DIVIDE MONEY N
CONSOLATION PAGE
Tommy Gratton and General
Hertus Have Even Break
in Fast Race.
TOM MURPHY BEATS DONAX
Today's Programme Best Offered,
and John Caldwell Is Expected
to Break Pacific Coast
Trotting Record.
Honors were divided In the big 2:09
paing race at the track of the Pacific
National show yesterday. Though five
thrilling heats were driven, the field
was so evenly matched that none of
the horses was able to carry off first
honors more than twice, while three
won heats.
Consequently first and second money
in the consolation purse for 2:09
pacers was evenly divided between
Tommy Grattan and General Hertus,
the game little Idaho horse that wrest
ed the honors from Gratton in the last
two heats. Lord Lovelace, pride of
Hillsboro, threatened to do things and
won the first heat, but third money
was the best he was able to land in
.the final result.
In the 2:25 pacing event, three out
of five, Tom Murphy won easily, the
only contest out of a field'of four be
ins made by Donax, a promising geld
In with only six weeks' paring ex
perience. Birdie P. won the three
quarter mile running rare, trailing be
hind the field until the stretch and
winning by three lengths In the final.
Go Against Coast Time.
Today's programme of racing events
is decidedly the best of the week. John
Caldwell, owned by J. C. Klrkpatrlck,
of San Francisco, who also owns
Charley D., will attempt to beat the
Pacific Coast record. The horse Is
generally believed to be one of the
top-notch trotters of the country and
already has a record of 2:08H.
The card today includes three har
ness races and a running race for
ponies owned and ridden by local boys.
The harness events are the 2:05 pacing
race for the Rapid Transit purse of
$1500, the 2:10 trotting race for the
Rural Spirit purse of the same amount
and tho 2:13 trotting race for the Con
solation purse of $500. It Is by far
the best card of the meet
Tommy Grnttan, General Hertus and
Ixrd Iovelace were contestants in
yesterday's big race, though there was
a field of five. In the first heat Gen
eral Hertus had the pole and led to the
half, where he was overtaken by
Lord Lovelace, with Grattan a length
behind. Ronnie M. got a bad start
and lagged away behind the field, be
ing distanced at the finish. At the
half the gap between General Hertus
and the two other contestants was
eliminated, and there was a driving
finish to th - wire. In the stretch
1.4rd Lovelace forged to the front and
won the heat by a head, with General
'Hertus second and Tommy Grattan
less than half a length behind. Time,
2:12.
Lovelace Soon Falls Behind.
The field, minus Bonnie M., scord
evenly in the second heat, with the
exception of Miss Idaho, who was a
length behind. Lovelace led for a
brief time, but Grattan passed him be
fore the quarter was reached and 'in
creased tils lead by three lengths by
the time they reached the half. Love
lace decreased the gap, however, while
General Hertus for a time had diffi
culty in keeping ahead of Miss Idaho.
Al the half Grattan led by two
lengths, and held the same position at
the turn, while the other three were
well bunched. In the stretch Grattan
still led, but Lord Lovelace drove him
hard to the wire. Grattan won by a
length, with Lovelace second and Gen
eral Hertus third. Time, 2:09i. In
this heat Grattan lowered his own
record, which had been 2:10.
The third heat was a walkaway for
Grattan, though he broke Just beyond
the quarter pole and fell three lengths
behind Loveiace and General Hertus.
He recovered himself quickly and went
after the pair like a rocket. He over
took them at the half and at the turn
had a good lead. He won handily from
General Hertus. who showed up strong
even after these three gruelling heats.
Time, 2:104.
His staying powers won the fourth
heat for General Hertus. It was a
clean get-away, with Grattan In the
lead at the quarter. General Hertus
crowding him closely. But Grattan had
increased the lead to two lengths at
the half, and held the first place until
the stretch. There General Hertus
drove him hard and passed him, win
ning by a length. Time. 2:10H.
Grattan Gets Bad Start. '
Grattan was unfortunate In the get
away In the fifth heat, for he was
two good lengths In the rear when
the word was given. General Hertus
led, with Lovelace close upon him. At
the half Grattan had passed Lovelace,
but was still two lengths behind the
leader. They occupied the same post-
tlon as they turned into the stretch,
and then Grattan evened up matters
with the leader. It looked like an
even finish in the stretch until Grat
tan went off his feet, and General
Hertus won by three lengths. Time,
2:12.
General Hertus and Tommy Grattan
divided first and second money, while
Lord Lovelace took third.
Tom Murphy won the 2:25 pace In
one, two, three order. There were five
entries. Atabel. entered at the last
moment, proved a bad one, so far as
the public was concerned. She scored
with the field in the first heat, and
forgot to turn when the bell sounded
a return. Despite the efforts of her
driver she went the full mile and was
taken from the track. Donax finished
second In each of the three heats,
while Loniadi finished third and Lucky
Pet fourth. Time, 2:14 hi, 2:10tt.
2:09S.
In the three-quarter mile running
race Birdie P. trailed way behind until
the stretch, when she went out after
the leader and passed Bezzina Bay,
winning by two lengths. St. Albins
finishing third, and Knight of the Grip
fourth. Time, 1:14 H.

Today's races will be decidedly the best
of the meet. The 2:05 pace will likely
result In the lowering of Pacific Coast
records, since some of the fastest horses
In the country have been entered. Purses
In today's events are large. There will
be a running race between ponies owned
end ridden by local boys, entries for
which event have not been made out.

iVO AT TUFT MEETING
COL. HAYXES ADDRESSES RAL
LY IX MEKKILL'S HALL.
Flays Bryan and Bryanism, and
Contrasts Republican and Dem
ocratic Policies.
Despite the counter attraction at the
Armory, where United States Senator
Gore was the principal speaker, a large
crowd of loyal Republicans assembled at
Merrill's hall last night, to listen to the
addresses made by Republican campaign
ers in the interest of Taft and Sherman.
Colonel D. J. Haynes, formerly of Ken
tucky, but now a citizen of Portland, was
the principal speaker, and he flayed
Bryan and Bryanism as represented In
the Democratic party of today in no
sparing terms. The remarks of the former
Kentuckian were most convincing and he
was frequently Interrupted by applause.
In part Colonel Haynes said:
"Ever since 1S61, when Abraham
Lincoln was first elected to the Presi
dency, the Republican party has stood
for the honesty and integrity of our
Government. It has advocated no false
policies, nor has it been responsible for
any ot the panicky times that have re
sulted from Democratic fallacies. Mr.
Bryan advocates the guarantee of de
posits In savings banks. Mr. Taft and
the Republican party advocate the postal
savings system. In the event that Mr.
Bryan carries out this one plan the Gov
ernment will be called upon to insure the
deposits of every wildcat bank In the
country, and If such a thing were to
occur, hundreds of unscrupulous persons
would start savings banks for no other
purpose than to get rich quick at the ex
pense of the Government. How different
is Mr. Taft's safer and saner plan of
establishing a savings system In connec
tion with the postal system, an institu
tion already founded and backed by the
Government."
Colonel Haynes dwelt at length on
campaign issues, and flayed Bryan un
mercifully for his fallacies of 1S96. 1900
and 118. He told of the experiences of
the Cleveland Administration; of the
panic of 1813: of the march of Coxey's
Army, and finally abjured the voters to
think well over the points at Issue and
discover for themselves if it were not
better to vote for the Republican nomi
nees, who represented a party which had
accomplished something, than to vote for
the nominees of a party which had de
monstrated by past experiences its utter
Inability to provide -against disaster.
Colonel Haynes was followed by Wil
liam G. Hale, a young speaker of pleas
ing deliver?', who aroused great enthu-'
slasm by his flow of oratory, and the
emphatic manner in which he expressed
his opinions on the National issues. Dr.
Henry Waldo Coe and Wallace Mc
Camant had been scheduled to. make ad
dresses, but the former was called out oi
the city unexpectedly, and the latter was
Incapacitated by a severe cold.
MRS. DUNPHY UNHAMPERED
Records Show Millionaire's Wife
Divorced From First Husband.
HILLSBORO. Or., Sept. 25. (Special.)
Millionaire James Clay Dunphy. of San
Francisco, who is answering his wife's
suit for divorce, alleging she was not di
vorced from a former husband, Julius Sil
veston, a Portland lawyer, has another
guess coming. The Silvestons were di
vorced here in Hillsboro. April 18, 1S9S.
The wife sued for separation, and al
leged that they were married at Steven
son, Skamania County. Wash., January 30,
IS!, and that after marriage the husband
failed to conduct himself as a good hus
band: that he beat her several times and
so abused her that she left him for per
sonal satety. She alleged that Silveston
was worth all of J10.W0, and she wanted
alimony, and money to conduct her suit.
The case was taken before Judge T. A.
McBride. who decreed that Mrs. Silveston
have her divorce; that Silveston pay the
costs, and that plaintiff and defendant
pay their own attorney fees. Whatever
property there was the rights must have
been settled cut of court, as the court
asserted in his findings .of fact that the
property, if any, was out of his jurisdic
tion. Dell Stuart, a Portland lawyer, was Mrs.
Dunphy's counsel In the Circuit Court at
this place, and S. B. Huston, now In the
East, was attorney for Silveston. At the
trial Silveston declined to introduce de
fensive evidence. ,

ROOSEVELT LIKELY
TO TAKE STUMP
Precedent Will Not Deter Him
if Taft Should Need
His Aid.
WAITS FOR DEVELOPMENTS
Close Friend of President Tells How
Latter Feels Regarding Matter.
Necessity for Strenuous Mea
sures May Easily Arise.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Sept. 26. "President Roosevelt will
go Just as far as he thinks necessary to in
sure the election of Taft He may or may
not go upon the stump, depending upon de
velopments as the campaign progresses."
This statement was made by a prominent
member of the Administration; a man
close to the President, and well acquaint
ed with Mr. Roosevelt's Intense desire to
see Taft elected. While he did not at
tempt to speak for the President, nor
claim to have authority for the foregoing
statement, this official said he was thor
oughly convinced that his opinion was
correct, and he would not hesitate to pre
diet that the President would take the
stump if the outlook was unsatisfactory
towards the close of the campaign.
Managers of the Taft campaign have
not allowed themselves to believe that
they have an easy fight on their hands
this Fall: quite the contrary. They real
Ize that the most important states In the
Union are doubtful, and can be won only
by the hardest kind of a campaign. New
York Is by no means sale; Ohio, wnne
reasonably sure to vote for Taft, can yet
be lost to the Republicans; Indiana, Illi
nois. West Virginia. Maryland, Wisconsin,
Connecticut. Kansas and Nebraska are
all more or less in doubt, due. in many
instances, to local Issues or dissensions
among the Republicans. All these states
are on Bryan's doubtful list, and the
Brvan managers are planning hard cam.'
paigns in all states where there is the
slightest chance of success.
Letter Shows Concern.'

been entirely satisfactory, that letter
would never nave Deen written ana given
to the press. Had there not been trouble
among the laboring men, the President
would never have gone so far out of his
way to assert and to prove that labor has
nothing to fear, and everything to gain
through the election of the Republican
ticket. Having written that letter, the
President will watch Its effect. If it tenas
to offset the attacks of Bryan and Gora-
i h.M. in Una tbnsA labor voters
who were Inclined to bolt the Republican
ticket, it will probably be followed with
other letters of a like character, from
time to time, as the fight progresses. But
if the letter fails to have the desired ef
fect, it is quite generally expectea xnai xne
President will smash Just one more prece-

speeches in support of the Taft ticket.
In Administration circles it. is ucimvcu
the President's letter will have the desired
. t ib maA tVifla letter wu written
at the suggestion of a Western Senator,
who had talked witn laDonng men ia u
own state, and discovered their tendency
to vote for Bryan. This senator, it seems,
found not a few laboring men who had
voted for Roosevelt in lmn, wno we fit
paring to vote for Bryan. He talked
with them individually, and found them
all imbued with the same idea, that Taft
was hostile to the Interests of labor.
They had no clear idea of how he was
hostile, but they had gathered from what
had been said by Bryan and by Gompers
that Taft was not their friend, and there
fore ought to be defeated.
Convert Taft Enemy.
In talking with one laborer In particu
lar, the Senator said:
You voted for Roosevelt, didn't your
"Yes."
"Would you have Toted for him this
year if he had been renominated?"
"Most certainly. He Is friendly to the
laboring men."
"Well, you believe Roosevelt is honest,
don't you; and you do. not believe he is
a fool?"
"He is certainly as honest as any man,
and anything but a fool."
"Well, now, you know President Roose
velt Is your friend; you know that the
President vouches for Taft; you know the
President says Taft Is a friend of the
laboring man, and you know the Presi
dent wants his policies continued In force
through the next Administration. Having
been intimately associated with Taft
through these many years, with every
opportunity to know the man intimately;
know his beliefs and his purposes, do you
suppose tbe President would vouch for
him urge his nomination, and then urge
bis election unless he knew absolutely
that Taft was in thorough sympathy with
his own ideas?"
This set the worklngman to thinking,
as it did all the others who were ques
tioned, and after several such experi
ences, the incident was related to the
President. Shortly thereafter came that
Montana letter, and It is fairly to be In
ferred that that letter was Intended to
checkmate Mr. Bryan and Mr. Gompers
in their effort to discredit Taft among the
labor voters. Labor has always had
great respect for President Roosevelt, and
when he vouches for Taft in unqualified
terms, his word must bear weight with
that or Bryan and Gompers, ana ine oai
ance will many times be with the Presi
dent. Proves Taft's Innocence.
One of the most forceful things about
the Presidents letter, so far as It ap
plies to Taft's attitude towards labor, is
his proof of his assertions, and his Invi
tation to laboring men to examine for
themselves the record of Judge Taft
while on the bench. The record certainly
speaks for itself, and the President has
shown the way by which every thinking
man can learn Just wnat are ine tacis.
Certainly if the record were other than
he asserted, he would not invite inspec
tion. ir th labor vote, or a substantial
portion of that part of it which usually

stampeded to Bryan, the Republicans
would have extreme difficulty in carry
ing the various doubtful states. In al
mnat all of these states there is dis
affection among the Republicans, and
Bryan enjoys further advantage through
the fact that strong uemocranc siam
tickets have been named, and in some.
there' are prominent local issues that
tend to strengthen the jjemocrauo
cause.
There Is anything but harmony In
New York, since the nomination of
Hughes was forced upon the Republi
can bosses, for they realize that the
re-election of Hughes means their own
annihilation. Naturally the -machine
Republicans are not enthusiastic; some
will bolt the state ticket, preferring a
Democrat to Hughes, and this knifing
may affect the National ticket as well.
Exactly the same situation prevails In
West Virginia, where the Republican
state ticket Is sure to be knifed In
royal fashion, and notwithstanding two
Republican tickets are in the field, each
bearing the same Presidential electors,
the vote on the National ticket will be
smaller than if harmony prevailed.
Liquor Is Great Issue.
In Indiana the liquor question Is a
great factor, and the Republicans have
the unpopular end of it. Combined
with this is the fact that an Indiana
man is running on the Democratic
ticket with Bryan, and a strong man
has been named for Governor.
The Illinois: Democrats, . taking ad
vantage of the fight on Speaker Can
non and the factional troubles that
have ripped wide open the Republican
party, of their state, nominated their
best man, ex-Vlce-Presldent Adlal Ste
venson for Governor, and pitted him
against a man who won the Republican
Gubernatorial nomination only after a
bitter factional fight. . A stronger can
didate could not have been put in the
field, and Stevenson's influence will be
felt by the Republicans before the cam
paign closes.
Wisconsin Is less doubtful than some
of the other states, but La Follette is .-.
disturbing element, even though recon
ciled to the nomination of Senator Ste
phenson at the late primaries. Taking
advantage of Stephenson's nomination,
which was a bad tactical error on the
part of the Republicans, the Democrats
are going to try to carry the Legisla
ture, and In doing so they will natu
ally cut into the Republican support of
the National ticket. Likewise the fight
on Lilley in Connecticut will probably
reduce the Republican plurality in that
state, though it will not be sufficient
to throw Connecticut into the Demo
cratic column.
Sore Spots In Kansas.
The primaries which defeated Sena
tor Long in Kansas made many sore
heads in that commonwealth, and the
Long people are threatening all manner
of trouble. There is to be knifing of
the state and legislative tickets, which
may or may not make Kansas more
doubtful than usiftil. .The primary has
Injured the Republican chances as
much in Kansas as in Wisconsin, and
Democratic success in either.state could
be attributed, in a large measure, to
the operation of the new primary sys
tem. In those states, as in Oregon, the
primary law has tended to weaken
party organization, and where the or
ganization is undermined, the National
ticket must necessarily be affected.
The only thing that makes Nebraska
doubtful is the fact that it is the home
of the Democratic candidate. Local
pride and popular belief in Bryanlstlc
Ideas made Nebraska Democratic in
1896, but these factors were not strong
enostgh to hold Nebraska in the Demo
cratic column the second time, Bryan
was nominated. It Is said, of course,
that the Bryan who is running this
year Is a "new Bryan," divorced from
the old radical Ideas that made him
the party standard bearer In two pre
vious campaigns. It may be that the
people of Nebraska can be convinced
on this point to such an extent that
they will be willing to give the "Peer
less" another chance, but nothing short
of local pride can swing Nebraska into
the Bryan column In November.
However, there, as elsewhere. It Is
the local Issue that makes the state
doubtful, and it is up to the Taft man
agers, with the aid of the President, to
convince Nebraska that It has more at
stake than mere local pride. Perhaps
there may be a special letter to the
XebraBkans.
THERE are several new comers this
week to be added to the already be
wildering array of fruits and vege
tables. Among the latter are parsnips,
salsify, kohl-rabi, red cabbage and fresh
horseradish. Oregon celery is very good
Just now, although less white than the
California kind. Cauliflowers, too, are
excellent, ranging In price from 6 to 20
cents. Tomatoes are 35 to 40 cents a box,
or about 6 cents a pound. I saw some
very attractive smooth, round ones, Just
the thing for "tomatoes a l'Americalne"
or "tomato roses." There are green ones
also though they do not appear to be
very plentiful, for the housekeeper who
likes pickles and relishes of various kinds.
Green, wax, Lima and shell Deans, an
10 to 126 cents a pound, and corn, at 20
to 30 cents a dozen, are still rainy plen
tiful. In spite of frosty mornings. Egg
plant is scarcer and slightly higher in
price at 15 cents a pound. Brussels sprouts
at 12 cents; bell peppers at 15 cents and
several varieties of squash and cucumbers
are all attractive. Pickling cucumber
seem auite scarce this year, but there are
still a few to be had at $1 a box. Pickling
onions and red peppers are also ready for
family iars. Sweet potatoes are plentiful
at 6 cents a pound; spinach Is 10 cents a
pound and artichokes 10 cents each, ko
maine lettuce is now to be seen, as well
as the ordinary head and hothouse varie
ties.
The first pale cranberries of the season,
at 20 cents a quart, may well cause the
thoughtful turkey to reflect upon nis
