Review Another Fine Racing Program is Enjoyed FAIR PROVINC BIC SUCCESS Improved Grounds and the Splendid Exhibits are the Admiration of Every Visitor With a continuance of ideal weather and the opening of the speed program yesterday In such lively fashion, there is an Increasing at tendance at the district fair this af ternoon. A fine racing programme Is again offered, and between the events the crowd is entertained with music by Ok Koseburg Band. While the livestock exhibit does not offer nR largo and as varied a lot of animals ns have been seen nt previous fairs, the quality was never better. The pavilion is taxed to its utmost ca pacity with the unexcelled display of orchard, farm, domestic nnd indus trial products that compel the nd mlration of all who see them. Many are the compliments passed upon lUV UICUU U11U (IIVIUII5 U1ICUIUI1-U .'I the entire grounds. Judge McCarthy, of Snn Fran"'""v who is officiating as starter at the race track, is the best man in tn.u line of duty who ever stepped into the judges' stand. Just before the first race began, he drew a round of applause from the spectators by giv ing the drivers to understand that no scoring or "jockeying" would be tolerated. "Every race must be run after you leave the wire nnd not he fore then," he said In a manner that showed he meant business. Drivers and Jockeys believed so at any rate, because none of the speed events were marred in their starts by that annoying trickery so familiar to persons whovnvt visited fairs here In the past. Every race was run strictly on Us merits and the crowd was thoroughly satisfied. Racing Notes. ' Wednesday's racing was featured by a seven-eighths mile dash for n purse of $200. This was captured by L. Galbralth's Hector, after a neck-and-neck dash down the home stretch with J. W. Whitsett's St. Salvonla. Time 1:32. Green Law, entered by M. H. May, finished third. King Kohr, the old local favorite, owned by W. W. Cardwell, got fourth plnce, and Iduno, entered by Stanley Short, came in fifth. Hector, St. Salvino and King Kohr will fight It out In a mile dash this afternoon. In the past, Cardwell's sorrel stallion was a dangerous con tendor In long distances, and the mile event todny will demonstrate whether or not he has "come back." Wednesday's 'closing race waB a half-mller between two saddle ponies, ladies riding. J. L. Knight's Thomas Flyer, ridden by Miss Myth Hanan, was beuten by Joe Smith's Hess, with MIsb Beryl Singleton In the saddle. No event on the programme was more enjoyed by the crowd than this one. Both of the plucky young ladles made their mounts do their best. Hess' time was 0:55. The second and deciding heat of the 2:25 pace saw an accident, htit one that had no serious results. Holly Brand, entered by E. C. Kent, In attempting to puss Sully Younger, owned by Peter Cook, struck one of the wheels of the sulky drawn by the mare, then swerved suddenly. hurling his driver to the ground. Left guideless.

After nearly four days of wrangl ing, the hearing was finished in the local U. S. land office this afternoon, of the case of Amos Howard vs. F. M. Cook in regard to the latter's timber Inrd clcim In the Myrtle Creek di.tilct, as reported In Tues day's Review. The feature of today's proceedings wes the attempt to im peech the testimony of Irving P. Gaidner, one of y . Cook's witnesses. The witnerses called to tebilfy against Mr. Gardner were Forest Supervisor S. C. Brtrum and V. V. Harpham. of til Is city, and Roseoe Overman, of Myrtle Cre;k. The witnesses for the defense who testified to the good character of Mr. Gardner were T. R. Sheridan. W. S. Hn"ion und Sum .losephson, of Roseburg, aud Thos. I.. Brewer, 0. A. Strong and Thos. Dunnavln, of Myrtle Creek. The case has been marked with bitter ness throughout the henrinir And strong allegations of probable actions for perjury are heard. The case will be taken under advisement by the officials of the land office. Two experienced newspaper men from Marlon county, John Alden Senbiiry and John H. Blnkely, after securing the support of a large ma joiity of the budness men of Bandon, have defiplte'y decldad to publish a dally paper In that Ibilvln-i Coos coun'y seeport.

This afternoon the official count was completed of last Saturday's primary election In Douglas county. There was no change In the results hitherto announced. The entire vote of Pass Creek precinct had to be thrown out as. neither of the sheets had been signed or certified to by the judges and clerks of election in that precinct. The same was true on both the Republican and Democratic tally sheets and the canvassing board had no discretion in the matter ex cept to reject the entire vote of that precinct. This matter was' referred to Dlst. Atty. Brown and Judge Ham ilton and they both held that returns not certified to by the election judges and clerks of the precinct should not be counted. Elimination of the re turns from that precinct- will not make any difference in the election r defeat of any candidate. It leaves H. D. Reed a margin of only one vote over J. H. Austin for joint representative In this county. - It Is understood that Mr. Reed has a con siderable mrrgin in Jackson county, however. On the Republican ticket the totals are somewhat reduced but there are no changes In the relative standing of any of the candidates by the dropping out of Pass Creek precinct. The failure to sign the returns from that precinct was doubt less an oversight on part of the judges and clerks there. The summary of votes for this county follows: For Congressman W. C.

SARATOGA, Sept. 29 The Roose- velt band wagon Is crowded and more are climbing on, as It Is plain his faction will select the state Republi can ticket at the closing session of the convention. Complete re-organl zation of the party is predicted in New York state. The state.-, party management will be placed . In new hands and the old leaders dropped. It Is asserted that Herbert Parsons will be chosen state chairman to succeed Woodruff. Roosevelt de clared that the platform adopted yesterday was progressive.

Bryan, today, commenting on the Republican platform adopted at the New York 'convention, said the Roosevelt brand of progressive Is not what Westerners call Insurgency. It favors the stand-pat policies too much In praising the Taft administra tion and the Payne tariff bill. Democratic Convention, ROCHESTER, N. Y., Sept. 29. Though the Democratic state .con vention opened today, the general public opinion Is that the slate won't be perfected until night. Charles Murphy, of Tammany - Hall', who dominates the convention, says he has no one to put forward as a can didate. Edward Shepherd, of Brook lyn, apparently Is leading for Gov ernor.

"Could I ever look upon farm life as dull and monotonous after reading dear David Grayson? What Is more beautiful and peaceful than to take you of a stormy winter evening, and, sitting before the great old-fashioned fireplace, commune with the great minds and hearts that put life, heart soul and Individuality Into your pages? Farm life Is Idealized and ennobled for me through such in fluences. "Of the thousands who will write brilliant appreciation of your dear magazine, can one have more cuusu for tender feelings than the little farm wife in the far West, who, while raising her poultry, milking her pet Jersey cows and attending the many duties of life on a farm, Is enabled to become one In mind und heart with the great minds of the day?
