ORDERS THEM
DEPORTED
Gettcral MacArthur Has Banished to
Guam a Number of Captured In
surgent Leaders.
Manila, Jan. 7. General MacArthur
baa ordered the deportation of General
Ricarde, Del Pilar, Hizon, Llanera and
Santos to the island ot Guam. Nine
regimental and four subordinate officers,
with eight civilians, including Trias,
Tecson and Mabini, notorious assistants
of the insurrectionists, have also been
ordered to be deported. It is General
MacArthur's intention to bold most of
the active leaders of the rebels who have
been captured in Guam, until the re
sumption of a condition of peace has
been declared.
The first municipal election was held
successfully at Bagaio, province of Ben
gueta, Saturday. The Igorrotes took
part in theelection.
The Filipinos in Manila have been en
joying recently a novel experience, in
the holding of the free, open political
meetings. Most of the addresses at these
meetings were made by former officers
of the insurgents, all of whom asserted
that the best way of securing personal
liberty is to accept the liberties guar
anteen by the constitution and govern
ment of the United States, which is
what American sovereignty stands for.
The audiences were greatly interested,
and many of those attending the meet
ings signed the federal party declaration.
The construction of a rebel prison at
Olongapo, in addition to those at Manila,
will be begun shortly.
General MacArthur, accompanied by
his staff, reviewed the Thirty-seventh
regiment of volunteer infantry on the
Luncta this afternoon. All the com
panies were together almost for the first
time since the regiment was organized.
After the review the regiment was drawn
up in close order, and General Mac
Arthur, in a farewell address, congratu
lated the officers and men on their
bravery, discipline and judgment, con
cluding his remarks with a hearty, "God
bless you, comrades."
The Thirty-seventh will sail for home
on the transport Thursday. More than
half the men nnd many of the officers
come from Tennessee.
Morrow County Wheat.
HinTNKit, Or., Jan. 7. Charles John
son has just bought S200 bushels of
wheat from B. Kiely at 44 cents. This is
oiio of the largest of recent sales, and
about 75,000 bushels have recently been
bought along the Heppner Railroad.
Mr. Johnson has kept pretty close track
of Morrow county's wheat production
tills season, and says that from the most
recent figures obtainable it will total up
to 950,000 bushels. There are still sev
eral thousand bushels on the farms that
will not be hauled until spring.
When threatened by pneumonia or
any other lung trouble, prompt relief ia
necessary, as it is dangerous to delay.
