A LETTER THAT COMPLAINS AT A LACK OF RECOG NITION BY THE PUBLIC. Salem and All Oregon Towns Should Hold Mass Meet ings In Their Honor. Encourage The Noble Fighting Heroes of Malabon, aud Erect Monuments For Their Dead. This olilce is In receipt of copies of tho trl-weckly Manila "Fteedoin," con taining full accounts of tho battle of Mulabon, whero tho Oregon Regiment dls tinguished itself in a manner to reflect an undying glory uion our state. Tho matchless achievement of the battleship Oregon in the destruction of Cervera's lleet has been followed up by a, display of valor on tho part of tho Second Regi ment Oregon Volunteers that places tho Webfoot state at the head of tho light ing column. It is high time the people of Oregon should begin to take notice of the proud rank won for thtilr state bv the soldier. bo s at the front. Following extract from a letter received at Salem today would Indicate that tho Oregon Volunteers have not received tho recognition to which they arc entitled, and which it is not now too late to send them. Tho letter containing tho complaint at tho indifference of our peoplo is from a member of a prominent Oregon family, and it is to bo hoped thero may bo no delay In sending suitable greetings, as there is no luke-warmness in tho hearts of the masses of Oregon people toward their bravo soldiers at tho frent: The Salem Man's Letter. "I have lost a good deal of love of country in the last year, and osjieclally for Oregon, for she is the most ungrateful state in tho union. Every reuiment here has received a cablegram from their legislature conveying a voto of thanks from tho people to them for their bravery: anil every regiment that has had a hard fight and lost men has received a dispatch from thefr governor complimenting them on thoir conduct; und nearly every state, if not every one, has voted extra j iay to ner men serving in loreign countries, nui mini uregon never a worn nor n siini that she knows she has men here.

It is oxptwtud at the war department that Otis will take stops at onco to replace the Spanish garrison at Samboangua .with with United Statos troops. The place is one of great strategic importance, hoing the capital of the island of Mindanao, the second largest in tho Philippine group and u good seaport. San Fuanoisco, Muy 15. Tho trans jort Valencia arrived today from Phil ippines. Ionian, Utah, May 15. Orson Smith, president of Cache county stake of the Mormon church, left hero two weeks ago and it is learned he left Indebted iiftM to farmers throughout th aiiinty aggregating, $30,000. It is beliovud he has gone to the Klondike aountry. Smith was npjsjlntTid provident of the when the encm tho river hy the Heavy lire wo poured Into them, and early the next morning crossed tue river and drum them from two more lines of trenches. This was done by m men from Oregon, done under tho heat of a tropic sun with the thorinomoter at 125 degrees or 1.10 degrees and little water to bo had. And Oregon legislator in their great munilicenco propose to "give us first chance at state jobs." No one in tho regiment had asked for imv inonev or oxnected aur from the state, mid nothing would have liven , thought of it it they had not proponed it themselves and then raised a howl. Well i supiioso unit is the reason we received no cnniegram oi congratulation enner n would havo cost a few dollars to send it Generous, noble hearted citirons of Oregon! By the way, 1 supioo they expect as many of the boys as caiilcon venientiy die to do 'so, in order to lie in on that monument. Another tiling noble ? Oregon has done for her men she gave them old ragged wornotit uniforms and then charged them fl8.il for them innro than the government charges ior new ones, Otlier states presented their men with now outfits." The Oregon volunteer who complains of the lack of recognition by tho Oregon legislature is not correct In saying nothing was done by the legislature for the volunteers. Tho examination of the records shows the follewing: In tho special session a joint resolution was introduce! by Representative Flagg, of Marion county, appropriating 1 5,000 for tho payment to those who en listed in resoiso to the president's call, but were afterwards rejected by tho medical examiner, the sum granted being 1.50 per day from the date of their enlistment to the date of their rejection, inclusive. It was held in the sen ate that money could not bo appropriated by Joint resolution, and therefore the matter rofcred to the judiciary cominltteo, and Senator Fulton, chairman of that committee, reported a hill omlxlying the features of Mr. I'lagg's resolution, and this bill became a law. Senate joint resolutions 12, and 13 by Daly of J-ako, extend tho congratula tions, admiration, etc., of the jiooplo of tho State to Oregon's soldiers In tho Philippines. (CON'TI.NUKII ON I'AOK I.)

Havana, May 16. General Gomez lias Informed General Brooke today that ho could no longer act as a representative of tho Cuban army In tho distribution of tho $3,000,000 for tho payment of the Cuban troops. Havana, May 15. Oon. Gome said ho had arrived at tho decision, with great reluctance and most friendly feellngi towards Gon. Hrooke, jwrsonally and olllcinlly, but felt ho coul d not longer represent tho Cuban army because a cabal composed of many subordinate commanders existed to oppose and If jwislble to defeat his his plans for partitioning the money. Therefore ho thought If he left Brooke, free, tho latter would bo able to act with eqtiul effectlveuess alone. Brooke oxpuwed sympathy with Go mez and said he regretted the position ho had taken but If thu decision was unchangeable, ho would proceed to deal with tho uuestlon alone. Ho is deter mined not to bo trilled with. Ho has rolls of privates and non-commissioned ollleorswho are willing to accept f75 each and thss amount will be offered on tho conditions previously laid down. Forcible disarmament of tho Cuban troops will be tho ultimate proceoduio provided evonts of tho next two or three weeks show such action to lie necessary. Tacoma, Mny 15.
