No one can dispute the Ameri can team played badly when it got on a foreign field. "As spokesman for the republican party, I am urging team play In gov ernment on the home grounds, with all the home fans behind us. and team play when we represent America in the all-the-world series. There are too many men batting above .300 to rely on one hitter. "And 1 am advocating something more play according to the rules. The rules in the supreme American game are in the federal constitution, and the umpire is the American peo ple. There was a meeting of league officials where the contending team tried a squeeze play and expected to score 6 to 1 against the United States. But the American senate was ready with the ball at the plate and we are still flying our pennant which we won at home and hold respect throughout the world." MAC SWINEY VERY WEAK "WARSAW, Sept. 2. (By the Asso ciated Press.) The bolshevlki army of General Budenny. noted cavalry leader, was annihilated during the operations in the L.embcrg' sector, which began August 29 and ended September 1, said today's Polish statement. Isolated detachments of the Bu denny forces escaped. General Budenny's mounted men had been endeavoring to break through the Polish lines and march upon Lublin. They nearly had completed an encircling movement against Zamosz, midway between Lublin and Lemberg. but were out flanked and attacked from the east, the communication stated. The en gagement resulted in the defeat of the soviet forces along the entire center of the front and the Russians were compelled to retreat in disor der with the Poles In close pursuit.

The battle took the form of numer ous cavalry clashes with the infantry filling in the gaps and attacking all along the line simultaneously. Besides announcing the victory of the Poles over Budenny in the Za mosz, the communique , reported suc cesses along the entire center and southern fronts. The decisive part in the battle was taken by the pursuit group of Gen eral Haller, which had swung to the rear of Budenny's chief forces and was moving persistently in their tracks. General Haller'a chief forces attacked toward Zamosz from the east. General Budenny began to re treat. Ho met everywhere, however, the fighting Poles bent on surround ing him. Chnree After Charge Repulned. Battles also developed near "Wolice, Samiatycka, Miacryna and Zawalewo, where the Russians, disregarding enormous losses, repeatedly renewed their cavalry charges. The horse men were defeated, the Poles taking many prisoners, while several de tachments which had broken through, are reported beating a. scattered re treat with the Poles close on their heels. Among Russians killed were the chief of staff of the 4th division, two brigade commanders, several regi mental commanders and 12 commis sars.

Court's Verdict Is Result of Failure Classify Lands in District. POLAND REFUSES TO HOLD ARMIES RACK Plea of Secretary Colby Held Impracticable. Is REDS ARE UNRESTRAINED to OLTMPIA, Wash., Sept. 2. (Spe cial.) The special "pest tax" of 10 cents an acre levied In Spokane county is held invalid by the supreme court, because of failure of the county commissioners to make a classification of the lands included in the district. The special assess ment was made at the same rate on all lands irrespective of valuation and benefits to be derived from the de struction of pests. Action was brought by W. E. Stan ger, owner of 1100 acres of land in the district upon which the assessment was made, and a restraining order issued by Judge Bruce Blake of the superior court of Spokane county. In affirming the trial court, the supreme court holds that the provi sion of the 1919 law providing for as sessment of a special tax for the de struction of rodents and other animal pests that destroy crops is mandatory in its provision requiring classifica tion of lands upon which- such tax is to be Imposed, into grazing, waste and tillable land, and that the as sessment must be fixed for each class.

Government Declares It Cannot Bind Itself to Regard Peace Con ference Boundaries. WASHINGTON, Sept. 2. Poland has declined to jeopardize her military operations against the bolshevik! by binding herself to regard the "arti ficial boundaries" laid down at the peace -conference. Replying to Secretary Colby's sug gestion that Poland remain within the lines specified by the peace con ference, the Polish government states: "Notwithstanding the sympathetic attitude of our allies, the Polish na tion had to face the danger alone and political events have proved that it must in the first place rely on its own military strength. If military operations necessitated measures- to prevent a renewed invasion of Poland, it could hardly be considered fair that artificial boundaries that do not bind one opponent should interfere with the military operations of the other." The text of the correspondence be tween tie American and Polish gov ernments, relative to the Polish-Russian situation, was made public to night at the state department. It con sisted of a message addressed to President Wilson by Premier Witos of Poland, a note by Secretary Colby, under date of August 21, and two re plies from Poland, one under date of August 28 and the other of August 30. Reply Entirely Satisfactory. The general nature of the corre spondence had become known pre vious to Its being made public to night, and state department officials yesterday characterized the Polish replies as "entirely satisfactory." The . message of Premier Witos to President Wilson was made public by me roiien government when it was sent. Secretary Colby, in acknowl edging, took occasion to call atten tion to the recent note of the Ameri can government to the Italian govern ment expressing the belief that the territorial integrity of Russia should be'respected. Continuing, Secretary Colby said: "The United States applauds the steadfast gallantry of the Polish army in its defense of Warsaw and is sympathetic with all necessary measures Poland may take to pre serve its political and territorial In tegrity. This government, however, urges that every reasonable effort be made to terminate the present blood- snea. it could not approve adoption oi an oiiensive war programme against ttussia by the Polish govern mem. Polish Advance Regretted. "The American government is of the opinion that the Polish advance into Russia tended to create a na tional sentiment in that country which ignored the tyranny and op pression from which the people suf fer and afforded an undeserved sup port to the bolshevik regime, which enabled its leaders to embark upon the Invasion of Polish territory. "To prevent a recurrence of the present situation, the United States government believes that the Polish government might well take the op portunity, afforded by the favorable turn of events to declare its intention to abstain from any aggressions against Russian territorial integrity; to slate that its policy is not directed against the restoration of strong and united Russia, and that pending a direct agreement as to its eastern frontier, Poland will remain within the boundary Indicated by the peace conference. "This government fully appreciates the difficulties and dangers which at tend dealings with the bolsheviki . . . but it believes that the most effective method of combating the efforts of ROYALTY OFF FOR BRAZIL King and Queen of Belgium Sail for Visit of About a Month.

"You can't win a ball game with a one-man team. National unprepared- ness- for war cost us many precious ; lives ana enaiess ounons in waste, and unpreparedness for peace is costing pinions more ana noiaing us in anx iety and uncertainty. ! Struck Oat at Pari. r "It is my observation that the na- tional team, now playing for the United btates, played loosely and their negotiators would be the ex- I hibitlon of moderation by Poland and the insistence only upon . sucn tfrms as are essential to the safety, the full sovereignty and the territor ial integrity of the Polish state." U. S. Interest Appreciated. The Polish minister of foreign af fairs, Prince Sapieha, in his first note of reply, declared that the solici tude expressed by the American gov ernment for the maintenance of po litical independence and territorial integrity of Poland was "very grati fying to the Polish nation and has been highly appreciated by the Polish government." Deep gratitude also was expressed by Foreign Minister Sapieha for the American government's "open con demnation of the political system and methods of the bolshevik govern ment." The foreign minister added that Poland's war against Russia was being waged "against bolshevism and not against the Russian people.". "The Polish government," he de-4 dared, "has always been guided only by its duty- to defend the independ ence and territorial integrity of Po land and guard Europe against the bolshevik wave." Direct answer to Secretary Colby's admonition to abstain from territorial aggressions against Russia was made in the second note from Poland, say ing: Just Pence Held Desired. "Poland desires a Just, lasting and equitable peace, and has not altered her attitude In consequence of her victory. Poland has not made war on the Russian nation, and has the most sincere desire to live on peace ful and friendly terms with her east ern neighbors. Peaceful relations be tween Poland and Russia will be eas ily established if the real spirit of justice and sound common sense dic tates to both the mutual territorial concessions which, based upon the wish of the local population, economic necessities and national rights, will create a state of things that will ren der Impossible a feeling of suffered wrong. - "The Polish government, however, has the honor to draw the attention of the United States to the circum stance that the provisional eastern frontier laid down by the peace con ference has not been respected by the bolsheviki. .In spite of the diplomatic intervention of our allies, the red army has for a whole month advanced andAravaged territory which is ad mitted by all as being' ethnograph ically Polish. Danger la Faced Alone. "Notwithstanding the sympathetic attitude of our allies, the Polish na tion had to face the danger alone, and practical events proved that it must. In the first place, rely on its own mil itary strength. If military operations necessitated the measures to prevent a renewed invasion of Poland, it could hardly be considered fair that artifi cial boundaries that do not bind one opponent . should Interfere with the military operations of the other. "However, the Polish government hopes that a speedy and Just peace will put aside any differences- which might arise in the case of further war. It is very gratifying for the Polish nation to feel that in the efforts to arrive at a just peace it has the support of the United States gov ernment's sympathetic attitude." l!II(Ili((lll!!IIIIII!lilllllll!llllll!(!!S!II!lill!l!lllll!ll!!III! r Principal Portland Agents Butterick Patterns E All New Fall Styles Now Showing New Fall E Delineator Now In New Fall Fashion Sheets Free for the Asking.

SALEM, Or., Sept. 2. (Special.) Governor Oleott's recent action in naming a committee to devise plans for conserving Oregon s natural beau ties, and especially the timber along the scenic highways, has struck a re sponsive chord in Clatsop county, ac cording to a letter received at the ex ecutive offices today from Frank Pat ton, cashier of the Astoria Savings bank. "Some years ago," said Mr. Patten, "the company of which I was presi dent, gave a right-of-way to the state of Oregon through lands covered with beautiful timber. When we gave the right-of-way we made no provision that those exceptional specimens of yellow fir should be left standing.
