Returning volunteers who have re-
Gently arrived in this country from the
Philippines, say it is impossible for a
white man to long endure active EN-
ployment on the islands. Men cannot
last but short time in an active cam
paign, for the heat and attendant dis
eases overcome them, and they must
enter the hospitals after brief time
in the field. Certainly that climate
was not made for white men, nor were
they made for that climate. But there
is race that can endure it. The
negroes of the South being used to in
tense heat could live comfortably in
the Philippines for years and carry on
an active campaign. Then why should
they not be sent there as soldiers?
1t is the undisputed policy of the
government to continue the war until
the insurgents have been brought to
terms, and it is evident that large
army of not less than 100, 900 men will
be required. There is surplus of
colored men in the Southern states
who would, no doubt. readily enlist if
given an opportunity. They are out of
employment and would go into the
army for the sake of living. That
they make good soldiers was demons
trated in Cuba, where they won dis
tinction for their bravery and fortitude.
They are the men who should make
up the army in the Philippines, for
they can endure the climate, and re-
moving them from the oyerstocked
labor markets of the South would tend
to better the condition of those who
remain.

UMATILLA CROP SAFE.

That Is the Opinion of the East Ore
gonian.
Following is from the East Oregon
ian concerning the condition of crops
in Umatilla county and the effect the
rain has had:
There has as yet been no injury to
the 1899 crop by the two rains of the
present month, that is, not any injury
that need be taken into account, for it
is comparatively nothing. The benefit
to garden truck probably will Offset the
slight damage done the wheat.
The first rain was followed by ideal
weather, and the grain was.so thorough.
ly dried and so quickly that the quality
of the berry was not injured in the
least.
The second rain was heavier, and
the damp, cloudy weather of longer
duration, SO that the stacks were wet
more thoroughly than the first time.
But, it appears to be the general
opinion that there was done no dam
age, for the weather has now cleared
up, and the prospects are for good
weather fl ON this on.
We're more rains to come, the effect
would be problematical, and contin-
uance of the conditions that haye OBJ
tanned for the past ten days would not
be pleasing TO the wheat man, buyer
DR. seller. The whole situation may be
summed up in these words: Good |
conditions from now op will see the
1899 crop gathered with no injury from
aims. More rains will almost inevi-
ably damage the grain and lower the
,rade Of the crop on the market.
