and Is not a position that can be
filled properly by an Indifferent citi
ren. I believe in positive, aggressive
force," said Dr. Smith, whose nom
inating petition Is signed by 700 tax
payers. "On of the most important
things to me in the education of chil
dren, and something that has been
more or lens neglected, is the teaching
of patriotism and loyalty to country.
Good Citizenship restore.
"This ia the foundation ol good cltl
. aenshlp and with this firmly inculcat
ed in the minds of the young, we need
not fear that their education will be a
failure in the event that they over
look some fad or frill."
Dr. Smith is a native of Maryland

He was Justice of the peace fo.- the

. Individualistic Plan Favored.
"I believe in the individualistic. sys
tern of education," he said today.
"Kach child should be educated along
1 Its natural bent. I stand for less frills

represent all of the people and stand
for an honest administration and lower
taxes."
Discussing his withdrawal, Mr. Mil
ler declared this morning that attacks
upon him, unjust and false as, he al
leges them to be, have had nothing to
do with his decision not to remain
a candidate. The condition of his
health, he said, is the sole reason for
' hla withdrawal, his statement being
as iouows:
Charges Are Refuted.
On the advice of my physician. I
have been compelled to withdraw my
name aa .a candidate for school di
rector at the coming election on the
15th instant. I desire to say that this
action has been taken solely on the ad

MEASURE EFFECTIVE NOW
Old Ordinance on Subject Will Also Be
Enforced. Law In rorco During
Summer IContha.
At wheel Is A
Edwards, a well-known local race driver who will pilot big six-cylinder Palmer-Singer
'car. Merrill Mosrea, one of the Portland entrants in race.
Everything at the Rose City Speed-1
way is now in readiness for the big
automobile races that are to be held
tomorrow and Sunday. Yesterday aft
ernoon the first of the trial spins were
taken by the cars and only one ma
chine out of the nine that were at the
track failed to negotiate the mile In
less than 60 seconds. When one stops
to consider that this time was made
over a course that has not yet been
prepared to .eliminate the dust, it can
readily be appreciated that Portland
is to see for the first time real auto
mobile racing.
Four of the Portland entries were
on hand with their cars and all of the
boys who will drive are showing the
race men from the north that they
will have to move fast if they expect
to get away with the money being
hung up by the Portland Automobile
club.
Merrill Moores, who has entered his
Palmer-Singer, arrived at the track a
little late with A. J. Edwards at the
wheel, and when the big six cylinder
machine finally began to roar around
the track, every spectator grabbed for
his watch in an endeavor to get a line
on what Is considered by the "wise
ones along the rail" aa the dark
horse, would show. The slowest time
announced for the big car was 59
seconds.
Iap In 68 Seconds.
All the foreign entries except one
were present. The one car missing is
the Romano Special which will be
piloted by Percy Barnes. Word was
received this morning by Manager
Johnson that the car would arrive
Saturday morning and is ready to get
into action. With the arrival of this
car, all machines entered will be on the
ground and all are In fine fettle to
race aa they have never done before.'
The fastest lap at the trials was
made by Jim Parsons at the wheel of
the Frantz Special, who did the mile a
shade better than 68 seconds. Parsons
is a driver of known ability, having
won the 100 mile inter-city trophy at
Tacoma last year, and is entered at
Tacoma and Seattle this year. He was
pleased over the condition of the course
as were all the drivers Who drove over
It yesterday. .
The Velle with Henri North as the
seconds, while the Napier with Durray I
at the wheel was another car that
showed she had the speed. The Hud
son, owned and driven by Ernest
Schneider of North Yakima ran nice
ly yesterday, as did the Locomobile
driven by Joe Thomas.
Motorcycles Also Try Out.
The motorcycle entrants were also
on the track yesterday. Among them
were the following: Pope, rider, Roy
Thompson; Pope, Bille Carnahan; Jef
ferson, C- A. Hunt; Merkle, Qus Pep
pel; Harley Davidson, C. C Simmons;
Harley Davidson. Ed Berreth; Indian,
Vern Maskell; Indian, "Red" Cogburn;
Thor, Harry Brant. Two motorcycle
events are scheduled for Saturday and
the riders who finish first and second
in these two events are eligible for
the money In the bdg event of Sunday.
Manager Johnson is arranging the
track and placing it In the finest of
condition, and will apply one coat of
calcium chloride today and another
coat tomorrow, which will lay the dust

have only to say that I have never
