The Jinior Band. The Junior Band ot
Kescburg furnished the music for the Repuli
can State convention in Portland Wednesday
last. Quite a compliment as well as a profit
to our boys.
Off for Grant Coun ty. Last Monday
Messrs. Ragon and FJclds started to Harney
valley where they go to secure homes. They
will return for their families within a few
months, at which time we hope they will re'
port that they can find nothing that equals
Douglas county, .
New Company, J. II. Shupe, C. W
Claybourn, A. F. Brown, E. J. Fage, J. II
Mahoney, of Oakland, have filed articles of
incorporation with the Secretary of the Slate
as the Oakland Cement Co. The object of
the company is to manufacture and dispose of
hydraulic cement. ,
Sixty Five Thousand Cattle. Messrs
Hardy, Seiben and Swett of Montana will ship
from(Douglas county between the 5th and 20th
ol May about 6,500 head of cattle, leaving
about $i5o'ooo in cash in this section. Other
parties have expended thousands of dollars in
this county for cattle this yr-ar. So this busi
ness is proving a splendid source of revenue.
Reform club. The reform club will
meet next Tuesday evening May 4th at the
usual place. Rev. J. W. Miller will address
the meeting upon the subject of the prohibi
tion of the manufacture and sale of intoxicating
spirits, after which the audence will be enter
tained by songs, dialogues, stump speeches,
instrumental music etc. A fine programme
assured. Come everybody.
To Merchants, A superstitious subsciber
who found a spider in a copy of his paper
wants to know if it is considered a bad omen.
Nothing of the kind. The spider was merely
' looking over the columns of the paper to see
what merchant was not advertising, so that
it could spin its web across the store door and
.oyitee from disturbance- Ex. . . v
-.....j: ...r ' -
.f Sturgeon in the Umpqua. Last Tues
, day evening several fine sturgeon Were caught
in the Umpqua river near tht dam about a
milc above Roseburg. It is said that there is
an abundance of Chinook salmon in south
Umpqua and fishermen say that these fish will
in a few days be in the north branch of this
. river. AVere it not that a ready sale is found
for all our fish, a small cannery on the Ump
qua would thrive.
The Amateurs. The troups from Jack
sonville played to delighted audiences las
Tuesday and Wednesday evenings the two
beautiful dramas "Better than Gold" "Com-
rades," and the farce entitled "The Little
Rebel." The casts we have not room to printt
this week, but allow us to say that many pro
fessional troups have attempted to hold Rose
burg admirers of the histrionic art with far less
success and satisfaction. We hope to be able
at some future time to return this compliment
with some of Roseburg's talent in this line.
Roseeprg Junior Band. The Roseburg
Junior Brass Band will pass down on the
lorth bound train this afternoon, en route to
li rtland, says Tuesday's Statesman to be in
nclance at the Republican state convention.
Ajnong the members are Willis McEIroy and
LJon and Carl Jones, formerly of Salem. The
band, by many, is considered one of the best
juvenile bands on the coast. They will play
at the depot, where all lovers of good music
can hear them by being on hand at train time,
(.rrof. Mark F. Jones is leader. The delega
tion from Douglas county will go to Portland
to-day. The two men are Hermann for con
gress and Fullerton for secretary of state.
The Tongue. The tongue-guard society
ib the latest organization in Ashland. When
a member catches himself or herself speaking
ill of anyone he or she is expected to make
immediate confession of judgment and pay for
each such offence one cent penalty into the I
treasury of the society. The funds are to be
used for the relict of the needy people of the
community. The idea is a good one and en
tirely commendable in both its corrective and
its benevolent feature. Everybody should
join. Tidings.
Roseburg needs just such a society, and the
income in a short time would build a first class
orphan asylum. Ed.
Drain Normal School. With the close
of the third term last Friday, President II. L.
liitason severed his connection with the above
named institution, to accept a position at
Grant's Pass By his departure we lose the
best instructor we ever had in our school. He
leaves here with the highest regards and best
wishes of every citizen of this place, and every
student who has attended the Normal School
while under his supervision. As much can
not be trutefully said of many teachers, leav
ing after three years- work in a school. While
the people of Drain do not hope to secure a
better president, for the Normal School, than
Trof. Benson has been, the energy and self
sacrificing spirit which have characterized the
founders of the school, assure us that the high
standard of excellence attained by the Drain
Normal School is to be maintained. This in
stitution is one of which every citizen of this
town and of the county may well be proud,
and he is a poor friend of the town, who would
put one straw in the way of its success. We
understand Prof. Rippetoe is to take Professor
Benson's place for the nest term, and that at
the annual trustee meeting, which occurs soon,
a full faculty will be elected for the next school
year. Drain Echo. We fully agree to the
above.

Father of Diseases.
Constipation has been called the father of
diseases, and there is no health where a costive

body established.
The apointment of Senator Jackson, of

It is an acknowledged fact that such vege
table productions as have been exposed to the
sun's influence, in just the proper degree, are
particularly noted for maturity and excellence
of flavor. To this class lielongs the brand of
pure, uncolored natural leaf Japan Tea now
being imported by Mr. Abraham and styled
"Sunbeam Tea." The highly seasoned and
delicately aromatic properties of this unrivalled
brand, it may be well to add, are preserved
in perfect condition through being packed in

restore the origonal color and make it long,
thick, soft and glossy. You need not stand

I. O. O. E. CELEBRATION
A gala day.
The 67th Annivasaiy of Oddfellowship
which took place in this city on Monday April
26 inst. was a grand affair. Roseburg, always
beautiful was more so on this occasion, on ac
count of the magnificent display of flags, ever
greens, regalias, and military uniforms, which
dressed our little city in holiday attire. The
day was splendid, intact we could not have
had it more to our liking if we had ordered it
ourselves. The proccession formed at the
Conrt House at 9.30 A. M. headed by the
Y. D. Band, and marched direct to the grove
where a grand stand had been erected and
decorated with evergreens, and beautiful em
blematic pictures belonging to the order. Our
Cotemporary, Hon, D. S. K. .Buick was
Master of Ceremonies which is a sufficient
guarantee that the arduous duties of that
office were ably performed. In his introduc
tory remarks he spoke at some length upon
the history and usefulness of the Order and
gave ample evidence of his thorough knowl
edge of the subject upon whieh he was speaking-
Hon. J. F. Backensto of Albany was next
introduced. Mr. Backensto presents a fine
appearance upon the rostrum and acts and
looks the Orator which he is. His round full
manly voice was very pleasing to the ear,
especially in his eloquent picture of Roseburg
and Umpqua valley. The vast audience felt
that they had learned much of Oddfellowship
and could now better appreciate the beauties
of the noble Order to which Mr. Backensto be
longed. We are sorry that we have not the
space to print in full the speaches that were
made on this occasion.
The Orator of the day was next introduced ,
and spoke for half an hour on the history of
Oddfellowship going into the minutest details
and explaining the benefits derived by belong
ing to the Order, in such a lucid manner,
that all who were within sound of his voice
could understand. We feel that the managers
of the celebration ought to be thankful for
having been so fortunate as to secure the
services of two such able gentlemen as Mersrs.
Weatherford and Backensto to entertain the
vast concourse of people that were present on
this occasion. .The next order of business was
a call to lunch, and you can rest assured that
the summons did not 'have to be repeated.
The tables fairly groaned with all the good
things that this prosperous county affords,
and after dinner we groaned too. The garnet
consisted in gtass ball shooting base ball,
greased pig, and sack racing, which afforded
a great deal of amusement to both old and
young. The music by the Yankee Doodle
Band was excellent, they looked fine in their
showy uniforms which reminds us of old times.
If we have missed anything in the above
article, just call at our sanctum and we
will apologize. We were glad to see the
smiling faces of our Jacksonville visitors and
hope that they had as much fun as we did.
Election Ballot.
Secretary Earhart has made arrangements
for supplying the various county officials and
political organzations with the uniform style
of ballot paper provided for in the new law.
It is of peeuliar tint and texture, and will

Earhart has appointed Messrs. McKercher and

RESOLVTIOSS
fas tea by the Democratic County oh t-et-
tlOH
1 ne Democracy 01 Douglas county in con
vention assembled believing that jlie Demo
crane party is the only great natibnal party
whose principles are broad enough to compre
hend and justly deal with all the conflicting in
terests 01 me various sections 01 ima ereat re
public. That its tenets are deepl f imbeded
in our form of Government, and sta nd as bul
warks to our liberties, declare implicit faith
and confidence in these principles
taught
by the founders of this republic
d regard
our Gov-
them essential to the preservation df
ernment. -
We hereby declare to the count
our un-
qualified endorsement of the open
bold and
indejendent policy pursued by
President
Cleveland in maintaining the hono
and dig-
nity of the high office to which he
as elected
by the people. That we view
distrust
any en-
and denounce as unconstitutional
croachment by one department of
the Gov-
ernment upon the prerogativ
of an-
other. That we look upon the policy inaug-
urated by the Republican majoii
ty in the
United States Senate in infringing
upon the
prerogatives of the executive as re
olutionary
and fraught with danger to the ftlt
urc pros-
perity of the country.
That a public office is a public trust, and we
hold that all our public servants are account
auie 10 ine people wno elect mem, and we
look upon a large number of federal officers
which were created by the Republican party
as sinecure positions for its members, as worse
than a useless expenditure of the public mon
eys and most heartily approve the
policy of
our chief executive in curtailing tnese offices
and In discharging many thousand
of these
work be
employes, and demand that this gobd
continued to the end that all these
useless
offices that are relics of the pub!
plunder
system be abolished, and that the Government
be administered in the most economical man-
ner consistent with the public necessities,
That we recognize the JDivind
command
that the laborer is worthy of his
hire, ar.d
therefore favor such legislation as
Will
secure
to wage-labor its just proportion ofl
the wealth
it creates.
That the public lands are the rightful
herit-
age of the people and should be hold
inviolate
for the bonafide homestead , and
pre-emption
settler, and not another acre should
be granted
to corporations or for speculative purposes.
That we demand such free school facilities
in our midst that the children of tl e rich and
poor alike may have the opportunities of ob
taining an education commensurate with our
advancing civilization.
That the existence of a system of servile
labor in our midst is contrary to the genius of
our government; That free white 1: bor should
not be forced into competition wil h the same
and we therefore urge the abrogation of exis-
ing treaties with China, removal ofl all the serfs
and subjects of that government frc m our coun
try, and on this matter we demai d wise and
prompt action lest the people res, rt to reme
dies that may be fraught with calamities.
That whilst we favor the immigr ition to our
shores of all persons fitted to becoi ne citizens,
we protest against the importal; tion in any
form of contract or servile laborersL and especi
ally denounce the employment of convicjs to
the disparagement or displacement of honest
labor. That we recognize tliatjall the just
powers of government are derived from the
consent of the governed; That the people are
the source of all power and that whenever there
is a reasonable demand for a change, alteration,
or amendment of oar State Constitution, it is
the duty of the Legislature to subifait the same
to the people for direct action by them .
And we therefore favor the submission to
the . people of the pending constitutional
amendment.

the young ladies and gentlemen playing

their companions who are distributed over the
play ground a beautiful picture. Every family
should possess a copy.
An Atylum.
The "labor" demonstration in Chicago on
Sunday, in which thousands of aliens marched
under red banners, carrying mottoes in foreign
languages menacing to the industrial life of the
nation, was gravely suggestive of the mistake
that has been made in supposing that all men
are able to appreciate the blessings of liberty
and that all are capable of self-government.
The term "An asylnm for the oppressed sug
gests a beautiful theory, but in reducing it to
practice some of the larger cities of the United
State have become swarming places for com
munism and its attendant outrages. Men
whose greatest grievance is that a working day
is ten hours long, and whose voice, in a foreign
tongue, their indignation at being advised by a
sober, intelligent friend of labor to "drink wa
ter as cattle do," furnish an exemplification of
this "asylum of the oppressed" idea that can
scarcely be said to give encouragement to
push the experiment further. Men who in
terpret the term liberty to mean license grow
troublesome in proportion to the consideration
shown them. Oregonian.
Bright Band.
Last night the Oregonian office was treated
to a serenade by the Roseburg junior brass
band. The band came up yesterday with
the delegates, and during the day played over
loo selections. The members are all under 17
and have been organized only six months,
during which time they have been drilled by
Mark F. Jones, who is still director for them .
How carefully Mr. Jones has done his work is
shown by the excellent playing of the boys.
Their notes are true and their time perfect,
in fact they are now equal to any but a military
band. It would very much encourage the
boys if they should be chosen for the State
fair, and they are fully competent. They are
a full brass band of twelve. The names of
boys are Leon Jones (leader), George Lang
enbtug, Louis Belfils, Lee Bell, Daniel Lang
enberg, Albert Bitzer, Carl Jones, Roscoe
Oaks, Will Benjamin, Grant Parrott, Willis
McEIroy, and Shiller Herman. Oregonian.

Mr. Dyer bas always been one of the besl '
citizens wherever he lived. He came from
Missouri to Oregon a number ot years ago,

integrity in every relation of life as he so nobly
did in his earlier years. He leaves a devoted
wife, and a large family of children to mourn
his loss. All of the children are grown, and
most of them married. We knew Father
Dyer, and our knowledge of his virtues made
us feel sad when we heard that he was no
more. We extend our deepest sympathy to
those who are bereft of husband, father
