COUNTRY CLUBTO
fE RACE MEET
Application for Dates Will Be
Made to Association
Next Month.
TRACK READY IN APRIL
Eastern Breeders Will Knter Fine
Herds in Portland Livestock
Show, for Which Plans Are
Well tnder Way.
BY WILL. G. MAC RAE.
When the North Pacific Fair Associa
tion meets ' in Portland on February 6,
the Portland Country Club and Livestock
Association wilt make application for
membership and for racing dates. An
application for membership In the Fair
and Harness Racing Association of the
Northwest has already been made, it
being the intention of the Country Club
officials to give Portland a week of light
harness racing this Fall in connection
with its livestock show, but no action on
dates can be taken until the annual
meeting la held.
Work on the Country Club race track
has been pushed with great rapidity and
a large force of men has been at work
for months past on the track which will
be ready by the last of April. Last week
a building committee was appointed
which has been in consultation with E.
51. I-azarus, the club architect, and has
passed upon the plans for the clubhouse,
grandstand and stables.
It is the Intention of the Country Club
officials to have the track, stables and
grandstand ready in time for the Spring
meet of the Portland Hunt Club and to
have everything complete for the Fall
races and livestock show. It was original
ly the intention of those behind the
Country Club to secure dates for the
holding of the livestock show from the
National Livestock Association and M. D.
Wisdom was sent for that purpose as a
delegate to the convention that was held
In Chicago. Mr. Wisdom attended the
convention, but while there, the so-called
'rich man's panic" was at its height,
and the stockmen were unable to say
whether they could come to Portland this
year.
Big Breeders to Come.
Mr. Wisdom's visit, however, was not
without results, for he secured the
promise of a number of important breed
ers of fancy livestock to ship their herds
to Portland this Fall. He was unable to
secure dates under the auspices of the
National Livestock Association for 190S,
but the association did map out a West
ern Pacific Fair circuit for 1909. This
circuit will start at Hamlin. Minn., and
will Include Helena, Spokane. Seattle,
Portland. Boise. Salt Lake City, Denver,
Kansas City and close in Illinois. This
c ircuit will bring to the Pacific Coast the '
cream of the Eastern livestock, for breed
ers who have been carrying off all of the
prizes year In and year out are looking
for a new show field and Mr. Wisdom
found them more than anxious to come to
the Coast with their herds. .
Behind this plan are the big' packers
of the country, who, because of the keen
competition in meats for foreign markets
and the embargo on American meats In
Germany, are anxious to develop the
breeding of a better class of steers and
beef cattle. It was this same movement
upon the part of breeders and packers
that relegated Into the past the Texas
longhorned steer, with the result that
Texas today ships the finest beef cattle
sold. In Texas the cattle are fed on
cotton seed, which was formerly thrown
away.
In Oregon, with its vast irrigated tracts
that produce the finest alfalfa and barley,
thei same results can be obtained here.
Packers, realizing the importance of the
Oriental market, have taken a keen in
terest in the Portland Country Club and
Livestock Association, and together with
the breeders will send cattle, swine and
sheep herds to Portland in 1809, which
will far surpass those shown during the
Lewis and Clark Exposition.
Put Vp Good Purses.
Now that the Country Club has
promises from a number of big breeders
that they will ship to Portland in 190S.
it has decided to offer in cash prizes
more than $40,000. In addition to the
ICastern herds that will be shown here,
the show has been arranged so that the
breeders from California, Idaho, Montana,
Washington and Oregon can exhibit at
the same time and also take part in the
various state fairs held throughout the
Northwest. The matter of having the
California breeders ship here has already
been taken up and it has been planned to
have the Portland dates follow the
closing of the California State Fair Sep
tember 5.
The livestock show will not be the only
feature of the Fall meeting of the
Country Club. The association will give
a week's harness racing at the same
time and will distribute more than $?0.000
in purses and stakes to the light-harness
brigade. This small fortune, coupled with
the big stakes that the Oregon State Fair
Association will give, will bring to Ore
gon all of the crack trotters and pacers
that are Wintering in California and will
keep them on the Coast Instead of Invad
ing the East and racing on the grand cir
cuit. There will be a $3000 trot and a
$5000 pace.
NAME COXFEREXCE DELEGATE
Washington State College in Favor
of Four-Year Rule.
PULLMAN. Wash.. Jan. I?. (Special.)
Harold Davis, president of the Washing
ton State College Athletic Association,
was today selected to represent the Wash
ington i?tate College at the conference in
Walla Walia next month. Two men
were put up. as delegates, the other being
H. K. GoUisworthy, president of the Stu
dents' Assembly.
An advisory coinmitiee consisting of the
managers of the athletic teams was
chosen to consult with the delegate, and
under their instructions Davis will act.
It is probable that a member of the
faculty will accompany this delegate to
Walla Walla.
Washington State is in favor of adher
ence to the four-year rule, and also in
limiting memliershir of teams to stu
dents who are of ,'ull collegiate rating
and eliminating preparatory or special
students entirely.
GETTING VEUY STItOXG TEAM

OREGON AGRICl lTURAL COL
LEGE, Corvillis. Or., Jan. 19. Special.)
The impression on the campus is that the
new basketbnll team is going to develon
into a formidable rival of the O. A. C.
champion tfnm of the last two year's.
Its overwhelming defeat of Willamette
by a score of 52 to 14. and its defeat of
the State University team on the latter's I
own court a week ago, encourages the be-
lief that it is rounding Into a formidable
aggregation.
Two new forwards, Moore, formerly
of the Portland Y. M. C. A., and Horton,
a new man, are sources of unexpected
strength, while Foster, center of last
year's team, is playing better ball than
ever. The same is true of Rooper, also
of last year's team, and of Spires, of last
season's second team, both of whom play
at guard. The future games of the team
will be watched with much interest by the
students here.
New Astoria Athletic Club.
ASTORIA. Jan. 19. (Special.) x.ie As
toria Athletic Club, with a membership
of about 100, has been organized and of
ficers elected as follows: Charles H. Aber
crombie, president: A. V. Allen, Jr., vice
president; Carl Franseen, secretary; J.
G. West, treasurer. The club is making
arrangements to open a gymnasium and
it will also organize baseball and football
teams for next- season.
Sutton Takes Fourth Game.
NEW YORK. Jan. 19. The fourth game
of the series of 18.2 balk line billiards be
tween George Sutton of Chicago and
George F. Slosson of this city, was played
here tonight, Sutton winning by a score
of 400 to 253.
URGE CAKE TD ENTER RAGE
FRIENDS ADVISE HIM THAT THE
TIME IS PROPITIOUS.
Insist That He Must Not Await De
velopments of Political Nature
In the Hall Trial.
Aside from the question of the guilt or
innocence of the accused, the outcome of
the pending trial of John H. Hall and
Edwin Mays on a conspiracy charge in
the Federal Court will have an important
bearing on Oregon politics. This is rec
ognized both by the friends and the op
ponents ot Senator Fulton as well as by
Francis J. Heney, who has threatened to
make unpleasant disclosures against Ful
ton. It is in expectation of sensational
developments of a political nature that
the Federal Courtroom during the Hall
trial is thronged daily by partisans of
both Senator Fulton and H. M. Cake, who
is expected in a few days to announce his
candidacy for the Republican nomina
tion for Senator.
Senator Fulton's friends are insisting
that Mr. Heney will not be able un
favorably to associate Fulton in any con
nection with the trial now in progress.
But In his opening address to the Jury
Mr. Heney asserted that Senator Fulton
was a party to the alleged understand
ing that existed between Steiwer, former
State Senator, and his associates with
Hall and his deputy. Mays, by the terms
of which Steiwer and others were not to
be prosecuted for maintaining unlawful
fences inclosing public lands.
But whether or not Mr. Heney makes
good his implied charges against Senator
Fulton during the progress of the trial,
he has threatened to fire a broadside
against Senator Fulton in the form of an
addresa to the public at the conclusion
of the trial, in which he Intends to make
some sensational 'charges against the
Senator.
Friends of Mr. Cake, however, are in
sisting that he should not delay the an
nouncement of his candidacy pending the
promised exposure of Senator Fulton by
Mr. Heney. Mr. Cake is being urged to
enter actively Into the race at once, and
it is understood he will soon issue his
declaration, together with a statement of
his principles embodied in a platform on
which he will ask for the nomination.
It is generally understood that if
Senator Fulton is in any way associated
with the alleged Hall conspiracy, Mr.
Heney will not be able to Introduce the
necessary testimony before the latter
part of the week, and it is understood
to be the intention of Mr. Cake to an
nounce his candidacy before that stage is
reached in the Hall trial.
FOR DIRECT LEGISLATION
Xorth Dakota Man Writes on Prin
ciple of the Initiative.
BEUFIErD. N. D.. Jan. 19. (To the
Editor.) For some years I have been very
much interested in the initiative and refer
endum. '
Some time ago I subscribed for The Ore
Ionian purposely to see if I could larn
of thf actual working of the Initiative and
rpferendum. but thus far I have seen few
references to It and would Infer that the
professional politician thinks it a great
mistake. I read The Oreconian's editorial
entitled "A Great Political Solvent." I
take it that the editorial Is Intended to
be Ironical. Yet, It outlines a situation that
I would like to see in every state.
I know no reason why National politics
should govern in the selection of the Mayor
of a city, for the Governor of a state, for
the officers of a county, or the members
of a Icislature. But I do believe that
the city should have its own noli tics, the
county its own, and the state Its own, each
separate from the other and from that of
the Nation. Partisanship seems to be a
necessary part of the average man's make
up. But, 1 cannot see why a man cannot
be a Daxtlsan for what he thinks will be
best for his city, without mixing the thing
up with the silver or the tariff question.
The Oregonian's thoughtful editorials
have Interested me very much. I seldom
fall to find food for thought even if The
Oregonian sometimes says things that I
do not agree with. Its theological views
suit me exactly. X would like very much
to see Its unbiased opinion of the inltiativa
and referendum.
The people of Des Moines, la., my old
home have adopted the initiative and
referendum and will elect their officers
without reference to National politics. But
I suppose there la just now a greater ex
citement over the selection of their nw
officers than they ever knew before or ever
will again.
1 do not like the idea of a plurality de
ciding who shall be United States Senator
In jour state. There should be a second
election between the two highest. I sup
pose It Is not possible to adopt a plan by
which the skilled politician cannot take
considerable advantage of the situation.
The Initiative and referendum Is pending
In this state and I understand that the
Prohibitionists are fighting it and the
liquor interests are favoring it. It seems
to me a short-sighted policy on the part
of both. Jf the liquor business is ever
downed in this country, it will be by direct
legislation.
HENRY HEALON.
Can't Io Hard Labor.
PORTLAND, Jan. 19. (To the Editor.) Men
accustomed to heavy labor are assisted by the
Associated Charities. I have worked 20 years
in diftVrent offices, and I am unable to handle
a shcvt-i or saw wood, though willing. I did
try. and became bedridden in consequence.
1 called at the Associated Charities. They
nev-r have calls for men to do any work
fxeept heavy labor. I have walked the streets
six ' weeks seeking wrk. am nearly penni
less and have a mother back East depending
on me for asststanr-e. I am not afraid of
work of any kind that I am physically able
to do. If I was strong enough to carry wood
or shovel I fei I could get along until more
congenial work appeared. As it Is, I am
dievourar. and do not know what to do. and
I take the liberty, hoping you will say some
thing tn your paper that will benefit myself
and the unemployed men. who are deserving,
but who are physically unable to do the heavy
labor that Is at present offered to all.

Westgate Says Organization Will
Not Meet for Several Weeks,
When Procedure for Naming
Delegates Will Be Outlined.
Republicans of this state have not yrt
determined on a plan for selecting dele
gates to the Republican National Conven
tion, and for nominating candidates for
Presidential electors. These matters will
receive the consideration of the Repub
lican State Central Committee, but in dis
cussing; the subject yesterday, G. A.
Westgate, State Surveyor-General-Elect
and chairman of the committee, said
there was no demand among the com
mitteemen for a meeting for several
weeks.
It Is not probable that the Republicans
will follow the example of the Democrats
who have decided to hold a state conven
tion for the purpose of selecting dele
gates to their National Convention while
primaries will be arranged for nominat
ing Presidential electors. Chairman
Westgate, of .the Republican organization,
reports that the sentiment among the
committeemen, so far as he has been ad
vised, favors holding a state convention
after the general primary election in
April. The method of selecting delegates
to the National Convention and naming
Presidential electors remains to be de
termined by the committeemen when they
have assembled.
Not in Hurry to Meet.
"Members of the committee are not
disposed to be in a hurry about meeting,"
said Mr. Westgate yesterday, "and it is
not probable that the committee will
meet for some time. It is the general
feeling among the members of the com
mittee that a state convention should
be held, but that the date for the con
vention should follow the primaries in
April. This same sentiment appears to
favor holding preciict primaries for the
purpose of choosinj; delegates to county
conventions, which will name delegates
to the state convention. Some of the
committeemen would simplify this
method by having the precinct pri
maries elect delegates direct to the state
convention. This plan, it is contended,
would reduce the expense of holding
county conventions and would accom
plish the same practical results. How
ever, these matters are to be determined
by the members of the State Central
Committee when they are called to
gether." The Methods Suggested.
The question of Importance involved,
say members of the committee, Is a de
termination of the best means for obtain
ing the .most thoroughly representative
expression from among the Republican
voters of the state at the state conven
tion. The selection of delegates to the
National Convention as well as naming
Presidential electors Is largely a matter
of form, they contend, but should be
altogether representative of the voters of
the party throughout the state. It is
further believed by many of the com
mitteemen that such selections would be
representative if made at a convention
composed of delegates from the different
counties, whether these delegates were
named at county conventions attended
by delegates elected by precinct primaries
or whetner the state convention was
made up of delegates that were chosen
In the precinct primaries directly.
S. C. Spencer, of this city, is secre
tary of the Republican State Central
Committee and W. W. Banks, also of
this city, is the Multnomah County mem
ber of the committee.
RIGHT MAN FOR CONGRESS
Stuff of Which He Should Be Made,
Described by Mr. Haynes.
PORTLAND, Jan. 18. (To the Editor.)
As the time is rapidly approaching far the
selection of a candidate to reDresent this
district in the next Congress, the field
should be cautiously surveyed for the best
man for that responsible position.
The office is distinctly political, therefore,
a Republican should be chosen. Not sim
ply because the district is overwhelmingly
of that faith, but for the better reason
that the principles advocated by that party
have heretofore yielded, and are destined
to yield the greatest good to the greatest
number of our peoole.
I see that the newspapers mention the
names of Congressman Ellis. ex-Governor
Oeer and Georce S. Shepherd as candidates
for the honor and that the respective friends
of each urge the selection of their favorite
because of his ions; residence in, the state
or past services to the party.
In my judement, what a man stands for
now, is of more importance than the length
of his residence or the extent of his past
party services, and I herewith submit my
views of what should be expected of the
candidate:
First He should be honest and capable.
Second He ousht to favor the Immediate
revision of the Dlncley tariff schedule
correspond to the difference between the
cost of foreign and domestic products. If
that schedule needs reforming, and I be
lieve it does, reform it, and the quicker
the better for it is right on the principles
of justice and fair dealing, party expert
diency should not be permitted to inter
fere. No party ever suffered by standing
for the rlRhu and there can be no justi
fication in a tariff schedule that fattens
trusts at the expense of the people.
Third He should vigorously advocate itn
mediate and absolute free trade between
the United States and our insular posses
sions. Liberty and justice should follow
the flag and there is neither liberty nor
justice in shutting out the sugar from
those Islands at the behest of the sugar
trust or in th excluding of their tobacco
to court the favor of the tobacco trust.
Fourth He should favor the completion

! of the Panama. Canal as soon as men, money
J and skill can do It. The remote posslbll-
ity of war with JaDan has awakened us
to the transcendent importance of that stu
pendous project.
Fifth He should vote to staln our in
sular possessions, as long:, at least, as those
people are thereby benefited and favor al!
measures looking to their elvation finan
cially, mentally and morally. '
Sixth He hould insist on the exclusion
of Chinese And Japanese coolies and all
other objectionable foreigners who come
here to sap all the substance possible from
our people to send to their native lands,
with no canaclty or inclination to make
good American citizens.
Seventh He should oppose ship subsidies
Americans, to, the end that our merchant
marine might be rehabilitated and made
the pride of the Nation.
Eighth He should favor a Wiw compell
ing railroad companies to furnish ample
facilities for the transportation of passen
gers and freisht at rates that would earn
a fair Interest on the actual, not watered,
value of the roads and equipments.
Ninth He should unceasingly advocate
annual river and harbor appropriations un
til every navigable stream in the land,
particularly the Columbia. Willamette and
bnake rivers, shall be open to free naviga
tion to their fullest capacity, and for uie
construction of canals wherever needed.
Every shloper should have the means of
transportation a near his door as prac
ticable. Tenth He should vote to establish a
central bank similar to the Bank of France,
and likewise a United States Postal Bank
system. If the common people could get
United States postal certificates at the
Postofflce, it would encourage the saving
of their surplus earnings, and when hard
times enveloped the country the people
could draw out their money when needed,
instead of having it locked up in wildcat
banks and Wall atreet would be powerless
to create a money panic through its devil
ish gambling manipulations.
Eleventh He should favor a Federal
parcels post. If that system would con
flict with ''express companies and country
merchants. It is evident that the common
people are not getting a square deal.'
Twelfth He should advocate the ap
pointment of a nonpartisan Government
commission, whose duty it would be to fix,
from time to time, a scale of wazes for
the employes of the Government and those
of all persons or corporations engaged in
Government, interstate or quasi-public busi
ness to the end that strikes and lockouts
might cease.
Thirteenth He should vote for a gradu
ated inheritance tax. to the end that a
few multi-millionaires could not own the
country and enclave the people and trans
mit that ownership to their posterity. In
that connection,'' he might aid in placing
the burden where It can most easily be
borne by helping to establish an Income
tax on targe Incomes, provided It can be
framed to meet the objections of the United
States Supreme Court as voiced in Its de
cision on the other one.
Fourteenth He should always stand for
the election of United States Senators by
the direct vote of the people.
Fifteenth He should urge the immediate
fortification of the Pacific Coast, and the
retention of a large part of our Navy in
Pacific waters.
. Sixteenth He should insist upon the in
crease of our Navy until it becomes auf
ficiently powerful to protect us against any
possible fnreien Invasion.
Seven theenth He snould favor a pen
sion of at least $12 er month for every
widow of an old soldier whether she be a
flrst or subsequent wife. I know of no
person more deserving of a pension than
the wife who lovingly ministers to the
-vants of the old veteran in his declining
years.
Eighteenth He snoum vote to increase
the salaries of lettercarrlers who are the
hardest worked and poorest paid men in
the Government employ, unless It be our
soldiers and sailors, whose pay should also
be Increased o the end that a higher class
of men miirht be induced to enter those
Important branches of the public service
and the present disgraceful percentage of
desertions be checked.
Nineteenth He should push forward the
present plan of Irrigating the arid lands
of t he Pacific states, particularly those of
Oregon, to the end that the wonderful na-
tural resources of this wonderful state may
be thoroughly developed.
Twentieth He should be so devoted to
