VORED 3 RESIDENT ACKERMAN 53 of the Monmouth Normal school is a booster for a normal school in eastern Ore gon, saying the Monmouth in stitution is unable to meet the needs of the entire state, and he warns that the new school should be located in a town suf ficiently large enough to pro vide all the pupils needed for practice training work. No town under 5000 population will do. I This same advice is given with much force by the United States bureau of education. The bureau aprovides that standard normal school must offer a specified amount of practice training work for its students. The standard set up is one that cannot possibly be met by a school located in a lit tle town. This is one reason why the educators are unani mous for locating the eastern Oregon school in Pendleton. A MISGUIDED EFFORT iff HE now familiar caterpil H lar tractor in use throughout the inland empire, has been brought into play on the side of the allies in Europe. The use of the new war instrument was heralded in news stories several days ago. The New York World commenting on the machine said: In the steel-clad war car which the British have launch ed against the German mili tarism gives birth to a new monster. Gen. Haig terms it a "super-dreadnought of the land." and DerhaDs it is best visualized by conceiving a rude battleship such as the old Con federate ram Merrimac cruis ing over a battle-field, smash ing trees, crushing everything before it and belching forth death into the enemy trenches. Or again, it ig a steel-ribbed armadillo or a mammoth me chanical caterpillar, according to the bent of the imagination. Yet from any point of view it is a very devil wagon of war, well exemplifying the Chinese military principle of terrifying the enemy. No doubt the Germans in the trenches when this devastating monster descended upon them may have felt as the Trojans felt when the wooden horse disgorged the mail-clad Greeks. Here was something worthy of Essen, an enemy war-device matching their own great guns and poisonous gas in novelty and deadliness. And in fact, in the matter of making a business of war, the allies appear to have fully caught up with their foe. The lessons of Prussian prepared ness with war machinery have been learned and applied, and there is no longer the old in equality of munitions and artil lery. In the creation of this deadly and grotesque fighting monster, British inventive gen ius must be said to have out done even Krupp resourcefulness. HAPPY Mill LIVEST IN IKE WHOLE UNITED STATES Happy Canyon broke all previous attendance records last night. More than 4000 paid admissions were re ceived at the big night entertainment and the crowd as estimated ut be tween 5000 and 6000. The show last night was perfect in all respects. Not one hitch occurred and the spectator marveled as he saw presented before him a reproduction of the wild west town of the early days. The "Gambling Palace" and the "Red log Saloon" did a business last night that would put to shame the re sorts of the wooliest and wildest fron tier town In her palmiest day. Sex, color or former condition of servitude is no bar and women as well as the men crowded the roulette wheels last night until they had made a "klllin" " t Gcldsn West Celts Is-JcstRIfihr PROMINENT RAILROAD MEN GATHERED HERE or expended their little roll of bucks. So intense was the excitement that all gambled as though the bucks were real money. Each and every act last night was roundly applauded. The Manhattan trio, the diving act, the dancing nymphs of Mrs. James H. Sturgls, the bulldogging. the bucking horse riding, j Miss Eva De Verna and the cowboy , comedy acts drew forth great applause and laughter. The Happy Canyon dance hall was crowded to capacity last night ami : dancing was enjoyed to the "wee sma" hours of the morning and even at that time the gay festival throng were loath to take to their resting places. A yet larger crowd is anticipated for tonight. OXS'TESTA'TS STttt OlOWP-S. BURING the senatorial j campaign two years ago I an alleged suffrage orga nization attempted to make a j fight on Senator Chamberlain : in this state. It was grossly un- j fair because the senator had been a life-long worker for equal suffrage. The attempt j to injure his candidacy failed j ..11.1 n. . .. .. I ' miseraoiy oecause me peopie resented such tactics. The same results will follow the silly effort to injure Presi dent Wilson and help Hughes. There is not the slightest rea son, from a suffrage standpoint why Husrhes should be favored above Wilson. The president espoused the suffrage cause long before Hughes did. He voted for equal suffrage in New Jersey and publicly supported the cause. There is no essenti al difference between the plat forms of the two parties and the recognized suffrage lead ers are not aligning their cause with either party. They pub licly proclaim both men to be friends of the movement. If there existed any reason why suffrage advocates should consider their cause as involv ed in the presidential campaign the women of Oregon are able to discern trie facts without aid from hired emissaries from other states. It is not surprising that frosty receptions are quite gen erally being tendered the fem inine campaigners. AMOS PINCHOPS VIEW WMOS PINCHOT, who was )ft one of the big men in the progressive fold four years ago, reluses very firmly to fol low the colonel's directions about supporting Hughes. In a recent letter Pinchot said : "For quite a good while, it has been fairly clear to most of us that Roosevelt, Perkins and the steel trust (old guard group around them) have not been interested in the things which the progressive party stood for. In fact, they have effectually thrown all liberal ism and demodracy over board and ?re now playing pure, old fashioned, standpat politics. "Colonel Roosevelt steered the progressive ship so long as the sailing was good. "But unlike the boy who stood on the burning deck (whence all but he had fled) he took a quick jump and left behind his progressive princi ples and most of the real men of the party." The feelings expressed by Mr. Pinchot will be heartily endorsed by a large number of bull moosers who like this man ar now supporting Presi dent Wilson. (Continued from Page 1.) sensational rule on Nutcracker, n crooked little sunfisher. Katie Wilkes of The Dulles also had n hard horse in Ruggs. and she staid in her saddle through all his pitching much to the liking of the spectators. Ollle Osborne of Union sat her sad dle well through the gyrations of Uma tilla. All three of the girl riders to day as well as those yesterday rode with hobbled stirrups. Standing Cowboys' Race. The standing cowboys' race between Sid Seal and Dwlght Zedicar today was another event that brought the, crowd upstanding. The two teams ran abreast almost the entire half mile but . Scale pulled ahead at the last turn and finished a winner by a small mar-! gin. Indian Itolay. In the Indian relay, Robert lUirke again ended a winner today. Steer Roping. Rufus Rollln, Oklahoma cowboy, was the first after his steer in the steer roping contest. He put his first loop over, busted his steer on the track and made his tie in 56 seconds. Charley Wler, who took second to his brother C.eorge yesterday and who had a little hard luck this morning, made a beautiful catch and throw this afternoon. His time was 30 3-5, a mark that only his brother has beaten so far. Eddie McCarty. 1913 champ, made a pretty catch and busted his Bteer hard once he got his horse In position. His time was 52 and 3-5. Frank Roach did not put his loop over the horns until the fourth trial and by that time his two minutes were done. Buff Vernon had some more hard luck In this event. After busting his steer the animal arose again as this morning and Vernon had to retire de feated. When the steer arose the riderless horse entered Into a tug of war with the animal on the other end of the rope, something that the crowd liked. A feature today as yesterday was the grand mounted parade of cowboys and Indians, headed by governor Withy combe riding Raley and Livermore's Kentucky thoroughbred and mounted on the prize saddle, led by Jinks Tay lor, bearing the American flag, who were followed by the pennant bearers, directors and mounted cowboy band. The hundreds of enwrroys and cowgirls paraded around the track and just as they entered the arena, the Indians, in their brilliant trappings, followed. and so many were there In line that their purade completely encircled the arena. I Sammy Garrel made a pretty I catch but had difficulty In making the bust. He) finally accomplished It and made his time a little more thunj one minute. . Dan Clark, who used to be a cow- boy In Wyoming, but who now han-j dies the livestock end of the O.-W. K & N., got his first rope on one horn, only and had to cast again. His sec ond was more successful. His horse save a pretty exhibition of holding the steer after It was thrown. Clark's, time was 1.17. Charley Johnson tnrew his steer but in doing so broke its horn and when he continued In his efforts to. turn it over, was hooted by the crowd, Group of Officials Mukc lVmlUton Their Headquarters During Ttim Days of Round.

Gen Maunoury, who at the outset or the war com manded the French Third army, and later succeeded the late Gen. Galllenl as military governor of Paris after the latter's appointment as minister o' war, has become completely blind as a result of a wound received dur ing a visit to the first line trenches on the Alsne. It was General Maunory's army which, sent out from Paris In taxlcahs by General Galllenl at the critical mo ment, of the Battle or the -Marne, turned the tide and, striking Gen von Kluck's flank, drove back the Ger mans across the Alsne.
