A Pcnuc Meeting. Let everyone in the

purpose of taking into consideration the rm
priety of memorializing Congress to bund t
Custom house in Roselmrg to cost not les
than $50,000. This building is badly needed
in this section.
No Pay Term. At a regular meeting of j
tlwr Board of Directors a few days since, the
School clerk T. Ford presented a report,
which showed a balance amply sufficient to
run the public school full nine months abso
lutely frce.'no rate bills, no nothing. This
speaks well for the Roscburg schools. Let
every one contribute to this good work.
A Comet. A comet is noV noticeable in
the eastern heavens about 3 o'clock a. m.
every morning. . This new comer has a long,
bright tail, and promises to make quite a show
before it leaves this part of our western hemis
phcre. It may bring war for aught we know
; and therefore Congress should at once make
our coast entrances more secure.
Holiday Number. Our holiday number
will be in solid type, with a large five-column
supplement, all containing a full description
of Douglas county. Send in your names for
the number you want. The large patronage
allows us to reduce the price of this extra
number to six and eight cents per copy. A
small numler eight cents, a large number six
cents. This is the number to send to your
friends east. Send in at once.
Social. The sociable at the residence of
Rev. W. A. Smick last Tuesday evening was
a splendid success, financially ana otherwise
The guests were many, the entertainment up
to high water mark, the singing by the Misses
Aggie Hermann and Eva Oakes, and the lcau-
tilul solo, "Knock at the window to-night,
love," by Mrs. S. C. Flint were intensely rel
ished by the audience. That solo must be
heard again in Roseburg.
The Saunders Care. The time for hear
ing the appeal of W. W. Saunders has been
set for December Oih. A stay of esecution
has not yet been granted but probably will
be in a few days, if not by Judge Boise, then
by some other circuit iudge in the state.
When this is granted, It insures Saunders a
few months further lease of life, at-least; he
will have to be re-sentenced in Tune, should
the supreme court affirm the decision of the
lower court. Ex.
A Fine Colt. The following is what the

made.

of the lower room of the Odd Fellows' hall
which with adjacent grounds will be commo

about forty earnest pupils was put in this
room under the supervision ot Miss Maximiiia
Nichols who has taught in different portions of
this county with much success. All of the

last, Nov. 29th, after a lingering illness
For a number of weeks it had been apparent
that there was little hope of recovery, and
liis family and friends were prepared for the

ly and sooner than was feared. The funeral
took place on Tuesday afternoon and was
largely attended, nearly all the surrounding

French Settlement, Dec. 5, ISS6.
Ei. Review, Dear Sir, The people here
and on the Calapooia are indignant over the
prospect of losing our mail route, it was on
Iy last winter through the effort of Hon.
Binger Hermann that this route was re
located, it having been cut off at Cleveland,
But under the present change, not only this
settlement "will be deprived of mail facilities
but also all who live on the Calapooia, from
Umpqua Ferry to Oakland, a distance o
twelve miles. You stated in your last issue
that the people of Millwood would receive
great advantages with this change and also
save 4000 miles travel. Now Mr. Editor we
always thought that it was the province of th
Government to furnish as many of its citizens
with mail facilities as possible, but according
to The Review the object should be to cut off
and make the routes as short as possible, of
course if this policy was kept up long enough
the government would not be troubled with
the mail service, and The Review would hav
to stop publication or peddle out his own
paper. As to this change being any advan
tage to the people of Millwood is a great mis
take, only It may and probably will liencfit
some one pecuniarily, in fact this was tl;
sole object in having the change made. So
far as Millwood was concerned they had con
nection with the main line at Oakland which is
two miles shorter than the new route. Now
we don't object to so important a place as Mill
wood, claiming and receiving all the a.lvan
tagesfrom the outside world, she is entitled to
in fact we think Millwood should have a rail
road so that the only man livintr there oild
ride on tho cars, when not engaged in carry in,
Uncle Sam's mail sack, we will have to submit
for a while at least. But wc hope our mail
route will be restored as it was at first located
some fourteen years ago and where it accom
modated a large number of people.
Respectfully,
Frazier Ward.

Editor Review: In your last issue the
correspondent from this place closes his letter
with the following words "Wc think that
Zero must have forze up, the Scribbler has
scribbled out, the Traveler passed on, and
XXX must have died." If that is so, yoa can
serve as medium, for XXX. The year 1 886
is rapidly drawing to a close and it is well
for all to review their life, should it prove to
be good, amen, if not do better next year, as
you are a Reviewer you can finish the inspira
tional correspondence.
rgain Mr. Editor, one could infer from
reading your Myrtle items that Myrtle Creek
is a very small place; that a few families con
stitute the town. . For the information of the
readers of The Review I can state Myrtle
Creek is a town, and stands a good chance of
bcinir a cltv as s-.m as 10S6. Mr. Simon Se-
lig has a store and it is full of dry-goods, hard
ware, gioceries,etc., he is also post master and
during the past week he has at his own ex
pense made a marked improvement in Jie post
office viz: a bran new set of post iflice loxes,
so you sec that we, like you city fol!;s can be
tony. Alxmt two bhicks from Self's store you
comelo a store kept by a young bachelor fa
miliarity called I lezie Dyer. If Hezie was not
so bashful and modest, the chances are that he
would ere this be a Benedict. . He has a fine
stock of Christmas and New Year's ictas and
Santa Claus would do well to give him a call.
During last week a series of meetings have
been held here by Revs. Michael and Culp,
they closed Sunday night and the chances are
that the ministers did their duty although they
failed to get sinners to the anxious seat, possibly
they may do better next time, especially if they
will desist from censuring the people because
they do not believe as they do.
On Sunday night the DeMoss family gave a
vocal and instrumental concert at the Overland
hotel, they had a good house, all things con
sidered they did well. The church was occu
pied and our opera house is not in a suitable
condition, and a dining room of a hotel is not
suitable for a concert, at the same lime Jeff
Bailey, the landlord of ttie Overland, is entitled
to credit for his efforts in their behalf. The
DeMoss family left here for Deer creek to visit
their relatives, rest and recuperate for two or
three weeks.

ury to congress yesterday were $60,000 for
Cape Neare station, Oregon; for continuing
the survey of the coast of Oregon, and to con

A VERY WARLIKE OUTLOOK.
New York, Dec. 7. The Star's London
cablegram says: Prominent Turkish officials
opposed the sultan's Turko-Russian policy,
declared last night that the porte fears a crisis
any moment in Bulgaria, leading inevitably
to Russian intervention and a European war
in the spring. An out break of hostilities be
tween France and Germany is spoken of as
impossible to ward off any longer than the
coming spring. Turkish officials profess now
to have certain information that Austria will
take the held acamst Kussla, aided at sea
by England.
Gen. VonMoltke's speech has cast a gloom
over all European capitals. Gen . Boulanger
is stated to have privately declared himself in
favor of action in preference to delay, afford
ing Germany or France time to increase their
military strength. He prefers taking the ini
tiative by striking Jhc first blow and involving
Germany. Immense military preparations
respecting which great secrecy is observed,
are going on at the French arsenals.
BULGARIA ADVISED TO ACCEl'T RUSSI a's CAN
DIDATE. Constantinople, Dec. 7. The pore has
advised' the Bulgarian regency to accept Prince
Nickolas of Mingrella as the successor to
Prince Alexander. The reason given is that
his election is the only means to pacify Bui

An Answer.
November, 30, 1886.
Mr. R. M. Logan: Sir, I received your
letter of inquiry and shall proceed to answer.
We have no road yet but if nothing happens
we will get it this winter.- Drains station is
the nearest station about 12 miles distant.
Game is plenty, fish tolerable. There is no
store yet. Now I will say to yon and to all
who contcmDlate cominp to Oreron there is
plenty of good land to be had, both government
and R. R. land all over the country, and
I have known Smith river from the head to
the mouth, I can say that it is the best place
that I know for a small settlement, say about
100 familes, there is good wide sandy bottoms
nearly the full lenght of the river and all the
small streams putting in from large flats, and
all the country wants is men with some means
and plentv of muscla.
T. L. Williams,
THE BAMBLAWASEW WORDS
As time is drawing near when it will be
"close season, for all kinds of deer it is
close now for male deer, elk etc., we think a
few remarks on the proper observation of the
game law will lie in place.
Of late years, in some portions of the coun
try, the game law has been a dead letter; no
attention whatever is paid to it by certain
classes, more or less lawless in their conduct
other ways, and by a few would be respecta
ble members cf society who would hold up
their hands in holy horror if it should lie in
timated to them, ever -so widely, that they
were transgressors against the rights uf their
law abiding neigh bors. We have good game
laws gotten up by talented men, sports
men and gentlemen, who have given the sub
ject much thought and modified and amended
them from time to time to meet the approbation
of certain classes who cry out at the injustice
of anything that docs not permit the wholesale
slaughter of game at all times and places we
have these laws and it is not a hardship to any
one to live under and observe them, and it be
hooves every citizen to do his utmost to see
that they .arc observed, fur public opinion
w ill have more tendency to drive it out than
all the sheriffs and constables in Christendom.
A true sportsman is a man who needs no
game law to govern his actions for there is an
unwritten law a law of humanity that he
will not transgress The game law is made for
certain individuals who recognize no law
human or divine and observe none only through
fear of the consequence if transgressed. For
such as these the game law has a better taste.
A man that will kill a mother doe, or shoot
a mother bird off her nost game law or no
game law is a miserable wretch and no ap
peal that can be made to his manhood or self
respect will I heeded.
It is strange that men well respected by
their aLquaintcnces, and having most of the ac
complishments that make a passable man in
other respects are lax in this one thing and
continue to slap this law in the face with the
most brazen effrontry.
At the meeting of the next legislature there
will be an attempt made by the game butchers
to have the present game law repealed. As
an inducement to the farmers to lend it their
help, it will be claimed that the present law
favors the city sportsmen as it allows them to
hunt when the farmer is bnsy and when the
farmer is at leisure it is close season and he
c.m't hunt. The farmer is amply protected by
the tresspass law and they will regret it when
too late, if they give their support to these
game butchers for with the law as it is the
game is being wantonly wasted at a terrific
rate. Let us keep the present law as it is andj
demand rigid enforcement of it regardless o
w hom it strikes friend or foe.
A late number of the American Field, kind
ly furnished us, has an able article on the
treatment of the game law breakers should
receive. The way the editor of that paper
comes out, takes his stand and hoists his colors
and calls a spade a spade, is a pleasing thing
to see.
"Il is a matter of great regret that with
each returning season there should come the
same reports of game killed off before the
opening day, for great regret that men who as
good citizens respect the laws, should by their
manliness lose their sport; but, bad as this is,
it is nothing in comparison with the disgrace
ful f.ict that among those guilty of this dirty
work may be found men who hold the position
of gentlemen and stand well in the eyes of
the public. It is bad enough for a set of fel
lows ignorant and with neither social nor
moral standing to make them respected to
sneak out, and in the most cowardly manner
outrage public rights; but nothing better can
lie expected from them for they are the
meanest of society and from their ranks are
drawn the pickpockets, sneak thieves and
bar-room beats whose names figurcsj in police
court records and commitments to the peni
tentiary. Such men make much pretentions
to decency and are taken at their own ap
praisal by the public. If they claimed respect
their pretentions would be received with scorn
for they and their associates are out casts with
whom respectable people can have no deal
ings or sympathy. There is nothing to en
force men into association or equality with
such fellows . Those who seek them do so
voluntarily, and because their tastes are kin
dredand their pursuits are alike. Those guilty
ty of the same acts sink themselves to the
same level no matter how great pretentions
to positions may be made and recognized in
other respects. A law breaker is a law break
er, and a thief is a thief whether in broad
cloth or rags, both are alike amenable at the
bar ol justice and the rich thief who pays his
fine is no more respectable, no more worthy
of admission into decent society than the poor
one who goes to jail to work his out. These
are simple facts and no bluster by those who
strive to evade the penalty of their dirty work
can change them.
Game is the property of the state, and he
who takes it unlawfully, be hepretending gen'
tleman or unpretending loafer is a theif as
truly as if he stole the same value in coin from
the state treasury. -It is idle to sneer at such
language as inaplicable to "so trifling a mat
ter as killing a few birds out of season.'' It is
applicable and nothing more than a plain
statement of facts. That it hits hard some of
whom such things ought not to be said is no'
our fault, we do not make them offenders and
we simply speak of the acts they have know
ingly and willfully committed unnecessary
terms. It' they do not like such expressions
they can avoid them by giving no cause for
them, but they need not think they can be
thieves and expect us to regard them as gen
tlemen.
For unlawful killing of game we have laws
that impose fines, but something more than
mere money forfeiture is needed. It 13 an evil
of legislation that its burdens fall unequally
in many cases, according to the pecuniary cir
cumstances of those who incur penalties.- The
poor roan finds it difficult to pay a fine that is
a mere bagatelle for the rich man.
By the harsh judgment of the world the
poor are c-mdemned while the rich are rein
stated as soon as the fine is paid, and men
who would not be seen speaking to the ragged
poacher arc ckeek by jowl with the poacher
in broadcloth who destroyed their sport
This is neither just nor manly, and the men
who act thus dare not avow in principal what
they do in fact. It is loth cowardly and sub
versive nf the hinh moral sentiment which
distinguishes the man of character from the
man without character. It tends also to pre
vent enforcement of the game laws by creating
a class of pnvilcdged offenders, men who can
lm nl .solution cheanlv. whenever they see fit
to oppose their selfish desires to the rights of
as the entire public.
Such men can be reached
only in one way, and that is by being made to
pay the penalty of loss of social position .
Thev deserve this and it should be demanded
of them.
Justice and self-protection demand that
every sportsman should treat alike all law
breakers. If a man is known to have fore-
I stalled his law abiding associates, and by going
1 out before the season, baa lulled game wmcn
would have furnished lawlul pleasure to others
as well as himself, in due time, he should be
treated as one who imprudently approriated
public property to the detriment of those who
would become later its rightful owners. He
should be treated by those about him as a de
tected and punished offender, a man unworthy
to associate with gentleman. This treatment
will be the cheapest task that can be laid upon
his back and under its blows he will writhe as
nothing else can make him.
It is true that those not interested in field
sports, may not appreciate the justice of his
punishment and may even espouse his cause,
but what of that? Are not those who have no
interest in game protection, the men who by
buying unlawful game ofier a reward for un
lawful killing? Are not they to this extent
the enemies of sportsmen and should not
sportsmen defend themselves against them?
It is simple ignorance which makes such nun
support the lawbreakers. Once being fairl y
before them the knowledge of his wrongs, and
they would not uphold him any more than any
other offender. It is only by manly self asser
tion sportsmen can make themselves and their
pursuits respected by those who know nothing
of them and such assertion can find no better
expression than that of holding the law and
ostracizing those who defy it.

Whereas, It has pleased the Great Ar
chitect of the Universe to remove from our
midst brother G. W. Hoover to that Lodge
alove not made with hands; and
Whereas, During all his associations with
us his many virtues have ever merited a fitting
iccognition of his life and character; there
fore be it
Resolved, By Laurel Lodge No. 13 on
the registry of the Grand Lodge of Oregon of
Ancient Free aud Accepted Masons, that on
the death of brother G. W. Hoover, this
Lodge laments the loss of one whose voice of
sympathy and hand of charity were ready first
to console a distressed brother; one who was
actively engaged in the promotion of such in
sti!ut-- ns as tend-most to elevate humanity;
one who was companionable; a citizen who
sought to refine society; and a physician who
stood at the head of the profejsion.
Resolved, That we condole with the
family of the deceased whose best interests we
shall ever guard with watchful eyes; but in
this their extremity we commend them for
consolation to him who is a husband to the
widow, a father to the fatherless, and who
sticketh even closer than a brother.
Resolved, That these resolutions be spread
upon the records of that Lodge; and a copy
thereof be transmitted to the family of the de
ceased brother, and to The Review and
Plaindealer for publication.

SCHOOL REPORT.
French Settlement Ore!
Editor Review: The following is a re
port of term of sch.'ol which closed Nov. 26th
in Dist. No. 25, Douglas Co. Whole No. in
attendance 33. Average 26. The grade
given below in deportment and recitations 100
being perfect. Will also add that this is one
of the best schools the county, though report
states 'tis one of the worst ones, and very
difficult to manage, that the pupils are such
rough hoodlums that no teacher can control
them. This report I know to be wholly false.
Have had no trouble with pupils, and found
them easily managed, very kind, pleasant and
studious. Do not wish a better school . Pu
pils and Tatrons well suited. Directors com
plimented the school highly. County Super
intendent Russell vLsited school once and
spent half a day. Under his control the
schools of the couuty are prospering finely.
Wc think he is the right man in the right
place. His aim is to have the schools of this
county equal to those of any county in the
s'.alc.
