grafters, purchasers of law, and the
debauched find their education and

hordos go forth to prey upon society
The only wonder is that the people
have stood this menace to our civil
zation as long as they have.
While 1t is not universally So it Is
too often the case that the saloon
fosters and promotes the social evil.
The public sentiment Is greatly out
ragged at the intimate relationship be-
tween the saloon and the dsorderly
house. The public is very angry be-
cause so many drinking places are
gambling hels
Another thing that has stirred tho
public against the liquor traffic has
been the relationship between the
politician and the saloon No feature
of American public life is so abomin
able and discouraging as this open
and notorious partnership of the
liquor traffic with politicians of all
parties In the business Of crime. II ia

great cities of the country are ruled

Giving round figures for the pur-
poses of easy comparison, $40 600 poo-
pie went back to Europe from Atlantic
ports In the year 1906. while 5G0,0o0
went back in the year 1907. An even
moro significant comparison is to be
found by taking the last three months
of the two calendar years. In OctO-
Der. November and December of 1906,
1gl.OOO storage passengers returned
to Europe, while PEA 900 returned In
the cores onding months of 1907.
Stn more interesting, perhaps. are
the figures for the opening weeks Of
the present year as compared with
those Of last year We have obtain
Cd statistics for the ton opcninR
weeks, including January, February

these weeks, to give the exact figures

the arrivals from Europe were 44,712,

Europe were 1870, We are. of

High Hurdles Secure

With such high hurdlers on the
American team as Shaw or Dartmouth,
Smithson of the Multnomah Athletic
club and Garrels of the Chicago Ath-
letic club, all three places seem secure,
unless some wonder comes out of the
woods over there. The best old-world
timbertopper seems to be *. Powell
of Cambridge university, and is cred
tied with a record of ID 10 seconds,
but Shaws style of hurdling should
prove safer over the English obstacles
In the 1600-meter relay race America
has a good fighting chance and the out
come depends on how Sheppard ana
Taylor compare with Halswell and
Just. If the middle-distance men from
here ara able to hold safe the Saxons,
the sprinters should be able to do their
part, and victory should go to the
Stars and Stripes. The three-mile race
! is a certainty for the BrltiSherS, with
Sweden a good second and America
and France fighting it out for third.
The two walking events can be
dealt with quite easily, and with such
star heel and toe experts and cham
pions as Larner, Thompson, Youmans
and Carter available, England will
have the softest kind OF a job to WIN
all three places.
The Marathon race of twenty-five
miles, from the royal palace at Wins
dor to the stadium, is by far the most
important event on the program. 1t
is the one race requiring stamina and
speed above all others. To predict
| the result is not an easy task, for there
10 such a broad field for accident. But
fine thing not to be forgotten is that
the Englishmen have the advantage.
for every man who at all aspires to be
starter already has been over the
course. Several have shown good time,
the best being made by Duncan, who
won the big trial given the Polytech-
PIC ETarriers, and his performance was
made more impressive by the fact that
Inc Saturday previous he won the ma

LlttIe Hope in FIve-MIIe

What America will get out of the
five-mile event is a little b. tier than
a forlorn hope. If Bellars OF the New
York Athletic club, the topnotch Yam
kee selection, expects to be anywhere
near the leaders at the finish, he will
have to show more than one minute
faster than his tryout. His time here
was 26 minutes and A seconds, rather
poor going when compared with the
English tryout of Weight in rs min
utes 26 rs seconds. 1t is difficult to
figure where Eissele of the New York
Athletic club, Bonhag of the Irish
American Athletic club, and Trube
of Cornell will be when the winner
hits the finish line.
So far as can be judged now, the
battle for first place should lie between
Duncan, the English four and ten
mile champion, and John Svanberg,
the Swedish champion. The pair met
twice last year, the distances being
four and i've miles, and on both oc-.
casions the Swede won. The time of
the five miles was "a minutes and
AZ 3-5 seconds.

he would have a fair chance at the
event. But there is a good percentage
to go by that the Irish-American Attn
letio club runner viii not clock as last
time abroad as at home.
The foremost English entry in the
race will be II. Just of Cambridge uni
Versity, and he will have as a second
string Fairbairn Crawford of Dublin
university. Just is the present English
and Irish champion. On a cold, raw
day last March and on a soggy track
Just ran the half mile IL l: 90 40, the
event being the annual varsity match
between oxford and Cambridge, and a
thing to be remembered was that the
Cantab had no one to push him, nor
was he pulled or striding badly when
he crossed the finish line.
OF the other American selection Coe
of Michigan and Jones of Pennsylvania
seem the most reliable. Paul Pilgrim,
who did such fine work two years ago
at Athens, may find his form at the
les by doing the unexpected. Very
likely ]. d. Lightbody will devote his
attention to the long distance rons.
Hellstrom Is Formidable
The best of the continental delegation
will be Kristian Hellstrom holder of
the Swedish record for the 500, 500 and
luuu lueleTSs ana IL is now reported Tndt
he is good for /: 56 for the middle dis
lance. He has been a resident of Eng
land for the lsat year or so and will
have the same advantage over our men
as will the Englishman. France will
be represented by II. Deloge, who COW
cred the distance in 1853 1-5 last year,
and 1t is said that he is much faster
this season.
The second string for the French
viii be Pouillot, nearly as good as
Deloge. Runge, the German cham
pion, is fifth of a second slower than
the Frenchman on paper. but the rat
ing may be reversed when they meet
G. Delarge, the Belgian champion, is
rather slow for this event, his time in
last years championship meet being 2
minutes 25 2-5 seconds.
The distance was not run at the
track and field meet last
year, but B. Hollies won the half mile
In the slow time of minutes and 9
seconds. There is no Russian or Fin
nish record for the 500 meters, but
w. Lundstrom, a Finlander, did 1000
meters in minutes 40 AS seconds, |
which is not very bad, looking at the
events from an unbiased standpoint
America has only a chance for a place,
and should Sheppard come in ahead of
Just, it will be the deed of his life.
Los Angeles herald., 1908-07-06
HaIstead In 1900 Meters

Americas strongest hope in the 1900
meters will be Halstead of Cornell, for
his race in the tryouts was conclusive
evidence that here is a distance man
of first water. The time made by him
OF minutes and 1-5 second, beats all
records on this side of the water, but
if the Englishmen are true to their
traditions, the figures will not cut
much ice in the stadium.
In the English tryouts H. A. Wilson
of the Hallamshire Harriers beat this
record of Halstead's by two-fifths of
a second, and he is not even classed
among the second raters on his own
soil. The man to keep an eye on for
this event is G. Butterfield of the Oar
lington Harriers, the present English
mile champion and a man with a rec
ord of minutes IS rs seconds for the
mile. This rate of travelling would
mean something like minutes and So
seconds for the 1900 meters, and per-
haps, when Butterfield gauges his race
for that exact distance, he will lower
the record to minutes and 81 seconds.
The record down for L. Steuderi the
Russian champion, is minutes "a 40
seconds, and the Finnish record is
minutes and % seconds.
South Africa will have a man in
the race named c. Hefferon, who, at
the very best, hardly will prove dan
gerous, as he has done only the mile
in minutes IS AS seconds. With re-
gard TO the placing of Lightbody of
Chicago, Dull and Rowe of Michigan
and Sullivan of the Irish-American
Athletic club the other American Sc
lections in this event, it is difficult to
say what they will do.
Lightbody never has been headed
for the distance, a fact which adds
greatly to his credit, though he GER
tainly never met any man of the But
terrified caliber during his career. Dull
and Rowe are good men and well with
in the 4:3O class for the mile, but Sui
livan in all probability will find the
English atmosphere a little too much
for him
