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.

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.

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

Knickerbocker southern belle, whose

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

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.

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.

with a full crew. The main donble com
partment abaft is down 770 feet an
ainking on the ledge continues. 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. The
wall rock at the lowest levels attained
this mine continue to be granite. Town
