UTEST WAR BULLETINS Washington, May 4. Troops will he sent to the support of Commodore Dewey at the Philippines. This much is settled. The numerical strength of the torce and the time of departure will ' be known upon receipt of the first dis patch from Dewey, In which are ex pected to be indicated the commodore's ideas as to the number of men required tn hold and defend the islands. It is probable that not less than 10,000 troops will compose tbe expedition and that they will sail from' San Francisco for Manila not later han May 15th.' Telegraphic orders have been sent to I San Francisco to engage nine steamers of the Pacific Mail Company, which could transport without difficulty an array of 10,000 men. Arrangements have also been made to send a supply of coal if Dewey should ask for it, but v it is understood that there are 10,000 tons at Manila and good grounds to believe that the supply is much greater. Just back of Fort Cavite is a dock with abundant apparatus for ordinary ship i repairs. The principal problem, there fore, is to send enough men to garrison the city, and it is believed 10,000 .well- equipped American troops will be suf ficient for this purpose. . The present plan is to take all the National Guard from California, Ore' gon, Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Col orado and far Western states generally. To these troops will be added probably a regiment of regular infantry and one of cavalry, and possibly the Texas Hangers, or one of the new volunteer regiments now being organized. The command will probably be given to Major-Qeneral Merriam, in which case he will be made a major-general of volunteers. While these plans have all been made in outline, they will be held in abey ance entirely until Dewey's report comes, so that it may be determined what will be necessary to do to hold tbe Philippines as a base of supplies for fu ture operations in the East Indies. The government has already obtained possession, either by purchase or char ter, of the Pacific Mail steamship City of Pekin, now at San Francisco, and she will be put in condition to sail by the 15th, at the latest, with coal, stores and troops for Manila. Latest. Pobtland, May 5. For some rea son details of Dewey's report are not made public. Report from Mare Island navy yard says Dewey's losses over 50 killed and 100 wounded. Also that be asks for a hospital ship and 2,000 men. : A late bulletin says Oregon and Marietta have had an engagement off the Brazilian coast. The Glacier bus been asked Why we don't print the county and state tickets of tbe different parties in the field and keep them standing to let people know who is running for office. The Glacier printed the tickets when they were nominated, but has never been favored with an order for their : publication, as has been customary with former central committees. Oth er papers in the county are printing the tickets as' advertisements. The different candidates have been assessed from $20 to $150 each to pay campaign expenses, which should include the publication of the ticket. The money will probably be used to send out dry . statistics and old and stale speeches on the tariff' or money question which no one will read. The Glacier is not a party paper, but all others in the coun ty take strong sides. . Let the central committees send out the Mountaineer and Dufur Dispatch for tbe union tick et and the Chronicle and the Antelope Herald for the republicans to new names In the county, and they may expect to do more effective work for their parties than if they burdened the mails with tons of literature sent out from the East. Considerable feeling is being express ed over (he governor's appointments in the regiment formed out of the Ore gon National Guard, some claiming there is politics behind it all. 1 Eastern Oregon officers in the O. N. G. have been turned down, and some of them we consider more competent to com mand than otheis who have received commissions, yet we fail to see where politics had anytliiig to do with it. j Those mentioned from Eastern Oregon as being turned down are all repub licans same as the governor. About six weeks ago the Glacier received from the A cetylene Gas Ma chine Co., Akron, Ohio, a reading no tice of about a stickful with a request to publish and send bill. To our reply that we would require pay in advance, giving them liberal terms, no answer was received. We have noticed the same ad running in our exchanges. Now comes the Caxtou Caveat, which exposes all fraudulent advertisers, and says its "correspondent reports that up to this lime his search for this concern has been a failure." In striking contrast with the begging for high commissions in the army by sous of favorite generals and others is the action of Lieutenant-Governor South of Arkansas, who resigned his high office and enlisted as a private soldier to go to the front. It is noble fo serve your country with a commis sion and shoulder straps, but a greater patriot is he who enlists as a private and carries a musket. Commodore Dewey's victory at Ma nila reassures the American people of tbe superiority of our navy, in men and battleships, over the Spanish. It was a glorious victory, and Oommo dore Dewey's name will live in history along with the greatest of the world's naval commanders. Politics are taking a rest. War is the only subject the people want to hear about. . Stump speakers will have a hard time to get audiences or hold them unless they talk about the war during this campaign in Oregon. Grazing Limits for Sheep Defined. Commissioner Hermann of tbe gen eral land office issued the following or der under date of April 29th: Allow no grazing within the closed areas about Crater lake and Mt. Hood, nor in the regions about Mt. Rainier frequented ny tourists. Upon repre sentations made by the water commit tee of the city of Portland, grazing is hereby absolutely prohibited in the suu Kun reserve and about Alt. Hood in the Cascade reserve, north of the Barlow road and west of the summit of the divide, and east of the east fork of Hood river. I am advised and assured by said committee that the road and divide would be unmistakable boundaries, and if sheep are excluded from all por tions of the reserves embraced by them, the water supply of Portland will be preserved, and the- camping grounds and places of resort on the slopes of Mt. Hood frequented each summer by large numbers of the inhabitants of neighboring vsllages and by tourists will be protected. Consequently the above will be the closed areas about Mt. Hood. Daughter of the Department. The Dalles, Or., March 81, 1898. My Dear Comrades: At the last annual encampment of tbe G. A. R., held in Independence, the department of Ore gon conferred upon the citizens of this filace a most gracious honor by accept ng our invitation to hold the next en campment in The Dalles. Our enthu siasm at that time was unbounded, and tbe same earnest desire to meet the members of the G. A. R in our own homes still warms our hearts as the time draws near. Perhaps some of the veterans who read this letter did not know tbe department of Oregon bad adopted a daughter; but be assured the daughter is yours, and through this message brings a greeting filled with honor and love and loyalty to every member of tbe Grand Army of Oregon. I wish to personally Invite you to visit the encampment this year, and give us the opportunity of proving to you the sincerity of our promise of a year ago. Come and meet with us (May 17th, 18th and 19th), and I assure you you will have the heartiest wel come a loving and loyal daughter can give you. Mamie Wagley Briggs, Daughter Dept. of Oregon. Nashville and .Hoscburg, 1808. The attention of the Christian En deaverers of the world is iieing directed to Nashville now as it was a a year ago to San Francisco, and one of the great est meetings in the history of this great movement is assured. Oregon Endeav orers are looking especially towards Roseburg at this time where their an nual state convention will be held May 12th to 15th. Preparations are being made in that lively burg for the recep tion and care of all the delegates who may find it possible to attend.

Latest advices from the East state that strawberries from the heavy pro ducing sections in Arkansas, Missouri and Kansas are late, owing to heavy frosts during the early blooming sea son. Tbe first full car was shipped from Van Buren, Ark., on April 30th, and Sarcoxie. Mo., and vicinity expect to be shipping about May 10th, but as the weather is cool and damp tbey will probably be still later. The California crop is now moving and the quality of the fruit is good. Comparisons show that our crop 13 maturing rather too early to be con ducive to a good healthy market to be gin with, and a generous application of ditch water is now in order. H. F. Davidson. A letter from Denver, dated May 2d, to N. C. Evans, secretary of the Hood River fruit union, says: "The straw berry crop in Arkansas and Missouri will be heavy, but on account of the cold backward rains they are ripening very slowly. As soon as the weather warms up they will ripen very rapidly and they expect the season to be very snort. Arkansas berries will, no doubt, be out of the way on the 12th and the Missouri berries will be in 'about that time and will last possibly fifteen days, but we doubt if tbey will load cars that long, 'mis will leave tne market bare, with the exception of your stock, until our own comes In. ; Educate Your lloweli With Cascarets.
