THE FAREWELL
OF A SPANISH -INFANTRYMAN
A Soldiers Tribute to a Vic
. torousFoe.
HE LOVES NOT THE CUBANS
Most Remarkable Document From a
Vanquished Adversary Thanks
and Best Wishes Tendered By the
Spanish Soldiers.
Washington, Aug 22. A document
entirely unique in the annals of warfare
was cabled to the war department today
by General Shatter. It is in the form of
a congratulatory farewell address iesued
to the soldiers cf the American army by
Pedro Lopez de Castillo, a private Span
ish soldier, on behalf of the 11,000 Span
ish soldiers. No similar document, per
haps, was ever befora iesued to a vic
torious army by an vanquished adver
eary. The president was very much
impressed by the address, and after
reading it carelully, authorized its pub
lication. The following is the text of
the address as cabled by General Shaf
ter: Santiago de Cuba, Aug, 22. H. C.
Corbin, Adjutant-General, U. S. A.,
Washington : The following letter has
just been received from the soldiers just
embarking for Spain :
"Major-General Shatter, Command
ing the American Army in Cuba. Sir:
The Spanish soldiers who capitulated in
this place on July 16th last, recognizing
your high and just position, pray that
throngb you all the conragous and no
ble soldiers under your command may
receive the greatest wishes and farewell
which we send them on embarking for
our beloved Spain. For this favor, which
we have no doubt you will grant, you
will gain the everlasting gratitude and
consideration of 11,000 Spanish soldiers,
who are your most humble servants.
Pedro Lopez de Castillo,
"Private of Iufantry."
-Also the following letter, addressed to
the eoldiers of the American army :
"Soldiers of the American army : We
would not be fulfilling our duty as well
born men in whose breasts there lives
gratitude and courtesy, should we em
bark for our beloved Spam without send
ing to you our most cordial and Bin cere
good wishes and farewell. We fought
you with ardor, with all oar strength,
endeavoring to gain the victory, but
-without the slightest rancor or hate to
ward the American nation. We have
been vanquished by you (so our generals
and chief judged in eigning the capitu
lation), but our surrender and the bloody
battles preceedirg it have left in our
souls no placa for reeentment against
the men who fought us nobly and gal
lantly. You fought in compliance with
the same call of duty as we, for we all
but represent the power of our respec
tive states.
"You fought us as men, face, to face,
and with great cocrage, as before stated.
squility with which we have not met
. during the three years we have carried
on this war against the people withont
morals, without conscience and of doubt
ful origin, who would not confront the
enemy, bnt hidden, shot their noble
victims from ambush and then immedi
ately fled. This was the kind of warfare
we had to sustain in this unfortunate
land. Yon have complied exactly with
all the laws and usages of war as recog
nized by the armies of tho most civilized
nations of the world; have given honor
able burial to the dead of the vanquished ;
with humanity have respected and cared
for vour prisoners and their comfort,
and, lastly, tj us, whose condition was
terrible, you have given freely of food,
of your stock of medicines, and you have
honored us with distinguished courtesy,
for, after the fighting, the two armies
mingled with the utmost harmony.
"With this high sentiment of appre
ciation from us, all there remains but to
' express our farewell, and with the
greatest sincerity, we wish yon all
happiness and health in this land-which
will no longer belong to our dear Spain,
but will be yours, who have captured it
by force and watered it with your blood,
as your conscience called for, nnder the
demand of civilization and humanity,
bnt the descendants of the Congo and of
Guinea' mingled with the blood of un
scrupulous Spaniards and of traitors and
adventurers, these people are not able
to exercise or enjoy their liberty, for
they will find it a burden to comply
with the laws which govern civilized
communities. ;
"From 11,000 Spanish oldiere.

-"Soldier of Infantry.

THE REPUBLIC IS HO MORE
America's First Break Toward Terri
torial Expansion Impressive and
Beautiful Ceremony at Honolulu.
San Fbaxcibco, Aug. 22. The steam
er Belgic this evening brought the fol
lowing: .'
Honolulu, Ang. 12. Precisely at eight
minutes to 12 o'clock today the Hawaii
an &xg descended from the flagstaff on
all the government buildings, and ex
actly at five minutes to the same hour,
the Stars and Stripes floated on the
tropical breeze from every official flag
staff. The ceremony of today was a most im
pressive one. To hear the straios of
"Hawaii Ponol" for the last time, as a
national anthem, to hear the bugle blow
taps as the Hawaiian ensign sank from
his position, and to notice the emotion
of many who had been born under it
and had lived under it, wa9 solemn.
But then came the bright call for rais
ing Old Glory, and the strains of the
"Star Spangled Banner" broke forth as
that banner was unfurled to the breeze.
Then cheers broke forth, and eyes
which had been dim tor a few moments
became bright and lightened up when
the Stars and Stripes blew out.
The picture presented in and around
the extensive building was most strik
ing. In the grounds and around all the
approaches were crowds of onlookers of
every station of a varied nationality.
Notably remarkable was the number of
Hawaiians. Within the grounds the
military and naval display was ; fine.
Hawaiian troops, United States marines,
the mounted patrol, the police and the
citizen's guard presented a splendid ap
pearance, while the platform for the ex
ercises and the verandas of the execu
tive building were gay -with brilliant
summer dresses, dancing feathers and
ribbons and the brightest faces that
Honolulu possessed.
The ceremonies opened with prayer
by Rev. G. L. Pearson, pastor of the
First Methodist church, of this city.
United States Minister Sewall then rose,
and, addressing President Dole, who bad
risen, peeented him with a certified
copy of the joint resolution of congress
annexing the Hawaiian islands to the
United States.
President Dole answered, acknowledg
ing the making of the treaty of political
union, and formally yielded to Minister
Sewall, as the representative of the gov
ernment of the United States, the sove
reignty and public property of the Ha
waiian islands.'
AMERICAN TARS
RETURN HOME
Cannon Boomed and Whistles Shrieked
Beside Which Every Person of
Souud Lung Cheered Then Cheered
Again.
Naw Yobk, Aug. 20. New York and
the nation have fitly signalized their ap
preciation of the achievements of the
victorious fleet. Early this morning a
citizens' committee of ten boarded Ad
miral Sampson's flagship near Ton) p
kinsville. The . welcoming ceremonies
were short, but impressive. The cere
monies over, amid the hoarse shrieking
of steam whistles and the hosannas of
the throngs on the shores and water,
Ltbe mayor and committee boarded the
steamer Glen Island.
There was a salute of cannon, and the
cheers of the people and thousands of
whistles made an indescribable din.
Soon the monster pageant was in line.
The great battleships moved slowly
and majestically. - As governor's island
was passed there was a tremendous re
port from the guns that did so much
execution at Santiago and Guantanamo.
The people on shore and afloat went
wild. They yelled and screamed, waved
flags and jumped up and down in pa
triotic fervor, and so it was all the -way
to Grant's tomb, where there was a final
demonstration of patriotic fervo', such
as New York has never witnessed be
fore. The pageant was viewed and
cheered by hundreds of thousands of
people. It was a magnificent and inde
scribable ecene, and one never to be
forgotten. ' , -.
The flagship New York led Sampson's
fleet into port this morning, passing the
Hook at 8 a. m. She was followed by
the Iowa and Indiana. Then came the
Brooklyn and Massachusetts, the Ore
gon guarding the rear. '
Sampson is looking far belter than
when the war commenced, and is very
glad to' get home. Speaking of the
crews, and especially the crewB of . the
Indiana, Iowa and New York, who have
bad no shore liberty for seven months,
he said : ."They have borne privations in
a manner beyond all praise.
Notice to Delinquent Taxpayers. -
The delinqent taxes of Wasco county,
as shown on th6 rolls now in the hands
of the sheriff are $60,000, an amount al
most equal to the indebtedness of the
county. Every citizen will doubtless
admit that this state of affairs should
not exist, and that all taxes should be
collected. On account of hard times
in the past the county court Las shown
leniency to taxpayers, but that leniency
has reached the limit, and the court
cannot wait longer on delinquents to
make settlements. For this reason a
warrant has been attached to each de
linquent roll commanding the sheriff to
collect all taxes by seizure and sale of
property. With a bountiful crop now
in Bight, there can no longer be any rea
sonable excuse for the non-payment of
taxes. The sheriff is bound by oath to
comply with the terms of the warrants
attached to the tax rolls for the collec
tion thereof, and has no option in the
matter. - Delinquent taxpayers can save
the cost of seizurejjn'l sale of property
by settling their taxes at once.
Robert Keely,
Sheriff and Tax Collector for Wasco
County.
Dated, August 4, 189S.
Deafness Cannot bo Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars; free.

THE NATIVE SONS OF OREGON
Organization of the Society Its Alms
and Objects and Splendid Pros
pects for the Fatnre.
In the city of Portland, during the
months of June and July of this year a
society was organized, known as "The
Native Sons of Oregon," the objects of
which are, as expressed in its articles of
incorporation and constitution, to bring
the native born adults of our fair state
into a closer union; to promote ac
quaintance with each otl er; to inculcate
the principles of friendship, personal as
sociation and mutual co-operation
among members of the order;' to en
courage - intercommunication, " inter
change of thought and ideas and as fre
quent fraternal visiation as the means
of travel and the claims and demands of
business cares and obligations will ad
mit. To develop the mental and phy
sical faculties of its members and to aid
and assist each other in every possible
manner at any and at all times. In
other words, to create between native
born Oregonians a bond of sympathy, of
friendship and fraternity similar in
point of comparison to that between
members of an affectionate family,
which is the strongest tie known to hu
manity. It is designed . te create be
tween its members a bond of brother
hood stronger than that of any other
society, voluntary or corporate, secret or
public, civic, religious or military,
Among its many laudable and noble pur
poses are numbered as prominently as,
if not more so perhaps than any other,
"those of the gathering together and
preservation of facts and details of Ore
gon's early history, the experiences and
biographies of -its noble and heroic
pioneers and the perpetuation of the
memories of thoso devoted men and
women who, bearing the dangers of
mountain fastnesses and sterile plains,
endured the hardships and personal pri
vations incident to jjurneys whose
trjals, deprivations and horrors have
never been half told or understood, to
lay the foundations of our hearthstones
strcng and deep in the land of our birth,
our beloved Oregon."
. It is the purpose of this association to
have the parent tree in the city of
Portand because of the superior facilities
to be bad in a city of the size and in the
present position of Portland. ..
It is intended to proceed immediately
and with all possible expedition to or
ganize branch cabins in every town and
vfllag9 in the state with a view .to hav
ing a large representation of cabins pres
ent at the annual session of the grand
cabin to be held in Portland, June 13,
1899.
The institution and installation of
cabins have already begun in Portland,
and charters, constitutions, blanks and
all necessary paraphernalia are now
ready for distribution including secret
work, emblems, buttons, regalia, etc.
The Order of Native Sor.s, for so it is by
reason rf its secret work, is made
secret with appropriate symbolism for
the purpose of giving a cohesiveness
that can be found in no other feature of
organized work.
Celebrate the Sixtieth Anniversary of
Their Wedding;.
Friday evening Mr. and Mrs. I. N
Sargent were happy in the - fact that
they were permitted to celebrate the
sixtieth anniversary of their wedding
and to entertain a number of their
friends upon the auspicious occasion.
Fortunate indeed are a husband and
wife who have lived to a happy old age
side by side, and on their sixtieth anni
versary find themselves so happily situ
ated and in Buch good health as this
aged con pie. However, one would have
to be convinced before they could real
ize that either one of them had passed
the eightieth mile-stone, so little does
their age tell upon them.
On the evening named a number of
their intimate friends gathered to ex
tend their congratulations and spend a
pleasant evening. It was an event
which was thoroughly enjoyed by all
and will impress itself on their memo
ries. Several, very useful and beautiful
presents were received by the happy
couple, expressing the good wishes and
friendship of the donors. -
Mr. and Mrs.' Sargent are beloved by
all with whom they come in contact,
and not only those who were guests, but
their host of friends extend their con
gratulations, and wish they may-spend
many more years of. happiness together.

WEDDING BELLS.
Marriage of B. L. Davidson to Miss Edith
P. Potter of Bond Klrer. A Delight
ful Wed1lic
- Upon the principles of Christianity,
and the duties anil obligations of chris
tian wedlock recognized and faithfully
discharged, rests the stability and per
manency of our government, the sanc
tity of the home and the virtue and
honor of our social institutions. These
things rightly understood impart to a
wedding more than the ordinary or pass
ing interest, and invests .uch an occa
sion with a solemnity, and yet with a
joy and delight all toj lightly appre
ciated. On August 18, 1898, your contributor
had the pleasure of attending the de
lightful wedding of Mr. Benjamin L.
Davison and Miss Edith Pearl Potter,
at Belmont, in the unsurpassed Hood
River valley, the home of the bride's
parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Potter,,
famous throughout the whole country
side for their generous arrd cordial hos
pitality. By a happy coincidence, the
occasion was also the anniversary of the
wedding of Mr. end Mrs. Potter, who
have been married thirty-eevtn years.
Rev. Robert Warner, presiding elder
of The Dalles district, solemnized the
wedding of their daughter to Mr. Davi
scn, and the marriage with the ring and
the responsive service was very interest
ing and impressive. Tl;e briie was
tastefully attired in conventional white,
with veil and appropriate flowers. Un
der the marriage bell the happy couple
received the hearttul congratulation of
their parents, relatives and friends, and
then led the way to the dining room,
where all partook of an elaborate and
bountiful supper amid mirthfullness and
genuine good feeling.
The prevading atmosphere might well
indicate to a looker on, that the present
was an omen of the other similar occa
sions from among the happy group.
And why not?
The invited guests, a number of whom
were childhood friends of the bride,
were :
Rev Robert Warner, The Dalles; Mr
and Mrs Frank McFarland, eisttr of the
the bride. Earl Carrol, Victor McFar
land, Mr and Mrs E Qnackenbush and
Fred Quackenbush, all of Portland ;
Rev and and Mrs G R Archer, Mr W
Isenberg, Mr M Isenberg, Miss Bess
Isenberg, Miss May Chapman, Mr W
Johnes and Mies Maggie Frazier, Mrs
Castner, Mr J Gregory and Eddie Mc
Farland, of Hood River; Mr Thomas
Gregory, Mr L Gregory and Miss Ruth,
of Portland University.
A slight personal allusion will indicate
the happy auspices,' under which these
young people embark upon the Be a of
life together. Mr. Davison is studying
for the Methodist ministry and is a
genial, earnest and devoted gentleman.
Mrs. Davidson is a very sincere and
sweet christian women, and thoroughly
in sympathy with her husband's life
purpose. She seems to have inherited
her mother's warm-heartedness, devo
tion and zeal in the christian life. If
their lives are spared, the world will
surely be richer and better for their
presence in it. ' X-
Joe Forrest, living at Thorn Hollow,
near Pendleton, had an accident Satur
day that will make him timid about
working in wells in the future. He was
having a well dug on his place, his boys
doing the work.. Thinking he could
make faster progress, he went himself
into the well and plied the pick and
shovel until time to come up, when he
fastened the shovel to the. rope -and
called out for his son to hoist away. The
latter hauled up the shovel to the top of
the well, when the implement fell,
striking Mr. Forrest on the face. His
nose was cut nearly off, and he was
knocked into a state of insensibility. It
was necessary to go oyer to a combine
harvester outfit that was working near
by, procure a rope and have help come
to take Mr. Forrest from the well. He
lay on the bottom, fifteen feet below
the surlace, and the task of hauling him
up was by no means an easy one.

TEE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing1 the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fig Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding- the worthless
imitations manufactured by other pa
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Fra Syhvp Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not gripe nor,
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of

About one month ago my child, which
is fifteen months old, had an attack of
diarrhoea accompanied by vomiting. I
gave it such remedies as are usually
given in such cases, but as nothing gave
relief, we sent, for a physician and it was
under his care for a week. At this time
the child had been sick for about ten
days and was having about twenty-five
operations of the bowels every twelve
hours, and we were convinced that un
lesB it soon obtained relief it would not
live. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy was recommended,
and I decided to try it. I soon noticed a
change for the better ; by its continued
use a complete cure was brought about
and it is now perfectly healthy. C. L.
