Number Of Entries in Regatta
Events This Year viii Be Greater
Than ever Before.
COLLEGE RACE IS PLANNED
Crews From Berkeley. STAN

sity to Take Part in Cham.
piOnship Match.

Chairman Mcbride of the regattS
committee has returned from Portland
where he has been working for the
carnival While in the metropolis Mr.
Mcbride secured a 500 contribution
to the fund from Henry weinhard, the
brewer, who stipulated that SIS should
go to the Fourth of July fund and the
balance to the regatta fund.
'T find that the oarsmen and yachts
men of Portland are quite as enthus-
iastic this year over the regatta as
they have previously been." said Chair
man Mcbride yesterday Portland
win be literally represented in the
sailing and rowing events this year,
and already the sportsmen Of that city
are making preparations for the car
uivaL
while in Portland talked with
Mr.. Arnold of Arnold Bros. showmen,
and. although there have been no def
mite arrangements thus far, am sat
isfied we will have an excellent street
show here in August. We expect to
close up this matter within short
time.
"The hose team of Oregon City is
anxious to participate in the regatta
Tournament, and there will be enough
entries to make the event successful
We have decided to have float in the
Fourth of July parade at Portland as
an advertisement for the regatta" J
Chairman Mcbride states that the
rowing events will be quite interesting
this year. So far as the Californians
are concerned, they will be glad to
come north, but the committee is anx-
ious that they bring shells instead of
barges.
"All Of the northern crews use
Shells" said Mr.. Mcbride. "and the
californians should bring shells in or
der to make the competition success
full, When they come with barges, they
must compete with each other, and
the events are therefore not so inter
esting as where the Californians try
conclusions with the oarsmen of the
north. We shall endeavor to impress
this upon them.
'We have not yet heard from the
oarsmen Of Victoria and Vancouver,
B. c., but will receive a detailed report
when Charles v. Brown returns to !
the city. Mr.. Brown is consulting with |
the British Columbians, and doubtless &
crews will be entered from each Of 6
the cities to the north. {
I'VE are now arranging for what I
should be one Of the very best rowing c
races ever pulled off on the coast. 1t 8
Is the intention to bring together crews {
the University Of Cali j
fornia, Stanford university and the r
University Of Washington. We will I
no doubt get those crews together for b
the intercollegiate coast championship.
An event of the kind will attract wide v
spread attention and add to the inter- t
st Of the carnival. We hope to be r
lble to make definite announcement v

LAST WEEK at st. Louis, before the National Editorial Society
Colonel Henry Watterson gave his idea II brIet OF what should
constitute the material for the editorial columns OF a newspaper.

The editorial page is valuable i'll the degree that 1t aids the
reader to digest the news. 1t should either be reformed or aban-
newspaper, it is becoming, if has not already become, a rather
useless appendage-not even ornamental. DisInterestedneSs being
the SOIL, good humor is the solar system of the editorial page,
which should he held subject to these precepts:
g" Write of a man nothing YOU would not say to his face, and
might not say in the hearing of decent people.
avoid equally intimatiOn and intimidation making no Sug-
sestion you ae not prepared to reduce to assertion and to sus-
tain with proof
The leading article being the rationale of the most important
and interesting piece of the days news should have a beginning,
a middle and an end; should be concise and inGsive, seeking to
assist the reader in his effort to comprehend the situation.
Satire should keep within the bounds OF the probable; wit
under the restraint of sense, and invective-shorn of adjective and
adverb, and stripped to the waist-should strike out from the
shoulder to hit only above the belt

to laurel the graves of our dead The rich and poor alike will

age to their memory. The custom is Il beautiful one and reflects
credit upon the country of its birth.
