AMERICAN ATHLETES COMPETE.
VIII Race In Spite of Dispute Between
A. A. A. and Gaelic 4, A.

Dublin, July S1.-Lawson Robert
son, the American sprintef, announced
to-day that the American athletes feel,
in spite Of the instructions OF the
Irish American Athletic club OF New
York, that they are In honor bound
to compete as agreed In the interna-
tional athletic meet tomorrow, and
consequently the full team will ap-
pear.
The members Of the Irish-Amer-
lean Athletic club, however, will not
race as representatives Of that club
but as independent American athletes.
It is explained that when the contest
was arranged the Americans knew
nothing Of the dispute between the
Amateur Athletic association and, the
Gaelic Athletic association, which
has declared the meet tomorrow IL
legal.

SEATTLE NEWS ITEM S

The King County Republican Club,
at a meeting held in Seattle recently,
was expected to indorse U. S. Senator
Piles and pledge itself to aid in his re-
election two years hence. The meet
ing adjourned without taking action,
and it is well known here that the ar
dent friends of Senator Piles were
much disappointed. There is no &C.
casion for concealing the fact that there
is opposition to Senator Piles in King
county. Whether it will continue to
grow, or die bornin" is yet to be
determined. Mr.. Piles real friends
admit that he must fight if he wishes
to continue to be Senator. They do
not deny that the appointment OF
George F. Russell as postmaster to sue
coed George Stewart has stirred up OPP
position from three sources. First,
the politicians opposed to Mr.. Russell,
as we'll as the politicians who supported
him and helped make him county treas
urer; second, the friends Of Postmaster
Stewart, who were indignant at his re-
moval by President Roosevelt; and,
third, the people who voted for Russell
for treasurer and who felt that he
should have qualified for that Office
and served out his term. 1t is not to
be inferred that all the people who
voted for Russell for treasurer received
the announcement Of his appointment
with disapproval; still, many thought
that he should not have accepted the
postmastership when he had just beer
elected treasurer.
Senator Piles friends, Of course
laugh at the idea of his being defeated
claiming that when the time comes
King county will be unit in support
ing him for Senator in order to proven
Pierce county from capturing the i'm
portant Office.

Wenatchee Valley Apples in Old England

Several weeks ago H. Mustell sent
through the Apple Growers Associa-
ton some choice specimens of Cash
mere apples to England, and last week
he was in receipt of a letter from a
friend telling Of the great success that
they had scored in his native country.
The apples were sent from here to
Liverpool and have been re-shipped to
several places and put on exhibition.
The following clipping appeared re-
Gently in the London Times:
"A remarkably fine show Of Ameri-
can apples attracted attention to the
stall of Messrs. Poupart, in Covent
Garden yesterday. The apples are en-
tirely new to this country, being the
first consignment from the Wenatchee
Fruit Growers Association, Cashmere
Washington, U. S. A. They are of al
colors, deep red, pale yellow, green anc
golden, and have been pronounced b.
experts to be the finest ever shown il

standpoint, it is conceded that as a
constitutional lawyer he ranks with the
best on the Pacific coast; hence the
interview published with him in the
Post-Intelligencer one day this week in
which he discussed the present COVER
norship trouble in this state was read
with greatest interest. Judge Turner
said that in the absence OF Governor
elect Cosgrove, Governor Mead will
continue to hold office; Mr.. Cosgrove
may return at any time, qualify and
take up his executive duties; he cannot
qualify outside the state. Only in case
Of Mr.. CosgTove returning, qualifying
and later dying can Lieut. Governor
elect Hay possibly become governor.
There is no good argument in favor of
Lieut.. Governor Coon becoming gov
ernor. This is in substance Judge
Tuners opinion and it is generally
accepted by the legal fraternity as be-
ing absolutely sound.
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1908-12-25

particularly well adapted to the
growth OF sand pine which is even now
replacing the less valuable species, and
with protection from fire almost the
entire area will in time undoubtedly
be covered with dense stand Of this
species. The long-leaf pine, a much
more valuable commercial tree than
the sand pine, appears rather sparsely
on this Forest and is confined princip-
ally to the lower fat lands along the
streams on the borders of the Forest.
In addition to the pines and scrub
growths, bald cypress, cabbage palm
etto and tupelo gum, gradually chang
ing to water oak, ash, elm, magnolia,
hickory and maple are found bordering
the numerous ponds and lakes which
are scattered abundantly throughout
the confines of this Forest.
Fire has played very important
part in bringing about the present
poorly forested condition of the Ocala,
as year after year large fires have burned
uninteruptedly over this tract, killing
all vegetation and consuming the
humus of the soil. Naturally protected
portions which have not been subject
to the flames, prove positively however,
that the soil will rapidly respond to a
little care taking and that the proven
ton Of fires would eventually mean the
reforestation Of practically the entire
area.
No sawmill operations have been
conducted on the area included in the
Ocala National Forest. Turpentining
by boxing is carried on over contiguous
areas and through the careless and
antiquated methods used the future
pine crop Of the adjoining region is
greatly jeopardized. The soil is Of
little value for agricultural purposes
and about the only crop which can be
produced that will be of lasting value is
sand pine, and with proper care and
attention there should in time be
valuable forest of this species.
The new Dakota National Forest
consists of 14,080 acres in the Bad
Lands region. 1t is located in Billings
county and lies an equal distance be-
tween the Northern Pacific railroad on
the north and the Chicago, Milwaukee
and St. Paul on the south. Its creation
is important for it means that an exper-
mental field for forest planting has
been secured in North Dakota, the
least forested state in the Union, having
only one per cent. of tree growth. The
Forest Service expects to establish for
est nurseries with the hope that in time
to come the area may be reforested by
artificial means. This feature is expec-
ted to prove a very good object lesson
to the settlers, who it is hoped will
plant windbreaks around their farms.

Representative Ole Hanson, who is
leading the fight for the passage of an
anti-race track gambling bill, is receiv-
ing letters daily from senators and
representatives, pledging their support
to the measure. 1t is by no means
certain, however, that the bill will have
a walk-over. Mr.. Hanson realizes this,
and declares he will keep up the fight
until he has accomplished his work. 1t
is by no means certain that a majority
Of the people Of King county are op-
posed to the Meadows, the popular race
track resort situated south of the city.
The people Of King county demand Of
their representatives and senators a
local option bill, but they are not insist
ing that they support the Hanson bill.
In all probability when the voting on
the measure commences at the state
capitol the King county delegation will
be divided on the question. The Ex-
position management is taking no hand
either way in the fight. If it were left
to them the chances are they would
want the Meadows to continue running
next summer. Seattle is naturally
interested in bringing to her doors as
many visitors as possible next summer;
it is undoubtedly true that the races,
even in ordinary years, are responsible
for the presence of several thousand
people from outside points. The races
during the Exposition season would
bring many more. The business men
are not in sympathy with the movement
to put the track out OF business. The
racing season means thousands of extra
dollars to them. These few facts are
cited solely for the purpose of showing
that sentiment is more or less divided
on the question, and that the path
which Representative Hanson must
follow in order to pass his bill is not
strewn entirely with roses.
