meets, have been a very formidable
pair of sprinters and Cartrr.vll ha
had rather an easy time In winning
the championship title for the 100
and 220-yard dashes In 1906 and 1907.
In April Stevens, the Yale sprinter,
who in spite of an Injured leg, per
formed so brilliantly against Harvard,
took Cartmell's measure and today
he looks good to repeat In the inter
collegiate. Cornell Is not hoping for much In
the sprints or In the hurdles, but Yalo
In the latter events expects to pick
up a few points with Howe and Rob
bins, although Shaw of Dartmouth is
conceded fast. With Garrells out of
the running. Robbing has a look In
for a second In the 120-yard event,
while Howe may land a third In the
220-yard timbers.
Taylor of Penn. If right Is booked
for the quarter. Coholan of Yale was
second in this event a year ago, and
while Trainer Johnny Mack will be
without his services at the coming
games, he has In LaMontagne a fine
440-yard man who may be a second
place winner, although he will have a
hard fight for It with Carpenter of
Cornell.
Cornell has for the past three years
shown great strength In the distance
run, and it Is in the half, mile and
two-mile events that Trainer Jack
Moakley will again make his grand
fight. Here again he will have to face
men trained to the minute by Keene
Fitzpatrlck, and some more grand
races and close finishes between the
Ithacans and Wolverines are expected
to take place. Yale also may slip In
for a few points In all of the runs
that will help out In the grand total
and land her a winner.
Cook of Cornell looks like a winner
of the broad Jump, for recently he
covered 23 feet 1H inches. Michigan
also has some good men for this event
and the chances are that the two col
leges will divide the points unless
Simons vf Princeton slips In for a
place.
In the pole vault. Cook of Cornell.
Gilbert of Yale, and Dray of Yale,
should have a great fight, and the
points here will look as If they would
be divided between the two colleges.
The high Jump and shot put are
very doubtful events. This is chiefly
because there are no excptionally
good men. Kruger of Swarthmore.
should be the winner in the latter.
Horr of Syracuse, Is booked for a first
in the hammer, but Cooney of Yale,
should take a second.
Taken as a whole, the meet this
year should be an exceptional one,
with a close fight between Cornell,
Yale, Michigan and perhaps Penn
sylvania all the way.

CORNELL OR YALE
PICKED TO WI.
Philadelphia. May 29. The pick
and pink of the athletes of all the
great universities and colleges of the
east and middle west congregated on
rranklin Field at the University of
Pennsylvania today for the prelimi
nary events In the big Inter-collegiate
championship meet. Cornell or Yale
is picked as the winner by the majori
ty of the experts, although It is admit
ted that Michigan and Pennsylvania
have a fighting chance. Harvard and
Princeton are believed to be hopeless
ly out of the race. The meet will be
continued tomorrow, when the big
events of the program will be decided.
Pennsylvania, the winner of a year
ago, does not size up formidably, for
while Stevens, the Yale sprinter. Is
cutting Into Mike Murphy's hopes in
the dashes, Cornell distance men will
te doing things in the runs.
The University of Michigan will
again be the dark horse In the run
ning. Princeton, Harvard, Syracuse
and Dartmouth will trail.
Recently Yale and Cornell both
showed their real strength, for while
the wearers of the blue were down
ing the crimson 60 1-5 points to 43
4-5, Cornell took the Princeton Tigers
Into camp by a score of 80 to 37.

(Irrlgon Irrigator.)
Four years ago when Mr. Phelps
was elected prosecuting attorney for
this district, embracing Umatilla and
Morrow counties, there were some
who did not think "Bert" had the
backbone to enforce the law In Pen
dleton as to gambling and unlawful
liquor selling, and there were others
who did not think he could hold his
own against some of the able attor
neys of this district when pitted
against them In important cases.
But Mr. Phelps has not onty done
his full duty against the lawbreak
ers of Pendleton and all other parts
of the district, but he has worsted
every attorney who ran against him,
or at least he has won nine-tenths
of the suits he has Instituted, convic
ted more than nine-tenths of the
criminals he has prosecuted, and It
must be remembered that he has had
to handle almost twice as many crim
inal cases as any former prosecutor
in the district.
Having made such an exceptionally
good record, one of ,the best ever
made by a public prosecutor In Ore
gon, "Bert" now asks our votes again
and he should get every ballot cast In
Morrow county for that office. Let
us show him, and the people at large,
that we appreciate the sort of work
he has done, and return him by an
overwhelming majority.

Remarkable
Admissions
Made By the Foremost Prohibition Journal
in This Country.
The National Prohibitionists
of Chicago and New York, In
their Issue of January 9, 1908,
quoting the official statistics,
showing the revenues from beer
and spirits during 1906 to have
been $199,035,913, and in 1907,
1215,904,720, In an editorial
makes the following comment:
"It seems to us that these
figures teach, as clearly as any
thing can be taught, that the
kind of prohibition which we
have had up to the present time
la not a cure for the drink evil
and does not even approach a
cure. We are frequently told
that many millions, a third,
perhaps a half of the popula
tion of the United States, live
under prohibition. The state
ment Is true only In a very mod
ified sense, and the showing of
the article In question empha
sizes Us lack of exactness.
"In strict fact, no part of the
United States today has real
prohibition. The sale of liquor
is forbidden In certain sections;
the manufacturer of liquor Is
also forbidden within limited
areas. The forbidding Is made
good so far aa the manufacture
Is concerned, in the greater part
of the so-called Prohibition ter
ritory, and we begin to have
considerable sections of the
country where comparatively
little liquor is sold, but the re
suits of drink selling in the
wider sphere of Its Influence
still reach the whole country,
and, to a very large extent,
through Interstate commerce
and other meant, drink-selling
goes on through the whole
country."
