According to the following special dispatch to the Oregonian from Eu gene. Judge Stephen A. Lowell of this city is making an effective campaign for the candidacy of H. M. Cake: In a most masterly address at the court house this evening, before a large audience, Judge Lowell, of Pen dleton, answered effectively every ar gument made by Governor Chamber lain, why he should go to the senate. He showed up in clear, logical and effective manner the true conditions In the senatorial fight and made a plea to the voters to stand for Oregon and the interests of the great north west by voting for a republican sena tor who could be in a better position to act with the administration and majority side of committees in secur ing appropriations. He was applauded to the echo and made many friends. He also brought encouraging news from the southern and eastern parts of the state that the university appropriation would carry by a handsome majority. Six Contracts Were Forged.

He was seemingly off color yesterday and did some wild throwing. Munson was likewise rank behind the bat, dropping balls or allowing them to go by while his throwing to bases was of the order that makes the local rooters swear. Though the contest yesterday was of the heart rending kind there came a few sensations just before the close. One of these ras the attempt of Ben Gerklng to make way with a bull which had been sent over the fence on a foul. It soon became ev ident that the doughty little mascot was not speedy enough to catch the young thief so Dean Tatom started In pursuit with a burst of speed that would make Dan Kelley's best record seem slow. He was followed by, an auto and last but not least, Audrey Graham with his speedy trotter, tore up the dust In mad pursuit. Young Gerklng was overtaken by the auto and the ball taken from him but not until he had left the ball ground about a quarter of- a mile In the rear. But If the players were off color yesterday they were not lonesome fot Umpire Buerstatte outdid them all. His calling "ball" whe;i the batter swung nt it, was only one of several raw decisions he announced yesterday. Unless Pendleton people turn out In larger numbers than they did yes terday it is evident that the league will "be a failure from a financial standpoint. It was a disgracefully small turnout. Manager Lorlmer is fast getting to gether a bunch of real ball players and with the proper encouragement they will put up the right kind of a game. The team is unquestionably better than Walla Walla's lineup and Is probably the best In the league.
