For mi Kdltor to Ueonmmenil Patent
illecllciiii!?
From Sylvan Valley News, Brevrad,
v.
It may bo a question whether the
editor of u newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which flood tho
market, yet as a preventive of suffering
wo feel it a duty to say a good word for
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy. We have known and
used this medicine in our family tor
twenty years and huye always found it
reliable. In many cases a dose of this
remedy would save hours of suffering
while a physician is awaited. We do
not believe in depending implicitly on
any medicine for a cure, but we do
believe tnat if a bottle of Chamberlain's
Diarrhoea Remedy was kept on haild
and administered ut the inception of an
attack, much suffering might be avoided
and in very many cases the presence of
a physician would not be required. At
least this has been our experience
during tho past twenty years. For sale

RAPID PROGRESS

Entertainment for Officers and Men of
the Regiment Honorable Dis
charge.
Sa.v Fhaxcisco, July 22. Four more
companies of tho Second Oregon A, L,
15 and E went before the medical ex
aminers today. This work will con
sume but little more time if the remain
ing companies have their rolls ready
when their turn comes.
Examinations arc not bo detailed as
when the troop mustered in, except
where a soldier claims to have suffered
some disability in the service. In such
cases, care is taken to learc whether the
alleged trouble was eo incurred. From
present indications, not many of the
Oregon men will be classed as perma
nently impaired. Some of the wounded,
of course, are injured for life, although
the number is not large.
General Beebe and staff were in camp
most of the afternoon greeting members
of the regiment. Major Moore will re
main a day or two later to astertain if
anything definite can be learned con
cerning the regiments'e return to Port
land. General Shatter was away today,
so that conference with him could not
be had.
General Summers and his staff were
this afternoon the guests of the Bo
hemian club of San Francisco. The
Oregon boys were tonight invited to two
functions, and also had tickets to the
baseball in the afternoon.
Honorable Discharge.
Washington, July 22. It is stated at
the war department that nothing will be
done to prevent the honorable discharge
of the members of the Second Oregon
regiment who have criticised Geueral
Otis and his management of tho cam
paign. Tho action of these men is
severely condemned by officials in the
war department, and it is asserted that
they Bhould have at least waited until
they had been diechargsd before making
any such statements.
