Thehonors of the day were divided between Barney Oldfleld, with nla 200 horsepower Bent machine, and C O. King, with his Maxwell 30 horsepower stock car. Oldfleld lowered his previous record of one mile to SI 5-6, which Is a new coast record for the circular track. With the exception of this performance, Oldfleld had to take second place in the list of racing honors, as the world's champion met defeat in both the five and fifteen mile handicap events, and in both races King and bis Maxwell were the victors. In fact, King proved the surprise of the meet, driving all of his races with much Judgment and taking the turns with his car as close to the fence as did Oldfleld. In the five mile handicap, Oldfleld drove his Knox racer to the utmost, but the handicap was too strong and he could not get the lead away from King. Not only in the handicap events did King and his Max-; well prove stars of the first order, but in one of the first events of the day, the five mile race for cars costing from $1200 to $1600, which was one of the beetmatches of the meet The time for the five mile handicap was as follows: Maxwell, King, 4.40.30; Oakland, Nelson, 4.48.25; Chalmers, West, 4.49.30: Auto Car , finished fourth, and the Knox car, Barney Oldfleld driving, fifth. In the event number eight, ten miles free-for-all handicap, King and his Maxwell again were the winners, the Maxwell's time being 811.30. J. B. Whiteman & Son i 108.

Pendleton will send a strous dele gatlon to hear Hon. Joe Folk, who speaks at the La Grande Chautauqua assembly on July 7th. This is tho information given out by Pre. 'dent Tod Rinehart and Secretary , Georgo Cochran who returned from the coun ty seat of Umatilla county last even lng after having spread the Chautao qua gospel to that city and posteu window cards. ; They say there la a move on foot to get a special train from Pendleton to carry the Fol!s ad mirers with every indication of suc cess. Pendleton feels very kindly toward La Grande and is delighted at being permitted to attend a Chan tauqua assembly in Eastern Oregon. While they wish the event was be held in their own city they do not in any way regret that La Grande took the lead In this matter. That there are still a few eimon pure democrats in Pendleton will be demonstrated when the train for Folk day is manned. Years ago when C. 8. JackBon, better known to newspa per men as "Jack," started the East Oregonian democracy was strong In Umatilla county. Then came a, reac tion and "Jack" was about the only old line democrat at the polls. He stuck fast and won a number over to his way of thinking and established a following that has never left him. All of these men are ardent Folk supporters and most of them will be here on July 7th. Then there are a large number of people in Pendleton who admire Folk regardless of his political affiliations and they will also come which will increase the num ber materially. If Baker Clty comes through with her old stalwarts, La Grande will re Beinble a democratic convention on July 7th.
