ASSISTANT REPUBLICANS,

''The Republicans Of Oregon have now
several thousand votes more than all oppo-
sitlon. In 1892 they had some thousands less
than the Democrats and Populsts Where
are they getting the recruits? From the
Populists or from the Democrats? How did
it come that in 1852 the Populists alone came
nearer whipping the Republicans than the
combination did at the election last month";

GIVE 1T A DEMOCRATIC FLAVOR.

Our Democratic brethren felt that the
Peoples party had not been sufficiently
swallowed in this state, and so they have
sent for Senator Jones, of Arkansas, and
he is to wash down the remnants at a
Democratic banquet.
Jones is the man who introduced bill
for the issuance of HALF A BILLION
OF NEW GOLD BONDS, under the pre-
tense of carrying on a war that has cost
$l5O.OOO,OOO, and a large part of this

Havana. Sept. 20.-An official meet
ing of the Spanish commission on
evacuation has been held for the pur-
pose of considering the Spanish form
OF evacuation and with the object OF
informing the American commission
Of the exact number and the best
means Of embarking them.
Yesterday morning there was sent on
board the Resolute a sealed document
supposed to contain statement OF the
results of last nights conference. 1t
is understood that it is proposed TO
start the evacuation from the east TO
ives. embarking the troops at the ports
of Gibara. Neuvias, Cienfuegos and
Havana. The official statement Of the
number of Spanish soldiers in the
island is said to place the aggregate at
100000. and it is understood it's pro-
posed that the men shall carry with
them their arms, ammunitions, mate
rails and equipments. 1t is estimated
that the end of February will have
come before the evacuation OF the
island is completed, as the soldiers
must embark in Spanish vessels. 1t is
suggested that this will be al advant-
age to both countries, the United states
having an opportunity to acclimate it's
men during the winter months, as 1t is
proposed that the American govern
ment shall land troops to occupy each
post simultaneously with its evacua-
ton, not leaving any post unguarded
at any time.
Rumors that have been put in circu-
ldtlOn To the effect that Gen Wade
president of the American evacuation
commission, is i'll with yellow fever
may be denied absolutely. Gen. Wade
is looking the picture of health. He
brealfasted yesterday morning with

staffs will remove to the Trotcha hotel
at Wedado, which has been put in ex-
cellent sanitary condition. The gen
eral health aboard the steamer Reso-
lutte is good.
