A CRITICAL TIME
During the Battle of San
tiagO.

The Packers Mt the Hattie Of Santiago de Cuh,
were all Heroes. The Heroic Efforts In Gst.
Ting Ammunition and Rations TO the Front
Saved the Day.
L. e. BUTLER, of pack-train No. 3
writing from Santiago, De Cuba, on Univ
23rd, says: "We all had diarrhoea in
more or less violent form, and when we
landed we had no time to see a doctor
for it was a case of rush and rush NIGHT
and day to keep the troops supplied
with ammunition and ration, but thanks
to Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy, we were able to
keep at work and keep our health; in
act, l sincerely believe that at one crit
ical time this medicine was the indirect
saviour of our army, for if the packers
had been unable to work there would
have been no way on way of getting sup
plies to the front. There were no roads
that wagon train could use. My COM
rade and myself had the good fortune to
lay in supply of this medicine for our
pack-train before we left Tampa, and 1
know in four cases it absolutely saved
life."
The above letter was written to the
manufacturers of this medicine, the
Chamberlain Medicine Co., Des Moines,
Iowa. For sale by o. o. Krogstad.

necessary, so that the state will not
receive interest from the county on
the state tax remaining unpaid after
April I. This is the present law.
Since the creation of the state
board of equalization, Multnomah
county never manages to have the
tax roll ready to commence collec-
tions before April I, and the state
has large interest bill against
Multnomah county each year.
This would be remedied by max
ing taxes delinquent to the state
not before June or July I. County
Treasurer Hoyt has for some time
been holding $4,000 interest now
claimed by the state, hoping the
legislature will pass relief bill.

What will our next state legisla-
ture do to remedy the present cum
bersome and out-of-date assessment
law? 1t is unworthy and a great
blot upon our statutes. Everybody
kicks about the enormous tax paid
every year, but no one finds salts
factory remedy. A remedy is what
the taxpayer wants. Kicking is
superfuous.
Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1898-09-23

How many dollars do you sup
pose Lincoln county has paid over
as state taxes on property which
has never paid a cent of tax into
the county treasury. 1t is not ex-
travagance so much that makes
the rate of taxation so high, but
the slow, 'aborious, unjust state
assessment law. See that it is
remedied this coming Legislature.

SALUTATORY.
c. L. GOWELL.

OlCe AGAIN, alter lle ldpSe vi
several years, we carefully point
our trusty Faber and climb labori-
ously upon another editorial tripod.
To us it is no new position and yet
VIC assume it with reluctance. Not
because we do not love the work,
noe because Of any former i'll sue
cess, not because we are stranger,
not because we are friendless in our
county, but because we realize how
much of the prosperity and welfare
of this locality depends upon the
policy pursued by the leading local
newspaper, aud we do wish to pur-
sue just the right policy. In
sparsely settled localities aud Ill
small towns the acme Of success
lies in the united action, the har-
mony of its people. What will stay
tie advancement aud prosperity of
a town whose citizens always pull
together? In contrast, what more
sorely retards its growth than about
a three-coruered, selfish, factional
fight? Toledo and Lincoln county
have always work ed in harmony for
public veal and progress and The
LEADER most sincerely desires to
be a factor in more closely uniting
the bond Of fellowship which now
prevails. ,s .t.
In politics we are Republican
and believe in upholding the hands
of the administration as far as it IS
possible, but in December we do
not imagine ourselves in the midst
of red hot June campaign. We
drop it. Other matters are OF more
importance to Our little world.
The LEADER will not be per-
sonal paper-will not be constantly
on the alert for pointers derogatory
TO any citizen. 1t will be above
that class of Journalism.
There are but few of us in Lin
coin county and if we prosper and
develop as we should, we must not
quarrel. The people OF this county
need neat, live, rustling paper
located at the county seat. THE
LEADER will strive earnestly 10 be
that paper. A little help from each
one in our county will enable us tc
publish such a paper and we hope
10 receive it and merit it. Hence
let us all put our shoulders to the
wheel and make Old Lincoln coun'
ty and her people the peers OF the
state.
In conclusion, we are common
people with common cause before
us. Let us join i'll making thai
common cause a "bloomin' Sue
cess. We can if we but will, ant
we will.

THREE CENTURIES HENCE.

A writer has made the prophecy
that in three hundred years from
now the world will only know
three languages-English, Russian
and Chinese. The English lam
guage will be spoken all over North
and South America, in Australia,
India, Africa, New Zealand and
the islands of Australia and the
Pacific. The Russian tongue will
have conquered all Europe except
Great Britain and all Asia except
India. Chinese will hold sway
over the rest of the world. If pre-
sent indications go for anything it
is just possible that in three hun
dred years China, as nation will
have ceased to exist.

EFFECTS OF CYCLING.

A curious effect of hard cycling
is reported from France. Out of
the last batch of conscripts, no few
er than eight widely known cyclists
were rejected as being physically
incapable of military duty. Dis
eases of the heart were the chief
reasons for their rejection. This
causes profound establishment, all
classes thinking them at least fit to
be accepted as military cyclists.

A CATHOLIC GUILD.

There is movement to organize
guild of Catholic authors and
writers of the United States. 1t is
to be a national affair and number
among its members some distin-
guished writers. Archbishop Cor
rigan approves of it. Its aim will
be to place within the reach OF
young writers the experience of old
er and successful authors, and chief
ly to promote the more thorough
cultivation of the Catholic spirit in
every department of letters.

WASHINGTON, May 27.-Col.
Harrison Gray Otis, editor of the
Los Angeles Times, was to. day
nominated by President Mckinley
to be Brigadier- General Of Volun-
teers. The nomination was GER
tain, and the only question was the
time when it was to be sent into
the Senate. 1t is certain opposition
will be made, but the friends of
Col Otis believe that they will be
able to carry the confirmation.
General Otis, who is a fine, we'll
preserved man of ford complexion
with military mustache and goatee
and striking features, saw hard
service in the Civil War. He served
on the Union side throughout the
entire conflict, entering as private
and rising by successive promotions
in the field through all the inter-
vening grades to than Of Lieutenant
Colonel of United States Volunteers
by brevet, this distinction being
conferred upon him by the Presi
dent, for gallant and meritorious
services throughout the war" as
his commission reads. This pro-
motion as also that of brevet Major,
was given him at the close of hos
tilities upon the unsolicited recon-
mendation of Maj or-General R, B.
Hayes, subsequently President
Hayes.
During the forty-nine months
service in the field he took part in
fifteen engagements, received two
wounds in battle, gained seven
we'll earned promotions, and COM
handed his regiment while yet a
captain, being at the time the
senior officer present for duty.
His military service was render
ed in two Of the proudest of Ohio's
res nents-frst in the Twelfth
Ohio Volunteers for three years,
and next in the famous Twenty
third Ohio Veteran Volunteer In
fantry, to which he was transferred
in 1864 through the consolidation
of the two commands.
The Twelfth had it's just fame
preserved in the archives of the
War Department in the form of a
battle roll embracing fourteen en-
gagemeuts with the enemy, with
total losses in killed and wounded
aggregating $50 officers and men.
The Twenty-third participated in
seventeen engagements, and lost in
action, from first to last, SCI officers
and men killed and wounded out of
total enrolment of 223o, being
more than IS per cent. The Twenty
third is classed in history with the
celebrated Three Hundred Fight
ing Regiments" whose military
record is given in Colonel Fox's
valuable work, "Regimental Los
ses in the American Civil War,
IS6J-IS65," each of which three
hundred regiments lost over 100
officers and men killed and wound
ed in action.
Colonel Otis came to California
in 1876, and since 1882 has con-
trolled and conducted the Los An
geles Times. AS citizen, business
