electors of the oounty they represent. .
The Republican voters of the state,

THE DEMOCBATIC STATE COXVE.VTIOM.
The state Democratic convention is
hereby celled to meet at Dalles City, on
Thursday, the 17th of April next, at 10
o'clock a. M., for the purpose of nominat
ing candidates for th6 following effices:
Judge of the supreme court, three presi
dential electors, representative in the
lower house of congress and district
officers for the several judicial districts,
and to select six delegates to the national
Democratic convention, and generally to
to do such other busines as may of nght
come before such convention.
The committee deem it fitting to pre
sent to the Democratic voters of the state
the following consideratiens:
We see approaching an election of
most vital import to our commonwealth
in all its interests, both public and pri
vate. Deeming honesty the best iwlioy, and
in striking contrast with the course of
the opposition party, we have named an
early dayior tne assembling oi tne state
convention. Our nrinciplea as a party
will then )Q enunciated, and our candi
dates placed in the field subject to the
approval or consideration of the body
politic.
The variance in the vote of this state
during the past few years, and 'especially
the very closo contest in the presidential
election of 1880, gives us much hope that,
notwithstanding onr present minority,
with harmony in our ranks, and a well
directed exertion of our strength, we
shall carry off the palm of victory. But
to insure this end it is imperative that all
Democrats should contribute their undi
vided support and hearty co-operation,
not only in the aotual canvass but in its
very initiation the county primaries.
"We do not presume to trespass upon the
Srecincts of our popular convention, but
o earnestly invoke all members of our
party to put aside past differences and
personal antagonisms, to unite in har
monious action in the various primaries
and to send full delegations of represen
tative men to attend the state convention.
We have deemed it fitting to reduce the
number of delegates, in the hope of secur
ing the personal attendance of those to
be chosen. We especially recommend
the formation of local clubs, where prac
ticable, throughout the state.
Believing that the success of the De
mocracy is the welfare of the people, we
cordially invite all persons, regardless of
Dast political affiliations, who favor sim
plicity, economy and frugality in the ad
ministration of public affairs to unite
with us.

The Death of a Great Singer.
Madame Anna Bishop died in New
York city on the 19th tilt. Mme Bish
op made her debut inHer Majesty'a
Theatre, London, in 1839, she being
twenty-five years old at the time. She
sang Kossini's music In front of
her -was a discriminating audience.
On the stage were Mario, Lablache,
Bnbina, Garcia, Grisi, Persiani, Tam
burini and Thalberg. Both before
and behind the footlights she "was
feted and caressed for her instantane
ous victory. She had received the
careful training of. years to bring her
to that point. Her father, Biviere,
understood his- treasure and spared
nothing in order to fit her for her
proper sphere. She was thoroughly
versed in Handel, Haydn, Mozart and
Beethoven before that eventful night
Her husband, Sir Henry Bishop, iras
professor of musio in the university
of Oxford, She -was in a congenial
oirole.
The successful debutante mads a
triumphal first artistic tour on the
continent Jenny Lind was then in
gawer. Mme. Bishop did not shun
weden on that account She went
to Stockholm and captured Jenny
land's stronghold. She sang all over
Xiurope a .uanifin daiiaa at Copen
hagen, the Swedish national airs at
Stockholm, in Russian before the
Czar's court, in German at Vienna and
-Berlin, in Italian at Florence, in
French at Paris, and in her own
native tongue in London.
Then Mme. Bishop looked across
the sea in 1874. A grand reception
awaited her. She went to Mexico
and California, and still west to Aus
tralia; thence to South America,
singing in the small republics, closing
at Bio Janeiro, in big Brazil. She re
turned to England and sang Rossini's
"Stabat Mater" to 38,000 people in
the Crystal Palace. Again she made
an American tour extending over four
years. At its end she went to the
Sandwich Islands, and from there she
sailed for Hong Kong, but was ship-
wreoked on a barren island. From
this island in a boat twenty-two feet
long Mme. Bishop, with twenty-one
otner persons, set out for one of the
Mariana Islands, 1,400 miles away.
She left two pictures of thi3 trip
one a painting ot the crowded boat in
a heavy swell, the other the arrival
on the island of destination and the
welcome by the inhabitants. Mme.
Bishop lost all her property on that
occasion.
The great singer had a love for end
less travel; she was moving all her
life and was probably the greatest
woman traveler known. She made an
Asiatic tour, ending it in Australia in
1868; then back to England. In May.
1875, she sang in Steinway Hall, in
New York, previous to a farewell tour
around the world, in which she visit
ed South Africa. In all her travels
she must have sung to millions of
people. No language was too difficult
for her to master. In Tartary she
sang the national airs of the country.
She sang to every audience in its own
tongue. Her voice was a rare one. In
undeviating purity of intonation and
unfailing perfection of execution,
Mme. Bishop has not been surpassed.
Up to the last it preserved in a great
degree its quality. She bore her sev
enty years with ease and was cheerful
to the end.

When von come to think of It, It ia not
odd that literary people prefer a pipe to a
cbjar. It la handier to smoke when they
are writingr. ana ever bo maca aeaaer.
And then It give3 them the true essence
and flavor of the tobacco.
The most f astldioos smokers amonfr all
nations and all classes of men agree that
the tobacco grown on the Golden Tobacco
Belt of North Carolina ia the most delic
ious and refined in the world. JJghter
tfT Turkish, more fragrant than Havana,
freer from nitrates and nicotine than any
other, It is Jost what the conuoisseur
praises and the habitual amoker demands.
The very choicest tobacco grown
on this Belt is bought by Black

Gentlemen; Like most of my profession, I
am cautious about pinning my- fai h to any
new medicine or curative agent. But your
BENSON'S CAPCINE POROUS PLASTER,
ha a broken through the barkers and won. its
way to my good opinion. My attention was
first called to it soma eight months ago by a
patient of mino Although 1 w well ac
quainted with the superior excellence of your
other plaster and anti'eplic dressing, made
especially for tho profession, the Benson s
was comparatively new to me. I had heard,
however, of its merits as a remedy, in cases
of Lame Back, Local Rheumatism, Neural
gia. Congestion of the Bronchial Tubes and
Lungs. Dyspepsia, Torpid Liver and tho like
affections, and havo since begun to experi
ment with it personally. I find BENSON'S
OAPCINE PLASTKRan exceptionally clean
ly planter to me. and rapid in its action.
Many teats of its qutditie?, msdo inmy own
family and among my patients have convinc
ed me that there is no single article so valu
able for popular use, nor so helpful in tho
diseases I have named.
Should you desire to do xo, you may use my
name to that effect
Very truly yours,
