C2j The Dalles My Chroaiele. SUBSCRIPTION I'KICE. One week $ 15 One month 50 One year 6 00 "FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 9, 1898 The president's order returning the enfeebled regulars of the Firth army corps to the military posts in the "west and northwest whence they were called to southern rendezvous in the spring and to Cuba in the earlj sum mer, is both wise and considernte. The same may be said of the decision of the war department to grant fur loughs to all volunteers who were en gaged in the Santiago campaign. The bracing air of the higher alti tudes cannot fai.' to act as a tonic to the enfeebled soldiers, while a fur lough of sixty days, with its possi bilities in home-coming and care, wi'.l put the men to whom it is ex tended in condition to meet an' emergcnc' that ma' arise later on from the acquisition of new territory. While the big camp at Montauk is one great hospital, only a portion of it is recognized as such, and the ac commodations, espeeiall' in the food supply, are not equal to the necessi ties of sick and exhausted men. Thousands of the feeble men now quartered there have homes to which they can go, where the' will be put upon nourishing diet and ministered to by competent and willing hands. The sooner all of this class are sent home the belter both for themselves and their less fortunate comrades, who, not having homes to go to, will by this means be relieved from the discomfort due to overcrowding and receive more attention from doctors and nurses. Oregonian. The Havana newspaper, Diaro de la Marina, is mistaken in assuming that "annexation, independence, an American protectorate and a Spanish protectorate" are the alternatives which are to be submitted to the Cu ban people. A Spanish protectorate is an impossibility. When Spain evacuates Cuba a few months hence her connection with tLe island ends immediately and forever. The only alternatives which present themselves are annexation and independence, though independence would involve, for a long time, a United States pro tectorate. When the Cubans a few months hence, under the supervision of the United Stales' military au thority, but without any pressure from that authority, make their choice of the sort of government they want, they will vote for annexation or for independence. All the indications point to an overwhelming victory for annexation. The Klondike Nugget, one ot the two papers published at Dawson, la ments over the trouble of finding its town subscribers, who pay $24 a ear for the privilege of getting a semi week'y edition. A paragraph in a recent issue explains the difficulty by saying that it is very hard to find some of the houses tccording to ad dresses left at the office. Among those mentioned were "the cabin with the screen door," the slab house facing the river," "the big tent with two stove pipes," and "the cabin three doors south of where all the dogs are." Admiral Montojo congratulates himself on having got away from Dewey with a pennant, breech plugs and the money in the safe. After a sea fight with Uncle Sam the Spanish seem pleased to find anything in the nature of relics. Some doubt is expressed as to whether it is Columbus or his son, Diego, who is buried at Havana. The explorer in his old age wa3 treated badly by Spain, and did not want to be buried in that country. The is sue, however, is not one upon which the United States will take sides. The loss of the navy during the war with Spain was fifteen killed, forty-three wounded, a marvelously small list in view of the fact that thirl five Spanish ships were de stroyed in aation. The health of the 28,000 mei in the American navy has been remarkably good. One of the first things the Spanish peace commissioners will discover is that no door exists by which any other than the two nations concerned can enter the discussion about the Philippines. That question will be settled by the United States and Spain, no more. t'OK SALE. 320 acres of land, estate of V. J.
