From Drain. Mr. J. A. Underhill has
leen nominated Justice of the Fcace on the
Democratic ticket for Pass Creek. A wise
nomination; every voter should sec that Mr.
Underbill's name is on his ticket. Lets have
a squire in Drain that we can find when
wanted.
I. O. O. F. Ceiebration. The memlcrs
of I'hilctcrian Lodge at this place are doing all
in their power to make the forthcoming ecle
bralion of their natal day in America a grand
success. This is a noble order, and is doing
much to alleviate the distressed and is spend
ing millions for tliis purpose.
A I'.iktiiimy Sukprisf. On last Friday
evening several of our young people including
the Junior ISrass Band surprised Mrs. Belle
Horner with a surprise of about fifteen dollars
worth of presents. The evening was spent in
a way enjpyablc to all; and at an early hour
all repaired to their respective homes.

of Newton, Kansas, relatives of G. W. Wona
coii havo come lo Oregon to stay and arc now
occupying the Champagne house opposite the
Catholic Church. They came to Douglas be
cause they read The Review of Jan. Sth, and

not an exaggerated one.

The Laundry Queen, being sold by George
Muncy, and can say it is the best and only

The Ro;ur River Bridge. The con
tract for building the bridge across Rogue
River at Grant's Tass was let last week to Mr.
Rates for $6464.00, leaving a balance of
$.5436.00 to be returned to the state Treasury
as the state appropriated $10,000.00 for that
purpose, and can be used for nothing else.
Sec Oregon's laws, page 41, section I, "Fx.
tra session" Nov. 1885.
Successful Surgical Operation. A
skillful and successful operation was performed
on Mr. James II. Reane, of Myrtle Creek, for
varicose aneurism, by Dr. Graham of this city
assisted by Drs. Hoover and Cathcy. The
enlarged arteries and veins occupied the entire
palmer space extending to the fore arm which
were very much enlarged. This trouble com
menced six years ago, and has continued to
increase in size and lately became' the source
ol great pain and considerable distress. We
understand that Mr. Beane is doing well.
Dissolution. The dissolution notice of
the firm of S. Marks & Co., W. I. Fried
lander retiring, will be seen in this issue. We
shall regret very much if Mr. Fnedlander and
family should leave our city and hope that he
will remain among us. The old firm consist
ing of Samuel and Ashcr Marks, will continue
lo conduct the business however in the future
as in the past, upon the principle to live and
let live- This Ls certainly the strongest firm in
the county and will therefore be regreted the
more.
Roseiiurg Reform Club. Dr. U. A.
Cathey of Canyonville addressed a large audi
ence in the club room Tuesday evening, who
listened very attentively to his remarks; the
Doctor showed himself to be fully alive to the
enormous amount pf evil perpetuated upon
our people by the! liquor traffic but still clings
fondly to the forlorn hope that moral suasion
will accomplish tho desired result, with time a
necessary element!. Mr. Ezra S. Fowler of
Oakland Cal. followed with a short address,
his remarks were rxrintcd with logical illustra
tions that commanded the best attention of the
house. The programme was good and con
sisted of songs, readings, tablcaus, recitations,
dialogues, and instrumental music. Hon.W.

Eayle I'tihit ileitis-
I have been silent for a long lime, and now
lake my pencil in hand to inform you that
you must stop my paper! yes, for you are
making such a success of it that my wife reads
it as soon as it comes and neglects her work
and when I want her to do a little job forme,
she says wait until I finish reading this article
and read it she must if I have to do without
my dinner. I don't know as you have her en
gaged to act as agent for your paper, but I
have heard her tell the neighbors that The
Review was woith more thau all the papers
together, that were published in this county.
Wrc have hail one of the most pleasant win
ters out here thai could be immagined, only
tfeink of a winter in this latitude with mercury
always above zero and so little frost that gera
niums, oleanders and such plants can be left
out most of the time with no damage from the
frosts. But with all our pleasant winter there
has been considerable loss of stock on ac
count of the lack of rain last fall to start the
grass, so that the stock started into the winter
poor.
Almost everybody i. through fanning except
plowing for corn, and the present indications I
are that wc will have an abundant harvest this I
year.
Bro. Roberts preached here a shoit time
ago to a good audiancc but the conduct of
some of the youngsters was such as to disturb
the preacher i as well as the congregation
whereupon he gave them a severe reprimand.
Since my last we have organized our Prohi
bition Club, elected A. C. Hoi welt Pres. and
A. J. Flory as Sec. The Prohibitionists in
this county held their convention in Medford
on the 2jinst. and nominated a full ticket and
eight delegates to attend the State convention.
We have but little hopes of electing the entire
ticket, as the Republicans and Democrats of
this county are to closely aided with the whis
key power that they will unite to defeat any
that will work against thecurse of intemperance.
This last item brings to my mind a poem I
saw in the Union Signal that I will cut out
and send with the request that you publish it
jn your valuable paper.
G. W. Catchinir of Canvonville hn 1
litre visiting relatives and while here had a
birth-day dinner with Mr. Ilowlett, on the l6lh
of last month, each of them celebrating their
54th birth-day, and he decided that it was the
best dinner he had ever eaten in Oregon, and
one would think so, fat turkey, ham and eggs
etc., but why try to describe a dinner tliat
Mrs. II would prepare, and I assure you
that "Lip" enjoyed it as well as anybody
could as it was the first turkey he had ever eaten
in Oregon, aid all present expressed the wish
that Bro. Bell could be here and enjoy the
dinner with us.
Mrs. Uno has seen what I have written and
she says you must not stop the paper.

DIED.
VANDYKE. Mrs. W. S. Vandyke of Garden Bot
tom died Wednesday night of consumption, aged
about 23 years. She leaves a husband and two little
children to mourn her untimely death.
POETRY AT THE REFORM CLUB.
You would scare expect a man like me
Who smokes cigars and drinks whiskee
To stand npon a temperance stage
And speak in this enlighened age.
Great crimes from little drinking grow
And cancer from the smoking flow
The widows groans. The orphans teais
Are caused by drinking whiskee and beer.
And fellow citizens you will see
A reformer I have come to be
And right here I'll let you know
That the rum power must go.

cumng the many useful ways of this life.

the fact in a humorous strain, which I!ro.
Howard quickly turned upon the ithcr by say

much difference between us." This brought
down the house.
That was an amusing incident when, Mr.

Owens said something as follows: "Mr.
Owens must not speak for the Christians, he
may speak for the politicians, but I propose
to speak for the followers of the (Lord Jesus
Christ." Flem saw the point.
Judge Tarker presided with nvich dignity
and ability and his stentorian vo ce brought
down the house when an extra delegate to the
state convention was nominated hd said,

It was altogether a very digniticjl assembly;

evidently some present who were after the

contributing to secure a full attendance, was
thai strong efforts had been made to have every
Democrat in the precinct registered, and many
in attendance at the primary came to town for
the purpose of registering not having heard of
the action of the Supreme Court declaring the
registry act void. The meeting was called to
order by Hon. Justice Wade. On motion of
John Cowan Sr. Dr. Thomas Mackey .was
elected Chairman and J. Shade Dungan Sec.
After reciting in a suitable preamble what was
deemed good and sufficient reasons for holding
the precinct Primary on the 5th instead of the
6th as indicated by the Central Committee,
a resolution was . adopted to proceed with
election of delegates to attend the Democratic
