Correct The advandced poMtitm which the county board has taken on the bridge and rmblic imnrovement question will meet the approval of most of the citizens of our county. There is no doubt of the wisdom of expending liberal sums on our roads and bridges: the only question., being, where is the money most needed, and how can it be best used for the interests of the people? Drain Echo. Wnu. Pleased.- Linn county grangers are delighted with the operations of the state railway commission. It is to be supposed that they are pleased with the work of the commissioners, since they commend the gov. ernor for his action in appointing Messrs. Slater ani Waggoner to the position. The grangers' approval of the work of the commis sion is generally shared by the people of the state. Fortiand Telegram. A SiVitLAR Accident. A few days since, a daughter of David Stout, who resides near McMmnville, while sewing, met with a painful accident.

In the letter it w as stated he is prostrated with the same disease that carried his wife off, and that there is no hope ol his recovery. Since he returned east of the mountains he has been making his home with Rev. Sam. Driver, at Walla Walla. Sing Anthems. Why our church ser vices are not enlivened by voluntaries and anthems is unanswerable except that we werk so hard that we have not time to "practice," or perhaps it costs' a little more labor to sing those harder pieces than is required to sing Old Hundred, or Iialerma or "How tedious and tasteless the .hours," and this tediousne?s and tastelessness refers to our church singing in a large degree. We have some as good singers in Roseburg as can be found any where for a distance around, hence this growl. We will growl louder next time. Improve your church singing. riANO i u i no. w. II.

The device is significant damage-law, whereby anyone damaged by the of the superiority of the white race oyer the sale of liquor, can recover his damages from Indian, being in the form of a maltesc cross, the seller. Our present license law is as good arrow across a star in center, and over all as a local option law, as it requires a majority tands in full relief a couple ol cross rifles, in- of the voters on a petition, in order to obtain dicating our superiority in the conflict. It bears license to sell . We have a law against selling the inscription "Indian War Veterans. N. V. adulterated drinks. Now these laws will C." set on the face. It is a worthy emblem to be worn by the few Veterans left of the perilous and death staring days. ..-. TEMPER AXCE I ECTFRES. Revive the Philalatheans. Yes re vive that grand old literary society around which lingers so many pleasant memories. that Mrs. Irvin had her leg broken at Wilbur, Those winter evenings spent as we did at one time in Roseburg were of incalculable benefit to the wholo town. Some of the active ones that used to grace those meetings Vi ith their presence are not here now, but some are left, and why we should not have a literary meet ing once a week when the whole public could attend is more than we tan understand. Let us have our 'debates as of yore, speeches, essays, recitations, aud music, both instru mental and vocal "till you can't rest,'' and then we will realize that it pays to cease from chasing the dollar long enough to improve the mind and morals. The training we get in those exercises go to make up the fabric of our future destiny in a large degree. This work is rudimcntal somewhat, and furnishes many a young man and young woman wiih a reserve force, that later on in life will be to them a great blessing. We nominate the fol lowing gentlemen to take it in hands at once and push the work to a successful termination. Hons. J. C. Fullerton, Wr. F. Benjamin, L. F. Lane, S. F. Floed and Prof. Horner.

He is doing much good work for the amendment and is no doubt gaming votes. rcatly reduce the injurious effects of liquor drinking. But the prohis say, these laws are not enforced! Well, why dont you? and if these reasonable laws are so hard to enforce, how can you. expect to enforce a law which deprives mc of my right to buy brandy, for the making of mince-pies? Do you think, the more severe a law, the easier it is enforced? Again, why make an exception by saying, ex cept for medical, mechanical or scientific purposes? Is that not a big hole to crawl out for a drunkard, the very person that should be looked after? Again why does not the amend ment forbid the buying of liquor? What will prevent the drunkard from sending to Califor nia for a keg of liquor and sharing the same Mrs. Skelton a German lady who has been wIth his ciomrades' W loaning the same?

The following notice is from, the Oregon Sentinel and the subject of the sketch was the sister of Hon. Jas. D. Burnett of . Douglas county. Martha Montgomery Burnette was born in Crawford county, Missouri, near St. Louis. reb. 26, 1S32, and passed her life from youth to womanhood in Wright county, not far dis tant from the place of her ., nativity.

In April, IS7, Mr. and Mrs. Hanley removed to Jackson county and settled on a farm near Jacksonville. Here nine children were born to them, three of them, two daughters and a son, dying within a few weeks of each other in the year 1866 a bereavement that was lifelong in its duration to the tender mother's heart. Three years since Mrs. Ilanlcy's health became seriously impaired with bron; chial affection; which soon developed a pul-i monary tendency. This so seriously alarmed her family that she was prevailed upon to spend the following winter in Los Angeles Calitornia, but deriving no permanent bene ficial results from the change, the devoted wife returned to her home and loved ones, where she gradually declined in health. July Sth, of this year, she was baptised into the Presbyterian church, following an oil repeated desire to become a communicant of that church, from which she had been prevented by Various circumstances. Oct. 14, 1007, she passed peacefully away in the full assur ance of the christian faith, and surrounded by her children, all of whom were with her but her son Edward, who is at present at Burns, Grant County.

SALE lOXTHE LAKES - A Rem. Estate Boom Story. Capt. E. W. Spencer, who returned a few days ago from California, brings the latest story of the Los Angeles real estate boom, which he vouches for as true. An eastern tourist, who was visiting the city of the angels about a year ago, had to cut his trip short on account of an important business summons from home; so he Invested in a corner lot, $700, which he had intended to spend for hotel bills, railroad fare, etc. He did it just or a "flyer," not caring whether he ever made a cent or not. It was that much saved anyhow. From lime to time he heard of the famous boom, but did not have enough interest in the matter to in quire the value of his holding. About three weeks ago he came to Los Angeles to finish his visit begun twelve months before. The real estate man from whom he bought the lot wanted to take a look at it first . As they rode out in the cable car, the tourist made up his mind to ask $3500 for the properly five times as much as he paid feeling assured tha the price would be beat down.
