This issue of The Review is pre
sented to our readers in the interest of
Douglas county. It baa been our
' earnest endeavor to giv a brief,, yet
comprehunsive, outline of the various
resources of the country, together with
its enterprise of note, its present needs
and future outlook. With the limited
time at our disposal, and a press of other
duties, it has been impossible to do the
subject justice, and We em but regard
this issue as a ground woik for mpre-
faithful work in the future. The Re
view believes ia the glorious climate,
productive soil and wonderful resources
of Douslas county, and having reason
for the faith that is within us, proposes
.to advertise the county in a thorough
and prac.ticul manner, lo this encl it
inviuTi the co-operation of all, and it is
necesary that the public take an in
tsrest in the matter. The great need
"of Douglas county is people, men of en
terprise and determination to develop
the resources, found lactones, bore into
the e.trth and lay bare its mineral
wealth, ami to engage in all tbebusiness

CLEVELAND'S ADKISISTRATIOX.
The administration of President
Cleveland commands the respect and
confidence of the people regardless of
political prejudices. It has been a
strong administration from the first,
and it 13 safe to say that no president
or cabinet ever before gave so much
personal attention to the minor and
routine duties of their offices, but this
was made necessary by the numerous
abuses which were allowed to grow up
iters concerning these dut.es un
der the Republican administrations.
It was close application and overwork
in the treasury department that
brought about the death of the late
secretary, Daniel 3Ianning, while Mr.
Whitney, as secretary of the navy, has
by untiring labor acquired an accurate
knowledge of all the details of his de
partment, and from the number of Mr.
Lamar's decisions in the land depart
ment, it is certain that he has found
the duties of his position very labor
ious, the demands upon Mr. Vilas have
found him equally as industrious and
pains taking as his colleagues, while
the other departments of the govern
ment have likewise received the per
sonal attention in a marked degree of
their chiefs.
. There has been no scandal connected
with any of the officers of the general
government, the rediculou attempt of
that gigantic monopoly, the Bell tele
phone Co., to besmirch the character
of Atto'mey General Garland having
signally failed and been abandoned.
The public affairs hae been conducted
solely with regard to the interest or
the people and an honest purpose to
enforce and abide by the law. It is
this confidence in thy" thorough hon
esty or xur. uieveiania administration,
the knowledge that he holds sacred
his own words that "pnblic office is a
public trust," and no less than this,
the belief that he has the supreme
courage of his convictions, that give
him a hold .upon the people not
equalled ince tho days of Jackson.
The difficulties attending upon the
administration of public affairs have
been great. The senate still in the
control of the Republicans has sought
to throw every obstacle in the way,
and a monopolistic opposition press
has endeavored in every manner to
shake the confidence of the people in
their chosen chief magistrate. But
these difficulties have been met go
calmly by the president, his every act
has bourne the impress of honest
thought, and every word lias been
warm from his conscience that the con
fidence of ihe people has grown and
expanded in the man who has always
proven himself, whether as sheriff,
mayor, governor or president, equal to
the duties of his office, faithful in
the discharge of a public trust under
all circumstances.
The administration has marked the
policy of the Democracy. Extrava
gant appropriations can gain no favor,
the public land granted in million of
acres to railroad corporations, have
been restored to the ieople wherever
those grants have been unearned, and
the surplus in the treasury, which
threatens a general paralysis of busi
ness, is to be remedied in the only
practical manner, by reducing the tax
ation that puts it there, by leaving, in
other words, the surplus in the pocket
of the man that earned it. These
general issues, with the pledge of hon
est government are to be the slogan of
the democracy in ,the campaign of this
yean, and The Review predicts the
triumphant endorsement of Mr. Cleve
land by the people at the polls.

A Street Education.
"An education received on the street
corner is usually the most worthless
that a boy or girl can receive. That
class of boys that have so much time
to louf prove as a rule an intolerable
nuisance to the store in which they
have occasion to spend much of their
time. But the merchant who deals
with the family endures this rather
than lose trade; this is one reason why
so many boys are allowed to loaf
about. There is novelty on the street
corner; therefore the boy would rather
be there than in school where he may
have a better opportunity to make a
man of himself. Usually the parents
of thcje children enquire why they do
i jt like to go to school. Break your
boys from loafing by keeping them
at home about your .firesides in
stead of the stove oi the grocery
store. Keep them at home in the day
time; then they will soon get a busi
ness idea of life, and they will be bet
ter subject to receive an education.
An education is the greatest instru
ment for good or evil according to who
receives it; and it only proves a weapon
with' which a bad boy or man can do
greatest evil. Get your boy right and
he will seek an education. Many par
ents who may read this would by care
ful inquiry be surprised to learn that
their own children associate with boys
who at the depot and other public places
yell at and seek to insult citizens whose
business may unfortunately necessitate
them to pass that way.
Mr. Blaine in 1871, whde a mem
ber of the lower house of Congress, ad
vocated a repeal of the duties on salt
and coal. Therefore Blaine is a free
trader. Seel Nearly all the republi
cans in the country are in favor of put
ting sugar on the free list Therefore
nearly all the republicans in the country
are free trade f. Seel Very many
republicaiis in f.ivor of putting rice,
tobacco and tot ton on the free list
Therefore very many republicans in
and out of Con'(iws are free traders.

mental music and a recitation by Miss
Edith Russell, Prof. T. Van Scoy, of
Willamette 1 University, delivered a
very profitable lecture before the Insti

remarks on this occasion were duly ap
preciated.
THURSDAY.-
The morning session opened with a
few remarks on Penmanship by J. B.
Horner,

"come in" since the first days work
and much interest is manifested.

Oakland public school, lectured on
reading. He favors teaching the pu
pil to read as he would speak.

. . ., ti .
intervals caused considers oie mern
ment
An excellent musical programme was
carried out at the opening of the even
ing session after which Dr. Thomas
Condon, professor of Natural History
m the State University, lectured on
"The roses, the known and the unknown,
like the other lectures, this was
well received. The Dr. is preparing a
work on the geology of Oregon of
which subject he knows more than any
other living man.
After the District Institute adjourned

stitute with T. O. Hutchinson, hair

GENERAL EEMAEK8.
The hospitality shown by the people of
Oakland will long be remembered by
the teachers, Ihe State Superinten
dent K B. McElroy presided during
the day sessions and Superintendent
G. T. Russell during the evening ses
siona. The order was good through
out
Owing to the fact that diphtheria
was threatening the various towns of
the county, it was with much difficulty
that the committee on music secured
the promise of musical talent In this
emergency the committee of which the
writer wasa member, urged upon Supei
inlendent Russell's family to furnifh
all the music that circumstance would
allow. It was with a sense of modesty
that they hesitated to have their names
appear so often on the programme; but
their music was first class throughout;
and the musical attainments of these
young ladies reflect great credit on
their mother who taught them.

A year agopresident Cleveland ad
dressed a Mei?age to Congress. In it
he called atw&ition to the heavy excess
of; expenditures over revenues and
warned Codgrm that if the system of
over-tax&iow was continued we should
soon lyr "confronted with a vast quan
tity money, fcha circulating medium
ofXue people, boarded in the Treasury
fihea. it should be in their hands, or
drawn into wasteful public extrava
gance with all the corrupting national
demoralization. which follows in its
train." '
The recommendations of the Presi
dent in view of this evil of an idle and
demoralizing surolus were as follows:
I recommend that the increasing ami
unnecessary surplus of national income
annually accumulating be released
to the . people. by an amend
ment to our re veil ue laws which shall
cheapen the price of the necessaries of
life and give freer entrance to such
imported materials as by American
labor may be manufactured into mark
etable commodities.
Every opponent " ot the President
when this Message was made public
cried out ; "Platitudes! Platitudes!"
and charged that Mr. Cleveland had
dodged" the issue by neglecting to ray
in detail just what he proposed should
be done in the way of revenue reform.

thoroughly reviews the situation and
maps out such a tariff policy as Demo

to support and as Congress may well
embody into a law.
Still the Tribune, as the organ of
the faultfinding Republicans, says:
If the President had gone through
the tariff schedules and pointed out
where reductions should be made he
-might be credited with presenting a
"practical, common-sense and business

Of course, if the President had gone

would have sent to Congress not a

True, the surplus would not be in
the treasury, but it would be in the
pockets of the "jobbers," who precipi
tated that bill upon Cleveland at the
short session as they did upon Arthur,
and both men vetoed the bill as the
only remedy against fraud, and they
did right Oregon will net los one
dollar for their rivers and harbors, but
will in the long run actually receive
more, because the public works will
get the money now, and not these cormorants.

The government had last year a sur
plus revenue of $1 13,000,000. It will
have this year a surplus of $140,000,-000.
This revenue is produce! by a tariff.
A tariff is a tax. The surplus revenue
is therefore produced by a surplus tar
iff, or a tariff in excess of the Govern
ment's needs. To stop the surplus
revenue we must abolish the surplus
taxes.
But there is also an excess of tariff
beyond what is needed for protection
to American industries. The average :
rate on dutiable imports under the
tariff of 1816-'20 seventy years ago,
when the infant industries were young
was 30 per cent Under the tariff

The war taritt of lobd averaged but
32.62 per cent. The increased and
prolonged war tariff last year averaged
37 per cent Thirty per cent of this is
unnecessary either for revenue or protection,
Surplus protection therefore produces
surplus revenue. There must be no
tariff for surplus and no surplus of

The following shows that Mississippi
is ahead of Oregon on the line of do
ing good and true work on the Agri
cultural line. Oregon will go to the
front however just as soon as the in

time this year. .
When Gen. Lee, the President of
the Mississippi Agricultural College
at Starkille, was asked the other day
why it is so successful he replied:
"W e have never lost sight of the pur
pose for which we were fouuded. On
the contrary, we have always steadily
pursued it Organized as an agricul
tural college, we have always been
one. Everything we bavo done has
been done with an eye looking to the
improvement of the agricultural com
munity. . We have taught practical
farming. Uur experiments nave been
of a practical nature, and the farmer,
at first disposed to resent the insinua
tion that his children conld be taught
how to make land productive ; better
here than at home, has about come
round, and now comes here himself
with his troubles. We get inquiries
every day from farmers in regard to
farm matters, all of which are prompt
ly answered." Nashville Advocate.
The Plaindeater ulkaot our "Floei
of ttxlent" from which we draw for The
Review. This"Floed of talent" costs
us from 25 to $30 per week, and if
Bro. Benjamin would spend that much
money for brains every week for the
Plaindealer, quite likely there would
be a noticeable improvement in his
paper. The wisest conclusion we have
yet reached is, that there is at least a
few things in this world that we do
not know, and the intelligent demand
of our patrons is that we buy it, which
we are doing, and find it a profitable
investment
STATE AFFAIRS.
The present Democratic administra
tion of the state government will tend
greatly to strengthen the party in Ore
gon in the approaching elections.
uov. jrennoyer is proving nimsett a
fearless, careful and upright public offi
cial, as be proved himself a man of
sterling worth and strict' probity in
private life. There is an economy
practiced in all the various depart
ments of the state that is extremely
gratifying to the people in contrast
with the era of extravagance in vogue
during the years of Republican state
and national supremacy.
The affairs of the penitentiary un
der the supervision of Robert Clow are
conducted in a manner to avoid the
usual scandal connected with former

with economy and to the satisfaction
of the tax payers, while Dr. Harry
Lane as superintendent of the asylum
has made retrenchment in expenditures
ranging from $500 to $1300 per month,
and lurnished the unfortunate insane

food than ever before. !
ihe board of railroad commissioners
consisting of Hon. J. H. Slater and
Hon. Geo. Waggoner; appointees of

rate ever given in this city, and con
sisting of delicious oyster soup, roast
turkey, boiled ham, Balads, celery, coffee,
tea and many and splendid varieties of

cordance with old-fashioned southern
hospitality of the holidays, were under
Mr. Johnston's charge up-stairs, and
were enjoyed by those who wished.
- Mrs. Johnston was the recipient of
an elegant and expensive set of silver
ware, the gift of the assembled guests,
and of a fine China dinner set the gift

TO OUR PATRONS.
We respectfully call your attention to
Ackers English Prepara
tions
For which we have had the sole agency for
Roseburg for a long time . We know them
to possess superior merits and to be honert
goods. Our experience has convinced us that
they are all they claim to be. For all Throat
and Lung Trouble Akers English Remedy is
the standard medicine. While Akers Dys
pepsia 1 ablets are beyond all dpuot superior
to any remedy for Dyspepsia or any ailments
arising from a disarranged stomach. They
are a sure cure and we guarantee them, lie
low Mrs. David Moore simply voices the uni
versal verdict of our customers.
To The PeorLE Of Roseburc
I know by personal observation that Ackers
English Remedy for coughs is potent and
safe, both it and Ackers Dyspepsia Tablets I
have taken myself and administered tbem to
others always with unvarying success, both
ought to be in every house in this town.
Mrs. David Mooee,
We could add many testimonials like the
following to the efticacv of
Ackers islooa Elixir.
I have deriveJ sp much decided benefit by
taking Ackers lilood hlixir that I unhesita
tincly endorse it as a medicine of unusual relia
bilily. I urge all who may be afflicted with
disorders of the blood to give this most excel
lent remedy a fair trial because I am sure af
ter doing so they will corroberate this state
ment of mine, and thank me for making it,
JAS. A. STERLING,
County Assessor,
Ackers Baby Soother.

sell them upon a positive guarantee that they
will do just what is represented. e wui re

The prosperity of a country depends
greatly upon its roads. In this regard,
the enort8 put forward by the proper
authorities of Douglas county in the
past few years is worthy of note and
praise. Probably s no connty in the
state contains so many streams and
water courses demanding bridges as
does Douglas county, in order to give
proper facilities to the people for reach-
in z tradinz points. A spirit of p
cress in this direction "can be noted
generally throughout all the commu
nities of the county, and the county
judge and commissioners are now com
mended whenever they undertake any
work of the kind,' when a few years
since there was considerable opposition
to any progress in this line. An al
most complete system of bridges have
been tarown across the Ualapooia ana
Elk creek and the minor streams of the
northern end of the county. These re
marks are equally applicable to the
southern section, while the South Ump
qua at Koseburg, and eight miles south
has been bridged with substantial
structures costinz some $12,000 each.
The contract is also let for the build
ing of a fine cantilever steel bridge
across the North Umpqua five miles
north of Roseburg at a cost of $45,000,
and the same stream is being bridged
in Mt. Scott precinct at a cost of $4,-
From these, and other indications,
it is certain that 'Douglas county ia to
have all the facilities of travel to meet
the demands of a great, growing and
prosperous territory.
At the meeting of the Central Com
mittee of the Prohibition party for
Douglas county held at the Court house
January 4, 1888, the following resolu
tion was unanimously adopted.
Resolved, That the thanks of this
committee be tendered the Plaindealer
and Review for free publicatfon of
notices calling together the Central
Committee. 0. A. Sehlbrede,
Secretary.
