Gear's Cause Weaker.
Salem, Mlarch 17. The defeat of
Joseph Simon, United States senator,
and political boss, in the primary
election in Portland Saturday, is ad
mitted here to have weakened Goer's
cause in seeking the renomination for
governor, and strengthened that of
W. J. Furnish, of Umatilla, for the
nomination for that office. Although
the Geer forces insist that Geer's
strength in no way depends upon that
of Simon, it is apparent by their dis
appointment over Simon's defeat that
they down in their hearts know their
doom is written upon . the wall and
Geer will not succeed himself in the
gubernatorial chair.

at Lincoln today, is of particular In

fore and, what is more interesting,
the expatriated Wtlllam Waldorf Aa
tor has announced his intention to
race a stable of thoroughbreds that
will give the millionaire American on
the English turf a hard battle for
first honors.
It is interesting to note, also, in
view of the loud outcry from some
quarters regarding the American in
vasion, that in three handicaps to be
run during the Lincolnshire meeting,
the top weight in each case is an
American horse.
The piece de resistance of the Lin
colnshire meeting is the mile handi
cap, worth $10,000, which has been for
nearly a century the first important
race of the year. The Lincoln meet
ing lasts only three days, after which
the racing is transferred to Liverpool
to finish up the week. There the
spring cup is n feature, but it is en
tirely overshadowed by the Grand
National, which, with the exception
pf the Derby, attracts the biggest
crowd of any race in the world. The
distance is four and one-half miles
and the number of obstacles to be
crossed 32.
