Second Oregon Men Receive Dis
charges and Pay.

San Francisco, Aug. S.-The Second
Oregon regiment was mustered out of
the service today. Each man received
his discharge papers from the muster
ing officer and passed on to the pay
master, who gave him what money was
due him.
Most of the men were assembled for
the last time previous to their dissolu-
ton as a regiment. Their colonel, Gen
eral Owen Summers, addressed them
with a few words of farewell and ad-
vice. He cautioned them not to do
anything in the short time that remain
ed before they were finally disbanded
to reflect on the excellent record they
had made. The regiment will remain in
camp until this afternoon. They will
assemble in a body and proceed to the
ferry thence to the train for home.
They will be escorted by some of the
commands in camp.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

From our Regular COrrespO ndent.
WASHINGTON, Jan, %, 1899.
The speech of Representative James
Hamilton Lewis, Of Washington, in
which he pilloried Representative
Grosvenor, of Ohio, numerically, just
after Representatives Bailey, Of Texas,
Carmack, Of Tenn, and Simpson, Of
Kansas, had peppered him with short
retorts, was a. fine an example Of the
proper use of sarcasm in a speech as
had been given on the floor Of the
house for years. No extract can give
correct idea of Mr. Lewis speech, but
the following, which came after his
charging GrOsvenOr with posing a. the
exclusive custodian Of the patriotism
of the country, and with ringing the
changes on one speech, always ending
by pointing dramatically to the Stars
and Stripes behind the Speakers desk,
will give some idea Of his style:

The Hawaiian Bill.

For some unaccountable reason
the Hawaiian bill has been seeming
shelved. Weeks ago the announce
ment was made that the committee
in charge was prepared to report
it, and yet nothing has been done
about it, nor has any definite time
been fixed for it's consideration.
The delay is the more difficult to
understand because the measure is
one of some urgency. Since Hawaii
has been annexed it is assuredly the
duty of Congress to provide form
of government for it's people, and
bring the administration of the ISL
ands into conformity with that of
the rest of the United States. The
present condition is one of uncer-
tainty and cannot fail to be prejudi-
cial to the business of the Hawaiians
and to some extent of all who have
commercial relations with them
