WHAT THEY DO.
And how They do .it-oAC Track men
at Work Brilliant Season Ahead.


On sunny afternoons now, when
such things are. O.AC athletic field
is lively spot. Visitors, athletes
students and others are there in
numbers sufficient for a Sunday
School picnic if the spirit and vict-
uals were only there On the field.
the pole vault with its graceful
swing, the high jump, the broad
Jump, the sprints. the weights and
other forms of athletic sport are in
evidence. with muscular young
chaps, all busy at their work. The
preparations are on. first for the
local tryout to take place on the
field this afternoon, second for GO
ing to Portland the latter part of
next week to take part in the wide
ly heralded Columbia University
meet. third for the class meet and
final tryout to take place on OAC
field two weeks from today, and
finally for the various meets of the
season in which OAC young men
will go against all northwest teams.
It is settled fact now that OAC
will this year turn out the best
track team in her history. The
various events are more widely and
better manned than ever before. In
the sprints, Williams, the crack
sprinter of last year is breaking his
former records with ease. Smith
son, a new man with good material
speed is expected to show to an
advantage in the sprints, as soon as
the art of starting is acquired.
Coates, the crack Albany College
hurdler and jumper. of last year
is in good form and is sure to be a
first place man against all corners
in the three latter events. With
him in the hurdles, is Swami, who
is doing excellent work there as
well as in the high jump. and is far
better than ever in the pole vault.
Moores, sprinter, hurdler and jump
er of last year is doing fine work
in the broad and high jump, and is
sure to show up well in the place
winning. Cooper is one of the new
men for whom there is believed to
be mnch of the possible. A quart
er on heavy track in his first trial
at sixty seconds is one of his ex-
p1oits that shows fine athletic ma
terial. In the weights. Root is put
ting the shot IS feet, while Abra-
ham, Jackson and other oldtimers
are breaking all their former rec
ords. Of men, new and old, in the
various other events there are doz-
ems, many of whom, impossible to
mention here, will win places on the
team.
In the Columbia meet at Port
land next week, there will be no
100 yard dash, because the track is
not long enough for a straightaway.
For the same reason the high and
low hurdles will be but fifty yards
each. Neither will there be a mile
run, but instead there will be a re-
lay. The meet is not inter-col-
legiate, and OAC men will have
to go against club, college and all
other kinds of athletes. The OAC
track is now in good condition.

AS TO JUDGE HAMILTON.


A deserved tribute to a worthy
official was resolution adopted by
unanimous vote of the delegates at
Saturdays democratic convention.
The resolution is as follow:
Whereas, the able and economical adj
ministration of the Office of circuit Judge
for the past six years by James W. Ham
ilton has saved large sums of money to
taxpayers BY shortening terms OF court,
and
whereas, his brilliant record as jur-
ist is made manifest by the extraordin-
: arily large per cent of afirmatiens of his
decisions by the Supreme Court of the
State of Oregon; therefore, be it
Resolved, that this convention make
this public expression ofits confidence in
Judge Hamilton, and comnends him to
the people of the district for his prompt
able and extraordinary satisfactory ad-
ministration of this pon-partlsan office.
When Judge Hamilton went on
the bench in the second district six
years ago, delays, dalliance, and
long drawn-out court terms were
the order of the day. A term of a
week, 10 days, or even more was
not infrequent. Attorneys were oft
en- behind time in presenting cases,
and Jurors remember we'll that fire.
quent recesses had to be taken in
order to give lawyers time to pre-
pare papers for presentation to the
court. The consequence was that
30 jurors at an expense of $50 per
day were frequently held in attend
ance for several days on account of
these delays.
With Judge Hamilton, however
there came change. Order took
the place of disorder, and court
business began to be despatched
with promptness and regularity. A
preliminary term was instituted for
clearing away rubbish. and to get
jury cases ready for trial. A court
session of one or two days, has
since sufhced for the administration
of justice in Benton county. The
immense saving that has resulted
to taxpayers is ample reason for
Judge Hamilton to be renominated
and reelected to this non partisan
Office.
When to this consideration, there
Is added the fact that the supreme
court has almost uniformly affirmed
his decisions, making a per cent of
affirmations extraordinarily large
and presenting for Judge Hamilton
a most brilliant record as a jurist,
his re election to the position be-
comes paramount to all partisan or
other considerations. He is judge
in that true and typical sense,
wherein justice ever prevails, and
law is interpreted with fine dis
elimination, where there is perfect
defense of the rights of the indi-
vidual, and the public veal contin-
uously conserved.
