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.

Ed. 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.

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

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.

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

The "Drain Echo" is one of the most use

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

the way, we had almost forgotten, we must

recently remarked that said paper was a "little

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. Were they to seek it

DEMOCRACY AXD CHRISTIANITY.
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

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

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.
