Imagine our surprise when we steped into
P. Benedick's manufacturing cabinet ware
rooms last Saturday morning, and in addition

Tolles the painter. This is as it should be,
because Mr. Benedick is a competent work
man anywhere, and deserves home patronage.
The Show. The V. D. Band 'boys have
definitely settled that they will go to Coos
Bay on 30th and 31st of July, and open their
side-splitting fun on the Bay by Aug. 1st or

they arc well up in histrionic art. The audi
ences will be pleased and satisfied.
The Wedding. The wedding bc"!s rang
out clear and shrill last evening at the resi
dence of Richard Thomas of Oakland, when
his accomplished daughter Miss Fannie, and
Bold. Dear were joined in the holy bonds of
matrimony Rev, J. K. N. Bell officiating.
Next week we shall give full particulars con
cerning the wedding. ,
One IIvndred In The Shade. Last
Sunday was the hotest day ever experienced
in Rosimrg since the establishment of the
Signal Service in this place 9 yrs. ago July 16,
except one about 4 yrs. ago which was three
tenths of a degree hotter than the one rclered
to above. This is such a high degree of heal
n Oregon, that many felt quite uncomfotablc.
The '"Wrong Woman. The other day
coming over on the train, so the story goes,
a youag married gentleman from around here
. got up an alleged joke on his wife. The
plan, as he detailed it to the car load of people
was to be near the scat where his wile was
sitting as the train passed through the long
tunnel and then to kiss her under the pretense
of being another fellow. In the darkness,
however, he missed the seat and kisaed an
old lady. The spectacle, as the tfain emerged
into the light, was a wrathy old lady, an indig
nant young wife and a crest-fallen joker.

The Storm. Last Monday afternoon when
the storm struck the town with the force of a
centlc whisper, the foreman of the Flaindcalcr
office became o frichtcned that he ran out of
the office, and in his frenzied flight to a place
ol supposed safety, he ran over goods boxes,
telegraph poles," tilinc, etc. etc., and with a
degree of sadness we chronicle the result a
follows; at last accounts on the following day
we learned that he had his neck bro oh! beg
pardon, he had his ankle sprained, and was
lying up for repairs at the residence of his
Rosalia, who -was whispering words of encour
" agemcnt to him to return to his place of busi
ness, as the storm had blown over, although
he was somewhat out of "sorts" and got his
manly "form" considerably "pied. ' Moral.

Dear Sir: The Commissioners ofiiiimigra
lion, having decided to send another exhibit
car, freighted with Oregon products, on a tour
of states east of the Rockies, most earnestly
request your valuable assistance in making the
necessary collection of grains, grasses, fruits,
vegetables, woods, minerals, etc While Mr.
D. D. I'rettyman has been appointed general
collector for the Board, the commissioners hope
for and have need of prompt and efficient work
on the part of those whose interests will be
largely benefitted by the results ot showing
Oregon products in the eastern slates. The
commissioners are anxious that every county,
arid particular locality in the state shall be rep
resented in this car, and to this cud, request
your assistance. A very small amount of labor
from two or three persons in each county, will
in the aggregate, provide an adequate supply
ol these specimen products. Through the
courtesy of railway managers, the commis
sioncrs are able to say, that all sample pro
ductions, intended for this purpose, and ad
dressed to Chas. II. Dodd, President of the
State Board of Immigration, Portland Oregon,
will be carried free of cliarge. You can leave
the package in charge of the station agent, or
put it into tho baggtje car.
Hoping for your sympathy and help in this
work, we remain,
Respectfully yours,

AX AWE AT..
: Written for Tun Review
Sitting alone in my office to-night I happened
to pick up the following note that had been
handed me during the day, by a bright pnd
prepossessing young man of eighteen.
"Dear Sir. Can you not give my son a let
ter of introduction to some of your business
acquaintances in San Francisco, to aid him in
getting a situation in some commercial house?
He will, if he succeeds in getting a situation,
devote his earnings to study in one of the
night schools of the city, and as soon as he has
sufficient means I want him to study law or
medicine, do try and help him."
This lad has been raised on a farm, he has
attended a full term of school at one of the
graded institutions of California. I have
promised to write the letter his mother solk its.
What a troop of possibilities come to me now
that I am alone. Influences emulating from
the-multitude of schools, colleges and semina
ries of learning, both of high and low degree,
that dot our land thick as autumnal leaves, lead
ourjouths to abandon the workshops and the
the farm, and seek soruc smoother and easier
road to fortune and to fame. This influence is
an evil one, because it tends to degrade labor
in the estimation of the public mind. The sen
timent alluded to is re-echoed by the press un
til it has become exceedingly unpopular lo of
fer any opposition even to its manifest abuse.
The result of this morbid state of public senti
ment is to fill the youthful mind with a restless
ambition that depopulates the farm and fills
the country with genteel idlers Who scorn the
idea of weak and who are destined necessarily
to precarious methods of obtaining a decent
and honest living. The whole country swarms
with impecunious and briefless lawyers, seedy
doctors destitute of patients and pocketloss of
fees, with poverty stricken preachers vainly
striving to keep the wolf from the door, and
finally with untold legions ot school teachers,
clerks, book agents and other weedy adven
turers without permanent employment or visi
ble means of support. It is not possible that
all this vast herd of non producers can make
an honest and decent living. There is no fact
more susceptible of proof than this, that the
majority of professional men are and of ncces
sity must be poor, the supply is greater than
the demand, hence the few succeed while the
many fail.' There is unquestionably an ex
aggerated estimate for men in the popular pro
fessions, especially as to law and medicine.
Many a quiet farm house under this impulse
has been robbed of a boy who would have been '
a help to his parents and a success at home.
Many a good, honest country lad, who would
have culminated in a quiet, steady, respectable,
well to do, if not a wealthy farmer, has been
taken from the scenes of his humble but use
ful labor, and transformed into a half starved
jack leg lawyer, a very common sort of a doc
tor, or nn exceedingly and tiresome preacher,
floating about from one congregation to an
other, and living on half rations, or from hand
to mouth, i Let the lad on the farm ponder
well ihcse considerations before leaving his
sphere of usefulness, and adequate income, the
sure result, of honest toil. Who are the solid
men in our community ol the land, whose
names will pass muster on notes, bankable or
otherwise, when' guilt edged "security is de
manded? I answer unhesitatintrl v and emnhat-
cally the owners of the real estate the farm
ers in the community, a lawyer may have the
eloquence of a Webster or Patrick Henry, a
doctor the skill of Sydenham, a preacher the
melting pjithos of Whitfield, the quaint mogna-
tism of Sain Jones, or the incisive and original
genius ol B-eWitt Talmage, and yet his name
in bank njt be worth the paper upon which
ii i w tui.cn. -l "al a smuggle 11 is w nn niost
profession at men to live in . any decent, com.
fortable stfle, what sacrifice of self respect,
what consiint dread of mind to dodge the
butcher, the grocer, the shoe maker, the tai
lor, with their hands full of over due bills, that
are so hard to meet. A man to be cither com
fortable or respectable must have the means to
live on, men may have flattering titles, whole
strings of letters before or after their names,
but if the gaunt, grim face of poverty is hidden
behind the screen, there is no solace in these
hollow appendages of human pride, misery is
there. ' There is no name that commands such
omnipotent and universal respect as that
spelled by the four magical letters c A S H.
The man that secures public confidence and
esteem must be able to meet his contracts, he
must have money, or property, or both, there
is no substitute. Learning, skill, titles, arc of
no avail to meet the wrath of the unsatisfied
creditor. - An industrious, economical and
prudent farmer, or a sober skillful mechanic
can always command the means to meet tho
lemands made upon him. The young farm
er may not always look as sleek or tony as the
merchant's clerk, but he has the elements of a
sturdy manhood that always commands public
esteem. Let not the honest country lad with
hands brown from honest toil be made restless
or dissatisfied b the glare and glitter, the
show and tinsel of the crowded sidewalk. Let
him not envy the spruce and dapper clerk,
w ith his starched collar, his shiny toothpick
shoes, with his gold watch chain attached lo
a three dollar watch, or perhaps one made out
of block tin, these oft proclaim the dude and
not the man. He is perhaps after all only an un
derground clerk who has to run into the cellar
to draw molasses, foal oil and tar for the pa
trons ol the store. The chances of success arc
infinitely greater in the country than they are
in the town. Every occupation of life in the
latter is full lo overflowing. If this is doubted
let an advertisement appear in the column of
"wants" in any city paper and then witness
the number of applications for the situation
named within the first twenty-four hoars.
Swarms of men out of any sort of employment
are constantly found in all the large cities of
our land. Most of these would gladly work
for their board and lodging, to say nothing of
their clothing. Idleness invariably leads lo
yicc, and when starvation stares a man in the
face he is ready to steal, and the sombre jaws
of the state prison stand open to teceive him.
In a moral point of view, the city is a bad place
for youth, amid the evil influences and multi.
plied temptations surrounding him, the inex.
perienced lad from the country is exposed to a
thousand perils unknown to the quiet and
peaceful life of the farm, part young men, men
young in years but old in iniquity, hoary
headed whelps, corrupters of unsuspecting, in
genious youth, living idle, desolutc lives, sur
round him on all sides. The cunning spiders
of the devil lie in wait on every corner to
lure hira into their vile and polluted dens, and
to lead his foot from virtue's path, great beasts
of humanity are ever ready to entice the un
wary youth into the gilded halls w here
"Men with no seeming of manhood,
With countenances flaming and foul,
Drink deep of the fiery fountain,
That springs from the rivers of hell."
Another fact; good health is an essentia-'
factor in the problem of successs anywhere.
Without good health, which is the reward o
correct habits, no man can succeed in life.
Contrast the chances of good health in the city
with those of the country, the city with its
foul air, hs crowdel streets, its compound of
villainous smells, its impure water, second
hand food of unknown and suspicious qualities
certainly is less favorable to health than th
country. Besides these ever present prcdis.
posing causes of disease, crowded streets arc
the points upon which great and malignant
epidemics burst with all their frightful fury,
sweeping into the grave thousands almost every
year, from this terrible scourge and its fright
ful mortality the country is happily exempt.
True, death is everywhere, but the chances of
long life are greater in the country, amid its
pure air and healthful employments, its peace
ful surroundings and its tranquil scenes, man
may reach the utmost alloted period of hu
man life, I fiimly believe he can also lead a
liettcr life and be a better man on the farm
than he can anywhere else. Let our country
boys seriously ponder these things, let them
pause before surrendering a life of sturdy en
dependence and invigorating labors for the
precarious existence and moral perils that must
be their lot in the great city.

Elder Thomas Stephens is dead. Early on
the morn of July 19th, 1SS6, an angel severed
the brittle thread of life; and at 2 o'clock r. M.
his lifeless remains, mantled in the coffin, w ere
solemnly consigned to the city of the dead; -"earth

With a feeling of profound reverence wc
point the reader to the life of the Baptist boy
preacher who was born in Wales in 1803 and
came to America in iS2S. In Oneida county,
New York, July 15th, 1S34, he and Miss Eliz
abeth Jones were united in matrimonial bonds
by Elder Bishop of New Port, N. V. .With
his beloved companion, he came to Ohio in
1836, and from thence moved to Oregon in
1852. Having been admitted to the ministry
at the early age of sixteen, his acquirement
and brilliant experience backed up by strong
natural ability, made of him a power in the
pulpit antl a giant in christian warfare during

After collecting a handsome estate for his sus
tenance in the latter days of his terrestrial se-
journ, general debility intervened, antl the
beloved shepherd left a wife, two sons and two
daughters; the oldest daughter having gone be
fore. The lives of many might be written on sand,
but the virtues of this venerable father should
be written on the most durable stone; for
though he has gone, they will remain to bless
the world. We need not put one flower upon
his grave; the nobler of M's acts w ill bloom
around his family circle who will congregate
about the hearth where they will seo the one
vacant chair, forever forsaken by the jne who
could not stay. His deeds will perpetuate him
in the warm fireside of his fellows' affection
where the darling charms of broken memory
reside ami thrill a thousand tender cords lo
remind us that another pioneer of Oregon has
gone. These are memories; they arc enough
to endear the dead to the living, until wc
verge to the brink of that broad extreme where
the dying fade among the dead and the living
arc bright, immortal, pure as glory. And
could we but know the great unknown that
resided in that uncomplaining breast 'neath that
countenance of perennial sunshine we would
eye the fittest monument that can be placed
to a christian pioneer.

A Ilriff llrmiiite of What Tltctf are ltviiitj.
Robert J. Hendricks, editor of the "Salem
Statesman," was once connected, with the
"Plaindealer." He is a graduate from the
Normal department of the State L'nvcrsity.
While he is a spicy local writer, lie stands
high in the ranks as a political editor; and
many have come to think that he is the author
of the celebrated-"Ned II. Pell" commuica
tions that regularly appear under the heading
of "Saturday Night" in the Statesman. Un
der the present management that journal has
grow n rapidly in popularity, and is now looked
upon as one of the most thrifty, loyal Repub
lican papers in the State.
S. F. Floed, editor of the "Prohibition
Star," was once connected with The Review.
lie is a brilliant speaker ami strong writer.
Under bis able management, the "Stat"' La,
convinced the Republicans and the G. O. 1'.
that Prohibition, in a third party sense, is
spelled with four syllables and not two, as
"prohi;" and many have about come to think
that the new four syllable party has come to
slay. Evidently the "Star lias: if ever that
arty should become so fortunate as to come
nto power, tney would be but doing them
selves justice to eleel Fred, governor.
Henry S. Strange, formerly teacher in cur
school, is now as hitherto announced principal
f the second beat school in Linn county.
Ic has attended Willamette University where
e stood high in bis classes. He possesses a
literary turn of mind," and is a good speaker;
and may in the near future take up the study
of law. As a teacher he standi high, and w ill
ake a success at the business.
Many of our young ladies neglect to learn
any other trade or business than housekeeping.
This is rather singular since every memlier of
the leading royal families are, by law, cora-
el!ed to learn a trade. Miss Mamie Jones
was for a long time typo in an office in this
city and now noids a case in tne capital.
Ier inclinations are in a literary direction;
and it now seems quite probable that soon
she will be one of the owners antl managers
of a good paper in this State.
Mr. George Saubert, son of Dr. W. Saubert,
formerly of this city was once a lialf owner of
the "Plaindealer." He is foreman of the
'Salem Statesman"' w hich is oneof the neatest
apers printed anywhere. He is also oneof
the principal owners of that journal; is about
twenty-two years of age; and is, although he
cnics the charge, a possible candidate for
nomination at the next matrimonial convention
that will assemble at the capital city.
Mr. L. F. Conn who was raised near this
ity w as honored w ith the degree of Batchclor
f Arts by Willamette University at the last
commencement. A gold medal was also pre
sented to him by that institution of learning
for most proficiency in mathematics. Next
ear he will return to that school for the pur-
ose of taking a full course in law. Daniel
Webtcr tohl his father that there is always-room
on the upper scats: Eafe will select the highest
pew for himself thnl he can find.
Isaac A. Manning, formerly of Riddles but
now of Salem, is, considering his age, one of
the smoothest w riters on general topics in the
State. His word pictures of scenery arc as
ue and generally as vivid as portraits. He
is good at sketching. He writes easily; and
ting conscious of his ability as a Bohemian,
e undertakes the discussion of any subject;
and as a rule, "does it up brown" before he
juits. He will likely some day be connected
with one of the leading literary journals of
the land.
Frank Hamilton, son of Dr. S. Hamilton
of this city, learned the art of telegraphy here.
Ie is an expert at the; business; has held an
enviable position at Astoria during the last
four years; and is "coining money" as rapidly
as any other young niiin within the range of
our observation. Dollars saved for a rainy;
ay will always come in piace when most
ee led, and some ot.our young people arc
taking time by the forelcck m this respect.
Charles L. Mosher, son of Hon. L. F.
Mosher, was the - founder of the "Western
Star" published in Roseburg and the 'Benton
Blade" which w as the germ that grew into a
mighty power that finally upheaved the poli-
ics of that county and gave it to the Demo-
ciats. As our readers know, Charley worked
at his trade in Jacksonville and afterwards
went to Arizona where he is now the editor
f the "Arizona Gazette," the leading journal
of that Territory- He "married an accom-
lishcd lady; and he is wealthy. Everyone is
leased to learn of Charley's success in life;
and will gladly greet him when he visits his
native town again.
In this article, wc name bul few of our
ounger "literati; but win in ttie uuure
give an account of others. These young peo-
lc have gone abroad, made new acquain
tances, and are making success of their work.
But withal this we have, or at least should
have, a parental inlere .t in them. We want
to sec their laudable efforts crowned with
success, so that others growing up in our
midst may profit by their good examples and
never be satisfied until they have gained some
worthy position in life where they can be
most useful to humanity .
