Jim Roach of Meacham, Given Crown Oa Second Yote. (Pendleton East Oregonlan.) Approximately 50,000 people wit nessed the third annual Round-up, according to estimates made by the directors this morning. The paid ad missions amounted to something ovei 40,000, which with the courtesy gueste ; and those allowed to enter Saturdaj without paying after the gates had been closed will bring the total up to 50,000. According to Treasurer George A. Hartman, the cash receipts for the three days will reach over $35,000 and under $36,000, which is $15,000 ap proximately more than the revenue from the 1911 Bhow. ... This la more than satisfactory to the I management for it will give them a I considerable surplus after all ex- penses are paid and with which tbey can further Improve the park and pre pare for the show next year. Praise Everywhere. Everybody Is congratulating every body else on the wonderful and un precedented success of tbe Round-up. So pleased were the visitors Saturday that every Pendletonlan upon whom they were able to lay bands was made to feel that he or she was entirely re sponsible for the staging of such a wonderful exhibition. None of the compliments were qualified. No one La Grande! .taught of ra::'.-.Ins iha round-up sac oud to any entertainment of any kind or description In any age or clime. It was the one best In their way of thinking and they are all going away enthusiastic boosters for the city and Its pleasure Institution. ' Tbe Best Yet," Sajs Judge. C. F. Howard of Denver, the chair man of the Judges at the Rouna-ui, declared this morning that the Round up la unquestionably the best show ol Its kind ever staged. "I have seen them all," be said, "have traveled with them .gone to Europe with Buffalo Bill, staged them myself and acted as judge many times, but none ever ap p roach ed the standard set by tbe Round-up." Derisions Are Popular. One thing that Is helping In the good feeling after tbe show is the fact that the decisions of the Judges were popular. Not 'a criticism has been heard from spectators or from performers. All seem satisfied that L. W. Minor of Wallowa, was tbe best broncho buster at the show. There was some little dissatisfaction ex pressed yesterday when It was re ported that the directors had reversed tbe derision of the judges in the pony express race on the grounds that Ja son Stanley, declared the winner, had lost one of his horses during bis last race. However, today, the di rectors announced that the decision of tbe judges stands and that Jason Stanley for the second time is the champion pony express rider of the world. Roach Is Champion Steer Roper. However, Dell Blanchett has not been allowed to retain the title of champion steer roper and that honor has been given to Jim Roach of Mea cham, who was originally named as second place winner. Blancett had roped on Friday and hU time was poor. However, he appeared again on the field Saturday as the representa tive of Dick Parker, who had his leg broken during the Friday wild horse race, and surce eded In throwing his steer In the fastest time of the week. However, it was finally ruled that he had no right to appear for Parker and yet, fishing to give Parker a fair deal, the directors voted him $150 and con ferred the title and the first prize on Roach, the legitimate winner. Jason Stanley was advanced from third to second and Charles Reinhart, of this city, was given third money. The opinion of the cowboys over the Judging of tbe events was reflect ed by Jim Clark, the John Day stock man, this morning when he declared It was absolutely fair and Impartial. "We all agree that Minor made the best ride," he said, "and we know he didn't have any pull, for he was almost unknown when he entered." Mr. Howard, In speaking of the de cision In the bucking contest, declared the judges were of one opinion and that they had taken their notes sep arately. "I never saw JMnor before I came here,' declared the judge, "but to my mind he was the best rider and entitled to the prize. Some people have criticized us for leaving more of the cowboys who made good rides out of the finals, but we were not Judging on the rides altogether. . We made.it plain to the contestants' that we would , take Into consideration "all of the things which make for good horsemanship, for instance, how the man approaches the animal, how he puts on his saddle and how he mounts There were at least two contestants who made good rides but who were eliminated because they grabbed hold of the horn with one hand and the contel with the other, Just like a ten derfoot, when tl.ey mounted. "Everyone has treated us fine here and the directors In particular have showed us every courtesy. You have a great show and I hope to be back to see it next year."
