Anderson, whose promotion to be major general of volunteers was announced in the dispatches Monday. As colonel of the Fourteenth U. S. infantry he has been a resident of Washington since 1886, and has been prominently identified with the state. He is one of those able soldiers of the army who is without political "pull," hence promotion for him has been slow. Many another has passed him when promotion has been given by favor. Circumstances came to his aid at last, and at Manila he was given an op portunity to distinguish himself. Even there, however, he was deprived of some measure of the success that might have been his. He was in commane nntil the arrival of Merrit and had be been allowed to attack before Merritt's arrival, when he wanted to, the credit for the victory would have been entirely bis; as it is Merritt has the credit, for he was m command when the battle was fought. Although three j-ears ago v?hen Shaf ter and Schwan and Merriam and Coppinger and Smith and DeRusse' were all colonels with Anderson, Anderson in lineal rank being ahead of Coppinger, Deltussej' and several others who became generals ahead of him, and was only three numbers be hind Schwan and four behind Shaf ter, he was not granted promotion but remained a colonel, seeing offi cers his inferior in rank and service advanced over him, until the break ing out of the war, when he was at last made a brigadier general. Now he has won the other stars and is a major general of volunteers. It was General Anderson who, as colonel of the Fourteenth, took the troops to Skagway last year and was in com mand there. He now lias the Philip pine insurgents on his hands and is dealing with them in a manner to in dicate he is a diplomat as well as a soldier. Generalj Anderson entered the army in 18G1 as a private in the Sixth Ohio volunteer infantrj. but was shortly promoted to be a second lieutenant in the regular army and assigned to the Second cavalry, later to the Fifth cavalry. He won his two bars as captain in the same year, skipping the grade of first lieutenant, was brevetted major and lieutenant colonel in 18G4 for gallant services in the battles of the "Wilderness and Spottsylvania, and in 1866 was trans ferred to the Twenlj--First infantry. In 1868 he was made major and in 1869 was assigned to the Tenth in fantrj'. Ten years later he became lieutenant colonel of the Ninth in fantry and in 18S6 hi was promoted to be colonel of the Fourteenth in fant' . Ever since he has been stationed at Vancouver barracks. A TINGE OF SADNESS. In the aftermath concerning the great naval display at New York, on the 20th inst.. the Sun had the fol lowing: "The only suggestion cf a tinge of sadness in the homecoming of the fleet was in the lament of an officer on the Oregon when he said : 'Such a day as today is the one day in a man's life when he would like to have his folks looking on, and unfortu nately for the Oregon men's personal interest in the reception, most of them were Pacific slope men. They might console themselves with the obvious fact that their ship was the most popular boat in the fleet, and that it was flanked on either side with the greatest number of excur 8i6n boats loaded with people, who cheered themselves hoarse for the men from the Pacific slope. Ever since the United States showed such powerful strength and fighting qualities the European pow ers are coming down from their nigh roosts. The latest is the czar of Russia. He now wants an interna tional conference looking to lasting peace and the reduction of the ex pensive armaments. His proposition has caused considerable comment throughout the old world. Notice to Delinquent Taxpayers. The delinqent taxes of Wasco counly, as shown on th6 rolls now in the hands of the Bberiffare $00,000, an amount al most equal to the indebtedness of the county. Every citizen will doubtless admit that this elate of affairs should not exiet, and that all taxes should be collected. On account of hard timea 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 beon attached to each de linquent roll commanding the sheriff to collect all taxes by seizure and sale of property. With a bountiful clop now in eight, 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 coat of seizure an-.l sale of property by settling their taxes at once. Robert Kelly, Sheriff and Tax Collector for Waeco County. Dated, August 4, 189S.
