Last Trip For the Oregon

. bling OF Cervera's fleet and ominous
demonstrations in both countries made
war between Spain and the United
States inevitable. Disturbing rumors
as TO the strength of Cerveras fleet
led the navy department to call on the
Oregon. On March 10, Captain Charles
Edgar Clark, in command of the Ore
gon. steamed south. SiXty-seven days
later the weather observer at Jupiter
inlet notified the telegraph office at
Jupiter. Florida, that a strange war
ship had anchored there. There was
very great tension along the coast IN
til the identity of the ship was estab-
lished II was the Oregon. The voy-
age OF 14.706 miles was in itself a feat,
and Captain Clark's conduct at San
tiago was more notable. After the
Spanish fleet had been crushed.
Schley's famous signal 10 Clark, Ore
gon. well done!" Immediately became
one OF the slogans of the war.
So it is fitting. says the Waterloo
Times-Tribune that the Oregon should
lead the way through the Panama ca
nal and even more fitting is the fact
that many of the men who served IN
der Captain Clark on that famous jour
ney around the horn, will participate.
All who have left the navy have been
invited by the secretary to reenlist for
the cruise and have been assured OF
an honorable discharge when the vet
eran old battleship arrives in the har-
Dor at San Francisco.
II viii be a glorious final chapter 10
the history OF the Oregon.
