Between September 4 and 9 the fastest horses of the West will be on the Country Club track, contesting- for the nrlzes offered by the Portland Fal & Livestock Association. No higher purses for harness events have been hune ud in the west. This is the second season that Port land has offered a 110.000 trottin purse, and a S5000 pace prize, which fact accounts for attracting here more of the harneBS cracks than have ever before gathered on a Paciflo Coast traca. Horses Are Arriving. , Arrivals of the fast stock, that has been racing- in Sacramento and vancou ver, B. C, the past week, began yes orrlav. The heaviest lists win com from California.

Portland Meet Stellar. Portland's meet this year Is classed among the Grand Circuit affairs of the East. It Is conceded to De tne oiue rru hon event of the West for 1911. Rec ords are expected. For months the fair imnuement has been working- on th truck, to soften it slightly, as it has been hard in the past, and now the mil elllr.se has a soft, springy sunace, which the trainers declare exceptionally foet Nn doubt la felt that many track and state records will be pruned at this meet, for the stock is in signt to oo the work. ' In California some of the best purses ! in three stralsrht heats. Such a matter-of-course procedure will be im possible here, unless the big ones suffer some unforseen indisposition- in transit to Portland. So evenly are tne leaders in th 110.000 trot -and the $5000 pace matched that a long-drawn contest. Is Drobable each day. Some of the fastest work to be witnessed during the meet will be In other races than the big purse affairs. Northern Entries Fast. Many surprises are expected from Vancouver, B. 'C, ty xoaay ana loraur row. The Western Canadian and Pa cific Northwest horses participating ' there have been developing better time than they had been credited witn prior. and when this bevy comes south to- com pete against the California champions, there can be no further hesitancy in prophesying the hardest fought speed 1 . . i .. 1 f q Wot t Aside from the entries in the big trot Thursday, and the main pace Wednes day, there will be extraordinary har ness animals seen -on the County Club track during the week. The 2:15 pace Monday, Labor Day, has. a long list of entries. Including many illustrious names.N The 2:08 trot, Tuesday will, see - a more limited contest between a half dozen of the best animals the West has ever produced, the entries for this event being Helen Stiles, victor here last year; Prince Lot, the main con tender in the struggle with Helen Stiles; Alfreda B, a promising mare not well known here; Zombronut, the beautiful and fast offspring of the fa mous Zombro, - owned by President Johnston Porter, of the Portland Fair & Livestock Exposition: Daybreak, a 2:08 favorite from Colorado, and Lee Crawford, who is backed as a victor in the great Thursday trot. This race is but one of several distributed through the week which will call out the best. i Low Rates Made. Every possible arrangement that could be made by the Fair management for the eomfort and pleasure of the vis itors at the Country Club track dur ing the week has been looked after. Transportation Is of course the first consideration. In getting to the city, the O.-W. R. & N. and all other Har rlman lines, have given a one and 'one third round-trip fare. In the city. President B. S. Josselyn, of the Portland Railway, Light & Pow er Company, has guaranteed a com plete and efficient car service. He will run four, six and eight-car electric trains from 11 'o'clock each day until 2:30 P. M., to convey the throngs - to the track. These trains will run at the rate of 10 each hour, on the Rose . City Park line. They will have a ca pacity for handling from B000 to 7000 people an hour, and will be able to de liver at the track from 15.000 to 18,000 persons in 'the period fixed for ope-' rating these trains. Band Will Play. In the amusement line the manage ment has provided the best that could be secured, for the brief Intervals be tween race heats. There will be band music each afternoon, before the races, at every other unused interval, and after. The Metropolitan Quartet will be on the programme every day after Monday. R. C Lucas, the Arizona champion broncho "buster" and rope thrower, will give performances. Hundreds of race fans are coming to the meet, from all parts of the North west, and a few from beyond the Rocky Mountains. They are drawn by the mere prospect of superlative speed con tests. There will be no betting or pool selling permitted, as it is a cardinal principle of the Portland Fair & Live stock Exposition that all events must be on a strict sporting basis, without a taint or illegal practice. Last year re markable success was attained in this direction. The most rigid observance of starting schedules will be insisted upon. Where horses fail to appear within the limit, the race will proceed without them. -' - I i rihi' fcJI JM i i . z?s&..a.j$ JL .-9ef -r-fJ V. .... :.' , One heat will be called Immediately after another is finished. " . There will be from two to three run ning races each day, and' the Portland Hunt Club will put on three contests between Its members. One snappy hurdle run Is promised for Monday, Labor Day. To open the meet pro pitiously, a strong list is slated for Monday. OREGON", SCENERY LIKES BEST Automobile Tourist Says . California Cannot Compare, i Another boost for Northwestern roads Is Iven by H. G. Brace, the Portland-Seattle automobile enthu siast, who is touring California- with his wife and little son Jack. In a letter to a Portland friend, Mr. Brace is emphatic in declaring that Oregon, Washington and British Columbia have scenic advantages far excelling those to be found in the Southern states. And as for roads, the North western territory is a great deal su perior to California, he declares. ' "The only really enjoyable part of the Journey," says Mr. Brace, "was the short trips around Santa Cruz. ' The motoring through the mountains Is delightful, but the roads are anything but of Oregon style. The trip to Ben Lomond, Boulder" Creek, the big" red trees, Felton, the fish hatcheries at Great Basin and the winding roads to Davenport furnish scenery that can not be surpassed. Hotel accommodations are much better than in Oregon and Washing ton, and this is something the North ern people want to wake up to. If we had good hotels we would take away a great deal of the auto tourist trade from California. . The Journey to San Francisco from Seattle, Wash., took two weeks. , They passed much time in seeing 'the won ders along the way and taking short side trips off the main highways. Mr. Brace win ship his car from San Francisco to Seattle, Wash. Chicago Typoe Take Trophy, ST. LOUIS, Sept. 2.

The Seattle team, which is having a hard battle to hold third place, comes secpnd, leading Vancouver, the league leaders, by one point. All of which goes to show that hard-hitting teams are not always the most reliable winning combination. : Grouping the individual batting rec ords this week by teams, it is interest ing to note just what man has the dis tinction of "showing his --teammates the way." Tour team leaders are: Spokane Klppert, cf. Seattle Bues, 3b. Vancouver Brashear, lb.-Portland- Moore, c. Tacoma Lynch, cf. Victoria Goodman, 3b. '.. A Seattle' Takes One Lead. ' Seattle leads in long distance slug ging, but, of course, owes that prestige . . v. a t , , . . ' mi fejiuib icqlb over wnicxi ner play ers have driven 95 per cent of her 82 home runs. Spokane's long distance batting Is really more legitimate, al though ss bases behind Seattle. - Vancouver still leads In base running with the Indians a good second and a pretty race between Portland and Ta coma for third place. ' . . Bues easily retains his DremiershiD. although his average has dropped off slightly of late. He is also the heavy slugger, cooney leads In the run-get ting, being the first Northwestern Leaguer to pass the century mark. Leard, of Seattle, is his nearest rival. Bennett is still the leadllfg base runner with Netzel, Cooney and Bassey rank ing next in order. Averages follow: PORTLAND BOXER SEEKS MATCH San .Francisco Mlddlew eights Chal Ienged by Jack' Rice.
