OUR BOYS MUST STAY.
No Immediate Prospects of Their Return
From Manila.

1t was hoped that some arrangements
would be made whereby Oregon's SOL
dier boys might soon return home.
However, neither those who have en-
listed nor their friends would ask for
their recall if their services are yet need
ed, for did they not enlist with the un-
derstanding that they belonged to their
country to be used for the maintenance
of it's principles and to uphold It's
honor?
The following dispatch puts quietus
on any hopes which might have been
entertained as to their speedy return to
home and friends:
Washington, Nov 14-Adjutant-Gen
Corbin said today, when asked if there
was any prospect of the early return of
the Oregon volunteers, that there ie not
at present. and that there are no regi-
ments now available to take their place.
There has of late been a strong demand
to have the volunteers at Manila brought
back to this country, but all such re-
quests had TO be refused, pending the
peace negotiations. If it is determined
in the end to maintain garrison at Ma
Mia, congress will / ave to provide regu-
lar troops to replace the volunteers, ali
OF whom are anxious to return to this
country,
While relatives and friends of those
who are to be held at Manila do not
ask for their return unless their stay
there is deemed unnecessary, yet they
do ask, and it should be demanded by
our governor, that they be treated as
human beings. While reports are con-
aicting concerning their treatment,
enough has been written to assure us
that the government or it's officers are
remiss IN duty; and to such degree
that their slackness becomes criminal.
The very fact that the men have been de-
MED that which rightly belonged to
them, or required to purchase what
had already been given them, is proof
sufficient; but such extracts as the fol-
lowing, taken from letters written by
men whose statements we cannot deny,
make even those who have no loved ones
who are compelled to stand such treat
ment, fairly wild, or almost determined
to snatch them as brands from the
burning. One letter says:
"Of the quarters provided US, you can.
not depict the horrors of our present
Ones We are quartered in an old Span
ish building, the closet of which is in
the same room. The sewerage is de-
fective, and the stencil which arises from
this cesspool of disease is beyond de-
scription. There is no smell in America
equal to it. To reach the closet proper,
we have to wade through human offal,
thus laying the foundation for the fevers
which are prevalent, and generally end
ing in death. We are forced to sleep in
this loathsome atmosphere, and if we
were not the strong, healthy men that
we are, could not stand it. AS it is, we
arise in the morning with headaches and
sick stomachs. No wonder our hospitals
are. full. Could this be remedied? OF
course it could; but the officers only
laugh and do nothing"
How much can be cleaned by reading
between the few lines of the following:

IL in the event of an outbreak of hostil-
titles the belligerents would ultimately
be responsible for the capture. the dam
age or the loss which might be inflicted
on the cities OF neutral powers. The
Marquis Visconti Venosta replied by
telegraph as follows: "If, contrary to
our hopes. war should break out be-
tween Spain and the United States. the
kings government will not fail to as
sociate itself with all the powers in all
measures that appear best calculated
to render less serious for neutrals a
war between the states which did not
adhere to the declaration of Paris, 1856"
This application and the guarded ma
ture Of the reply give a measure of the
apprehensions which are naturally felt
in all responsible circles at the present
aspect of affairs.

The Council will Probably Talk Itself
Hoarse at To-NiGhrs Meeting.
There is liable to be all kinds of fun
at to-night's council meeting. Most Of
the fun. 1t is expected. will be furnished
by the sewer question. At last Tues
days council meeting a row was stirred
up when the question of accepting the
plans for the West Fourth street main
sewer came up. Three of the aldermen
present wanted the sewer built with
money taken out Of the city treasury,
and they voted to accept the plans. but
the other -four didn't want 1t hat way.
One of them sale that if the sewer was
to be built, the city ought to be bonded
for the urpos
Then after a time a resolution was
introduced by Fitzpatrick to bond the
city in the sum of $40, 900, to run for 10
years and to carry 6 per cent interest.
In introducing the resolution he said
that he would rather see the sewer
built with money k from the city
treasury, but that he wanted IL built
at n rate. The resolution carried,
only one of the sever aldermen present
voting against IL.
And there the matter stands, IA
there will probably be some develop
ments tonight. 1t is more than prob
able that the council chamber will hold
more aldermen tonight than IL has
for some time, as the sewer question
is one hat is of interest to every ward
In the city. Heretofore when the coun-
Gil holds a meeting on pay day nights
the chamber generally goes begging for
a quorum, but 1t is thought that pay
day or no pay day, to-night's meeting
will bring all of the councilmen out,
except DIR. Mckenzie, who is in the
East.
The Fourth street main sewer, while
being the one in which most of the in
terest is centered. is not the only sewer
that is going to be talked about. At
the last council meeting, a numerously
signed protest was sent in against the
of Improvement district No. 6.
Improvement district No. 6embraces the
proposed sewer through the alley be-
tween Park avenue n Third street, |
east of Main. The protestants who
signed the document are large prop |
owners on Park avenue, and they
complain that they already have con- |
nected with the Park avenue sewer and
they do not want to be made to pay for |
sewer down the alley back of |
their property. The people on Third
street have not been heard from so far, |
but they will have a petition In to- |
asking that the sewer be built, |
and the two sides will probably have |
TO say to each other.
1t is claimed by the property owners
on Park avenue that instead of build
Park avenue and Third and also be-
tween Third and Fourth, one sewer
down Third street would do tust as
well for both The building of sewers
IN the streets In objected TO by many
on the ground that the streets would
dug up half the time. and that every
lime q man put In q sewer connection.
