ED. REVIEW: Mr.. Chcnowcth who was
appointed to the Postmastership Of Oakland
by the present administration has thought fit
through the columns of the Republican organ
to take exception to certain remarks OF your
Oakland correspondent, which appeared in
TIE REVIEW of the goth ult. Mr.. c. tells
us that he holds his present position unsolicited
by himself which explanation is getting to be
rather old. Will he kindly inform his Dem.
ocratic friends how he did manage TO get it.
II 1t was on account Of his extreme loyalty TO
TO the Democratic party or was it because
there was no one else n this precinct who
duties connected with the Office Mr. c. must
surely feel that he has forfeited his position,
even if he ever had any claim 10 it. In The
first place; he has denounced the party that
appointed him. Secondly; by appointing as
his deputy, man whose antagonlsm toward
the Democratic party is not excelled by any
for partisanship. Mr.. C. has openly insulted
the Democrats, and lastly; Mr.. Chenowcth
has used his position for electioneering pur-
poses, by publicly distributing Third party
tickets at the Post Office on election day,
which is contrary 10 the laws and regulations
of the Post Office Dept, and this alone is sufi-
cient cause for his removal
Yours Respectfully,

Il Mystery.

How the human system ever RECEIVERS from
the bad effects of the nauseous medicines often
literally poured into it for the suppositiye
relief of DYSPEPSIA, liver complaints, consupa-
ton, rheumatism and other ailments, is a
mystery. The mischief done by bad medi.
cines is scarcely less than that caused by dis
ease. II they who are weak, bilious, dyspep
tic, constipated or rheumatic, would oftener
be guided by the experience of lnvalids who
have thoroughly tested Hostetter's Stomach
Bittcrs, they would in every instance obtain
the specdiest aid derivable from rational
medication. This medicine is searching and
at the same lime a thoroughly safe remedy,
derived from vegetable sources, and possess
ing in consequence of its basis of pure spirits,
properties as medical stimuleht not to be
found in the fiery local bittcrs and stimualnts
often rcsorted TO by the debilitated, dyspeptic
and languid.

Famous ssWild w est

Approaching events arc said TO cast shadows
before, and such at least appears TO be the case
with the forthcoming visit Of w. w, Coles
New Colossal Shows, which exhibit here Sat
urday Sept 4th. Probably the approach OF
no other tented exhibition has ever attracted
such widespread interest in this vicinity as have
the announcements of this engagement. In
short, the idea IS prevalent that Manager Cole
has completely outdone all of his previous great
efforts, and some strikingly novel innovations
can be anticipated Fully alive 10 the require
ments of the times, and with determined
purpose to present attractions that have never
had counterpart in this country, MFR. Cole,
Immediately on the close Of his season last No
vember, dispatched alnumber of trusty agents
to Europe in quest of novelties, giving them
carte blanche TO pay any price, providing the
feature possessed sufficient merit and had new
er been seen in the United States. The re-
suit has been that Manager Cole has collected
the most brilliant group Of circus stars that
have ever graced the arenas of Europe. Not
only is Mr.. Coles personnel of performers rich
in celebrities from the old world, but the most
daring and noted of american artists likewise
disport themselves under his imposing tents.
The menagerie department has not been neg
lected in this general furnishing up process.
Every Cunard steamer that arrived in New
York during the months of February and
March brought important acquisitions for the
geological collection. Prominent among the

revival of the hippodrome sports of a1cient

most signal reproduction Of classic racing car
nivals of contemporancous times. Exciting
struggles between $3o,ooo stud Of English
and American thoroughbreds take place at
every performance on The enormous hippo.

into requisition for the presentation of series

down as certainty.

1Hat Chino Is 4irrning for Har With
Anterica.
CHICAGO, Aug. IA report which
reached here yesterday is that the Chinese
Government is increasing its armament in
great haste, and has ordered 200, 900 rifles
from England. This is looked upon with no
small degree of suspicion. 1t is interpreted
to mean that the Chinese Government pro-
poses to take advantage Of The opportunity
while the United States is on the verge OF a
crisis with Mexico, TO force the Government
through AnesicaH interests in China, to pay
ihe uhinese government $4,000, as pro-
posed BIZ the last Congress, as indemnity for
depredations inflicted on the Chinese al Rock
Springs. The Chinese Government at ono
time made peremptory demand for rcmuner-
alton growing out Of the tragedy, which by
the failure Of the passage ofthc bill, was never
granted. The fact that such great haste is
manifested in obtaining supply Of arms for
China, seems strongly to favor the theory of a
possible warfare upon Americans and Amer
lean interests in that country, with view TO
bringing rbout recognition from the Govern
mcnt of this demand.

No Conrention This Yenr.

New YORK, Auc.17 AT its meeting TO
day the Republican State Committee discussed
the question Of a State Convention this year.
There is only judge of the Court of Appeals
to be elected on State ticket this fall. and it
Is usual for that nomination to be made on
such occasions by the State Committees, but
convention would give the anti-saloon people
chance to have a plank according TO their
doctrines put into the Republican platform,
and they tried hard to have the committee
order a convention for this purpose. General
Conway and others spoke for convention.
A long debate followed. The motion 10 hold
a convention wasdeleated by a vote OF IS ty 9.

The Yankee Doodles left on Sunday morn
ing for Roseburg, taking with them the good
wishes Of our people on the bay. The enter
tainnent on Friday evening was thoroughly
enjoyed by large audience. The music was
most excellent and was highly appreciated,
and the minstrel performance was in good
taste and very amusing. There was no attempt
at the absurd caricature Of the negro race, so
common in minstrel shows, and the low OBJ
scene allusion and jokes, which are the stock
In trade OF many travelling troupcs, were en-
tirely absent. This speaks volumes for the

was well attended and was composed almost
entirely Of young people, and nice young peo-
pie. The hall never looked brighter than

sfasS Meeting Of the Cif.=ens Of Douglas

PURSUANT to call from Hon. Asher Marks,
chairnanof committee. on building a wagon
road from Roseburg across the Cascade noun
tains 70 Crater lake, large number Of the
progressive and intelligent men of Douglas
county assembled At the court house last Sat
urday1 Hon. w. +. Owens was made chair
man of the meeting. The design of this meet.
ing was to consider the report of the engineer
in charge Of the party who surveyed the pro-
posed route and 10 devise ways and means by
which the wagon road from Roseburg 10 era.
ter lake could be built as speedily as possible.
The meeting was an enthusiastic one and many
plans were suggested. In was finally resolved,
on melton Of K. N. Bell, that a committee
Of sescn be nppointed by the chairman, TO
draw up and at once circulate a petition to
the County Court TO locate county road as
per survey of Mr.. Arlington. The committee
appointed were ]. r. N. Bell, C. Ball, r. b.
Dixon, As Marks. All. Engeles, ". F. Ben
janlin and ". + Owens. This committee
will present their petition at an adjourned
meeting to be held in the court house next
Saturday, and steps will then be taken to cir
culate said petition and 10 further consider
the project. tits hoped that all who arc in
terested nthe development Of Douglas county,
the iairest spot Of Oregon, will attend. Let
the eAergg now lying dormant be developed.

one and all Of Douglas county. Citizens turn
out ef-masse at the meeting next Saturday.
Now is the time for action. The following
from the chief engineer J. NJ. Arlington, who
surveyed the proposed route explains itself:
In regard TO the proposed road 10 Crater
lake and as feasibility and cost Of constructing
roads are generally considered by comparison,
permit me to say that on one mile Of the Coos
Bay wagon road there was more down timber
than on the whole line Of the proposed road TO
Crater lake. The sides Of the mountains are
sleeper on the Coos Bay wagon road by sever
al degrees, the canyons narrower requiring
deeper cutting, thereby giving greater cause for
land slides, than on the proposed road 10 Cra-
Ter lake. The road to Coos Bay is in clay
bed a portion Of the way, requiring planking
or cross laying Of timber, which the road to
Crater lake would not. You will also find
that in winters snow falls on the Cascades
while there are heavy, dashing rains on the
Coast range Of mountains, which causes great
washputs. : Dated Aug. nth, 1886
