The Pendleton Republican has decided that Judge Aikin of the 1 Sixth Judicial District is the man to be elected United States sen- j rtor. The Sunday morning that Ad miral Cervera took his ileet. out of Stiago harbor and lost it he Cervered the last tie that entitled him to Spanish gratitude, accord ing to Castiliaa standards. The Times-Mountaineer thinks it probable the Hon. Biuger Her mann will be next United States senator from this state, but that it would be a loss to the nation to take him out of the General Land Office. No general ot any would have stolen other irmy and sought refusre and safety as did Aueustin at Manila. Such men are both physical and moral cowards, and justly earn the dis grace and stigma which follow them into the lorest depths of scorn to which they inevitably descend.

GOV. LORD'S POSITION. If it b: true, as reported in the Oreronian. that Governor L,ord has written the New Yon; jour nal that he is opposed to the retention of the Philippines by the United States, it must be apparent that the governor does not have future political aspira - tions, for the retention of the Philippines is demanded by at least ninety per cent of the citi- zens of Oregon regardless of partv. No s nator can bs elected bv the legislature to convene iu January who is not known to Ik thoroughly iu harmony with the j people on tins important ques tion. The governor has made his bed 011 tin; subject with our own Sylvester and ex-President Cleveland notable company, ' tis true, but, happily, a very small minority in voting strength. .1 WISE MOVE. Fortune favored the U. S. again when Dewey and ?Ierritt captured Manila and acquired by surrender the entire Philippine archipelago Had the cable been worki u tO .Manila. Dotll i w ' I 1.1 these officers would -have had knowledge of the signing of the protocol of peace, and .Manila would not have keen in our poss ession now. This would have complicated matter- in a very grave way before the peace com mission. By forcing the surren der not only the city, bat all of the territory included, became ours by the arbitrament of arms, and j simplifies matters greatly. We; ur !nnp clci nrl I ni- (xrnimfl imnn which we can safely assert our ! rights and The cbie i defy all intruder'; i :ino- cut was a bless- ing in disguise, br.t to the average mind it appears strangely singu lar. that as soon a fatl;ia U1'.

It is not at all surprising that the rank and file of the Spanish army believe that they will be treated with indignity, cruelty, and subjected to the bar- baric methods prevalent in the 1 dark ages, should they surrender or be captured in honorable war- fare, when commanded by such incompetents and cowards as Blanco and Augustin. r,Dm-i.n..n nffpirri-ormv , .

Howard; of Monroe, wiin ;s ... has written a loil!r and interestimr letter to his' jatner Albany, from whieh we have been kindly permitted to make copious extracts, as follows: Have arrived after 36 days on water. We hospital corps boys had hard work all the time, which made t lie lime pass faster to us than I he oilier boys. We had 49 cases of measles after we left Hon olnlti: every man is well.

It makes a ' queer feeling come over one to see jail those heavy armored ships, made ol heavy teel, battered and I lorn like an old tin can. I hear heavy tiring and heard it all night It we don't make an attack soon !we won't have any thing left tojt ihe present writing the animal fight. They have prisoners all over town. I found 500 officers, prisoners, last night, that 1 knew nothing ot before. It looks funny to see a high Spanish officer walk ing around town with a little na tive prancing along behind him with a gun hung on his back. We are learning I he language. The natives just arrived with 12 boatloads of prisoners, the result of last nights fight. They went back and said, more prisoners.": I went through the insurgents' hospital. There arc men there with all kinds of wounds. I haven't heard Irom home for more than a month, but we expect mail tomorrow, Don t worry about me. If any thing happens to me, the boys will lei you know. I have every thing I need. Emit,. Hold the Philippines. Our fellow citizen, Judge Bur nett, has positive ideas in regard to the duties and responsibilities ot this great nation. We take pleasure in republishing the fol lowing from his pen in the Oregon ian of the 10th inst: Can we do less for the Philip pines than we have promised to do for Cuba? If we should for sake Cuba now, and turn her over to the tender mei'.-Ies of Spain, we would be guilty of moral covardic which would -tamp us as a nation with infamy. Can we turn the Philippines over to Spam or any of the foreign powers without a backdown unworthy of the Ameri can name? Outside of any quest ion of commercial advantage, there is a principle involved 111 UICI V. 1 -J this Question that ...-meals to the ireat American heart.
