there Is eyer-present love to sub- '

is a feeling of resentment and In
justice, but it is lost In. ; the
knowledge of yonr devotion and
constancy and the sincere appro- -elation
of all you are doing for i
us. A little sadness and wistful':
longing for your. presence at this

Q OME over-zealous supporters of tho League of Na-

Why so sensitive? Opposition is to bo expocted. Tho
more discussion there is, the better.
Every social, moral and political reform has been
opposed, opposed by many smccro .and earnest citizens,

There was considerable .opposition to the Christiau
religion, but that faith has endured pretty well and. lias
considorablo force today. ; There wasv intense opposition
to i.ue uousuiuiion ana yot as immci weoster stud re
garding Massachusetts, ''There she isr still standing after
years or rutmess tyranny; under tho constitution of the
United btatos and still happy m her tyranny."
It is foolish to resent sincere criticism of the League
Criticism has already resulted in iinnorhmt amendments
Those advocates, who fear, the loague will fall under such
attacKs. tail to grasp the. essential issues.
In tact "as has been previously brought but the criti
cisms ot tne Jeague ot .Nations today are almost identical
with those against the Constitution 130 rears aco. . '
y The League is to embroil this -country in European
contentions. So was tho Constitution," to 'embroil South
Carolina in uie troubles ot. Massachusetts.
Ihe League is. luicenstitutional. : So 'said General
JLliompson ot the Constitution. " : W i : '
'.'; fceuator Borah declared he wouldnot support the
League if it was presented by the "Savior of Mankind."

The-fears the opDonents, of the -Lea-Biie of NntinnW

History of Oregon Kace Horses
By W. H. Gocher.
Fifty years have elapsed since the
first 2:30 trotter was foaled in Ore
gon and sixty since the state was ad
mitted to the union. When the New
England pioneers appeared in - the
territory,- after Marcus Whitman
made his winter ride across the con
tinent to convince President : Tyler
that the northern boundary ot the
territory from which , Washington
and Idaho were subsequently set off
should be the forty-ninth paralled in,
stead of the north bank of the Co
lumbia river, they brought a few
Morgan Btallions with them. Of these
the names of. Vermont and Oregon
Pathfinder have found a place in turf
history. They were mated with the
native stock, of which there was an
ample supply even in 1805, when
Lewis and 'Clark after locating the
head waters ot the Missouri followed
the course of the Columbia to the
Pacific.
Vermont got' several trotters in
Oregon, Ella Lewis, 2:27, being the
first. .She was foaled In 186 K and
did the most of her racing in Califor
nia, where she afterwards produced
the pacer Saladin, 2:05. Mike, a
son of Vermont, was also the first
sire of a 2:30 performer foaled In
the state. He. got the trotter Barney
that made a wagon record of 2:25)4
at Oakland, Cal., in 1878. while he
also sired the Grldloy Mare, which
when mated with Ophlr. a son of
Shenandoah, produced Bob, the dam
of KlamatH, 2:'07iW, the fastest trot
ter bred in Oregon. 1 Klamath was
got by Morookus, a son of Altamont.
Kaymond raced him on the eastern
tracks in 1896, when out of sixteen
races he won eight firsts, six seconds.
and two thirds from such horses as
,Hhmlln' .Ightingnle, Kentucky
Union, Jack, Lesa Wilkes, and Wil
Ham Penn. Klamath also appeared
again in 1896 but after winning at
Cleveland and making his record at
Columbus, he trained off.
Vermont was bred in the , state
atter which he was named, and ar
rived in Oregon by way of San Fran-
Cisco, while Oregon Pathfinder was.a
New Hampshire product and got a
few -trotters before Pat Smith took
him. across the continent. He was
by Morrill, the grandsire of Fear
naught, and left considerable good
stock in the territory, where for a
time he divided the honors with MII
liman's Bellfounder. '

uted to San Marino's being left alone.
But external reasons were not suffi
cient there was' an internal cause
which -existed in its institutions oni
its morality. . :
"In the life of the republia today
the influence. of the Dalmatian saint
is strongly reflected. For a country
to maintain the characteristics of its
primitive founcdr is a social phenom
enon of which possibly San Marion
alone can boast.
"During tho davs of Christian per.
Neeutlons, in tho middle of tho foui'lh
eeiiturv, Marino and lam, two stone
cutters of Arbo, Dalmatin, crossed'
tho Adriatic and camo to Kimini.
Their roiison, siivs truilition, was to
aid Christians, condemned bv mman
rulers, to reconstruct the walls of
that city, i
"The walls of liimiui having been
finished, l.co and .Marino looked
lougilv upon the solitmlu of the two
muuntaius, As the hermits of the
Thchiud, who l'hiiirishcd at this same
period, ,thcv sought pence and soli
tude in Ih oho imiicnutiablu heights.
Hewing a bed from the, ruck and cul
tivating: a littlo garden, Marino found
all his material wants supplied. This
rough bed mid site of tho garden lire
pointed out tuuluy Jiv reverent pens,

"From neighboring fields ami mix

and the Christian faith upon the two

their wnnta were easily satisfied.
Soon two small villages or colonics
sprang up about the little churches,
taking the names of tho two apostles.
Tho inflmiico of Kan I -co has been
wiped out bv tho centuries, while that
of San Marino exists todav. .
"Marino's desire waH to found a
free society, based upon liberty, jus
tice, simplicity, charity, virtue and,
above all, a love of peace. When tho
good man camo to dio he called his
followers about him and bunuonthed
to them his mountain, 'free from ev

was that thov never seek enlargement
ot territory bv violent means. War,
though n painful necessity for those
acting in self defense, was an un
panlonublo crime in those who caus
ed it. llcgging his followers to rc
