WON BY LONZO, THE FAVORITE Cavalier Takes the Five-Hundred-Dollar Pacing Race Running Events Won by Gaucho and v 1 St. Phllipplna. SALEM. Or.. Sept- 12. (Special.) A large crowd, a track that was lightning fast, and a day that was made especially for splendid racing marked the opening of the racing here today. The crowd that swelled the betting ring, the horsemen, and even the band, had a decided Port land atmosphere. As is usual with the opening day's rac ing at affairs of this sort, there was al most two hours$delay in sending off the first event, a baby race for 2-year-olds. It was the opening stake event of the fair, and five out of the six starters faced Starting Judge H. B. Wood. The race was won by Clever Byron's Lonzo, a hot favorite in the pool-selling. Out of the six entries only Mike Duff was scratched, and out of the five that started four were Zombro colts, and all Ave of the young Fters were Oregon-bred horses. This fact made the race easily the feature of the day, and Instead of It being no contest, as such colt races usually are, each of the three heats was a horse race. The first heat was won by Prlncella J., a Bonner N. B. filly, and tl)ose who took the field against Lonzo reaped quite a harvest- After Considerable scoring, the babies were sent away, but Lonzo rolled like a rudderless ship, and Driver Sawyer had a hard time keeping him steady. This heat was trotted in 2:35, but in his work outs Lonzo had shown footing at a much lower mark, and again he ruled favorite. The second heat he won with ease In 2:31. and after the heat Sawyer was called Into the Judges' stand for an ex planation. He explained that the colt had started without toe plates in the first heat, and that was the cause of his un steadiness. Sawyer came right back in the third and last heat, and after allow ing Prlncella J. to lead part of the way down the back stretch, he sent the son of Zombro along and won the heat pulled up In 2:32. It took four long-drawn heats to settle the 2:20 pace for a purse of 5500. After breaking badly in the first heat and finish ing absolutely last. Cavalier, driven by TV. G. Durfee, finished second in the second heat, and then came back and won the race by taking the next two heats. Cav alier and Helcne were favorites. Lance took the lead with Helcne at the first bend, and with Maud TV., the pair raced so fast that Cavalier and Jack TVil mot wore carried off their feet. Chllds got TVIlmot down, but before Durfee could get Cavalier Into his stride, he was out of it. Maud TV. and Helcne hooked up together down the back stretch, but at the three-quarters Helene had raced Maud M. dizzy, and she fell so far back that the distance flag fell on her. Jack TVilmot beat Cavalier half a length in the next heat. The next two heats were easy for Durfee. but at the finish of the last heat Cavalier was all in. The fields in both of the running races were made up of horses that had raced at Portland. The first event, while a sell ing a'ffalr, was won by Billy Donaldson's Gaucho. Lady Rice was second and Can ueE .was third. Past Master was favorite at even money, while Gaucho ruled at threes. At the last moment there was a heavy play on Myrtle H-, but like the live wire that was on Master, it was a false alarm. Starting Judge "Wood sent the field away to a splendid start. Little Clark" sent Gaucho to the front at once., and he won with the rest driving hard, behind him. Neither Master nor Myrtle H. gave the bottors a run for their money. Mrs. Harry Stover's St. Phllipplna beat Titus, the even-money favorite In the last race. The Pride broke up a dozen starts, and In two false breaks St. Phll ipplna Tan half a mile before Kent could stop her. In spite of this, Mrs. Stover's mare stepped the five furlongs in 1:00.

YOUR CREDIT IS GOOD t WORKING FOR PEACE Delegates to Interparliament ary Conference at Work. MANY NATIONS REPRESENTED Assistant Secretary of State Loomls Represents the President and De livers an Address, Showing Arbitration Fast Gaining. ST. LOUIS. Sept 12. Tho 12th confer ence of the Inter-Parliamentary Union opened today in Festival Hall, at the World's Fair grounds. Two hundred and twenty-six legislators from England and practically every European Parlia ment were in attendance to discuss ques tions, the solution of which, by this con ference, may have worldwide significance. There also was an American group, headed by Congressmen Richard D. Bar tholdt, of SL Louis, and T. C. Burton, of Cleveland. In accepting the office of president, Congressman Bartholdt dwelt at length upon the purposes of the .conferences, and expressed the opinion that Its work would finally result in the attainment of universal arbitration and universal peace. Francis B. Loomis, First Assistant Sec retary of State, who represented Pssl dent Roosevelt, then spoke in part as follows: I am glad to welcome the delegates and members of the Interparliamentary Union to this city and to this country. The Govern ment of the United States and its people are pleased to have you here. The President of the United States authorizes me to extend to you his kind and most cordial greetings. Valuing as he does the blessings of peae, earnestly desiring the diminution and lessen ing of the rigors and horrors of war, your coming is particularly grateful to him, for you are about to discuss phases of a problem of deeply human and world-wide interest the peaceful settlement of international dis putes. You will And in this country, I am proud to say, a responsive and sympathetic environment. Your deliberations will be fol lowed with warm and friendly interest by the American people, who cherish and hope that the world one day may enter upon the threshold at least of that blessed era, that thousand years of peace. America Wants No Wars. For more than a century there has existed in this country a virile and steadily increas ing sentiment in favor of the adjustment of differences between nations by some method less brutal and costly than a resort to arms. This sentiment has found expression from time to time in treaties and conventions ne gotiated by the Government and In the cro ations of commissions to whom questions of international importance have been referred for adjudication. Within the last 100 years there have been more than 200 cases in which international differences have been adjusted by tho peace ful method of arbitration In one form or another, and the Government of the United States has been a party to about 70 of these arrangements. The most notable treaty In which this Government was concerned, and one which has had. perhaps, the most pro found and beneficent results in that It has directed and powerfully Influenced public opinion Is the treaty negotiated In Washing ton In 1S71. which provided for four arbitra tions. Of It. Mr. John Morley says: "The treaty of Washington and the Gen eva arbitration stands out as the most nota ble International feature of the 10th century of the noble art of preventive diplomacy and the most'slgnal instance In their history of self-command in two or three chief demo cratic powers of the Western world." The active good Will of tho American peo ple and Government with respect' to all FELT MATTRESSES practical efforts to give effect to the princi ple of arbitration was again splendidly and sufficiently demonstrated by the part which the American delegates took in the peace conference, and has been still further shown by the untiring efforts of this Government to contribute to the stability, permanence and independence of Tho Hague tribunal. I desire to compliment the Interparlia mentary Union upon tho declaration which it made at its conference, held in Holland In 1S04, in favor of a permanent court of arbi tration, and the subsequent development of its plan for such a court, prepared by a com mission of sir members appointed for that purpose. Tho Interparliamentary Union de serves credit for practically forecasting five years in advance what proved to be the most salient work of the peace conference at The Hague. Great results have been achieved. You have aroused, directed and educated public sentiment in favor of arbitration throughout the civilized world. The union should never cease its efforts to stimulate public interest in arbitration. It is this force which we call public opinion, or pun He sentiment, which ia the court of last resort, the power that rules the world; It directs tho actions of men In all communi ties and In all forms of society; Its sway 13 universal; It sweeps the earth and It touches the stars. Movement Is Making Progress. The cause of international arbitration Is making notable and permanent progress. Since your last meeting. Great Britain and France, France and Italy, Great Britain and Italy, Holland and Denmark, Great Britain and Spain. France "and Spain, France and Holland, and Spain and Portugal have con cluded treaties pledging themselves during a period of Ave years to submit certain classes of cases to The Hague tribunal. The signing of these treaties marks a distinct and promising advance. Tho Alaskan bound ary dispute has been amicably settled and the record of the year counts nmong Its achievements, besides the alt with In The Hague tribunal. th appointment of spe cial arbitrators to settle. The Government of the United States, in all proper ways, will continue to give its aid and encouragement to the cause of Inter national arbitration to which It is so firmly and earnestly committed. This is a signifi cant and memorable gathering. There has never been before In the New World an assemblage similar to this in character, com position and aims. You are legislators se lected and empowered to give law to the civilized peoples of the earth. You have great powers, great opportunities, but it behooves you to remember that your respon sibilities are coequal and commensurate with them. You represent law-abiding and 11b-erty-lovlng people. It occurs to me while we attune our voices to persons in praise of liberty and peac, those of us who may be entrusted with the duty of making laws for the nations of the world might properly pause to consider also what legal remedies, outside the sphere of diplomacy, treaties and arbitrations, can be devised and applied to tho settlement of questions arising from the consideration of such serious international problems as anar chist assassins, general sanitation, emigra tion and cltlzenhip. The rapidly growing Interest In the sub ject of International arbitration indicates that your educational endeavors are not in vain; that they are bearing fruit; that they are well directed. It Is not necessarily to be believed that all of the wishes and all the dearest and completest Ideals of those who hope for universal peace and universal disarmament may be realized. Still, as the saying Is, nothing Is Impossible, and while the way seems long and tho difficulties al most Insuperable, yet by hard and sensible work, and earnest and prayerful striving, you may so animate and Inspire those who follow you that the latter may have the glorious fate to dwell In the time when "The war drums throb no longer, and" the battle flags are furled. In the parliament of man, the federation of the world." Then followed reports of delegates from each nation of the progress of the cause of peace in their respective countries, which concluded the day's work. Investigation Cleared Suicide.
