There are 900,000 dead throughout.the Brit ish empire as the proof of our friendship. The evidence of our friendship is scattered over very extensive graveyards in France and rn - Flanders. 'Protect us against our friends?' No. I would ask him not , to repeat: that. Not to repeat that 900,000 dead.

B.ut there has been progress all the time, i The Hayes brothers have 708 acres there, 550 acres of which is beaver dam. . In the past year they have slashed 186 acres of the willow grove and tangle of brush on their tract; it is now all slashed but 35 'acres. t i , " It will take more than another year : to' finish clearing the last acre of their land. In 1925 they expect to have their whole tract in crops, working it all themselves and through lessees. During a large part of the past summer one might have seen 70 to 75 people working on the Hayes tract. F When their land is all ander : cultivation, 1 there will be found 275 to 300 people work ing "there a large part of every year. iThey have a great deal less than -v fourth of all the beaver dam land in the Labish Meadows district.

"Where can I find Mrs. Sande," was the question fired at the ob liging secretary yesterday by a seeker after Information.

"Why Mrs. Sande, Earl Sande's mother, of course." And at the blank look on the secretary's face, the questioner continued, "You know, Earl Sande who is to ride Zev Saturday." . The latter sentence was a state ment and not a question and the secretary was obliged to confess she did not know Earl Sande. ' .

(By the Associated Press.) -The Interna tional challenge cup, which will be at stake In the $100,000 interna tional race at Belmont park, is one of the handsomest , trophies ever offered for thoroughbred competition. The cup is of solid gold, stands about 12 inches high and weighs about 100 ounces. It is a hand made copy of a cup fashioned in 1707 during the reign of Queen Anne, a period when racing was most popular and had royal sup port.

(Spe cial to The Statesman.) A com pilation of voters, of Polk county just ' completed by . County Clerk Floyd D. Moore shows that the Republicans outnumber the Dem ocrat two to one. Mr. Moore's figures show that there are 4,187 Republicans; - 2.075 Democrats; while those of miscellaneous poli tics re but 354, ' Though; the - Jockey ' club com mittee's decision, made' public by Major August Belmont,- had - the effect of restoring to some extent the waning confidence in " 'this country's representative, -general belief prevailed that, regardless of the seriousness of his malady. Zev would go to the barrier under a handicap. ' . ' English Horse Favorite- And as a result, betting odds, which had declined to even money yesterday arter a spectacular final workout by Papyrus, swung sharp ly tonight toward the English horse which was expected to go to the barrier tomorrow after noon at four o'clock a favorite, probably at odds of 6 to 5. M : L Zev will be gone over thorough ly by trainer and veterinarian to morrow morning, when it will be possible to determine more fully the effects of' his malady. The Jockey club, under I its agreement with Ben Irish, owner of Papyrus, has the right to make a substitution at the last minute and My Own, the first substitute, will be held ready until race time. "Zev's condition and the sensa tional turn it has given to devel opments were the chief topics on the eve of the international clas sic, which is expected to attract a notable throng of close to 100, 000 turf followers to the pictur esque scene of the match. The gate receipts. It was indicated, may . reach $500,000, .thus setting a new record in " American thor oughbred racing annals. - Weather Unimportant ; Prospects or inclement weather and a resultant . heary track to night gave another topic for spec ulation, though It did not dampen the ardor of turf enthusiasts. :v The condition of the track, how ever, probably will not affect the relative chances of either Zev - or Papyrus, as both are acknowledg ed good "mud horses." Zev, par ticularly has' shown a liking for heavy going, winning four of his two-year-old faces ' on heavy tracks, ' while Papyrus, though he has been favored by good going in most of his races, won the Duke of York stakes this season In mud.
