Dr. Clarence True Wilson, militant dry, and E. Clemens Horst, unyielding wet, will debate the prohibition, ques tion in San Pranolsco within three weeks, It was indicated yesterday when Dr. Wilson confirmed reports he had accepted Horst'a challenge to debate. 1 Dr. Wilson, head of the Methodist board of temperance, prohibition, and , publie morals, spoke in San Francisco 1 Wednesday night, and in his address before the Norwegian Danish Pacific Coast conference, picked up the gauntlet thrown down by Horst when the 18th amendment foe learned Dr. Wilson was In town. Horst will appear In behalf of. the crusaders, the association against the prohibition amendment, and other anti-prohibition organizations. He said Dr. Wilson "gladly accepted the challenge and declared arrangements will bo concluded shortly, probably to hold the debate In' the civic audi torium. In his address, Dr. Wilson remarked on a few matters political, among which was the assertion that "Sena tor Dwight Morrow of New Jersey does not owe his election to his liberal platform.- but because he is Lindbergh's, father-in-law." Tho Methodist temperance head bitterly assailed Ruth Hanna Mc cormick, who ran In Illinois for the office of United States senator. "She is a treacherous woman of perfidy," he asserted, "a traitor and double -crosser. She created such confusion In Illinois the legislature voted to repeal the state enforcement act." Bi Wilson also had a comment on the Wickersham report and Judge Clark's decision on the 18th. amend ment. "The decision was light-headed, and the Judge consulted newspapers and politicians rather than legal authorities, while the Wickersham re port was a dry report from a wet committee, the greatest victory for prohibition In years." Every effort of liberals to discredit prohibition, he said, has resulted in a victory for the drys. . Beatrice Tunstallis Condition Is Worse PORTLAND.

This fea ture on each of the thrco afternoons has proven to be one of the things that has gripped the audiences and with a third, or tno animais noaeiiL, It left the question what would It have been like with the almost 350 head of fine stock In the arena at one time? The races yesterday aftornoon were good, tho lntereht perhaps being keener bocause of the presence of the horse, Pollard's Field Marshal, son of the famous Man o' War. There was some scratching yesterday so that tho entries in the different events were not so numerous as on the first day of the show. Before the afternoon had progressed very far, it was very evident that the feel ing of the grand stand and bleachers was very largely for the youthful rider, Wright. No matter what the handicaps were in the start, young Wright made up for them and in every event in which he rode, he came under the wire first. The combina tion Field Marshal and Wright fur nished an exceptional thrill during the Union derby which was the big race of the afternoon.
