VOORHIES, FRED MENSCII, Propr. & Mnur Editor B DOSl Oregon, aa second-claus mail matter. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1901. It has been determined at the War Department to send troops to the Philip pines to take tbs place of thoae whose term ol enlistment expires. Where the re-enlistments are not large in any one regiment their places will be filled by separate detachments of recruits. II any considerable number of enlistments expire in a single organization, it probable thst (he organization as a whole will be returned from the Philippines and another regiment sent to take its place. In the boose of representatives tlia will convene In December, less than one fourth of the membership will be of new material. Only eighty four new men were elected last fall. Many of these, however, are already coming to Wash ington to acquaint themselves with the new president, with department official and routine and to secure living quarters for the session. Nearly all the new members are from the northern and eastern states. The south and west both have a custom of holding on to efficient congressmen and last year a majority of the states in those sections re-elected their solid delegations. Tbs Schley Court of Inquiry is expe riencing a 'longer sesrcb of the facts in the Santiago Naval campaign than th campaign required in the finding, block adlng and smashing of Cervera's fleet The testimony against Admiral Bcbley'i contentions in tbs case, is not yet con1 eluded, and the end thereof not even in sight. So far public Opinion seems to have been scarcely altered by the test!' mony, and everybody outsids the esse is waiting to hear the Sen ley side of It Only ons sentiment Is common and that is regret that the great victory ever de generated into so unsavory a conflict be tween high naval officials. The Court itself, presided over by Admiral Dewey la unstintedly praised lor its evident lin partiality and purpose to reach a true finding. Secretary Gage la quoted in dispatches from Colorado, where he Is visiting, ss predicting the retirement from the cabinet at an early date, of Hecretary ol State, Hay. Such an event would not be surprising. The secretary is In hearty accord with the proclaimed policy of President Roosevelt, undoubtedly, but both bis health and his personal in clinations, impel him to forego further official cares, lis does not feel thst bis services are Indispensable to the new administration and hs la tired of the spiteful misrepresentations of which he has been a constant victim to the parti san yellow Journals. As be has an am pis fortune and quiet tastes publlo office is a burden rather than a a race to bim . However, he is likely to remain in bis present office until the senate; disposes of the several treaties, which he hss negotiated and to the explication and defense of which he la nAlrlalU mitted. On his retirement, it is gener ally assumed that he will be succeeded by Secretary Hoot, now at the head of the war department. A strong movemeut Is being inaugu rated in this city and is to be extended throughout the country, to the end of having the projected bridge across the Potomac, converted Into a magnificent McKinley memorial bridge. It is deemed a most appropriate form ol hou onng the martyred president, as It will commute a great connecting link be' tween the national district and north srn section of the country and the great south. The remarkable manifestations ol personal affection and regret made throughout the south, uon the occa sion ol President VlcKlnley'a assassina tion and death, have smpliasited, in the public appreciation, his patriotic efforts to stamp out sectioualiaiu and to make the southern people feel themselves real and equal co partners In the notion's government and glory. A meeting in furtherance ol tuia opportune project will be held on October 1Kb, and through it, the movement, it is hoped, will gam an iuipetue that will carry the idea into splendid and speedy realization. It is not doubted that congress will be favor able to the nnble scheme.

Doecu. WASHINCTONJLETTER, WARIIIKOTO, Oct., 7lh, 1901. The modest little Dutch relor m church chosen by President Roosevelt aa bis place of worship is to profit largely by his preference. The members of bis denomination throughout the Union are raising a fund of $50,000 with which to erect a more commodious and stately church on tbs ground now so humbly occupied. President Van Buren was tbs only other member of this particular communion who bas occupied tbs presi dentlal omen. In bis day there was no society of the church, or church building of the name, at the national capital. President Roosevelt's selec- tioo of the church is I ikely to give vogue to the c'enoml istlon during bis term of office ind the p-ospects now ars that the society will beco ne a strong and notable factor in the relig ous life of tbs city The ine'ependen :e which character Izes President Ro isevelt seems also to obtain in his family. Mrs. Roosevelt a loyal communicant of the Protestant Episcopal church, and baa been granted possession of the famous "presidential pew" in historic old Ht. John's church on Layfayette Square. That pew bas been occupied by six of the nine Presi dents who were members of that religious denomination. Washington Madison snd Monro- served their terms before Ht. John's obtained the title of "The President's Church," but Win Henry Harrison, bis successor, Job Tyler, Taylor, Fillmore, Pierce snd Arthur, worshipped in tbs edifice, and so gave it the distinction which in part, Mrs. Roosevelt will renew to it. Thst part of the social contingent which bas returned from the summer resorts has hid two topics of interest' iug gossip, one, the marriage of Miss iielon Morton, daughter of former vice president, Levi P. Morton, to the Com de Perlgord et Sagan, of France. Miss Morton was well known and groitly ad' mired bers and is deemed well worthy of s noble husband and an ideal wedded lite. Many congratulations were cablsi from official snd social leaders of thi city. Tbs other and more sensational Item is tbatJCbauncey "Our Cbauncey' as tbs nation calls him, and "De Peacb,' aa Mie Bowery elite dub him, 1st be married again soon, and sure and safe enough I The statesman, orator, wit and wealth maker has surrendered to the) charms of Miss May Palmer, Knickerbocker southern belle, whose beauty, wit, diplomacy and American womanliness are celebrated on the two continents of Europe and America. Of course' the coming season will bring the senator's bride to grace his capltol borne and to adorn the highest offl clal and social circles. The elect are all agog to see her, and refuse to belisvs that the alleged portraits of ber in the newspapers do her any sort of justiie. When the senator does come upon the scene, be will need bis read lest repartee to ward off the merry jibes of bis host of admirers. Sir Darling, 1012 Howsrd Ht.

Depot, Reports bavs been rile on the streets of Ashland to the effect that lbs oil ssnds bad been successfully tapped at the drill ol the Southern Oregon Oil Co., on the Alffard place near town, and in nch excitement has been caused by them. These reports probably grow out ol the fact that the oil aeepages, which have been encountered for the past ten days or more have continued, and if anything, have grown stronger. A visit to the well sbows that the work of drilling la going on with the usual activity and that the drill is making most satisfactory rrogrees. At no time during the operations have the prospects of ultimately successfully tapping the oil sands sppesred so favorable as now. Last week the well hsd been dug and cased to a depth of 816 feet aod the bit was drilling through a cretaceous sand atone. A sulphurish brackish water bad been run across, which when taken from the well bad the appearance of soap suds. Two California eiperts who visited the property say that io all their expeiience with drilling operations they bad never seen s hole dug in which the indications of finally striking oil were so bo'intilul as at the Alffard place; and they believed the drill was now very close to oil. At noon to day the drill had worked to a depth of 830 feet and was still pounding through the cretaceous sandstone at a rapid rate. The work of the past few days has been quite bard on the bit, it having to be sharpened and put into condition for sfiective work at frequent intervals. Tidings Oct. 10.

The ledge maintains its size of 7 to 8 leet in thickness, and there is no diminution ol the ore. There is plenty of good free milling ore of rather good grade foi (O large a property. No shipments ol base ore have been made for some time, and everything is being put through the mill hers. Drifting is being done at the 700- foot level, and ore is being sloped at all the levels. A 28 pound brick was ship ped from a clean up the other day. The mine's business cannot all be made pub lic for manifest reasons, but it may be affirmed that it is making a good income on a very large capitalisation, and has proven a very aatiafactory property to its owneia. The gold now runs about $14 50 per ounce, the reduced value be log due to the presence ol silver. There is no important change in the mechani cal nperation of the mine. A station pump has been placed at the 700-foot level. There bas never been much trouble occasioned by the wutor in this mine, and the existing facilities render its operations relatively convenient and free from accidents. The timbering snd structural work is all of a substantia character. Home surlace improvements are being made on the claim, principally the construction of a new road.
