139 feet 9 Inches, and M. J. Sheridan, of
the Irish-American Athletic Club, of New

the Intercollegiate mile champion, cut
the 1500-meters record from 4:05 2-5 to
4:01 1-5, and J. A. Rector, of the Uni
versity of Virginia, who is reported to
have sprinted the 100-yard dash in
! 2-5 this year, equalled the 100-meters
(10! yards) record of 10 4-6 seconds in
winning the first trial heat in that
event. The greatest interest was taken
in the 100-metcrs race because of the
many fast men entered.
Kelly Did Xot Run.
D. J. Kelly, of Spokane, "Wash., who
holds the record of 9 3-5 for the 100
yard dash, did not run because of a
lame leg. Rector, M. J. Cartmell, of the
University of Pennsylvania, the Inter
collegiate 100 and 200 yard champion,
and Lawson Robertson of the I. A. A.
C, qualified without trouble. The fail
ure of F. M. Ramsdell, of the Univer
sity of Texas, who is said to have done
the 100 yards in 9 4-5, was a surprise.
It was anybody' race In the final heat
almost to the tape, but Robertson by a
great effort managed to finish in front,
with Rector second and Cartmell third.

THIS IS NEEDLESS.
Nobody Can "Straighten Out" a Su
preme Folly.
PORTLAND, Or., June 6. (To the
Editor.) In regard to the Statement
No. 1 question, now being discussed
seriously for the first time, can you
tell me what a Republican representa
tive in the Legislature who has taken
the Statement No. 1 pledge is going to
do about his oath that he will be called
on to take before he assumes his seat?
There Is no question as to the meaning
of Statement No. 1. Certain parties,
desirous of legislative honors, agreed
to vote for the Senatorial candidate
receiving the greatest vote. But did
they know at that time that they have
to qualify before becoming a member
of the Legislature by taking an oath
to support the Constitution of the
United States? Or, if they knew that,
how do they interpret that oath? Un
der the United States Constitution, the
Legislature elects the United States
Senator in accordance with the views
of the individuals composing the Leg
islature. Now, a Republican who is
elected as a Republican can hardly say
his choice for Senator is a Democrat,
but he must so claim. In view of his
oath. The United States Constitution
was discussed for months when it was
framed, and for a man elected to our
Legislature to plead ignorance of the
fact that the United States Constitu
tion Intends the Individuals of the Leg
islature to abide by their own honest
Judgment In choosing a United States
Senator, Is an Indication that the re
call ought to be used.
When a man takes an oath at the
Legislature to use his own honest
Judgment as to the political And per
sonal fitness of a Senatorial candidate,
and when he has declared he is a Re
publican and has voted and worked
against Governor Chamberlain on po
litical grounds, how can he conscien
tiously vote for him? That Is what
the oath means to use his own hon
est judgment. History shows this for
one thing, but In addition, the very
fact that the Statement No. 1 method
is used (instead of having the vote di
rect by the people), shows that the in
dividuals who prepared the Statement
No. 1 plan were aware of the restric
tions of the United States Constitu
tion. The Statement No. 1 scheme was
advocated by the reformer to remove
fraud. What does the reformer call
an Intentional and aforethought con
tempt for an oath to his country?
What difference Is there between
breaking this oath for votes and break,
ing it for money? In short, does a
legislator owe allegiance to his coun
try and Is he bound by Its laws and
the oath he takes, or does he owe no
allegiance to his country, being free
to construe hia oath anyway he sees
fit? The oath of office, to a Repub
lican Representative or Senator, Is di
rectly contradictory to Statement No. 1.
Which one is he going to break?
Can you, Mr. Editor, straighten this
out? If this position is correct, and
the papers seem to say it is, will the
United States Senate seat a Senator
elected by a manifest abuse of the
oath of office ' by the legislators who
elected him? If this position is not
correct. If the oath to support the
Constitution of the United States
means that the people elect the Sena
tor, then Statement No. 1 is all right.

The Senate will seat the man, for It
will make no inquiry into the foolery

RUSH GOLD OUT OF ALASKA
Haste Due to Desire to Save Interest

SRATTLK. Wash., June . (Special.)

WINNER OF SECOND PRIZE FOR RUNABOUT IN THE DECORATED AUTO PARADE
Seattle from Alaska, and at least $1,000.
000 for one Seattle bank Is awaiting the
arrival of steamships at Nome. Back of
this is a great accumulation of the pre

side as soon as the season is under way.
Time is an important consideration in the
handling of the metal. The interest on
J3.100.000 is $500 a day, at 6 per cent, and
while the gold is in transit the interest
Is lost. The loss for the twenty days It
takes to bring the gold to the outside
amounts to about $20,000.
Of the gold on the way. Dexter, Horton

amount, J2,000,000 being consigned to that
bank.

t
lngton, May 18. Inquiries have been
made of Senators and Representatives
by soldiers who served in the Philip
pines, as to the cause of delay in deliv
ering the bronze m'edals which were
authorized by the act of June 29, 19J6.
Investigation at the War Department
discloses the fact that these medals are
ready for distribution, but are sent out
only upon the application of the soldier.
They are distributed by the Quartermaster-General,
United States Army,
and applications addressed to him here
will be promptly honored.
The act authorizing the issuance of
these medals provided for striking oil
such medals of bronze, bearing suitable
device, "to each of the several officers
and enlisted men and families of such
as may be dead, who, having volun

"PuGniETHESieiFFS
CULLEX-SCALER BOUT HELD ON
PUGET SOUND BOAT.
Twenty Rounds Declared a Draw,
After Desperate Erforts to Avoid
Officers of Three Counties.
SEATTLE, Wash., June 6. (Special.)
After dodging the Sheriffs of King,
Snohomish and Island Counties, Dick
Cullen, of Australia, and "Kid" Scaler,
of Spokane, went 20 rounds to a draw on
the lower deck of the excursion steamer
Y'oscmite early this evening. The
Yosemite ran circles iu Puget Sound at
the Intersection of the three Counties.
The fight had been announced to be
held In Snohomish County, 15 miles
from Seattle, but the Sheriff was on
hand and. served notice that It could
not take place there. It was then pro
posed to hold It in Island County, In the
middle of the Sound, but the authori
ties were there equally obdurate, and
there was no chance in King County,
where the lid has long been oil. So a
15-foot ring was erected on deck.
Although it was pulled off under dif
ficulties, the spectators saw a rattling
good fight. Cullen, when the decision
was announced, attempted to .resume
hostilities. While the edge was Scal
er's on in-fighting, Cullen outpointed
the Spokane boy on boxing and finished
exchanges. Neither man was at any
time in danger of a knock-out, and
both finished strong. Not a knock
down was scored during the entire en
gagement. Goes East for Prisoner.

for the finals in the 100, but evidently
decided to leave the race in Smithson's
hands and save himself for the longer
sprints. Huston's victory gives him a
clean sweep of every event of the kind
in the Northwest for the present sea
son, and leaves no question as to his
title as the champion entry In the 100
yard dash for 1S08.
The victory of Gerhardt In the 220
yard run came as a surprise to many
of the wise ones, who figured either
Martin or Malcolmson as the most
probable winner and the time to be at
most 22 seconds. The night previous
to the race Gerhardt announced that
he would win, if the event was run in
two-fifths of a second slower, and his
prophecy was realized. Gcrhardt's vic
tory in the 220 was a most popular one.
judging from the applause he received
.when, the announcement was made. In
this event the Callfornian had a slight
advantage In securing an outside lane
at the start. The Inside course, drawn
by Malcolmson, the Montana whirl
wind, running under the colors of the
Seattle Athletic Club, was sandy at the
start and furnished poor footing for
the Seattle mans' get-away.
Gain9 on the W inner.
Despite this handicap, Malcolmson
gained steadily on the San Franciscan,
and had the route been 10 yards longer,
would probably have overhauled the
winner. The tow-headed lad ran a
splendid race and many of his admir
ers were greatly disappointed when he
failed to capture the event, and sym
pathized with him when they learned
of the bad start he secured.
The performance of Forrest Smith
son in the 120-yard hurdles was the
most remarkable event of the meet, and
came nearer to equalling a record than
any other event. The course of this
event was practically straightaway,
and bad it not been for the slight turn
at the finish, after the runner had
leaped the last hurdle, he would un
doubtedly have equalled the world's
record of 15 1-5 seconds. Smithson's
time in this event was 15 2-5, a most
remarkable showing, considering the
fact that Smithson had strained a ten
don earlier in the meet. The attending
trainers and physicians bound the
Multnomah star's leg to hold the mus
cles in place, and he continued in the
meet.
Seattle Takes Low Hurdles.
The next sprinting event of importance
was the 220-yard hurdles. This event
went to Seattle, . for Malcolmson. after
running second to Browdie of Multnomah
In the second trial heat, came to the
front in the strongest manner and cap
tured the final in 26 1-6 seconds on the
somewhat slow track. The Seattle man
took things easy In his trial heat and
when the final event was called, was In
splendid trim. He forged to the front
at the start and kept the lead nicely,
leaping his hurdles accurately, and went
through the entire course without tip
ping a barrier. Little Bherle Kuykendall,
the University of Oregon competitor,
proved as game a stayer as was Malcolm
son, and when the latter breasted the
tape, the Eugene lad was close behind.
Andy Glarner, another California
veteran, proved the victor in the half
mile event, but was spiked in the heel
while attempting to cut In ahead of one
of his competitors. On that account he
failed to- start in the mile run. In the
half mile event Glarner, who will bs
remembered as the victor in the middle
distance events held here during the
Lewis and Clark Exposition, had com
paratively easy going, for Davolt, who
finished second, made no effort to close
the gap opened by the Californian. Davolt
seemingly was content to take second
place, which he was as sure of as was
Glarner of his position. Glarner won
this event in the slow time of 2:04, and
then reilred until the quarter mile event
was called.
Mile Goes to Davolt.
In the meantime, the mile run was
called and four started. As a general
rule, the long-distance runs are not
often closely contested, but the finish
between Davolt, of Multnomah, and
Smith, of the Seattle Athletic Club,
was so close that many of the specta
tors were inclined to take issue with
the judges when Davolt was an
nounced as the winner. Davolt won
without any question, although the
strong spurt by the Seattle youngster
made It appear as though he had
passed the Multnomah man at the fin
ish line. This little fellow from Puget
Sound is a good runner, and his per
formance against the older and more
experienced runners is worthy of
praise. Gammle. of Multnomah, took
third place without opposition, for the
other starters dropped out before the
last lap.
Glarner tried for the honors In the
quarter-mile, and in spite of his sor.5
heel, set the pace for a goodly part of
the distance. His foot pained him con
siderably, however, and Greenhaw, of
Multnomah, who had kept directly be
hind the Callfornian up to the stretch,
spurted beautifully and gained the
lead, which Glarner was unable to
overcome. Glsh, of Seattle, hooked
third place by a strong spurt at the
finish.
One Club in the Relay.
The relay race for the seniors was a
disappointment, as the two Multnomah
Club teams were the only contestants.
Malcolmson, Glsh and Clark, of Seattle,
were the only men on hand from that
club and, as four were required, their
team could not enter. The Olympic
Club and Oregon each lacked two run
ners. The fcvent was won by the Mult
nomah quartette composed of Martin,
Davolt. Humphries and Greenhaw.
Previous to the senior relay the big
crowd was aroused to a high pitch of
enthusiasm by the races between the
grammar school lads and the high
school and academic teams. The little
fellows entered Into the spirit of the
thing with much enthusiasm. The team
representing the Hawthorne School
took first place and carried off the
cup offered by Multnomah. The Haw
thorns Schonl team is composed of
strongly-built lads who promise to be
come stars on the cinder path if they
keep in the sport. Professor Robert
Krohn, physical director of the public
schools, was most enthusiastic over
this, portion of the field meet. The
boys ran the four-fifths of a mile In
the excellent time of 3 minutes 9 J-5
seconds.
The high school relay was a pretty
race for the first two laps, but after
that the Tacoma High School boys
forged ahead, and when their col
ored relay took up the last lap. he
spurted around the track so fast that
the others were left far behind when
he crossed the tape. The Columbia
1'nlverslty relay entries then fought It
out with their old-time rivals from
Portland Academy, and tne latter team
won second place by an exceedingly
narrow margin.
Multnomah Captures Weights.
Multnomah captured a majority of
the points in the weight events, and
also showed fairly well In tile Jumps.
Carl Wolff and S. B. Hall took the 16
pound shot and hammer events. Bant a.
of Seattle, took the honors in the dis
cus, when he heaved the weight 121
feet, 9 Inches. Wolff won the shot
put with a toss of 41 feet. 11 inches.
Hall's throw of the hammer was 140
feet, 6 Inches.
Eberle Kuykendall. of the University
of Oregon, took first place In the
broad jump, with a leap of 21 feet.
1H4 inches. Chapman, Lounsberry
and Smithson took all the places in the
order named In the high jump. Chap
man's jump was 5 feet, 9 inches.
F. Lanagan. of the Olympic Club,
captured the pole vault with a mark
of 10 feet. inches. Kuykendall was
second and Lounsberry third. Lanagan
attempted to break the Northwest rec
ord of 11 feet, 7 2-5 Inches, but failed
In three trials, with the bar set at 11
feet, S Inches.
Meet la AYell Conducted.
The Multnomah Club committee In
charge of the field meet is deserving
of praise for the able manner in which
they conducted the events. No delays
were experienced, and despite the con
dition of the field, which is not yet
completed, the events went like clock
work. Archie Hahn. coach at Pacific Univer
sity, and formerly a sprinter of note, of
ficiated as starter, and succeeded in get
ting the runners off in every event In
the neatest manner imaginable. Only one
Instance of penalizing occurred, and that
was when Martin was set back two yards
In the 220-yard dash for starting too soon.
Frank J. Lonergan, with the runners, and
Frank El Watkins. with the weight and
field men, deserve credit for the able
manner In which they gathered the com
petitors together at the various starting
points.
President Goldsmith, of the Seattle
Athletic Club, stated that he was ex
tremely well pleased with the meet, and
said that he had nothing to offer but the
highest praise for the able manner in
which the Multnomah Club handled the
meet. Both the Seattle Athletic Club and
the Olympic Club, of San Francisco, with
their small number of entries, did excel
lently well, and too much praise cannot
be extended the four men entered by the
University of Oregon.
