School meetings held all over the county and state last Monday, n many places that we hear from good liberal work was done- Notably Oakland where the the two schools consolidated. This was emi. nently proper in order to secure a good first class public school. Accidental: While Hon. W. H .Byars was harnessing up his horse at his residence in this city, yesterday afternoon, the horse knocked him against the wall at the stable and badly bruised the back of his head, caus ing concussion of the brain, and rendering him unconscious. At last reports he was thought to be out of danger, Statesman. School Meetinu. The annual school meeting came off last Monday. Considerable interest was manifested in the question of vot ing a tax for a school house. J' R. N. Bell was elected director for three years to succeed himself, T. Ford succeeds himself for clerk for one year. A $20,000 school house was voted by more than two to one. We hope that a brighter day is dawning for fhe interests of Roseburg in an educational line. Rail Road. Will Q. Browne an active and energetic gentleman was in Roseburg this week asking our citizens to ask Congress to extend the time to the O. & C. R. R. two years ' in which to complete the gap between Ashland and Delta. We are in favor of giv ing the O. & C. R. R. the land to which they are entitled if they-shall finish the road at once or within the specified time as above. Other wise it ought to go to the people as public domain. 1 A Tramt. Last Saturday a tramp was caught in J. R. ! N". Belfs barn, the tramp having entered a cabin out of town, and the proprietor being absent, he, the tramp, pulled oft his old shoes, and appropriated a pair of good boots. The cabin proprietor returned and soon "caught on" and came in hot pur suit, and with a few to help him took the boots from the tramp leaving him bare footed, and the tramp seemed most indignant because this cabin ' man had not brought his shoes along. -. i Proposition. We make an offer to our friends and foes alike (if we have any of the lat ter) to- take The Review for six months for $1.25 the regular price for six months being $1.50 or $2.50 for one year. This is the cam paign year and you will want to know what is going on, and we flatter ourselves that The Review will corneas near giving you all the news as any country newspaper you will find in this section. Send your names and post office address at once, and bring or send the money when you get ready. Oakland Reform Club: After singing bythe choir, the audience was led in prayer by Mrs. F. T. Teel. Hon. D. V. Stearns speaker of the evening commenced his remarks by giving a short history of the State Alliance at Eugene. This is Mr. Stearns's first at tempt at making a public Speech of this kind and well might it be said that it was a success. . He spoke for about an hour holding his audiance firmly to the point.

Sutherlin was chosen speaker for the next meeting, C. T. ChExoweth. Sec. " Wyandottes. Last week there was held in Portland a poultry show, where over three hundred thorough bred fowls were on exhibi tion .

" 1st on Brown Leghorn pullet. 1st on pair Rose comb -Brown Leghorn. They had a' good show, lasting four days and we think every one feels that justice was done, The Wyandottes were the most attractive fea ture of the fair. All admired them and took numerous orders for eggs. Send orders for eggs at once. Order through The Review office or direct to Mr. Garrison, Forest Grove, Oregon 4 . Roseburg Reform Club. The meeting last Tuesday evening was as usual well at tended and a very good programme was pro vided. Meeting was called to- order by the new president, Col. John Lane, with V.

Why don't the young people here rustle around and organize a literary society. There is enough local tallent to support j one, and make it profitable and entertaining.!

The last meeting of the Adelphian Society last Friday evening at the Court house was a splendid success. How happy we were made to feel to see our children on the high road to good morals and a proper education. How kindly those children spoke of each other as some of them vere about to part. O vain man be not misla!.en, the prop er education and training of oar children is the only safeguard of American liberty. An edu cated, moral peop'.e without a dollar of sur plus, is far superior to a people wkh wealth and affluence and to a great degree destitute of both morals and a good education. Boys and girls of the public school of Roseburg you have done well. Teachers we feel indebted to you for the tramingyouhavegivenour children.

Chadwick was visitijig friends and relations in our city this week. Jolinie Winniford returned from Washing ton Territory a few days since bringing with him them ness. his charming young bride. I We" wish a long life full of unalloyed happi P. B. Bcckley, Esq., shipped a car load of the finest beef cattle, to Portland, oh last Fri day, that have ever been shipped from this town. Hon. C. B. Wilcox and Prof. R. A. Booth were in town last week. Glad ti see you gentlemen. Hon. D. A. Stearns addressed the reform club last Friday night. His subjet l was well treated. Revs. Moses and Richard did sonic of their best preaching for us on last Sabbati. A. G. Young and his sister, Mrs. G. J. Stearns, went to Portland, Monday. Mrs. Stearns goes to visit her larg; circle of friends and Geary to purchase his sprint stock of goods, which is to be very extensive and well selected. j J. W. Stearns returned from Walla Walla last Monday night. s Miss Maggie Beckly, of Elkli n, was in town last week, on a visit to her cousins Misses Caddie and Maggie Beckly. Jrts. Dearling and A. F. Brown were elected school directors of school district No. I, on last Monday. ' - Miss Whitmore, of San Francisc ), is in our city, a guest of Miss Clara Young. J. R. Dodge, E. G. Young1, Richard Thomas and IV. Page were in Roseburg, this week, attending Probate CourtS. Mrs. Evvc Henderson is visiting; her many friends at llarrisburg. E. G. Younc & Co. are havinir the office occupied by Dr. DcVore moved ov :r near the drug store, of Page & Dimmick and wil' erect a building where the Dr.'s office was located, to be occupied by J. II. Shujje, Wells Fargo & Co.'s efficient agentl Jas. Batty and Mrs. Rilla Ohmart were married on Tuesday evening, Judge Wilson officiating. On Wednesday manir of their host of friends called upon the happy pair, extending to them their heartiest tongratula tions. May peace, happiness and prosperity be yours. A small child of Mr. Woodruff' i, of Coles Valley, cut off the fore finger of it; left hand with an ax on Tuesday. The child was brought to Dr. Tagc for such treatment as may be necessary. The annual examinations at Oakland Acad emy extended over Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of last weej;. It is a matter of regret that they arc so little attended by the town's people, however those present showed themselves thoroughly appreciative. Perhaps the most interesting days were Thursday and Friday, when the competitive classes were examined. The class in hygienic physiology showed a fine record. Hon. D. W. Stearns, in a neat speech, pres( nted Alex. Patterson with the valuable" prize offered by E. J. Page, M. D., to the one Uho should best stand the test of examination in that branch. Where all did so well j it was no small task to decide upon. In the" class in English grammar, James Undcrwojod was the recipient of the prize offered by Rev. E. T. Lockard lor the best in that clasL Charles Medley carried off the prize in arithmetic, offered, by Prof. Russell, after I long and closely contested labor at -the blackboard. Everything gave evidence of thoughtful work during the entire term. Surely such tri umphs teacher and pupil may well be proud, nor is it a loss to those who labored and still fell shor of the offered prize, for are they not so much the more strong and rich in mind from having thus labored. On tlie wall was also exhibited some fine oil paintings, executed during the winter by Miss Barnard, which are a credit not only to herself but her teacher, The primary department was examined on Thursday. The regular attendance has ex cceded fifty pupils. We are convinced that none bnt an experienced teacher could have maintained such enthusiasm and progress as has been shown here during the entire year. On the roll of honor we find the following names as not having been absent or tardy during the term: Maud Beckly, Carrie Heart sock, Jessie Ohmart, May Stearns, Fannie Clements, Blanche Dearling, Harry Dearling, Fred Pilkington, John Pilkington.j It was a pleasure to be present jit the exer cises of the Thilomathian Society bf Oakland Academy on Saturday night, teb. 27th. When we rememl)cr that the players were not professionals, nor even amateurs, but school boys and girls, we were surprised to see how well they , sustained their!- respective parts. The song of greeting by j little Dora Page was sung in a winning, artless manner, as only such little fairies can siiig. Little Mabel Sutherland sang one of her exquisite songs to the delight of her hearers. Miss Lillian Russell sang "Starlight Musings" in her unaffected way, so pleasing td her friends. We think the chorus or "Rainyj Days" was particularly good, all parts being so well sus tained. The charades, "Checkmate" and "Misfortune," contained some taking charac ters, admirably sustained. The drama "Mov ing Under Difficulties," shows We have real talent in our midst. C. Chenoielh was by turns, brave as a soldier, generoud as a friend and excruciating as a lover. Geo. Kruse showed himself "valorous in lov and war." The Mier and the Veteran of iS2 did finely antt tne young ladies, Misses Minnie Ma- hor.ey, Mary Baker and Ollic Shbrtride were excellent, in their roles. For Lurselves we were glad of the oportunity of paying the small admittance fee after having enjoyed their meetings during the past fajl and winter for nothing. May the Philomathians long flourish and may we still be there! to see. AtTHEA. Oak Oroee Items, Weather fine, and farmers improving their time. ; There is a chance fur a goo; the Grove.

The meat was well I dont know jerked I guess. Mr. Kilpatrick and Mr. Cole who came out from Iowa about a year ago, started on their return to that state with their families a few days ago. R. E. Porter. A Letter From Seattle, Editor Review: Some people have an idea that this is a wet city. We are ui.dei martial law. You arc an old soldier and know that martial law means oneman'slaw. Gen. John Gibbon is the one man in our case. He has not ruled us very severely but he gave us prohibition for about two weeks and Seattleites can answer the question "does prohibition pro-' hibit?" with a thundering "yes!" The saloons were all closed and we were forced to fall back on such thin drinks as tea, coffee and butter milk nolens volens. We were both dead and dry and that is a little worse than Whatcom is at present. The funniest of all human beings is a man, unless we except a .woman. His quirks, cranks, follies, inconsistances and spasms af ford a field f study for the philosopher and a fund of amusement for the humorist. We have a law which, if obeyed would close the saloons on Sundays. But everybody knows the saloons are open, that is their back doors, every Sunday. Our anti-Chinese agitators became suddenly alarmed as to the health of the city and a committee, seized with a spasm could not wait for Monday, but started out Sunday morning to see if the ordinance pre scribing a certain number of cubic feet of air for the Chinamen was enforced. Of course this move was only an excuse and the com mencement of the illegal expulsion of the Chinamen which ended in riot and bloodshed. Those terrible two or three hundred unem ployed Chinamen threatened to ruin the city. But the fifty or more dram-shops open seven days in a week, stealing the bodies and souls of the laboring white man, O, they were un noticed. How we do strain at a gnat and swallow a saw mill. You are pointing to the sign found in all well regulated newspaper offices, "we want news, not sermons." Speaking of Whatcom recalls the fact that a large number of former residents of Canyonville are now in that young city. The Stenger family are there and John is still connected with the mill property. The hard times press him as well as all other busi ness men. Real estate in this whole sound re gion is not held as high as it was three years ago, but moneyed men have faith in its future especially since it is evident, mob law is not going to rule. Fred Shultz was here last week, he will return soon with a band of horses to sell. He talks of buying a mill at Chehali, the present home of Mrs. Nancy Thomas and her daughter Amanda. D. Satonstall, the jolly tinner, who used td keep up such a racket in Canyonville talks of moving to Chehalis. The only mistake former residents of Doug las county made in moving north was that they did not all come to this city the queen city of the sound. Half of the Patchen family are here now and the other half will follow soon as they can sell out their interests in Whatcom, M. H. Carpenter. Xlee mil Item. Grain and stock looks well in this vicinity M. Stewart & Co. is thinking of starting a toll bridge, Press Rice was thrown from la horse and badly hurt. Mrs. Centers has killed two coyotes. She is a hunter. Mr. and Mrs. Marsh have settled on Cavinr creek. We wish the young couple much joy.

J. is the man that will succeed if he starts. Nut Shell. I'kttieiamt I I arc Found out That a contaminating and foieign element in the blood, developed by indigestion, is the cause of rheumatism. This settles upon the sensative sub-culaneone covering of the mus cles and ligaments of the joints, causing con stant and shifting pain, and aggregating as a calcareous, chalky deposit which produces stiffness and distortion of the joints." No fact, which experience has demonstrated in regard to Hostetter's Stomach Bit, ers, has stronger evidence to support than this, namely, that this medicine of comprehensive uses checks the formidable and atrocious disease, nor is it less positively established that it is preferable to the poisons often used to arrest it, since the medicine contains only salutary ingredients. It is also a signal remedy for malarial fevers, constipation, dyspepsia, kidney and bladder ailments, debility and other disorders. See that you get the genuine. J How to Deal with Diarrhcea.
