It took more than training and muscle to keep Flying Cloud, Melika and the other half dozen Indians in the race. Fighting qourage and strong hearts carried these boys and men toward their goal over 480 weary miles of road. When their feet were blistered and muscles weary they kept“on com ing, spurred forward by the desire to win. They gave us a great race, wonderfully run. The whole country has watched progress of the marathon from San Francisco to Grants Pass. News services have been carrying daily stories on their positions and last night, when the race ended, the local telegraph office was swamped by press cor respondents, each trying his best to get a little time on his rival. It was undoubtedly one of the biggest events that has transpired in Grants Pass in recent •«<>« There was human interest in that race. Imagine four thousand people lining the street of Grants Pass waiting for hours for Mad Bull to come into the city. These people knew that he would win but they wanted to see him finish and cheer him for the spirit he has shown. And this morning when Flying Cloud came to town, people lined the road and streets to see him and cheer him. He wasn’t first but he also displayed the spirit for which his an cestors were famed, and to the veteran Melika, whose indomitable spirit kept him going in spite of his 55 years goes the most profound respect. ___ It has been a wonderful thing, this marathon. It is to be made an -annual international event and Grants Pass must begin at once laying plans for the coming year. To this city undoubtedly goes much of the -credit for the amym» nf the race, but it took' real runners to make it the success and in Mad Bull, Flying Cloud, Melika and the others we have the qualities which make clean sports so popular. Another year will see the Redwood Highway Indian marathon one of the leading sport events of the sea son.—Grants Pass Courier. Let Creditor Worry I f some fellow who owed you money were spend ing huge sums in riotous living yon would naturally be somewhat concerned about the money he owed yon. If you were compelled by circumstances to match his expenditures yon would be still more con cerned at his antics. That is about the position of yonr Uncle Samuel in connection with naval expenditures by debtor na tions. As a matter of fact it is American money that builds not only American ships but in some cases foreign war vessels. It is a peculiar fact, however, that the countries least able to spend hugh sums upon their warships have declined to enter the present conference. France and Italy, who profess to be unable to pay their internatioanl debts refuse to take any steps to ward reducing naval expenditures other than those already in force. And here again nations are mnch like indi viduals—it is those who can least afford it who spend their means the most extravagantly.
