Press"Assoeiutions Annual Meet.
The state press araocitlnns of Oregon
mid Wuslilncton met in regulur annual
session nt Spokane, August 25th, 20tii
and 2Tth. Tlie viHltlngeditorsniany
with their wives and families, were
thereto the nunibt-r of 200 or more.
The city by the tails was ready fortht
occasion, and the Spokane press clul
welcomed their visiting brethren and
extended them a royal reception'du
ring their 'three day's stay In town.
Headquarters were established In the
commodious rooms pf the Synion'e
block, on Howard Mreet. Carriages
met the guests at the trains and their
baggage was taken care of "by men for
thut purpote, so the visitors were pui
to no trouble while in Spokane. The
headquarters was gaily decorated with
flags and bunting, and on the walli
were the pictures of our president and
the heroes of our late war. The Spo
kane people generously supplied an
abundance of fruit, and cigars for the
editors.
Tiie Oregon state press association
wa called to order at 10:30 Thursday
morning by President Geo. B. Small
of the Baker City Democrat. The ses
sloti lasted until 12; new members were
elected and miscellaneous matters dis
posed of. An Invitation from the
Washington editors for a joint session
was accepted, and the joint meeting
was called to order at 2;30 o'clock.
Chairman Jos. A. C. Brant of the
Washington association called Presi
dent Small of Oregon to the chair and
turned the gavel over to him. Pres
ident Small then delivered his annual
address. He spoke pleasantly of the
joint meeting and the benefits to be
derived from such gatherings. Much
of his address was given up to a con
demnation of yellow journalism, his
remarks on this point being met with
hearty applause. He suggested the
need of .a change in the 'Oregon libel
laws and the advisability of uniformity
among newspapers in advertising rates.
The Oregonians soon afterward ad
journed to the headquarters room and
held a brief session. Astoria was cUo
as the next place of meeting. Cousid
crable'discusslon ' was aroused when J."
H- Dellingerof the Astoria News sug
gested the advisability of securing a
law from the next legislature fixing a
uniform rate among the newspapers
for legal advertising. A committee
was appointed to frame a bill for that
'purpose and present the same to the
legislature.
During this afternoon the ladies of
the Kort Invest press association were
given a musical reception by Spokane's
ladies' matinee musical hi the parlors
of the Hotel Spokane. ' The ladies were
entertained by the exceptionally fine
musical talent of Spokane, and it was
reported that fully 500 of the represent
ative women of the Northwest partic
ipated. In the evening the delegates were
treated to a trolley party and given a
five ride over Spokane's ex tensive elec
tric railway system.. With the end of
thVtrolley ride the city's guests gath
ered in the handsome Auditorium,
where was rendered a programme of
speeches interspersed with music.
Mayor E. D. Olmstead delivered the
address of welcome ou behalf of the
city.
Thursday morning, at 8:15, a special
tralu left the N. P. depot with a crowd
of S00 excursionists bound for Cceur d'
Alene lake. The lake was reached
after a hour and a half s ride, when the
passengers were ' transferred to the
steamer Georgia Oaks, and a 25-mile
ride across the lake enjoyed. The day
was a little cloudy and cool enough to
make the ride ou the lake most pleas
'ant. When the steamer landed, all
o'clock, tables were spread with three
tons of provisions and dishes. Every
thing was in readiness, and the editors
and ladies sat down to a royal feast.
The viand j were served in the highest
style of the art, and such hospitality as
"was displayed- by the Spokane press
club would be hard to equal. Such a
sumptuous layout was something new
for tiie country editors, but they proved
Themselves ample for the emergency,
and-the way the edibles disappeared
showed the' ability of newspapermen
to recognize a good thiug wheu they
see It.
On the return trip, various members
of the press were called for and speech
es made. Handsome souvenir menu
cards of the banquet were distributed
to all. After the returu to the city In
the evening many of the excursionists
took cars for the Natatorium park,
where a pleasant informal dance, under
the auspices of the local press club, was
held in the spacious pavilion.
Friday morning the Oregon press as
sociation held another meeting in the
headquarters rooms. A proposition
put forth by J. A. Douthit of The
Dalles Mountaineer, providing for the
establishment of a reliable advertising
agency for the Oregou papers at Port
land', the same, to be under the man
appment of the press association's sec.
rotary, met .with considerable discus
sion yio and inn. Considering the im
mense expense Involved in establish
ing an agency, Mr. Douthit asked that
weekly papers give the sreretary of the
association (the agency's manager) 30
Inches of advertising space a yeHr,semi
weeklles 20 inches, and dailies 11 inches.
He. considered the higher prices to be
obtained through the agency for for
eign advertising would more than
compensate for this space. The report
of Hie committee on resolutions was
then submitted and adopted as read
On behalf of the Oregon press associa
tion the Spokane people were thanked
for their hospitality; the Spokane press
club was tendered' the association's
thanks and appreciation for the utten
tion given their guests; the Washing
ton press association was congratulated
for the fraternal greeting tendered the
Oregon press association and ladies;
tendered thanks to the various railroad
managers for their generosity in sup
plying transportation to the members
of the association aud their ladies, and
for other courtesies extended.
Col. E. Hofer of the Salem Journal
presented a resolution commending the
co-operation of the press of Oregon
with the department of history of the
university of Oregon in its labors of
collect! tig and preserving materials for
the sources of the' history of Oregon,
now being worked upon by Prof. F. G.
Young of the state university. All
available files of Oregou newspapers
are asked to be turned over to the state
university to form a part of the perma
nent historical records of our common
wealth. The lesolutiou further pro
vided that a committee be appointed
to arrange for . a celebration of the
semi-centennial anulversary of the or
ganization of Oregon as a territory of
the United States, March 3, 1809. The
session closed at 12 to meet again at
2 p. m. ,
With the calling to order In the af
ternoon, Chairman Small anuounced
the election of officers to be next in or
der. The election was gone through
with in a short time, the secretary be
ing instructed to cast the association's
ballot for the various officers. ' D. M. C.
Gnu It of the Hillsboro Independent
was made president; J. V. Stewart of
the Fossil Journal, first vice president;
A. N. Fisher of the Pacific Christian
Advocate, second vice president. When
the position of treasurer was reached,
Chas. Nlckell of the Jacksonville Times,
farmer treasurer, Fred C. Baker of the
Troutdnle Champion, and Miss Jones
of the Drain Watchman were placed
in nomination. Miss Jones withdrew.
This left the contest between, Nickell
aud Baker. ,The result gave Baker a
majority of two votes. Mr. Nickell
then moved to make the election unan
imous. Mr. Albert Tozler, the associa
tion's popular secretary, was re-installed
with ; vigorous enthusiasm.
Tony Noltner, the pioneer editor of
Oregon, was elected historian. As Is
the custom, the retiring president,
Geo. B. Small of the Baker City Dem
ocrat, was made sergeant-at-arms.
There being no further business, Chair
man Gault anuounced the meeting as
adjourned sine die. Some one pro
posed three cheers for Spokane, and as
the vigorous response died away in
echo the '98 session of the Oregon press
association became a thing of the past.

From the Buys in the Philippines.
Following is part of an interesting
letter from Clarence English to his
mother, dated Cavite, Philippine Isl
ands, July 29, 1898:
As the steamer Peking will leave to
morrow or next day for San Francisco,
I thought I would write another letter
to my best girl; so here goes. I would
like to tell you just how the whole sit
uation stands here, but I do not know
myself. , Geo. Merritt and the others
in command do not say what they in
tend to do. We have been in these
quarters just 29 days, and from reports
1 have heard, we are liable to stay here
to garrison this place aud not get a
chance to go to the front. We are all
anxious to have a hand in the fight if
there is a fight. Most of the boys seem
to think we will have more trouble
with the insurgents than with the
Spaulurds, but 1 hardly think so, as
they nave a wholesome respect for the
'Americanos" as they call us, and the
Spanish warships lying all around in
the bay is an object lesson not easy to
overlook. . They never had any show
with the Spanish before Dewey came
and destroyed Montejo's fleet. The
way the' insurgents tight they would,
not last any time at all in front of an
army of Americans. They say that we
Americans are "mooclia buinna,,'
which means very good or very strong.
It is not spelled that way in Spanish,
but that is the way it Is pronounced.
I have learned a good many Spanish
words and thinkMt we stay here long I
will be able to converse with any of
them. I have put in about a week at
drafting ou maps for the general, and I
made a little rough sketch of our quar
ters for you aud 'will Inclose it in this
letter. I sent you some curios and
shells about a week ago by a man nam
ed George Brown, who was sick and
went back to Portlands Dr. Brosius
and the other Hood Rixfer boys sent
some fine ones which they bought al
ready polished by the natives, but I
picked the ones 1 sent you myself.
Dr. Ellis just came along wi th a bal
loon fish. It looks for all the world
like a balloon. - There are some queer
fish here, aud all kinds of crabs, clams
and oysters and also eels.
I am hitting now just back of the lit
tle square building you see in the left
of the sketch. Our quarters are very
comfortable, and we are well fed now.
inere ioiiows a sKeicn or tne ground
plan of the building , in which the sol
diers are quartered.' There is a thou
sand of us quaitered here and we have
plenty of room. The. grass is thick
and green all over this country. Mosjt
of the yards are full of pului trees, 'but'
: there, is only a few small ones aroui d
our quartern. The uiitry around M -!
nila is covered wiih rice fields, which
are small patches with htile dikes of
, cart li built up all around tiiem to keep
tne water in.
We have filter for our water. It is
first boiled and then filtered. We use
rainwater altogether, and we get pleti'y
of it now, as it ruins everyday. The
same kind of English pparrnWH you see
every day at home are thick here, and
also a large kind of mocking bird.
A man named Countryman, who at
one time worked for the Oregon Lum
ber Co. at Little White Salmon, is a
member of our company ; and Jamison,
our first sergeant, was deputy United
States marshal at The Dalles. - The
members of our company represent all
trades and professions. There are car
penters, blacksmiths, machinists, drug
gists, lawyers, doctors, engravers, prim
ers, jewelers, barbers, bakers and cooks,
and you may be sure we make good
use of the latier. We also have a few
farmers.
We all wear light gingham shirts,
checked, such as we sell at home for 50
cents, but not so heavy. We look like
a lot of farmers but we feel comfortable,
and that is all we care for out here
among the heathen. : I haven't' seen
more than six white women since we
left Honolulu, and they were wives of
some of the Spanish officers who were
taken prisoners here; and they hardly
look like while .women. They are al
most as black as the natives.
We have Salvation Army meetings
here every evening, just like they do
in Portland One of tbem came over
in the ship with General Merritt. Af
ter retreat, every evening, some of us
go up and sit on t lie top of the old' fort
which overlooks Manila and the whole
bay and' our fleet, which signals with
colored lights and throws search lights
all over the bay. Manila has a good
electric light system aud it looks fine
at night to see it strung out alonu the
shores, with all the ships signaling and
throwing lights around. "The fleet of
all nations," as . we call the foreign
ships, lies off to the north of Manila,
and it is always lighted up in good
shape. It is seven miles from here to
Manila in a straight line, but about 26
to go around by land. The California
t roops are camped within seven miles of
Manila, also some of the regulars aud
other troops. You could notice a great
difference between the men of our reg
iment and the First California. They
seem to be mostly small men and our
hoys look big and strong, like the reg
ulars. Don't Tobacco Spit mid Smoke lour Mfe A nor.

one cause.

The Cuban "Patriots."
'An army oftictr recently returned
from Santiago gives his opinion of the
"patriots' in the Cuban army, as fol
lows: "I Went to Cuba believing that
the insurgents were patriots engaged
in a struggle for liberty. I was disap
pointed to learn that the Cuban soldier
has no idea of what liberty means.
The term in his mind signifies merely
a license to kill and plunder at will.
All the Cubans 1 saw around Santiago
were either negroes or half-breeds. I
do not believe there are 100 white men
among the forces under Gome, and
Garcia. The negroes are of the lowest
and most brutal type. The idea of per
mitting these people to have a voice in
the government of the island is absurd.
Their elevation to power would mean
nothing less than anarchy. The sol
diers who braved the dangers of the
Santiago ... campaign from motives of
chivalry were chagrined upon their ar
rival to find that they had enlisted to
fight for a lot of brigands, cutthroats
and outlaws. I am satisfied that, it
will be necessary for us to exterminate
the insurgents if we carry out our plan
to give the islands a stable govern
ment." H. P. Cone of Trouldale, who had
his leg broken at his saw mill and is
now in the hospital at Portland had
to have the injured limb reset twice
before it was satisfactory to the doctors.

of Mrs. Alma Howe, returned to her
home In Portlaud last week.
