ROSEBDRG REVIEW
FRIDAY, MAY 7th, 1886. s
Spin. One of A. O. Rose's fine learns
took a run last Saturday evening, and came
near running into the store ol Chase and Ford
but was prevented by a tree standing in the
way. Not much damage, fully insured.
Sick. Mrs. Henry Byars of Salem who
has been visiting among us for a week or more
has been quite unwell, but we arc glad to
state that she is much better now. Mrs. By
ars has many friends here, the home of her
earlier years.
A Long Train. A long train or stock
ears came to Roseburg Tuesday evening last
drawn by two engines. These cars will take
cattle to Montana, purchased from our citizens
by a cattle firm that has been in our midst
lor some time.
"Too Good." Some arc saying that a par
ticular candidate on the Democratic ticket is
"too rood a man tor the office." Well, that Is
certainly one of the very best objections that
could be urged against a man, and ol course
will do him "good." "Too good a man to
to hold office," who ever heard of such a thing.
Bio Breeches. A gentleman from Hub
bard. Creek felt so large the other day, and ac
cordingly walked into one of the Rosebnrg
stores and bought a beautiful pair of breeches
corresponding to his feelings. When he went
home and "tried them on" they were about
twelve sues too large, and this destroyes the
old maxim "too big for his breeches."

story that she is to marry President Cleveland
As to the date, he says: "The only date

views on the prohibition question are extreme,

The Soiree. The Eastern Stars did shine
beautifully last Wednesday night. The music
both instrumental and vocal, was ol the most
classical kind. We have not the space to
particularize, and only feel that we must say
that "When the leaves begin to fall," as ren
tiercu ty Mrs. j. YV. bnort ot Wilbur was
never excelled in any of her pieces before a
Roseburg audience except possibly, when
she some eight or nine years ago sang "The
Beautiful Isles of the sea:", Mrs. S. C. Flint
deserves to be always remembered for her hard
and arduous labor in making the entertainment
such a success. The bands kindly gave us
some of the very best selections. All deserve
praise for the interest taken and the stars
will forever shed their mellow light upon all
the patronizing friends. Receipts about
$So.oo.
S i raws. "Staws show which way the
wind blows" and the Oregonian has this to say
of Multnomah Democracy. Taken through
out, the Democratic county ticket, nominated
on Saturday, need not be ashamed ol compar
ison of material with the Republican ticket
nominated a week earlier. Moreover, in not
being "a set-up job," it has a distinct advan
lage. 1 ne ticket was not made by a ring,
nr for ring purposes. Democrats say it will
get the entire Democratic vote of the county,
and probably it will. Particular men upon it
will be supported also by great numbers of
Republican independent voters, partly because
of their recognized fitness and partly as
means of administering a rebuke to that close
corporation known as the Republican ring of
ibis county. Therefore in making up their
county ami legislative tickets, great numbers
1 -f independent voters will exercise a careful
discrimination. In particular they will vote
against the most active and offensive of the
Republican ring tools and managers. Some
say they will vote the entire Democratic ticket
though the number of these probably will not
be large. But there are abundant signs that
the knife will be used freely against the ring
ticket. It should be used freely enough to re
tire the bosses from "practical politics."

Dr. Kuykendall has retired (rich) from the

always glad to know where a man is.
The "constantly tired-out" feeling, so often
experienced, is the result of impoverished
blood, causing enfeebled vitality. Ayer's Sar
saparilla enriches the blood, increases the ap-
patite, and promotes digestion. The system
thus invigorated, feels new strength and energy.

R. L. Shelly of Drain was in Roseburg this
week investigating his chances for sheriffalty of
Douglas county. If we did not have an old
pioneer veteran on our ticket lor the same
position, then of course Mr. Shelly might
stand some show. The people will always
appreciate an enterprising man like Ben. At;ec,
in preference to one who has been so recently
among ns.
Judge J. F. Watson and wife of Portland

we commend Mr. Boggs to the citizens of
Douglas county.
At a time when so vast a quantity of tea is

Tea coming in Perfection Tea Cans, all of
which are guaranteed pure and of fine quality,
he wishes to point out that "Sunbeam Tea

Indian War Veterans.
The regular annual meeting of Umpqua
Camp No. 6 of Indian War Veterans of the
North Pacific Coast met in accordance to order
duly made at the court house in Roseburg,
Oregon Monday May 3rd, 18S6. The meet

as. D. Burnett, L. F. Lane,
Captain. Acting Orderly Scrgh,
Jtutler Denounces the Boycott.
New York, May, 1. Gen. Ben. Butler
has this to say about the boycott: "It is ut
terly unjustifiable, and should not be adopted
by laboring men especially because it is the
weapon of capital, used by capital from time
beyond memory. That is to say, whoever in
all the world's history has stood forth as an
advocate of the rights of labor, whether in the
forum as a politician, in the legislative hall as a
statesman, in the courts as a lawyer, or in the
press as a journalist, has always been boycotted
by capitalists. Now when laborers, by legal
means and organization through the ballot-box
can control capital and make laws as the
laborer pleases, why resort to a partial, illegal
and always nnjust remedy such as boycotting
which is the miserable invention of an op-
pressed people who have no power to raise
their voice in making the laws which govern
them? Boycotting is a confession of weakness
not an exhibition of strength. It cannot be
dropped too soon. It is a two edged sword,
more dangerous in the hands of unskillfuf
wielders, to themselves than to others."
Only Half Alice.
There are hosts of men and women who, to
coin a phrase, are only half alive. That is to
say, they have seldom if ever any appetite, are
nervous, weak, fidgetty and troubled by num
bcrless small pains and aches. In the presence
of vigorous, exuberant vitality theysccni mere
pigmies. Such persons are usually fond of fre
quently dosing themselves, swallowing in the
course of the year enough drugs to stock any
apothecary's shop of averagedimensions. This
of course, defeats instead of furthering the end
in view, viz., the recovery of health and vigor,
Were they to seek it from an unfailing source
of vitality, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, how
umerent would te tneir case, men vigor
would return to their debilitated frames, the
glow of health to their wan cheeks, their tremb-
.ing uncertain gait would grow firm and elaS'
tic, appetite, that grandest of all sauces, would
give a relish for the daily food, were it ever
so coarse, and refreshing sleep would crown the
tasks ol the day,

Democratic State
Convention.
A Good Ticket Nominated.
The Democratic state ticket is a strong one.
There seems to be no good reason why the en
tire ticket should not be elected. Butler from
Polk for Congress, and Pennoyer from Multno
mah county for Governor is a strong head to
any ticket. With such men to lead success is
assured. Hon. Mr. Gibbons for Secretary of
State on the Democratic ticket will comedown
from eastern Oregon like an avalanche upon
our friend McBride. Mr. Gibbons is a man
well prepared to conduct the business belong
ing to that office. Hon. R. S. Strahan of Al
bany, than whom a better qualified jurist never
wore the ermine is to be our next Supreme
Judge. His opponent Judge Waldo is not his
equal much less his peer. Judge Strahan is
known to some extent personally in southern
Oregon, and we shall roll up a large vote for
him. ,
tme two leaders. .
The News lias this to say editorially of our
two leading standard bearers in the coming
conflict.
"The convention was well attended and
we proceedings harmonious, ihere was a
manifest determination to take advantage ol
what have been paraded as the mistakes of the
Republicans, to avoid all appearance , ol ring
dictation, either in platform or resolutions or
in the nomination of candidates. Great care,
therefore, was taken in the appointment ol
committees and managing the details of the
convention. There was a disposition on the
part of a few delegates to hurry things through
but they were promptly informed that there
was no occasion for haste, and that the busi
ness that brought them together must be trans
acted with deliberation and circumspection
The various committees were apjiointcd and
the convention adjourned until 7 o'clock in the
evening in order to give the committee on plat
form time to report. At the evening session
the platform was reported, discussed and adop
ted without much change.
The nomination of Sylvester Tennoyer on the
third ballot was no doubt the strongest the
convention could have made. It seems to be
conceded that the result in the State will be
determined by Multnomah county and there
is little question that Mr. Pennoyer will poll a
larger vote iri this county tlian any other candi
date who could have been named. On some
of the questions which have agitated public
opinion, the News has been in full accord with
Mr. Tcnnoyer, and it respects him highly as a
man of independent thought and action, and
one who has the courage of his convictions.
In addition, it is free to express the belief that
if he is elected Governor, he w ill administer
the affairs of the State in an honorable and ef
ficient manner, and to the entire satisfaction of
the people.
N . L. Butler, of Polk county, who was nom
inated for Congress by acclamation, is a lawyer
in Dallas, of the firm of Daly & Butler. His
nomination by acclamation shows that he will
have the united support of his party. He is
said to be a good -citizen and an able man, and
will probably come as near keeping Bingcr
Herman's majority within reasonable limits
as any other candidate who could have been
nominated .
Hon. G. W. Webb of -Union is a man of
excellent financial abilily and will conduct the
affairs of stale in a different manner from pre
vious mcumoents. ucorge Washington was
honest; and Mr. Webb is one namesake of
the father of this country who is in this respect
deserving of the "G. AV. 11 which introduces
his name . Mr. Webb has by his honesty and
business integrity won the highest esteem ol
all who know him.
For siale printer we have the name of
Charles Nickel of Jackson. He has the best
printing house in Southern Oregon, and can
do all the needed work at the most reasonable
prices. It is true that Th e Rev i ew has opin
ions of its own. yet in Mr. Nickels opinion
we "vaccillate" and our profession disquali
fies us from running a journal in the interests
of the party anil this has been "demonstrated"
so he says, therefore we arc at a loss to know
what to do in his case, until he shall suggest.

OVH COUSIT PLATFORM.
Whilst the resolutions passed by the Dem
ocratic County Convention do not contain
all that should be embodied in a state platform
they do contain many practical propositions
suitable to the wants of Douglas county and
on these wc commend them to every intelli
gent voter for careful consideration.
That a public office is a public trust is the
declaiation of a principle which should be
upheld by all good citizens in office and " out
of office lioth in state, nation and municipality.
The more general the principle becomes
recognized lha public officers are trustees of
express trust and directly accountable to the
people who elect them, the purer will become
the public service.. The more that candidates
for public office arc made to feel that the
office is intended for the public good instead
of jerquisites for tho successful candidate, the
better will the office be administered. Thi
stricter we hold our public servants to account
directly to " the people for their stewardship
and recognize in a faithful and honest public
official his fitness lor place and position and
visit our condemnation upon such as are der
elict in their duty, the less cause will we have
for complaint in public matters. The duties
of no office are so complex or difficult but
every intelligent voter may readily comprehend
its workings and the more general the people
become acquainted with officials actions the
lettcr will it be lor us all and the more eco
nomical will our affairs tic conducted.
So much inequality exists between capital
and labor that society is almost over-thrown
and the business of the country in chaotic con
tusion. This condition of affairs is attribu
table in a measure to vicious legislation in the
interest of organized capital which has grown
opulent from the sweat of the toiling millions.
That legislation is demanded upon this labor
question is attested by the numerous strikes
which the strong arm of the law is called up
on to control. If a just equality was main
tained between the workman and his employ
cr there would le no occasion for military or
martial interference in a free Republic in times
of ieacc, and the voter who is unwilling to
favor legislation which will secure to the hired
laborer his earnings is unworthy the privileges
of citizenship.
The trickster who will attempt to maintain
by sophistry the jernicious practice of hiring
out the convict lalxr of the state at a price lie-
low the cost of guarding and maintaining the
prisoners, deserves no consideration at your
hands. When viewed in the light of truth
and intelligence no conscientious voter can
maintain the practice of placing the labor ol
these cemvicts in competition with the products
of honest workmen and mechanics, that con
tractors and speculators may make a profit at
the expense of the state.'
The public lands off right lclong to the
people and the pernicious principle of granting
them by the wholesale to corporations for
speculations should forever cease.. The lione
fldc homestead and pre-emption settler must
be protected, and should be encouraged to
lay deep his hearth-stone and erect the home
roof on a solid foundation that his children's
children may call him blessed and the country
rejoice in their patriotism.
The evil of the Chinese scourge is upon us
we tli2 people of the Pacific coast feci it more
keenly than any other section of the country
we -have a right to and do demand wise and
prompt action on this question. Honest
laborers and mechanics should not be forced
into competition with these serfs who can and
do live upon garbage and cheap food which is
neither palatable or sufficient to sustain the
white laliorcrs. They are not of our people
and do not affiliate with us and self preser
vation demands that they should lie removed
1 from. our land. That the wealth which they
are sending from our shores to China be turned
nto legitimate channels and that the gold
they send away may remain with us and be
used by our own laborers to build and decorate
the homes of our own people.
The Democratic party is essentially a party
of the people and for the people and works
for the good of society and whenever occasion
demands a change in the organic laws is equal
to all emergencies. We have spoken in favor
of submitting the pending constitutional
amendment to prohibit the liquor traffic to a
vote of the people of the state. Further than
this the most ardent agitator cannot go; noth
ing beyond this can be demanded al this time.

BURT. Miss Abigail T. Burt was born
near Greenfield 111., but spent most of her life
in Wisconsin. In 1853 her father moved with
his family to Oregon and in 1854 settled on
Deer Creek near Roseburg where she taught
her first family school in the family ol Samuel
Harkncss. In the fall of 1855 ghc entered the
Wilbur Academy which she attended for two
years. Alter her return she taught in the fam
ily of Leonard Bucll and from that lime she has
taught in families and districts through Doug
las, Jackson, Josephine and Linn counties,
From her earliest childhood she was remark-
aoie lor ner singularly sweet and winning
manners, nearly always cheerful and hopeful;
even the same after she found-that the stroke
of paralysis which she received in her eleventh
year had doomed her ever afterward to depend
on crutches every step she took. Universally
beloved by old and young, she gratefully re
membered and treasured up the many offer
ings of love she so often received, and near
her last moments said "say good bye to all
my friends. Most of her life an humble but
faithful follower of Christ, she seemed anxious
at the last to give her dying testimony; she
said she wanted the whole world to know
that she "had lived for Christ, that he was all
in all to her. Oh, how she longed to go
and be with him, and join the lovetf ones
who had passed on before. For many weary
nights and days the patient sufferer waited for
the summons, but said she was willing to wait
she knew thai God meant all her sufferings for
her good. April 22nd, 1SS6 the weary
weight of suffering was laid aside and the
freed spirit gone beyond caiths shadows.
