GO TO WORK.

The election is over and we should
remember that life is real, life is earn
est, and should not be the habitat of
the drones. Our correspondent signing
himself Traveller" calls attention to
important facts. The fact is shame
that during the years of the existence
of Douglas county no county road has
been constructed from Camas Valley
to Coquille City. The route is covered
by finest of timber, and there is no
doubt that fine coal fields will be de.
veloped. The road from here to Klam-
ath marsh has long been discussed al
most adneasuam, even to such extent as
to create contempt but at this time we
think the good work will soon begin.
Let there be no further delay. Those
in middle age should live to enjoy the
benefits of their toll and labor. Again
the enterprise of railroad SURVEY from
Roseburg to Huntington should not
drop out of sight. 1t is a matter that
will develop great and benefcent re-
suits. Citizens we have work to do
and this is the time to do it. We con-
gratulate our county that Fitzhugb,
McGee and Hall, the old board; have
been returned. This assures us further
good bridges and good roads. This is
the best evidence of genuine prosperity.
But there is more that demands i'm
mediate attention. So 60 to work.

NOT so.

We have heard clever Republicans
say that the Democracy of Douglas
county have been greatly aided by the
Prohibition party. We assert to our
readers nothing can be further from the
truth. Let us illustrate. Myrtle
Greek gave the Prohibitionist a very
large vote Out Of which number only
eight Republicans can be found. In
this precinct there were at least three
Democrats to two Republicans that
were Prohis. Example, the vote given
Mr.. Ramp formerly Democrat one
hundred and twentyone. Look pray,
at the Wilbur vote, that Of Callapooia.
In Ten Mile the Democrats suffered
far more than the Republicans. So
has it been in Scottsburg where single
vote was cast for the new movement.
Several precincts paid no attention to
the new party, especially Gardiner
where the democracy generally pre-.
vailed. No, the Prohibitionists cannot
control the democracy and from this
time we hope they may gain from that
party no new convert. He that leaves
that party would be unwise enough to
leap into the deepest darkness.

CAMPAIGN.

The campaign upon the part Of the
Prohibitionists for 1883 commeced in
Roseburg, Douglas county, State of
Oregon last Tuesday evening. The
usual Juvenile Band were present and
discoursed characteristic good music
A transparency was carried saying
''The Prohibition compaign for 1888
had commenced" the whiskey traffic
must go etc. It was in the cleaning
of the eve and we did not observe ex-
actly the notices but we think we
have quoted them substantially. 1t
served as notice that something was
going on. After parading through
the streets the crowd proceeded to the
reform club hall where anvil exercises
were INDUCED in. What occurred on
the inside we know not. The nature
and character of the speeches we know
not but as the most prominent leaders
reside in or near Roseburg we could
not endure another speech so early
after the election, hence we are content
to say good-yery good-such as they
are. Be it however, for fact, their
campaign for 1888 has opened. Whew!
What time, quite two years for them
to grunt and sweat, ard sweat and
grunt and belch before they find
party that may come to realize that
there is hy around CT about. There is
no use denying their right to do this,
in fact the Democracy do not deny
their right to picnics and speeches, ex-
ercises, music and more speeches; they
have . right to circulate free speeches
and specially manufactured statistics
and certainly to those who pay for
them. They have a right to abuse the
Democratic party from keel to top
mast; charity of the grave silences
the abuse of the dead; they have
right to abuse the living but we caution
against reckless use of this right,
Democratic muscle is net always pa
tient and enduring but if it was so we
assure our prohibition friends that no
party is greater than the law. We
congratulate the young band upon
their prolonged employment. We
wish them much success and improve
ment in music, may we so further we
hope they may live until some party
may arise that may displace that good
old party SO long and favorably know.
Democrats 90 to your homes, keep
yourselves posted and about Apri
1858 begin your campaign for victory.
SrRAHAN's official majority is some
where near one hundred. Il may be
mora Init can hardly be less.

ROSEBURG REVIEW
FRIDAY. JUNE, 18, 1886.
DEMOCRACY TRIUMPHs.

The election of Sylvester Pennoyer
Governor over T. R. Cornelius in the
State OF Oregon is a great victory for
the Democracy. As men they both
stand high in the social scale. Prob
ably no other two men in the entire
State better represent the conflicting
principles which divide the two great
parties. They are both honest con-
cientious outspoken and positive in the
defense of the respective principles
which they espouse and to this fact
Sylvester Pennoyer owes his election.
On the Chinese question there is but
little difference of opinion on this
coast. More than three fourths of the
legal voters Of the State are in sympa-
thy with the great Democratic party
on this issue. Mr. Pennoyer correctly
represents the national Democratic
party in this regard as he does also on
the labor land and money questions.
Having worked his way up from poor
farmer with a donation claim in the
wilds of Oregon to his present standing
and having passed through the yicissi
tudes of farmer, laborer, contractor
and butler, it is not strange that he
should be found in sympathy with the
laborers and take strong grounds in
favor of protecting the honest work
men in the enjoyment of the fruits of
their toll. On the other hand Mr.. Cor.
nelius embodies and holds to the
aristocratic ideas Of the Republican
party that man who works for liv-
ing is no better than serf and the
more degraded they can make labor
the cheaper they can have their meniel
Iervices performed. And whilst in
public life his record has been consis-
tent with this idea and he has at all
times favored the creation of corporate
wealth and opposed the abregation of
Burlingame treaty under which the
Chinese serfs are brought to our shores.
The national Republican party are
with Mr.. Cornelius on this issue and
Cornelius correctly represents his
party in this regard. It will be re.
membered when the recent law of Con-
gress was passed limiting and restict
ing the right of these Chinese to land
at our ports. How the measure was
foug ght by almost the solid Republican
party and how it received the veto OF
Republican president who refused to
sign the bill until it passed in its
present modified from which renders
it almost imperative. The conflicting
principles maintained by the respective
candidates on this and the labor ques.
ton of which this auxiliary became
we'll known and understood by the
voters which will account for the un-
precedented victory forthe Democracy.

President Cleresond on the oregon Election.

Representative Henly was one of
the Presidents first callers Wednesday
morning He dropped in to tell him,
he said, that Oregon had gone Demo
cratic by handsome majority; and
that the prospects for the Democrats
securing the next United States Sena-
tor from that state were exceedingly
flattering. The President replied that
the announcement gave him satisfac-
ton. He said that although local
issues had contributed somewhat to the
result, he regarded it as triumph Of
Democratic principles, and he hoped it
was the beginning of a tidal wave that,
rising in the extreme northwest, would
flow with increasing force until, by the
time the presidential year had been
reached, would sweep the entire coun-
try.-Star.
