County fchr-uld .siibscrile L-t the Review. It
is taking the lead.
A Pioneer. Jesse Applegate L. L. D.
was in ou& city a few days this week on busi
ness. The old gentleman is becoming quite
frail. He is truly a pioneer, and should be
revered for the good he has rendered our beau
tiful Oregon.
MARRIED. Frm an Iowa paper we glean
the fact that Walter Swartzlaneler and Miss
Lucy Foresman were married an Tipton Iowa
on August 13th. Waiter has mr.ny friends in
Roseburg who w ish him and his bride a long,
happy and prosperous union.
He Shot. Tuesday night T. Farquar shot
four times at some petty thieves who was try
ing to get his melons and fruit. This is about
the third time he has burned powder at them.
A stray bupet will hit some one of them yet if
they do not stop their depredations.
, A Veteran Schoolmaster. Professor
J. G. Gilbert, now Principal of the Santiani
Academy located at Lebanon was in attendance
at the M. E. Conference last week. Prof.
Gilbert is a teacher of thirty-three years exper
ience. Many of our old pioneers will remem
ber hini as the man who built in Green's valley
the first frame school house in Douglas county,
and taught the first school in the building.
The Prof, also circulated the petition for school
District No. I in our county.

Fraternal. A very fraternal episode oc
curred at the M. E. Church last Saturday.
Kev. Wolf has been Secretary of the Confer
ence for ten consecutive years, and the mem
Ijers of that body presented the reverend gen
tleman with a purse filled with shining dust.
The gentleman was overcome, and only re
sponded with tears of thankfulness. Brotht r
.Sails, taking in the situation, said: "Thank
God for MethodU preachers." Bro. W. D.
Nichols made the presentation speech.
. Fine Monuments. Mr. J. A. Cardwell,
of Jacksonville, general agent for the Detroit
Uronze Co. has sold this week a splendid fam
ily monument to Hans Weaver for $750. This
is the finest m jnument, we believe, in the
County. I). C. McClallen has purchased a
family monument for $460. Thos. Grisdale
has ordered a nice monument for E. C. Dry
and M. Dyer ordered a tine one for his wife.
These are made uf the fine bronze material,
do not rust, and are for superior to marble.
" ' -'-
The A. O. U. W. Mr. J. J. Upchurch'
of Missouri, known as Father Upchurch, the
founder of the Ancient Order of United Work
men, arrived in Rostburg Wednesday cening.
A large crowd gathered at the Court House at
a timely hour and Mr. Upchurch was intro
duced by E. G. liursh. lie made a pleasant
speech in the interest of the Order and was
followed by lien. G. H. Dcrris, of Eugene
City, Grand Master Workman, of Oregon.
The Y. D. I 'and furnished superior music
during the evening and a sumptuous supper
was served to members and invited guests at
the McClallen House.
, "THE Ua.ni Stand. About $220 has been
pledged to the Hand Stand Fund from all
sources. Some has not yet been paid in
and we request all parties to make payment
immediately. Messrs. Taylor, Malauscna and
Frazer have been appointed building commitec
oy the Bind and designs secured. Messrs
Mrdausen.i an.'. Clements will build the edit
rice which is sufficient guarantee of an elegant
structure. The site a little in front and south
of the Court House, w hetc the old croquet
ground was. is the general favorite and should
be chosen. The lumber will be ordered to-dav
and work commenced immediately.
The California & Oregon Railroad.
It is stated in San Francisco on good author
isy that orders have been issued by the Cen
tral Pacific railroad company to engineers and
bridge builders to proceed with the immediate
. extension of the California and Oregon rail
road to a connection with the Oregon & Cali
fornia railroad. The gap is about 125 miles.
Some sections cf the road are estimated to
- cost over $100,000 a mile to construct. It is
further stated .that the Central Pacific has been
induced to, complete this road in order to re
cover at least the Portland and northwest
trade, which California lost through the open
ing of the Northern Pacific.
Wedding. Aug. the 26th at the residence
of Mr. II . Wcatl edy, near Scottburg by Henry
Wade Justice Peace, Mr. Jay " Shcpard and
Mrs. Pearlc M. Neyve both of Douglas, Co.
Eight o'clock in the evening was the hour fixed
for the neptuals. After some moments of sus
pe nse, the bride and grocm made their ap
pearance, and Mr. Wade in his usual pleasant
andimpressive manner joined the happy cou-
- pie in the bonds of wedlock. The bride was
attired in a lovely dress beautifully trimmed.
The bridegroom was attired in black coat and
pants and white vest. They were indeed a
happy looking couple. Immediately after the
ceremony and congratulations of friends, the
company partook of a sumptuous supper which
was prepared by Mrs. H. Weatherly, who has
the faculty" and taste of getting up a grand
weddinc supper. The affair was a most pleas
ant one, and we wish the groom and his wife
a happy journey down life's stream of time,
and may their path through the rugged scenes
of life's busy paths be strewn with flowers,
arvd a blissful future go with thorn.

RIVER.
On Angust 21st, theOoctor, Gen. Caukin
and your correspondent, with others, took
seats in the four-horse stage at Drain for a
visit to the Coast. WTiile there we saw many
things which I have thought may interest your
readers, and hence this long letter.
This route to Coos Bay is so popular that
the stage was crowded, and I imagine that at
first every one of us felt very much like growl
ing a little, but the company was so genial
that we forgot our discomfort in the pleasure
of social chat and cenial raillery. The General
was our commander-in-chief and was nobly
supported by his aids, Messrs. Ricker and
Spencer. The Doctor had neglected to feed
his tape-worm that morning, and therefore did
not take a very active part in the conversa
tion. I shall not endeavor to outline our talk,
but may say that time sped so rapidly that we
were surprised to find ourselves in front of Mr.
McGuire's hotel at Elkton, just in time for an
excellent dinner. At this place we were cor
dially greeted by our friends - Beckley and
Stark, whose store, filled with customers,
seemed to indicate thafhard times" are pass
ing away. The grist mill was running and
turning out just as good flour as can be had
anywhere. But we could not tarry long, and
were soon hurrying on our way, with the lively
chat renewed. It was somewhat more cheer
ful now, for the Doctor had fed his tape
worm (both necessities and luxuries), and
joined heartily in the running fire of talk.
Again time speed too quickly and brought us
to Scottsburg, w here each wished heartily for
a dual personality, in order that he might en
joy the good things of both hotels. But we
compromised by dividing our party, some
staying with our friend Billy Patterson (he
that was struck), and some with our friend P.
P. Palmer. ; After comparing notes on the
steamer, each boasted of having had the best
supper, which convinced me that we were all
treated better than our deserts.
If any one can find a more beautiful'and ro
mantic river than the Umpqua, from Scotts
burg to Gardiner, I should like to see it. We
were sorry to learn that the genial skipper,
Capt. Cornwall, was confined to his bed with
that highly interesting ailment, the measles,
and were only consoled for his absence by
finding in his place as commander of the Juno,
that hail-fetlow-well-met, Capt. Henry Wade.
Capt. Wade took us to his excellent hotel,
where we were well-fed and furnished with
comfortable beds.
On Saturday we went to Winchester Bay,
anil camped near the residence of our old
friend John Patterson, who knows just how to
make pleasure-seekers enjoy themselves. He
furnished us a good boat, and the fishes suf
fered from our depredations. We went on a
crab-spearing expedition, andconfidentially,
1 must remark mat it was fine sport to see tne
Doctor rise gracefully from his recumbent atti
tude when a large crab in the bottom of the
boat seized a portion of his .pantaloons in his
monstrous claws.
On Monday we went to South Ten Mile
Lake, where we remained two days near the
cabin of a white-haired old hunter and trap
per, who goes down to the beach every morn
ing to meet the stage, in hope of getting a let
ter from loved ones in a far away eastern
State, bidding him to come home and end his
days among grandchildren and friends. Some
morning our friend Jarvis will miss his tall fig
ure from its accussomtd place on the wet
sands, and it wij.l be found cold and lifeless
upun its lonely couch, from whence the weary
spirit will have "gone home" to rest.
At the lake we clamber into canoes, placed
at our disposal by the kindness of "Indian
Roberts," a Coos Bay Indian, who treated us
royally because we were friends of Capt. A.
W. Reed of Gardiner, who had kindly given
us the necessary credentials. Here let me re
mark that the General is a success as the
skipper of a schooner-rigged canoe, by which I
mean that if the lake is quiet, no wind stirring,
with a good oar and Dr. K. to "trim ship," he
can go a mile in two hours and land the" boat
on the other side of the lake with less than two
feet of water m the hold; I have only one
fault t find with his seamanship, and that is,
he insisted that we should have all the items
of "fisherman's luck." I desire also to testify
that the Doctor did catch a fish about four or
five inches long, I can prove it by the General.
Two days well spent in genuine pleasure in
cluding the pleasant task of finding enough
provisions for the Doctor's tape worm, and
we return to Gardner about which place I
wish to say, that there is not on the Pacific
coast, a livelier town or one . in which more
prosperous business enterprises are conducted.
The-mill and lumber company under the direc
tion of Mr. Jewett, the canning factory under
the control of Capt. A. W. Reed, both of
which furnish constant employment to large
numbers of men, are a source of pride to our
county, and worthy of all the prosperity they
can bring to their stockholders.
Another feature, worthy of mention, is the
beauty of the homes in this little seaside town.
They have taken pains to beautify their homes
and surroundings. Among these, I doted es
pecially those of Capt. J. B. Leeds, Capt.
Reed, Capt. Hinsdale and Mr. Jewett. Oth
er portions of Douglas county need such men ;
to render beautiful and refined, our. farm yards
and village homes. -
But space forbids that I should continue.
Before concluding, I desire for myself and
friends to express our obligations to Messrs.
Reed, McKenzie and others, for special cour
tesies received during our visit. With a prom
ise of more, next week. Casaraltan.

That Dirty Dandruff.
Dandruff is dirty and disagreeable in
every way. It'fioils the clothing continually
and is accomplished by a hardly less anuoy
ing sensation of itching. The scalp is diseas

oughly adapted to this trouble aB Parker's
Hair Balsam. It cleanses and heais the
scalp, stops the falling hair and restores its
original softness, gloss and color. Is not
oily, highly perfumed, an elegant dressing.
Very economical, as only a small occasional
application keeps the hair in perfect condi- j

What an Vnprrjtulicetl Ttijcpayer Has
Say About Grant" l'as.
to
Editor Review: As a citizen of Jose
phine county, I have taken some little interest
an trying to find out the straight of this matter
about selecting the site of county buildings.
In the first place, Grant's Pass was not jny
choice for the county seat and therefore I did
not vote for it. , The election, however was a
fair one and regularly conducted, and "Grant's
Pass," not "the town of Grant's Pass," was
the successful candidate. There is no candid
man in Josephine county that will say that
Bourne's, Willis', or any body else's addition
or survey of said town was ever discussed be
fore the election. The fact is, the plain, sen
sible men not lawyers nor speculators in
speaking of Grant's Pass understood it to in
clude all that settlement that grew up around
and about the old stage station, including all
the business houses within a range of a mile or
so. Nobody voted for any particular place or
pot in Kerbyville, Wildcrville or Grant's
Pass; let alone locating it on a particular block
in a portion of Mr. Bourne's site, which other
wise would always be a keepsake in the hands
of real estate agents. The selection of the
ground for the court house and jail belongs
entirely to the County Judge and Commission
ers, and nobody but hair-splitting lawyers and
mischief-making speculators have cheek
enough to contend to the contrary. We have
sense enough to know that children called
twins are not born at exactly the same time,
but they are twins all the same and generally
belong to the same family. If any portion of
this little community has any superiority over
another it would be the old station, where
there was a store, hotel, blacksmith shop, post
office, (called Grant's Pass long ago, before
Oregon ever knew a railroad, and perhaps be
fore the British lion ever found out that Johna
than Bourne, Jr., was one of its cubs, or be
fore the Courier crowd ever thought that Sol.
Abraham was sharp enough to capture a
whole county court). I repeat I have tried to
find out the merits in this matter and find that
there "ain't any merits" about it. The county
court was compelled to have done as it did do,
or its officers would have been false to their
oaths. I have read Mr. Bourne's letter to the
County Board, wherein he offers a block' of
land and $500 if they would locate the build
ings upon his part of Grant's Pass. In this he
did not claim that his survey was the only one
to be considered. Then he cajoled, after
wards resorted to threats and followed it all
up with a law-suit, to be succeeded with a
grand finale of a fizzle. Mr. Abraham's offer
was four times as munificent, and as a mere
matter of sound business policy, was accepted.
In this connection we cannot but suggest that
Mr. "Fair Play" has bejen wretchedly imposed
upon as to Mr. Abraham's responsibility
probably for, the purpose of identifying him.
His representations upon this point is con
tradicted by the records of Josephine county.
Mr. Abraham did not deal in mere paper, but
in cash gold money that jingles: and in sol
emn deetls of conveyances that speak in no
uncertain words. It has taken your corre
spondent one day to find this all out, and as it
is a matter of official record, I will give "Fair
Play," "Justice" and the Courier from now on
until the crack of eloom to refute it. Before
doing so they will take a trip to that "Bourne"
whence ho traveler returns. So, then, I say,
ta-ta, vale. Tax-Payer.

" The Sanrt tty oftha Sabbath.
1 '
To the Members of the Oregon Con
ference, Dear Brethren: Your committee on the
sanctity of the Sabbath, beg leave to submit
the following report.
The Sabbath is a divinely appointed and
holy institution, designed first, to. commemo
rate the rest of God from his labor after a fin
ished creation.
Second, as a gracious and merciful provision
both to man and beast. . The sanctity of this
holy day has been stamped with Divine Au
thority, not only in the example of the Al
mighty Creator, resting from his labor, but
by positive statutory enactment in the giving
of the law upon Sinai. It was there amid the
smoke and thunderings and lightening of that
grand and awful occasion, that the Lord Jeho
vah uttered forth the mighty words, "Remem
ber the Sabbath day to keep it holy."
From that time forth it was to be observed
as an everlasting statute in Israel, or down to
the coming of the Prince of Peace. For the
law having a shadow of good things to come,
and not the very image of the things, gave
place to the new and more perfect form.
Here it was amidst the fading shadows of
sacrificial offering and Jewish ritualism that the
original seventh day or Jewish Sabbath passed
over, or was merged into the new and perfect
Christian Sabbath, which stands forth as the
ever-enduring memorial of Christ's grand tri
umph over death and resurrection from the
tomb. Hence all down the ages the church in
her ever recurring Sabbath convocations has
been permitted with! a glad heart to retrospect
the past, and to forecast the future. The one
serves as a rallying point of our faith, the other
as a sure anchor of our hope. And iust in
proportion as this holy institution is remem
bered and faithfully observed, will the nation
be exalted, and the church of God have pewer
to prevail. The Almighty Father seems to give
special emphasis to this subject; "And these
words which I command thee this day shall be
in thine heart; and thou shall teach them dili
gently to thy children, and shalt talk of them
when thou sittest in thine house, and when
thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest
down, and when thou nseth up. We are to
know God's words and our children are to
know them: "And thou shalt hnd them tor a
sign upon our hand, and they shall be as fount-
lets between thine eyes, and thou shalt Write
them upon the posts of thine house and on thy
gates."
Such was the importance and sanctity with
which Deity, in the glory of his loveliness, has
ever regarded this holy day of sacred rest,
therefore resolved
1st, that we, as a Conference and a church
deeply deplore any desecration of the Sabbath
day.'
2d, that we do all within our power, both by
precept and example, to bring the masses up
to a higher standard in the observance of the
Lord's day, the holy Sabbath.
Respectfully submitted. ;

Editor Review Permit me through your
paper to extend my thanks to the citizens
of Roseburg, for the kind and hospitable
manner in which they opened their bouses
and purses, furnishing cheerful and happy
homes to the members of the Oregon Annua1
Conference of the M. E. Church; which will
long be held in grateful remembrance by the
members and visitors attending, and es
pecially by the pastor for the courteous will.
u and right royal manner in which it was
lone. !
And aow I elesire to extend my sincere
thauks to the citizens ol Roseburg and Rose
burg Circuit for the heartfelt cordiality
which I have received at your hands, and
in your homes, for the generous manner in
which yon have contributed in a substantiil
way to the support of myself and family and
the many tokens of friendship we have re ceived,
and especially in your cont ributions
to the benevolent objects of the M. E. church
for the past three years. And may the Lord
of all bless you iu the future a thousand
fold more and increase your usefulness.
And in parting with you, my greatest re
gret is that I have not labored more faithful
ly and accomplished more in the salvation of
souls, for the sake of him who "so loved the
world that he gave his only begotten son
that whosoever belicveth in him should not
perish but have everlasting life. For God
sent not his son into the world to condemn
the world but that the world through him
might be saved."
Remember us at the throne of grace and
may the Lord Jehovah bless you, save and
keep you in the riches of his grace.
