$285,00 Lost.- O. L. Willis sent from
Ia5qm1HL C-lass to Roseburg by his boy ten
years old in greenback to J. F. Bar

of the money ai33 offered at one time by Mr.
Barker as a rc-f -ara, but to this time the greene

lots of monet to lose these hard times.
A Goon j THOUGHT. Theie is a cause for
ivtKininc. It is a well known fact that oil
upon the surface of the ocean will calm the
raging billow but we have not as yet been in
formed by others why it is so. So we will
venture to give a reason. It is because the
oil forms a surface over the water which the
atmosphere presses against equally which is
aoout 14 lbs to the squaw inch. If the oil of
human kindness is applied as.an emolient to
many disaffected persons it wttt have a ten
dency to pacify them, and keep out the cold
chill of ingratitude. L. C.
Catalogue. We have received a copy of
the very neat, twenty-page catalogue of the
Ashland Public School for the year 1886
In addition to the carefully compiled rules,
regulations and course of studyi it gives the
names of all the students enrolled during the
year which number three hundred and seventy
nine and which are about thirty less than reg
istered in the Roseburg public school in the
same time. Roseburg affords the largest
public school in Southern Oregon; Ashland
next; and we believe that, the Jacksonville pub
lie school is next in number to Ashland.
heat Market. The Democrat has
been informed that 65 cents is being paid in
Corvallis for wheat, due to the cheaper freight
on the Oregon Pacific, We are also informed
'that the rate of freight from Albany to San
t rancisco will be the same as that from Cor
vallis. Wheat will probably be crossed
the R. R. bridge from this city by October 1st

facts worth digesting. The present price here

On the principle the little acorns produce
great oaks the people of Olalla resolved
themselves into a little party for the purpose
of inaugurating a little fair which they hope
to see grow into a county fair of respectable
proportions m the near future. Great rivers
begin in little springs. St Louis was once a
trappers hut, San Francisco was in the Tccent
1 ast but a tented hamlet and viewing these
facts may we not hope at some future day to
see tliis movement end in a county fair. When
we adjourn we do so to meet at ; Roseburg
Oakland, Looking Glass, Myrtle creek or any
where offering superior accommodations in one
year from dale. All agriculturists arc invited
to take a part and forward specimens of their
finest stock, grasses, grains, fruit and vegeta
bles which will be freely exhibited. Pre
miums will be given for the finest exhibit of
all farm products. Moral amusements of all
kinds will be permitted and encouraged such
as foot racing, leaping, vaulting, fencing,
horsemanship and marksmanship. The ex
ercises will begin Sept. 17, by a public dinner
in honor of the Douglas County Pioneers and
the Veterans. God when creating those men
intended them for a post of honor, the front
rank of American citizenship. Everybody is
invited to the public dinner with well filled
baskets. After dinner Col. LJ F. Moshcr
will address the Pioneers and veterans. Hon.
& Rev. J. R. N. Bell will next deliver an ad
dress followed by other distinguished speaker.

Ed. Review: I see in your paper of last
week an inquiry by an observer asking where
the rest of the people were as there were so
few at church and Sunday school. If he will
go up main street on Sabbath he will observe
a uumbcrpf them, as the business houses are
in full blast the same as " Monday, and if he
will look in the back rooms he will find some
carrying on there games of billairds arid cards
notwithstanding there . is a plain law against
all carrying on business on Sunday. Now I
would ask some one to tell me where is our
City marshal and night watch and our county
Sheriff on Sunday and Sunday nights. Echo
answers, Where, oh Where,

School Opened: Last Monday the pub
lic school opened with an attendance of 1S3,
and four teachers. Inasmuch as the school
is receiving even more encouragement gener
ally than it did at the opening last year, the
School Board will as soon as necessary afford
such additional accommodations that too
many need not be put in one room for the good
of the health of the pupils. Also additional
facilities will be secured so that the children
in our community may become educated young
men and women who will succeed everywhere
they may go. Kcmem ber that the school is
free to all who draw public money in this dis
trict. Pupils that 'did not pass ' examinations
when they left school will, on entering school
apply to the Principal who will examine them
in their studies merely that he may put them
in the classes where they properly belong.

Postal Matters. Thomas' G. Reams, of
Jacksonville, who has been appointed aosial
inspector for this district, reported for duty
yesterday. Important changes have taken
place in the postoffice inspection division of
the Northwest lately. Heretofore San Fran

A Ferfeet Hahing Powder.
The great success of the- Royal Baking
Powder is due to the extreme care exercised
by its manufacturers to make it entirely pure,
uniform in quality, and of the highest leaven
ing power. All the scientific knowledge,
care and skill attained by a twenty years' prac
tical experience are contributed toward this
end, and no pharmaceutical preparation can
be dispensed with a greater accuracy, pre
cision and exactness. Every aiticle used is
absolutely pure. A number of chemists arc
employed to test the strength of eaA ingredi
ent, so that its exact power and effect in com
bination with its co- ingredients is definitely
known. Nothing is trusted to chance, and no
person is employed in the preparation of the
materials used or the manufacture of the pow
der, who is not an expert in his particular
branch of the business. As a consequence,
the Royal Baking Powder is of the highest
grade of excellence, always pure, wholesome
and uniform in quality. Each box is exactly
like every other, and will retain its powers
and produce the same and the highest leaven
ing effect in any climate, at any time." The
Government Chemists, after having analyzed
all the principal brands in the market, in their
reports placed the Royal Baking Powder at
the head of the list for strength, purity, and
wholesomcncss, and thousands 1 tests all
over the country have further demonstrated
the fact that its qualities arc, in every respect,
unrivaled.

A Gentle Stimulus.
Is imparted to the kidneys and bladder by
Ilostettcr's Stomach Bittlcrs, which is most
useful in overcoming torpidity of these organs,
Besides infusing more activity into them this
excellent tonic endows them with additional
vigor, ana enables 111cm inc belter to undergo
the wear and tear of the discharging function
imposed upon them by nature. Moreover, as
they are the channel for the escape of certain
impurities from the blood, increase their use
fulness by strengthening and healthfully stim
ulating them. In certain morbid conditions of
these important organs, they fall into a slug
gisn state, wmcn is uic usual percursor of
disease. What then can be of greater service
than a medicine which impels them to greater
activity when slothful? No maladies are more
perilous than those which affect the kidneys,
and a medicine which averts the peril should
be highly esteemed.

It is an admitted fact that when whiskey
could be bought for 15 cents per quart that
there was less liquor drank by the youths than
now.- This increase is claimed to result from
the increase of saloons. We never had any
faith in an utterly unreasonable Prohibition,
it is not practicable, and in a free country like
this should never become a law. Oregon

CllARLES'iON, Sept. !, I II A. M. An
r . 1
earthquake such as has never been known in
the history of this city swept over Charleston
last night shortly after 10 o'clock, causing
more loss and injury to property and far more
loss of life than the cyclone of a year pre
viously. Its wrecked streets are encumbered
with masses of fallen bricks and tangled tele
graph and telephone wires, and up to an early
hour it was almost impossible to pass from one
part of the city to another. Most of the peo
ple with their families, passed the night in the
streets, which ven this morning are crowded
with people afraid to re enter their homes.
More than Sixty persons were killed and
wounded, chiefly colored. Among the whites
the killed and; fatally wounded are: M. J.
Lyach, Dr. R.j Alexander Hamlim and Ams
ley Robeson. jFire broke out in different parts
of the city immediately after the earthquake
and some are jstill burning, but there is no
danger of their spreading. There is no way
of leaving the city at present.
HUNDREDS HOMELESS.
The principal business portion of the cily
was destroyed,! and hundreds' of persons were
rendered homeless. The main station house,
cily hall, Hilicrnian hall andjnany other well
known rublic buildings, including SK
Michael's church, are irreparablydamaged.
Many people are seriously if not fatally in
jured. Broad street presents a spectacle of the
utmost horrorf Even women, armed with
hatchets, fought valiantly to rescue imprisoned
unfortunates, j Meeting street, from Broad to
Hazel, is a wreck and is lined with onfortu-
nates. To add to the horror of the scene
many fires broke out, and were effectually
fought by the fire department. The night
was hideous vvith groans and dying screams of
the wounded iand prayers of the uninjured.
It is impossible to estimate the extent of the
losses 01 life and property at present. Up to
I A. M. to-day there had been ten distinct
shocks. - - ? I
THlitTV-THREE KILLED. j
The official total of deaths is thirty-three.
The wounded; will probably number 100.
Business is still suspended. "tha whole atten
tion of the people being given to providing fur
refuge and makifig residences safe. Brick
layers have advanced their rates to $6 a day.
The city courcil will probably meet to-mor'
row to provide measures for relieving the poor.
Expressions efrgralitude are heard on all sides
for assistance offered to Charleston, of which
the suffering people will gladly avail them

READY FOR BUSINESS.
At a joint meeting of the Charleston ex
change and Merchants' exchange to-day the
following was unanimously adopted: ,
To all exchanges and commercial bodies
Our banks, warehouses, cotton presses,
wharves, railroads, rice mills and everything
else necessary ! for handling business, though
damaged, are in working order. We fear no
further damage. The destruction of property
will cause great distress and suffering, but will
not interfere with the dispatch of business.
! A. W. Taff,
President Charleston Exchange.
I' B. BoiMANN,
Tresident Merchants' Exchange."
The joint meeting also adopted a resolution
to apply to (Ke president and congress for a
national loan tb aid citizens of Charleston in
rebuilding the city.
ANOTHER TERRIFIC SHOCK.
New YoRKj Sept. 3. has just been
received here of another severe shock of earth
quake at Charleston. All wires arc down.
Charleston,, S. C, Sept. 3. At one
minute to II o'clock to-night another shock
passed over tjie city. Consternation again
prevailed. The people camping in the public
squares are singing and praying.
Two buildings fell. " A white women, name
unknown, was killed by a falling wall this eve-
nuig.
ANOTHER SLIGHT SHOCK.
Charleston, Sept. 5. There was another
shock at 11:05 to-night. It was not very se
vere, and the duration was about two seconds.
The prevailing belief is that the worst is over,
and the inhabitants arc reasonably secure from
further visitations of earthquake. This belief
is based mainly upon assurances of scientists,
who say there' is only the slightest probability
of a recurrence of more powerful shocks after
the lapse of sot much time.
With a feeling of comparative security thus
engendered, citizens who left the city in hot
haste to cludej the danger have begun to arrive
m small numbers, and visitors and sightseers
are putting in an appearance. Four times as
many people w ere registered for dinner at the
hotels to-day jthan at any time since the visita
tion of the earthquake, and all available rooms
of the various hotels are engaged for to-night.
Few if any of those rooms would be occupied
in case 01 another shock, ana tnat may come
with the pressure of tide at midnight.
Very few of the regular inhabitants will re
tum to their homes during the week. In fact
it is the most i daring of the strangers who yet
venture inside of a building, and those only
because they have not a true appreciation of
the effect a severe shock would have at this
time, when houses hang together by slender
threads. j " .
' Large Contributions Pouring In for
; the Earthquake Sufferers.
Charleston, Sept. 6. At 9 o'clock
this
morning the (headquarters of the relief com
mittees was crowded by unfortunate earthquake
sufferers. The members of the committees are
kept busy writing passes on the rarlways to
other points. The committee prefer to give
this character of assistance above all others.
It gets the junfortunates away. Orders for
rations are being issued, but money is given to
no one. i "'""
ALMOST a stampede.
Dunns' the rush of applicants for aid a
large section of the Meetinghouse street
front ot the court house opposite the city hall
fell out. The report of the fall was equal to
an earthquake shock, and immediately the as
sembled thousands, in and out of the city build
ings, began to sway and move like billows of
the sea. - The cooler heads present mounted
chairs and adnomished the people to give way
quietly and not become excited.. The scene
was appalling for a short time, but quiet was
finally restored. The men at work teanng
down the frail portions of the court heuse
werefordered to stop work. Acting Mayor
Hughes savs the relief committees are now
assisting :". One-third of Charleston s ; en
tire population Mayor Courtney is expected
to arrive tomorrow, and will hold a special
meeting oi the city council, when decisive
steps will be- taken to afford protection from
falling .buildings, and to clear the streets
the debris which now impedes progress.
outside contributions
I" ispatches continue to pour in offering aid,
and about $95,000 has- already reached fhere.
From indications at hand it is believed that
the contributions will finally aggregate $500.
000, and that $200,000 will have arrived by
to-morrow night.

San FRANcisco, Sept. 3. The convention
was called to order at 10:25 A- M
Senator Johnson, of Sonoma, withdrew the
name of Reddy for the governorship.
Mitchell withdrew that of ex-Mayor Byrant
of San Franscisco.
Balloting for governor then liegan. For
some time Bartlctt and Berry ran pretty nearly
an even race, with Tarpcy a long distance be
hind. Then Bartlctt ran slowly ahead, and
when San Franscisco cast 101 of its votes for
Bartlett and only six for Berry, a general desire
became apparent among those who had al
ready voted to change their votes to Bartlctt.
The chairman, however, announced that no
change would be allowed until the entire roll
had been called. As soon as San Joaquin cist
its fifteen votes solid for Bartlctt's nomination
was assured. When the roll call was com
pleted Alameda changed its solid vole 0
twenty-five from Tarpey to Bartlett. Los An
geles also change, and cast its twenty-four
votes solid for Bartlett. A motion was then
njade to give Bartlett the nomination by ac
cla mation. This was done and was followed
by intense excitement. Hats were thrown in
to the air amid loud and long cheers, and ban
ners and hankerchiefs were waved. The ex
citement had somewhat subsided when Bartlett
was introduced by-Chairman WKite as the next
governor of California: He was greeted with
tremendous cheering. He spoke as follows:
"I return you my great and heartfelt thanks.
Should the people of California sanction your
election, I will give you a good and honest ad
ministration. '
HAILSTORM IN PARIS.
Boston, Sept. 7. A cable dispatch speaks
of a hailstorm, accompanied by high wind,
which recently prevailed in Paris and its
environs. It was most severe in the suburbs,
where it destroyed trees, fruits and vegetables.
Largojrccs were torn to shreds by the hail.
The loss to glass and gardens is estimated at
$1,000,000. The Bois de Vincenneshas the
appearance ot a riddled by cannon shot.
SWINDLER FLED TO THE UNITED STATES.
Monreal, Sept. 7. The liabilities of
Ler.poid Isaacs, the absconding tobacco mer
chant of this dity, exceed $160,000, with prac
tically no assets. It is stated that several
forgeries and other swindling schemes have
been brought to light and that steps will be
taken to secure Isaac's extradition. He is in
Philadelphia.
MORRISON RENOMINATED.
St. Louis, Sept. 7. The Democratic con- j
gressional convention of the Eighteenth Illinois
enstnet, which met at Oreenville, Illinois,
to-day, renominated Hon. W. R. Morrison.
. Columbia Conference.
The most unmitigated inconsistency, ap
pears m an article in the Benton Leader of
Sept. 3d. This self-constituted "Columbia
Conference" says a few of the Board, four
in number, segregated the College, and then
proceeds to censure them for their wontonly
officiousness. And yet this same inilivitl-
McTf makesa proposition to the people of
Corvallis and vicinity for the whole confer
ence, which the conference never authorized
one syllable. The Columbia Conference has
never been in session since last year.
Talk of officiou&nesg. Shades of Carlyle.
This man ought to hang his hat on the moon.
The Board of missions last May in Richmond
Va. offered $8000.00 to help build the college,
anu 1 us remaining $4500.00 to make one
half of $25000.00 has been assumed by this
person calling himself Columbia Conference.
Now if this individual wants to furnish
this money, all right, but to sign a misleading
nondeplume, we think is not right, for the
conference never told him to do so. Let the
state keep the college which it w ill do, and
let the people raise the money, which they
ought to do, and this much vexed question
will be settled, and all will go on their way
rejoicing.

time aeo by fire. The State Insurance is a

the best men in Oregon. Mr Chapman says;-
I take much pleasure in fully recommending
the State Insurance Company of Salem Ore
gon as a reliable and trustwoithy institution
The State is liberal and fair in its adjustments
and prompt in its payments. My barn which
was destroyed by fire on the night of July 20,
was insured jn this company, arid I have this
day (Aug 25,- 1S86) received from itsf adjuster

forty three one hundredth dollars in prompt
and satisfactory paymcut therefor Insure in

It r a Chestnut.
The young man had taken her hand, and
was pleading in impassioned tones, as they
sat together on the sofa.
"Irene," said he, "though I am not the
possessor of great wealth, I can offer you the
devotion of a heart that is yours alone -a love
that is as boundless as the ocean and as endur
ing as the everlasting hills." The aim of. my
life shall be to minister to your happiness, and
to shield you from every stormy blast. Your
smile sliall be my heaven. Oft in my fancy's
wanderings "
At this moment the silvery tone of a little
gong was heard. The young man paused,
turned pale, and said- in an agonized voice:
"O, Irene I At such a moment as this,
when my life's happiness is trembling in the
balance, can you be so cruel and so heartless
as to pull a chestnut gong on me?"-
The rock defence or offence is becoming
quite in vogue. In front of Champaigne's
hotel in the street Tuesday morning, two of
our citizens became angry and one of them
picked up a rock to throw, but, upon reflec
tion he desisted. A good idea.
