EDITOR REVIEW: Our town has been un-
usually quiet for several weeks past with the
exception Of little fracus that occurred be-
tween couple of our citizens last Sunday
evening which caused some excitement and a
little loud talking on the streets; its wonderful
at the coats and vests that are worn out by
being thrown around on the streets of this
city, if the people could be more cautious
about what they drink, and more careful about
what they say, and adopt the rule of sdoing
unto others as they would have Others do unto
them" there would not be SO much wrangling
and disputes among one another.

to be busy, the covered stage coaches from
here to Scottsburg have been carrying full
loads Of passengers, and the Normal school
has larger attendance than ever before in its
history.

pleased with the liberal patronage and words
of encouragement that they are receiving from
every source.
Everybody seems determined to have
happy New Year, in spite Of fate.

RING THE WEDDIFG BELLS
BEAUTY AND PLEASURE REIGN.
a RECHERCHE AFFAIR.

A more respectable gathering of friends
scarcely takes place in ones life time, than tha
which occurred at the large aud commodiou
residence of ]. R. Dodge, Esq, in Oakland
Douglas County, Oregon, last night. Fol
some months Hymen has been arranging hi:
altar at whose shrine two hearts would rever
entity bow. So it was happy occasion, when
yesterday evening he spread his marriage wand
over two destinies, which should henceforth
forever be one.
w. B. Hamnitt was raised in the old
Dominion State, and something more than
a year ago be came to Oakland to visit his
uncle DR.. E. ]. Page. Since which time he
he has been engaged in the hardware and
timers business with C. M. Hall. This ben
edict is young man of excellent habits and
unquestioned integrity. The lady who has
launched out on the voyage Of life with him,
We unhesitateingly say, has involved norisk in
this matrimonial transaction. Miss Mollie E.
Dodge the young and blushing bride was raised
in our midst, hence to speak Of her in particu-
Lar would be Out of place. We can only say
that she is an accomplished lady, having at
tended the leading schools in the state, but,
best of all, her home education under the ex-
cellent tutorage Of her mother is more COM
mendable, and to be envied, than all else
besides.
About fifty guests were present, and the
arge and airy rooms under the brilliant light,
gave good accommodations, and reflected the
decorations and paraphernalia to the very best
advantage. The ceremony was performed at
half past eight o'clock by Rev. J. R. N. Bell
in the most solemn and impressive manner.
The brides dress was sage-green the color,
emblematical Of undying devotion, and the
groom wore the usual conventional suit. The
bridesmaid, Miss Fannie Thomas wore a
beautiful dress of bottle-green hue, while the
groom's best man, Robert P. Dear was clad
In dress suit highly appropriate. to. the oc-
casion.
The presents were many and valuable, but
space forbids their enumeration this week.
This young couple start forth TO battle with
the cold dashes of life's realities with every
prospect of success. Both are well equipped
with natural and acquired abilities, and if a
happy solution of flife's problem is not realized
by them, then the well wishes of host Of
friends, and all that go to make up an encour-
aging beginning, shall be accounted naught
The sincerest regardsfof the REVIEW are
hereby rendered, and our desire shall always
be, that the fragrant rose Of happiness may
always bloom in the garden OF their destiny.

RosEBURG REFORM CLuB.-Tuesday at
7:3o T. NJ. about one hundred and fifty men,
bers Of the Club, together with goodly au-
dience of the towns people, were seated in the
Grange hall feasting their eyes and intellects.
The address delivered by Hon. w. f. Ben
jamin was both interesting and instructive.
His political view of the prohibition question
was very fair and reasonable one. 1 have
not the time, nor will space be allowed me to
give even synopsis ofhis able speech. 1t is
very evident, however, that his heart is in the
cause. During the intermission quite num-
Der signed the pledge. The remarks by W.
]. Mullen were too true. "Had the women
a voice in the matter the question would soon
be settled" The exercises of the evening
were all good. Rev. J. w. Miller was chosen
chaplain to preside at the next meeting, and
]. r. n. Bell was selected 10 address the Club
Tuesday evening, Jan. 10Th, A. D. 1886.

PUBLIC ScHooLs,-The attendance on the
Roseburg public school is much larger this
month than ever before. There are about
forty pupils in the school from other districts,
and who pay into our school treasure enough
money to pay for teaching them and at least
eighty of the children Of this diltrict. In the
school there are several teachers in attendance
who assist the four regular teachers to such an
extent that the amount of class work done in
this school really amounts to as much work as
is usually accomplished in six or eight rooms.
Class work is constantly kept up in FIVE
rooms under the supervision of some one who
has previously taught public schools success.

Superintendent. The best of order is pre-
served throughout, and from twenty minute:
to one hour is allowed the class recitation.

Household Calendar, is sweet enough to kiss.
We have seldom seen anything so attractive

happy hit by the enterprising proPrietors of
Hoods Sarsaparilla, who never seem conten-
ted with anything less than the very best in
whatever they undertake. Their Calendar is
a beautiful ornament for any home. If you
