ROSEBURG REVIEW FRIDAY, MAY 28th, 1886. House to Rent. Any person desiring to rent a house, call at once on Henry Easton. Horse Pasture Charley Stephens has good pasture one half mile from town at one dollar and a half per month. Call at once on C. M. Stephens. Pkohi's. Hokse. That prohi's. horc that trotted over the bridge goes slower when he (rots than when he walks, hence he did not violate the law, because the notices read "faster than a walk," and yet this same prohi. is trying to trade that horse off, but the trade i:; off now. Comment Unnecessary. A gentleman ; who went into a grocery store in this city was a:;kcd by the storekeeicr why he did' not buy some canned peaches, the gentleman replied that he could not afford such luxuries, when the storekeeper said "we formerly sold these at 35 cents per can but now we get our goods from San Francisco via Oregon Pacific Kail road and the cheap freights enables us to sell the same cans for 25 cents." On' Two Tickets. We learn that Mr. Uriitof Wilbur is running on two tickets, the I'rohibitioh and Republican.. We presume he lecls able to stand on two platforms at once diametrically opposed to each other. What gjnv?tr'.cal figure, or trigonometrical angle, would dcscriljc .this stale of things? Please answer. However Wm. Thicl is just the man fur our next county surveyor. Calves. -The farmers and cattle men should mark up their calves, and not allow them to run at large unattended to. Much complaint is made on this score because of t such neglect. All ought to keep their young cattle in good' shape, and improve the slock (let good cattle, and let the day of scrubs pass. One of the largest and most careful cattle men in this county deplores such a slate o; things. Improve is the word. 1 oration. To-morrow, Saturday, com inittccs from Reno Tost G. A. R. and the IJoseburg public school will unite in the work of decorating Slocuin's Hall for the Gram Army exercises that will take place next Mon day ind for the school exercises that will take place on the Thursday night following. Great preparations are being made that both occa Mons may meet the expectations of all who can attend. Gai.a Day. Last Saturday was a big day i!t Canyonville. The little folks, big folks, young men and maidens were happy as could be, good shaking (one exception,) the best singing we have heard, good dinner, good time, :;oou leeiing, all orougnt about ly Having a Sunday school picnic. Wc absolutely have not room or we should specialize. Canyonville 1- ahead at present. We close by saying, the takers' stand broke down, when it was full f men, women and organ. Big scare, nobody- hurt. je Consistent. Aspirants and their friends, who have been disappointed and have any hopes for the future, should le careful how they talk about voting against their successful competitors. It's a long lane lhal has no turn. There is a future, and it is a very improvident man who does not look oui for it. The right way for such person to do is to submit gracefully, as they would ex pect others to do (in case they were candidates) and pull off (heir coats and go to work for the party. There is a future, gentleman, and mem ory is nn aw ful stubborn thing, sometimes. Times. The abov.c is true to a letter, and Douglas county has proven this beyond a question. . RosEiii'KG Reform Club. Rev. W. A. Smick occupied the rostrum at the Reform club last Tuesday night, his subject "Reform" lie handled in such a manner that made it in teresting to all, following the downward course of those who were led away by intern" pcrancc, through the different stages, first love of association, tippling, loss of will power until, finally the victim becomes an object of pity, utterly degraded, he exhorted all to turn w bile there was yet time. Rev. J. W. Miller gaca short address of good cheer to the Prohibitionists. Mr. J. W. Mullen in a neat speech presented some interesting matter and Mr: G. W. Kimball spoke tor a short time Mjiuewhat antagonizing his predecessors. A good entertainment is promised for next Tues day evening. W. Alexander, Secretary- The Rettlican Rally. Quite a large crowd turned out to the Republican rally last Friday evening to listen to the nominee's re marks oh the issues of the day. The Y. D. Hand was in attendance and discoursed some veiy fine music. Mr. Cornelius was the first to take the stand, which, by the way was on McClallen House porch, and in a few re marks reviewed his past career as well as what he intended to do if he ever got to be Governor. Mr. C. is a farmer, and therefore, is not a very fluent talker. He was followed by McUridc, nominee for Secretay of State wlio spoVe at sone length. Mr. McBride is a very good speaker. He in turn was followed by Mr. If. L. Marsten, nominee for State Treascrcr. Only one of the speakers made any illusion to the all important question of the day, prohibition. This question seems to be ignored by the leaders of both tickets, a neither Pennoyer or Cornelius alluded to it in 'any shape whatever. Ten Mile Picnic Last Saturday morn ing a stranger in our town would have thougth that something 'lnusual was going to take place from the moving to and fro of vehicles loaded w ith gaily dressed and happy looking iiuliviudals, and horsemen riding up and down street s preparatory to starting off some where, and on inquiry would have been told that it was another Prolubition blowout, this time at Ten Mile. Quite a large number of our citizens availed themselves of the opportunity to go and spend a day in the country, arriving on the grounds at Ten Mile church they found an other large crowd, inhabitants of the surround ing country, awaiting them. They enjoyed a n.ost pleasant lime and a very good pro gramme too. Speaking occupied the greater lortion of the day, and in the evening, "Little Brow n Jug" and other pieces were played to a very appreciative audience, after which a great many repaired to the hall of Wm. Wells, and enjoyed a most happy time. Ail Enterprising, Reliable House. A. C. Marslers can always be relied upon, not only to carry In stock the best of every thing, but to secure the Agency for such artic les as have well-known merit, and are popu lar with the people, thereby sustaining the reputation of being always enterprising, and ever reliable.

Shame on you. Baldness may be avoided by the use of Hall s Hair Renewer, which prevents the fall ing out of the hair, and stimulates it to renewed growth and luxuriance. !

Strahan to the Supreme bench, says the New Northwest will give us a Judge whose decisions will com bine law, justice and practical common sense instead of the pedantic ; scholasticism and un just technicalities which have too often illum ined Judge Waldo's judicial efforts.

Wild strawberries have been ripe for some time here. We have been having very nice weather here lately. The mud between here and Coos Bay is drying up fast, so we here. Plenty of fish in Rock Creek now, or at any rate some of the boys seem to think so. It seems there are more than a few who take The Review in Sugar Pine lately.

Review: In your last issue you made some comments on a card which appealed the week before in the Plaindealer lrom Mr. Col vig in which he disclaimed any ownership or interest in a saloon in Douglas county or else where. Unintentionally perhaps you did Mr. C. an injustice in accusing him of rushing into print to prove that he is a temperance man. The facts are that there was a report in circu lation in Roseburg and vicinity that he was in terested in a saloon. Of this Mr. Editor you are well aware. One of his friends wrote him that this report was calculated and intended to do him injury and that he had better deny it over his own signature. He did so simply that and nothing more. Mr. Col vigV reputa tion as a temperance man is too welt known to necessitate his publishing the fact to the world. Republican. : Roseburg, May 25th, 1886.

He was born in Dublin, Ireland, in 1816 and had reached thealotted time of three score years "and ten, when called to cross the last river He came to America when three years of age and resided .in the state of Ohio until he reached his majority. He was among the early pioneers who came to Oregon to make a home and settled on what is known as the Missouri bottom where he resided at the time of hR death. tie joined the I. O. O. F. at Canyonville in 1 807 and was a charter member of Myrtle lodge which was organized in Myrtle Creek in 1872. He was hurried with the rites of this order on Wednesday the 26th at the cemetery in Myrtle Creek. The remains were followed to their last resting place by a laree concourse of his neighbors and friends the funeral being tne largest ever witnessed in this portion of our county, Mr. Weaver had been suffering for some time with the fatal disease although he was able to go about until almost the very last and died in the full possession of his faculties and m me oiessed hope of an immortality. He leaves a widow and a large family of sons and daughters aud numerous grand -children. By frugality and industry Mr. Weaver amassed a competency of this worlds goods which he leaves to benefit his family. He was a good and an exemplary husband His place will be missed by his neighbors and wusioi au oy nts family, and especially his wife who has shared his joys and sorrows for so many years. We tender ourympathy and condolence to the family who mourn the loss of a patriarciat father and husband Dawning Light. One of the vantage grounds the Democratic party to-day occupies, both as it regards the state and county ticket, consists in the irreproachable character of the men it lias brought forward as candidates. Their fitness. ability and uncompromising fidelity to princi ples 01 economy, and the best interests of the whole people, has lifted them to the highest attainable position in the confidence of the electors. I predict an unprecedented change in uie popular vote of Oregon at the coming election. The party's triumph is insured, and means that equal and exact justice will be done to all, no wrongs go unredressed and no oppression be practiced. The Republican party has been on trial for the last several years, in the Administrative, Tudical and Legislative departments of the slate, its course has been closely watched by the public, its acts have been placed in the balance and carefully weighed. The verdict has been reached and will be announced the ?th day ol June. It will read something like this, "Dis missed lrom the public service for high crimes and misdemeanors, specifications too numer ous to mention.' A careful estimate of tbp ote ot this, and Scoltsburg precinct indicates a majority of fifty for the Democrats. Certain individuals on the Democratic county ticket w ill run far ahead of these figures. The dual candidate on both opposition legislative tickets residing at Scottsburg is in a fix, its the old saw "111 be damned if I do, and I'll be damned if I don't." It is generally conceded however that he wishes he was the other man. Two horses, both sore-backed, ring-boned, and spavined. Well, who wouldn't be look ing for the other fellow. The day is dawning. the people of Oregon are awakening. The cry is ringing out, the Democracy of the state are armored and ready for the contest that is to bring to the.ni unparalleled victory. Gardiner, Or. Invisible Green. Gardiner Items. Spring fights have begun. Several drummer passed through town lately. Henry Wade and wife have returned from their trip to the city. Mr. and Miss Wells from near Elkton are on a visit to our little burg. A tug came in Thursday and took out the schooner, Laura Matson, Friday. Miss Ella Cowan has been spending the week in Gardiner visiting Mrs. Hansen. Mrs. McKenzie arrived home a few days ago accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Fuller ton. The mill is now running fourteen hours, be cause lumber is scarce and a vessel is waiting to be loaded. Mr. Black and family have departed; he going as far as Elkton, and she to her parents in Washington Ty. The captain of the Laura Matson tripped on board of the lashing plank and in trying to recover himself nearly broke his ankle. Mr. Robert Ashworth brought two rafts to town lately; and we think he must be engaged in quite an extensive business, for it was a whole week before he returned home. It is a good thing that young Delegate went to Roseburg for it gave "Lookout" in the Plaindealer something to write about. l'oung Delegate wants him to understand that he had better "look a leetle out" or he will be liable lo get himself into trouble. Zephyr. Second Judicial District . .me ucmocrauc state convention nomi ! t" a 1 -, 1 f". .. nated for the Second Judical District HON. JOHN BURNETT. or Judge. Judge Burnett is pcisonally known lo a large portion of the people of Lane county. He is honeit, energetic and competent For over thirty years he has resided in Benton county, and he bears a name that cannot be successully assailed. At different times he has held the offices of- Circuit Judge, County udge, Representative and Senator. If he should be elected to this office he will fill it with credit to the state and to himself. For Prosecuting Attorney the convention named JAS. W. HAMILTON. ot uouglas county. 1 his was a rcnomination that was well earned by hard and meritorious service. He was first elected to the District Attorney-ship in 1880, and was re-elected in 1884 by a rousing majority, although the District was Republican by several hundred majority. The people de not want to try another experiment in filling that office, and we are reliably informed that if they do it will be a repetition of the last blunder, as the Re publican "candidate has no qualifications for the place. Mr. Hamilton, as all know, is a fine lawyer and able speaker, and no indict ment drawn by him is ever thrown out of court. Eugene Guard. Snrup of rigs.

The "Drain Echo" is one of the most use less little papers in Oregon, politically al most independent, far too much so for its own good. The Editor breathes through the col umns ot his paper too much ot the im proper spirit. One of our prominent citizens remarked the other day that he could not imagine what the Echo would do for something to say after election. We know it wont say anything, it will just quit. As I write, a copy of the "Editio Princeps" lies be fore me. As I glance at it a feeling akin to sorrow comes over me as I realize that it is published here. Hurrah for The Review, the finest paper in Douglas county. Long may it live, and ever advocate the principles of the grand old Democratic party. But by the way, we had almost forgotten, we must notice the Plaindealer. One of our merchants recently remarked that said paper was a "little slack," and those words are the most appro priate ones of which our powerful mind can concieve, describing accurately the rapid ad vancement backward of the Plaindealer,is just like the Republican party, its a "little slack, ORSIM. The Record of 1972. In Mr. T. R. Cornelius' speech at Rose- burg he appealed to his record as an insight J into the character of the Republican nominee j for Governor. Since we have been invited to "view the ground where he must shortly lie," we also extend this invitation so graciously extended by Mr. T. R. Cornelius to the voters of Douglas and also to the State. And we would just view his one vote as it stands re corded in the Senate journal of 1872, page 7I4, on what has been known for years as the Columbia river wagon road swindle. See Act on page 81, Session Laws ef 1872. This Act appropriates $50,000 out of the funds arising from the fiye per cent of the net proceeds of the public lands lying within the State of Ore gon. Also out of the funds arising from the sale of swamp, overflowed, tide and other lands belonging to the State. This premedi tated and well-conceived swindle succeeded in securing the money from the State but built no road. Not only did they get the fifty thousand dollars but interest for ten years at 7 per cent, or an additional sum of $35,000, makinB Brand total of $85,000. Does Mr. Cornelius ask, a further examination of the record. This is not one of the largest jobs to which we find the name of the Republican nominee tor Governor on the affirmative list. Voters of Douglas county, care should be taken to defeat all kinds of jobbers, as the record shows Mr. Cornelius to be. Vote for the Democratic nominee and rebuke this Republican jobber. Such men should not be trusted to place and power. . Only Half Alice. There are hosts of men and women who, to coin a ph rase are only half alive. That is to say, they have seldom if ever any appetite, are nervous, weak, fidgity and troubled by numberless small pains and aches. In the presence of vigorous, exuberent vitality they seem mere pigmies. Such persons are usually fond of frequently dosing themselves, swallow ing in the course of the year enough drugs to stock any apothecary's shop of average di mensions. This of course, defeats instead of furthering the end in view, viz., the recovery of health and vigor.

In candor and truthfulness we concede that Hon. W. F. Owens is the bead and front the third party or prohibition movement in Douglas county. In fact we are disposed to admit that he is the brain power of that or ganization in the state of Oregon. His ut terances on the stump should be deemed the official voice of that party. In view of these facts we are grieved to learn that in his great speech delivered in Ten Mile last Saturday he stated that "no man could vote the Democratic ticket and be a christian," We are not advised as W the depth of this man's theolocneal lor I 0 but u occurs to us that this is a sad commen ury upon me condition . ot society in our country. It is a statistical truth that one half the voting population of the United Stales is Democratic and yet not one of them according to Mr. Owens' opinion, can enter the King aom oi iieaven. 101s utterance does no j ... . credit to anyone but does illustrate bitterness and crueltry of heart. Democratic mothers and fathers think of this. ' No matter how wise and prudent may have been your teach ings, your sons are unchristian if they vote the Democratic ticket. What Democrat in the state of Oregon that has ever voted that ticket can swallow this insult and give aid and com fort to a cause sustained by such a sentiment, We remember only a year or so ago when Mr. Owens was the leader of the Democracy of this county, and a gallant one he was. When in deed did he become a christian, and cease to be a heathen? We commend this utterance to his followers and if they agree with him on the day of election then we can be sufficiently christian to say "Lord foreive them th. know not what they do, Looking Glass Items.
