
publican candidates, it was simply a matter of
policy and as such I was compelled to ap
prove the course of those Democrats who
voted for Mr. Mitchell. I understand that
this was also the view of the question taken
by those Democrats, in caucus who did not
vote in that direction. '
The Legislature was largely Republican in
both branches. At the regular session, Mr.
Ilirsch, a gentleman of ability and untarnished
reputation received a majority of the republi
can votes but could not be elected either be
cause he was honest or because he was a He
brew. The Democrats took no part in the
election and the legislature adjourned with
out a choice. Here was an opportunity for
"Ring" management which was not neglected.
A thorough canvass was made, old difficulties
were harmonized and when it was deemed
certain by the Portland ring that their candi
date would be elected, the special session was
determined upon. Gov, Moody whose chief
ability consists in obeyiug the orders of the
ring and the corporations they represent, with
all haste issued the proclamation. But one
greater outrage has ever been pcrpretrated
upon the people of Oregon. The Legislature
at its regular session having failed to elect a
senator, common honesty demanded that the
question be submitted to the people at the
next general election, they being the only ar
biters in such cases.
The special session met and it was soon
apparent that tho Democrats would not be
able to prevent an election as they had done
as the regular session, that the election of
George II. Williams was the "purpose of the
session and a foregone conclusion. There
were many reasons why this candidate was
peculiarly obnoxious to the Democrats of Ore
gon, lie was a renegade, who translered his
allegiance to the Republican party for the
patronage of those great corporations who are
at present controlling not only the commerce
but the labor of the people of the Pacific
coast. By his election we surrendered our
selves without benefit of clergy to those cor
porations of which Senator Dolph is now the
able reprcscjitaiive There was a still stronger
reason why both Democrats and Rc'pufelicans
desired to prevent his election, and that wa:
because his reputation was smirched.
It is not necessary to prefer specific charges
it is sufficient to say that the Senate of the
United States with twelve Republican major
ity refused to confirm his nomination for Chief
Justice of the Suprwc Court, although it was
made by President Grant. If he was unfit,
to be a meml)er of the Supreme Bench he was
certainly unfit for a senator. It is also within
my recollection that Williams whilst once a
pro slavery Democrat in Oregon, and who
out-IIcrotled Herod on this subject, since
his apostasy and election to the United States
Senate argued that a state eould not get out
of the Union and after an honorable surrender
upon magnanimous terms, argued that no Sou
thern state could come into the Unionjsave by
re-admission through the infamous re-construction
laws whereof he claims the paternity.
In this emergency the name of John II.
Mitchell was presented by the Republicans.
He had been our senator and although a Re
publican he has never been guil ty of the here
sy of Williams, but on tho contrary has always
acknowledged the rights and dignity of the
states of the Union. It was also to his credit
that he does not belon g to that class of Re
publicans led byenator Sherman, who desire
to keep live Ufe animosities of the late war
as a mearlfejst electing the next President.
Your correspondent takes occasion to say
that Senator Mitchell will not keep his pledges.
I think this reflection is unjust, as well as un
called for and not worthy of a Democrat.
I know of no pledges having been made to
the 1 )emocrats, nor have I any reason to be
lieve that any were made by Senator Mitchell
to secure his election. But I will say that
knowing that Mr. Mitchell was in strict ac
cord with the States-right Democrats upon
the fundamental questions that underlie our
government, the Democratic memlers of the
Legislature adopted a wise policy in securing
his election. L. F. Mosher.

Missoula M. T., Nov. 29. The first spec
ial tea train bound east and the west lound
exprees freight No. 13 collided between
Turah and Wallace, fifteen : miles east of
Missoula Friday morning at 6 o'clock, wreck-,
ing the engines and six cars of , each train.
The killed and injured are Michael liech, en
gineer of the freight, crushed and scalded,
dying in five hours: Alvin S. Moffatt, fireman
of the freight, instantly killed; Thomas Devine
head brakeman of the tea train, instantly killed;
William A. Andrews, tramp, instantly killed;
Norman Rice, fireman ot the tea train, leg
badly crushed, died this morning; Frank
Bohncrt, head brakeman of the freight, - left
foot amputated; Fitzgerald, a tramp, pelvis
bone broken and internal injuries; J. B. Waite,
engineer of the tea train, jumped and escaped
with slight injures. Both trains were running
at a high rate of speed, and met on a curve so
that they came together with immense force, '
completely demolishing the engine and a half
a dozen cars. The tea train had the right of
way and was going east ou passenger, time.
The freight train received orders at Bear Mouth
to meet the tea train at Turah, but the night -operator
at Wallac received notice to bold both
trains for orders and he displayed the usual
signal, a green light. The freight train ran by
however without stopping and the collision
occured four miles below.
J. B. Waite engineer who . jumped and
saved his life, as related above, is a Douglas
county man, and the son of Mr. W'aite of
Round Prarie, and his brothers are well kuown
in this county. We know that the relatives
must feel a great relief to hear that he escaped
with his life, though a narrow one it was. Mr.
Waite telegraphed his folks here that he was
safe. ' '

It was generally rumored that the Democrats
would go to Mitchell and secure his election,
so when Senator Siglin led out with remarks
justifying his course in 1882, . very few were
surprised. ' . " ; ;
A number in changing their votes gave their"
reasons in well chosen remarks, ' and after th!
result was announced by Pres. Waldo, Mitch

which he did in an able and eloquent manner,

and others.
The number of hangers on, members of the
