IIOSKBUHC REVIEW ISSUED FRIDAY MORNINGS i , by THE REVIEW PUBLISHING CO. J. R. N BELL, Editor FRIDAY, AUGUST 5, 1887. FOR TllE JVffE EIECTIOX. One of the proposed amendments which is to be decided by the people of Oregon at the special November election is that changing the time of holding elections from June until Nov ember. The reason for the propssed change is that during the Presidential years we hold two elections one in June and the other in November. And the passage of this measure would save the expense and trouble of the Juno election. But the saving would only be once in four years and it is always doubtful whether any small money consideration should be allowed to interfere with what may be to the interest of the state and people. The writer is decidedly of the opinion that it is an erroneous principle to elect the President of the United States at the same time that State and county ofii - ccrs are berng chosen. The Presiden tial office should be filled at an election devoted entiiely to the discussion of national tnp.isures and candidates, and should not be mixed up with petty local & flairs and quarrels over coucty spoils. It should not be made a trad ing scheme in the interest of corrupt and dishonorable politicians who would seek to feather their own nest at the expense of the people's desire in matters of great national importance. Most of the states have elections every year for some of their officers and Ore gon with its four years term for state offices and two forcounty, has none too frequent elections and the fact that the Presidential election comes by itself, freed from all chance at rorrupt bargains and sales is a matter more for congratulation than regret. There should be a general discission cf this . question by the press of the state and the verdict of the people would doubt less be in favor of letting well enough , alone and of sustaining the June elec tion. Mr. Sherman as a Vanditlotr. The recent Ohio republican state convention, which nominated Governor Forakerfor re-election, passed practi cally unanimously a resolution endors ing Senator John Sherman, of that state, for tho presidential nomination next year. Senator Sherman, in point of ability and experience, is one of the most prominent public men in the republican party, but as a presidential factor, there has been nothing in his long public career which has ever linked him with thercause of the people. He has grown rich in office, being a millionaire and as secretary of the treasury under Hayes he was the subservient tool' of the "Wall street money power. That there would be a powerful effort made by the corpora tions to elect Senator Sherman no one can doubt. Probably with the single exception of Lcland Stanford, of Cali fornia, who is to be considered as a presidential quantity,- there is no man in the nation, who would suit the rail roads, the banks, the Jay Goulds and the money cormorants more as presi dent tlian Mr. Sherman. With this class, on the other hand, Mr. Blaine, who must be regarded as the head of the republican party, is not popular. Not, in fact, because they doubt his subserviency to the money powei as the famous Deluionico dinner testified, but because Mr. Blaiuo entertains many demagogic schemes that would doubtless considerably unsettle Ihe business of the country, provided it were ever so unfortunate as to elevate him to the chief magistracy. Mr. Shernian lias no love for the common people and makes no pretense to any. His presidential boom seems to be growing larger as Mr. Blaine's grows more beautifully less. But no matter which, if cither, secures the nomination as Mr. Cleveland will bo inaugurated for his second term on March 1th liSSD. scholarships in the State Univer sity are not sought as eagerly as might perhaps be expected. Ono reason, no doubt, is tho hih price of ordinary board and lodging in Eugene which students have to pay. From four to five dollars a week in a country town, where the fare is plain and the rooms ordinarily furnished, is too high a price for pupils to pay. At least it is too much for those pupils to whom the small saving resulting from procuring a scholarship is a matter of importance. There are a number of people in Eugene, who consider the universitj in the light of an institution created for their benefit, just as many Salem people regard the state fair, and as a consequence, they strive to make the most of it by serving plain country food at city prices to students who are trying to eke their way through a classical course in this institution. It is no doubt that to this fact is due the many vacancies in scholarships, and the further fact that many of these scholarships are forfeited by the ab sence of pupils after the fii-st year. Telegram. GOOlt TIMES JtEItE. All indications demonstrate that tho era of business degression in Douglas county is at an end and 'hat good times are being ushered in. All that is necessary is for our people to take advantage of the splendid oppor tunities wliich nature has vouchsafed to our favored region and by push and energy develop the resources that are lying in all directions. The continual stream of money that has been pour ing into this country for the past year has at last turned thd tide and the boom is upon us. In the first place there has been a steady and ready sale in the stock market, thousands and thousands of dollars com ng into the country in return for horses, cattle and sheep, which ft fair prices always rep resent two per cent a month. Then the wool clip was large and found a quick sale at good prices, then followed the large real estate transactions, going up into the thousands of dollars and bringing into the country, men of cap ital who will invest in building up the country. This region is bound to vie with Southern California in all nat ural resources. The climate cannot be excelled for even temperature, neither too hot nor cold . The cool summer nights alone are a resource that will yet sell climate for us, as it is sold in lets favored sections. Now let our people turn their attention to tho fruit iudustry, to the establishing and build ing ur of manufficturics and Douglas county will push to the front backed as it is by tliu finest cl'matc Ix neath the blue donis of heaven and resources wonderful iuftlieir extent and grandeur. Production of. lTcallh. Rev. G. M. Steele asks in Work and Wages: "Is it really true that labor products all tho wealth of the world? Of course, by labor here is meant the putting forth of physical energy, other wise the succeeding sentences have no meaning. Does any one who thinks at all about the subject belicvo that the great factories, the docks, the vast buildings of stone and brick and iron in our great cities, the railroads, the mighty steamships, the complicated machines and innumerable other struc tures are the result of manual labor alone? Suppose there is a line of rail way fifty miles in length to be built, and five thousand steady, intelligent, and l-eliable laborers are told to go and build it. Will they be able to build the bridges, to make the deep cuts, to construct the causeways through treach erous swamps, to calculate the grades, and do other equally difficult parts of the workl llow many ordinary wae laborers would it take to produce a Corliss engine, the first of its kind? No; there must be much besides mus cular effort in order to attain these results. There must be toil of brain, long and protracted, and often ex hausting thought, sometimes accom panied by great sacrifices and great hardships. In order to extensive pro duction there are required great men tal qualities, some of them of a rare kind. There is needed power to con trive, to invent, to organize, to direct, or little can be achieved. The man who Uots the organ might claim that he produces all the music of the in strument It is true he is generally an essential condition, but not by any means the only or tho most essential condition. No more is manual laljor the only or the most essential condi tion of tho production of great wealth." A (icncruua nnd Extensive Loitn. An earnest Christian lady makes tho following olfer to our readers: "I .vill loan, free of postal aud all charges to such of your readers as will promise a careful reading and to pay return postage after reading it, a book which in interesting style shows the Bible to be a sclf-interprcler, and its teachings grandly harmonious, viewed in the light of sanctified reason and common sense. "I want to put this book into the hands of all the skeptically inclined, as an aid aud guard against the crow ing scientific skepticism. It is not dry, musty reading, but truly 'meat in due season' to the truth hungry. The light of this precious little volume has made the Bible a new ljook, a treasure, a mine of wealth, to many as well as tn mvself. And I feel that I cannot better use my means than in circu lating tliis work by the thousand.' Address Postal Card to Mrs. C. B. Lemuels, Allegheny, Pa The citizens of St Louis, irrespective of race, creed or political affiliations havp invited President Cleveland to visit their city and he has accepted The citizens of Chicago with the same unanimity have invited the President of the United States, to accept their hospitality, and he will probably visit with them. These are instances of public sentiment that ceitain persons in this country cannot ignore Gex. Tuttle has been accused by Mr. Johnson of St. Louis, in the civil war a lieutenant in the United States Navy, of some crooked cotton transactions. It is said that Fairchild will supplicate God to have Iieut Johnson struck with the three palsies. All state Democratic conventions heartily endorse the administration of President Cleveland. JIOXESTDEVTS XEVEIt OI TLA WED. The Providence Jou rnal relates this incident: A man walked into a gen tleman's furnislung goods store on Westminster street Friday and asked the amount of a bill, with interest which he had run up in the year 1875. When the debt was contracted he was living rather fast, and soon after that time he disappeared. The proprietor gave him the amount of the bill and interest, (whiih was well nigh double its original amount,) and he paid it He vas then asked if he knew that he was not legally bound to pay it; that the claim was outlawed. "Yes," was the answer, "but I'm not outlawed." The same afternoon another man came into the store and s lid that tho same forgotten debtor had paid him a large outlawed bill with interest. This illustiates the important differ ence between a man who Lad integrity roted deep in his moral nature and a man ho was only as honest as the law compel'ed him to be Men of thip sort would need r.o system of commer cial checks on fraud and swindling, and tho enormous injury that every great rascal works the world -does not lie half so much in the suffering he causes; those he has robbed us the fact that he subjects absolutely honest men to the disability of the general commercial distrust and contracted credit that the bad faith of practical men compel soci ety to enforce in the whol) circle of trade. That is, staling men, who de serve liberal credit tul generous treat ment on their own merits, are subjected to the pains and penalties of the exces sive precautions wliicJi business scoun- Itels oblige the victimized public to adopt, and this is why a business rob ber and pirate, when o:icc caught aud convicted, ought to n sternly punished. His villainy rob3 good men of that generous treatment they deserve at the hands of the business world. The sentiment thatjvvhilea claim may "out law" an honest debt is never outlawed with an honest debtor; that a man is bound to pay when he can on the prin ciplc that no debt can outlaw under the moral law with a moral man, is the feeling of every .true man, He ac cepts the indulgence of the law which gives him relief from the full weight of his burden as a humane opportunity a wauled him, not" for the purpose of evading or extinguishing his honest debts, but in order to give him a chance to again get on his feet and pay what he owes. Of course a great many men lcok upon a legal lelease, as a moral re lease, but no true man regards it other wise in morals than the grant of a chance t o shake off the load that drags him under water to reach the shore and to work his way to the command of a new ship. When a man who has had a legal release granted him by an act of bankruptcy or a statute of limi tations, finds himself once more firmly on his feet, able to pay without sub jecting his wife and children to exces sive sacrifice of the direst necessities of life, he is morally bound to pay,' and if he is of the light metal he will pay in full like the honest Providence man, who paiu an outiaweu claim on tne sound plea that no law can extinguish a moral obligation to pay an hoticsi per sonal debt. OrC'jun'uoi. JSAll.KO.lD tXVE.STlO.I TIOS The government investigation of of the construction and management the Central Pacific raihoad threatens to involve Senator Stanford, of Call fornia. and Mr. C. P. Huntington of the same stale in considerable t rouble There is no doubt but that a larjrc amount of the money made by the rail road inagunteK of tho Golden state, was made bv dishonorable methods, smd if the people could bring the guilty par ticsfto justice it would be in accordance with the present era of prosecution of those who betray high trusts. The rc cent conviction of Jacob Sharp, who bribed tho board jf New York alder men must make bribe-givers, however rich, feel as though a day of reckoning 1 were at hand. Before the committee Mr. Huntington speaks of expendi tures into the millions at going to en lighten congressmen on the needs and wants of the country through which tho Central Pacific was to be built. It Ls needless to say that this is almost a free confession of bribery and corrup tion, but the htest phase jn California has closeJ the investigation until the courts can be appealed to, the secretary of several "construction companies'' re fusing to show his books. The facts are beginniM" to assume a dark hue for those men who have amassed mil lions, not from the profits of a railroad, but from tho mere construction of it. Senator Stanford and Mr. Huntington are not giving satisfactory explana tion. It is to le hoped that tjje .com mittee will thoroughly sift matters and make a complete report to Con gress, so iliat the people can call all guilty parties to account. Poor old Dr. Samuel McDowell,the Salem oilie-seeker who seems destined to end his days in lh? asylum, never hunted aiv office more persistently tuan John Sherman is now after the presi dency. Is thers anything wrong with the Senator's upper story? Alway have a good word for Douglas county, for slus 4eserve3 it. Douglas (W.YTY woolen milL should have a A riOSEER OOSE. In the death of Capt. William Tiche-1 nor, which occurred at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. E. W. McGraw, No. 1132 twenty-first street, SauFran ciscoi.on Wednesday morning, the 27th inst., Oregon loses one of the oldest, most prominent and most worthy rep resentatives of the earliest settlers. Few men in sterling elements of char acter more fitly represented that race. Capt Tichenor's health had been fail ing for the past year, although but few persons except t his more immediate friends and relatives realized that he was in a rapid decline. Capt. Tichenor was a son of Deacon James Tichenor, of tlio First Presby terian church, of Newark, N. J. His mother, Abby lledd en, was the daugh ter of a prominent resident of South Orange avenue. Capt. William Tichenor was born at the northeast corner of Mulberry ami Mechanic streets, Newark, N, J., June 13tb, 1813, being directly descended from the original family of his name, who settled in the lower part of the city, lie was educated in the old Newark academy,, and received the best instruction that could be had there, lie had a ood mind and a 11 - -r- retentive memory, and came out of school with as full a fund of available knowledge as any of his -competitors. When but a small boy he ran away from home and made ono or two voya ges to Europe, in which ho acquired his lovo for the sea. lie was first mate of one of the lirt Mississippi steamboats when but eighteen years of age. He .Biibseuucutlv mm-i-itul uml located in Indiana in 1833. In 1813 ic moved to Illinois, where he cm- braced the Christian faUli. :iml , ...... preached that doctrine on (he same circuit with his old friend, Col. E. D. Baker. In 1848 he was elected state senator from Edgar county, which po sition he resigned in the spring of 1849 and started for California, where he ar rived in September of the same year. Gold having becu discovered in great piantitics ;on the Mary's river, he sought that locality tor Lis hrst held of labor. ; After fair success in the mines, he returned to San Francisco and purchased tho schooner Jacob Rierscm and fitted her out for a cruise on the coast ot ixvver uaiirorma and Mexico. He was away on this expe dition about three months, which was during the winter of '49 and '50. In ths spring of 1851 he was mester of the full-rigged brig Emily Farnham, which sailed between San Francisco and Astoria. Later during the same year he commanded the steamer Sea Gull, one of the first on the route between San Francisco and Portland. He founded the town of Port Orford the same year (1851,) which ho has culled his home ever since. His family landed there May 9tb, 1852, which consisted of a wife aud three children, of which the children survive him. ii- . i- u..- i. .11 ir xiu iost tuu sieuiuer oca uui on jluiuu boldt bar, Jan. 22d, 1852. Her ma chinery broke down while going out, on her way to San Francisco, and the steamer was thrown upon the sands after passing through the worst of seas. He succeeded in saving the lives of all on board, and for his heroic exertions the passengers made him a present of a splendid gold watch which he carried up to the time of his death. After the loss of the Sea Gull, he took charge of the steamer Quickstep, but not having sufficient power to stem the northwest winds she was placed on the southern route, and tho captain took charge of the ship Anson, plying between San Fraucjsco and Astoria In 1851 he was first officer and Coluui bia pilot on the propeller Peyloua. He was afterward on small schooners, and finally, in 180 ", abandoned the sea and settled down at his Iioiik; in Port Or ford. During the Indian wars of 185558 ho was guide for the regulars, being most of the time with the commands of Generals Ord an! Buchanan. He wa3 ejected to the territorial legisla ture three times, aud fleeted joint sen ator from Coo?, Curry and Umpqua in 18G0. He was instrumental in clect tmg Cols. Nesmith and Baker at that sesubij to the U. S. Senate. Captain Ticheuor look I ho warmest interest in everything concerning I he welfare, prosperity and improvement of our young state. Being a gentle man of untiring energy, sound judg ment and superior intelligence, when ho took hold of a project it was very likely to succeed. He was ever upon the alert, watching public measures that would benefit Oaegon, and any thing hurtful to her credit received his prompt emphatic denunciation. He had stored in his memory a fund of historic reminiscences equaled by very few. No man could sit down with him for half an hour without being instructed. Noble and generous, he made many friends. His deeds of charity and acts of kindness will ever be remembered. He died of heart disease, 2?ot a muscle trembled, not a limb moved but jusj. as sweetly as a child going fo sleep, he passed fcway. He leaves a wife and three children to mourn his loss. His three children an Aftna- C. Dart, Williamsport, Pa , Ellen McGraw; of San Francisco, and J. B.

His death will be deeply felt by time who called him father and grandpa; to them it is an irreparable loss, while among hisj neighbors and old Oregonians his name will b long remembered with respect. Statesman. SOXTHEUX PACIFIC IX OttEC.OX. - Replying to questions concerning the plans of the Southern Pacific railroad in Oregon, Vice President Crocker states that the officials of that road haye no plant outlined for the immediate future. All their energies are exerted toward completion of the line over ajid through the Siskiyou mountains. Work on the remaining 500 feet of the tunnel is Itcing pushed with great rapid ity. Not a minute of the twenty-four hours in the day, or the seven days in the week, is lost. Three gangs are at work, changing every eight hours. With reference to the proposed line through Eastern Oregon, he states that surveyors arc still in the fiel l, but they have not yet made sufficient pro gress to enable the directors of the road to formulate plans for a line through that region, if it should be deemed advisable to build there. He og'tin takes occasion to s.ty that tho Southern Pacific has not, lior has it had in contemplation the building of a lino between Astoria and Portlaud. One point, however, spoken of will be .of especial interest, at le ist to residents of tho middle aud upj'cr Will inictte valley, lie says tho railroad officials have-now under consideration a pro ject of smiting the east and wedt branches of the Oregon A: California railroad. The beginning of th con necting link will be at Corvallis, on the west side, but jiiht where connec tion will be made with the cast side road has not been decided on. Con ncctioii will not be mnde immediately, but the statement is in idu that as to its being made at a tini-; not t -r re mote is cii tain. Flcelrie Motlec i'uirrr. 'WcKkcdifiil r.ricw thinks many w.ll be surpiisedx by the stilcmcnt that more thauS.SOO.OOO passengers are carried annually in this country on street ears inooved by electric motors. In Montgomery, Ala., elec tricity i:; used on eleven miles of road, and the cost is reported by the gcu eral manager to be only one-half the cost of horse power. Roads on which electricity takes the place of horses are found in Baltimore, Los Angeles, Port Huron, Detroit, Scranton, Applcton, Wis., and Denver. Electric railways are either in course of construction or under contract in twelve other cities, and in thirty-seven, companies have been formed or other steps taken for the building of such roads. Upon none of the roads now in operation in this countiy, however, is force sup plied by storage batteries attached to the cars. In most cases, power is com municated by an overhead conductor. There is a spirit of hossism among republican leaders that would not be tolerated by democrats. The spectacle of John Sherman presiding at a con vention, securing appointment of com mittees favorable to himself and gen erally lossjng his own endorsement recalls the days when Conk'ing, Cam eron and Logan attempted the third term scheme and is not a pleasant one for the people to contemplate. Mr. ISlaixe is dividing tho atten tion of tho Bti'isli people with Buffalo Bill.

Wbat (be Death of So Many Great Men , Means Are AVe As Nation in Danger. "America is losing its- prominent men very fast," was the remark of a well known Englishman who is now visiting this country, and he was right Sumner, Wilson, Phillips, Washburn, Carpenter, and a host of others have departed, and John A. Logan has just passed away. But has it never occurred to the reader that the cause of the deaths of fhese pub lic men was in every case the same ? And has it occurred to you that Manning, Butler, Blaine, and a host of others are tread in c the osame road ? The great .' American scourge, to- .3 uay, is Kiuney uisease, and it is fry no means confined to public men. Th o u s a n d s of men whom we sec every day have inherited it from amf.iiica'is loss, their parents and do not know it. Innumerable women who are delicate are aniieted with it at this moment, and think it is simply "weak ness." Little children whose kidneys have been injured by cearlet fever are Buffering from it, usually unknown to their parents. Its symptoms are a tired feeling and a desire to sleep ; a pale com plexion; uncertain appetite ; faiutnessat the pit of the stomach; shifting pains, sometimes in the hack, sometimes in the limbs, and again in the head ; plentiful or scanty urine, with the mini on top or a sediment and luiekdust in the bottom ; a burning sensation in passing and nkin hot at times and clammy at others. Any oneofthc.se thing indicate disordered kidneys, which are the first stage of Blight ' disease. They must be checked. Captain (ireenwooil, of the steamer Kanawha, had these troubles in an ag gravated form ; he used Hunt's Remedy aim is in parted iiuattli to-day. Rev. t liarkus I ike, of Waterbury, Conn., was- greatly i educed in the Fame manner and wan " sulleiing severely." He need Hunt's Remedy and w;ih nil -d. Mr.. Alexander I.. NirholM, of I'henix, It. 1., aflor passing throui:h all the 6ufl'er- t ing which any woman capt. ukeemvooo. is ever called upon to endure, was cured by Hunt's Remedy. The son of Cornelius p. Smith of the State Department at Albany, N. Y., was given up to die by no less than four phy sician?, but was lured by Hunt's liem edy. These instances could be prolonged indefinitely. Two things are certain. First Kidney troublep, wliich always end in Briglit'B disease, unless checked, are feartuIU prevalent. -Second They can be cured by using live remedy above named. With these truths in view, why men and women will be so heedless and allow symptoms to run along until they end in agony or death we cannot understand. We certainly advise all to think carefully on this subject, and act without delay. NOTICE.
