CAPITAL CITY HAS ONE OF THE
BEST AUTO RACE TRACKS
IN THE COUNTRY.
Prominent Drivers, in a Trial Spin.
Predict That Records Will Be
Broken During the Races to Be
Held Next Month.

Much has been written bv the
newspapers Of Atlanta about the great
automobile race track recently con-
structed in that city: II has beep
ciassed as the fastest in the world.
one OF the best constructed and in
every way one of the best That the
Atlanta newspapers have not been
eXaggerating was best evidenced when
an official trial was made by some
celebrated drivers on Saturday aft.
ernoon, in the presence of newspaper
and railroad men from all sections
of the state and five thousand Atlanta
people who ventured out to see the
racing machines christen the new
track.
1t is impossible to describe this
great track of two miles, which cost
the Atlanta Automobile association
practically 100000 1t is one of the
few tracks in the country where the
spectator can watch the entire race.
1t is so constructed that person
in the grand stand can follow the
flying autos all the way around the
course, thus making the races all the
more interesting
In the trials Saturday afternoon two
of The best known drivers in the
country tested the track and announc-
ed it TO he one of the best they had
ever seen Barney Oldfeld and George
Ro' ertsou eneeded around it al the

Just to show the visitors that speed

Ard incidentally he lowered his In
dianapolis record by unofficial time,
by nineteen seconds. ~
Atlanta never goes into anvthinq
by halves. She is going to excel eff
forts made by other cities or fail.
That the automobile races there next
month will be the most successful
ever held in the south there is no
doubt. and people from all sections
of the south will be present. Ade-
quate accommodations have been pro-
yided for all with mammoth grand
stand and bleachers, with places for
those who attend in automobiles, etc.
No matter how large the crowd may
be Atlanta has prepared to take care
of it, not only at the races. but at
the hotel and boarding houses in the
city.
Some Of The best known drivers in
the auto racing business will enter
the Atlanta races men who have
the nerve to go after new records,
and on a track that is said 10 be
one of the fastest in existence. some
new records may be expected
People all over Georgia are going
to join in to help make the event a
success. They have not been asked
to subscribe to stock or anything of
the like, but have been invited to
come up and witness some of the
best automobile races ever held in
this country, and the chances are
that thousands of Georgians will be

THIS is LAST WEEK
EXPECTED that MANY VOTERS
WILL QUALIFY FOR CITY
ELECTION.

eng the last week that the
stration books win be oper
approaching municipal cleo
and only a small number Ct
having qualified during the
hc weeks that the books have been
agsn, it is expected that Clerk Rus
will see the usual rush this
week always the case during the last
:yeral days that the books are open.
Up TO the close of the third week
only BAG voters had qualified, an UNI
usually small number, but since early
last week each day has shown large
increase over the preceding one,
therefore il is expected that more
voters will qualify before the books
finally close than have registered dur
ing the entire time that they have
been open.
Third Leads.
That the contest between Aldermen
Ludwig and Taylor is to be the most
interesting is demonstrated by the
large number of voters who
have registered from their ward, the
third, which now leads the other
three wards by a good majority, al
most doubling them. From this vard
100 have registered, 85 from the first
81 from the second and only 81 rom
the fourth.

ASSESSOR STRAIN
A FISHING GOES

C. P. Strain. county assessor and
city councilman, can today If he so
desires. make a valuable addition to
the Baron Munchausen tales with an
experience which has the paradox
cal quality of being a true fish story.
For yesterday he landed the lagest
salmon trout that ever wagged a fin,
and that, too, without even spreading
net or casting a Turing fly.
It happened in this wise: Yester-
day morning when the church bells
were Ginning their weekly invitation,
the adjuster of taxes, feeling the
need of a respite from his world of
worries and a rest after his weeks
labors, took his encased fishing rod
from the wall and accompanied by
his young son, set forth in quest of
the finny game. Walking leisurely
along the railroad track parallel with
Byers' ditch, he heard ripple and
then a churning in the waters below.
Glancing down he was amazed to see
monster fish making its way over
shallow rifle. Immediately all his
primordial instincts, the heritage of
generations long fosslized, leaped
from their dormant state into active
control Forgetting the dignity, ac-
quired by years of official service,
the councilman assessor threw aside
his sporting pole, and seizing prim-
tive weapon, huge boulder darted
in pursuit of his speckled prey. Rock
after rock was hurled at the fugitive
fish with the force of the avenglng
thunderbolts of Jupiter, but without
the accuracy of those all-destroying
missiles. The fish darted up and down
the stream, doubled, turned and hid
in dark recesses, but Mr.. Strain, un-
remitting and remorseless, followed
the doublings and turnings and his
eye, practiced in political vigil, sought
out the hiding places of his quarry.
At last the persistence Of our pisca-
torial hero was rewarded. One Of the
rocks discharged with the force of a
catapult had the effect of dynamite,
the conclusion blowing the youthful
salmon high upon the bank, where
it lay gasping out It's young life.
Disregarding the mire and slime,
the city father plunged down the
steep bank, inserted his fingers under
the gills of the expiring prize and in
triumph and elation, held 1t up, to
the view Of the onlookers who had
been attracted to the scene by his
strange antics. The fish was beau
tful salmon trout, measuring over
two feet in length, a prince of the
denizens of the water, and the sports
man-dignitary is vastly pleased with
his achievement in ipscicapture.

Swaggart Takes Prizes.

Ben F. Swaggart, the stockman,
returned Saturday from Walla Walla
where he had been to attend the fu-
neral of his daughter, Mrs. Gordon
Menzies. While in the city he called
at the East Oregonian office and ex-
pressed his views regarding the pro-
motion of the Umatilla-Morrow fair.
Mr.. Swaggart is much interested in
the success of the annual event and
has always been one of the principal
stock exhibitors. Recently he won
four blue ribbons and the sweepstake
on his jacks and mules at the Walla
Walla fair, and as result Of his ex-
hibition at the two fairs he has placed
S4SOO worth of stock. He has several
ideas and suggestions for the advance
ment of the local fair and will shortly
outline his plans for publication.

Mrs. Rounds Improving.

Friends of Mrs. F. P. Rounds will
be glad to know that she is greatly
improved in health since going to
Hot Springs, Arkansas and that she
seems to be on the road to complete
recovery. The good news was brought
back this morning by Hr Rounds,
who has just rturned from a visit
of four weeks with his wife. He says
that whereas she had not been out
of their yard here in Pendleton for
more than a year prior to her going
east, that the day before he statred
on his return home she made the as
cent of Government mountain with
him in As minutes, which is consid-
cred a remarkable climb. She will
probably remain at the springs until
after the first Of the year, possibly
longer.

GOOD ROADS AND
MORE OF THEM
FOR BETTER
HIGHWAYS STARTS CAMPAIGN
Vice President Appointed For Each
Precinct-Effort Will Be Made to
Enroll Each Taxpayer and Citizen
of the COunty-Series of Rousing
Meetings Planned.

That the gospel of good roads and
the campaign for better highways is
to be carried into every corner of
Umatilla county was indicated at an
enthusiastic meeting of the county as
sociation, held here Saturday after
noon. The first move is to be sys-
tematic effort to enroll in the men,
bership of the association every citi-
zen and taxpayer in the county. With
that object in view a vice president
is to be named for each precinct.
This vice-president will not only be
expected to preach good roads," up
on each and every occasion, but he
will also be expected to gather every
one in his neighborhood into the fold
or the association. Then just as
rapidly as a membership is secured
in each precinct, a series of rousing
meetings will be held in each place.
The entire county association will be
expected to participate in each Of
these meetings and it is anticipated
that such an amount of good roads
enthusiasm will be engendered there
by that the movement will sweep
broadcast throughout the county. 1t
Is believed by the promoters that
once the proper amount of spirit and
enthusiasm is engendered into the
people of the county that the rest
will be easy and that no difficulty
will be encountered in the effort to
secure permanent highways in every
direction.

UMAT|LLA BRAVES
DEFEAT ACADEMIES
INDIANS WIN BY
SCORE OF TO o
Both Teams Play Very Ragged Ball
But Academy Team Is Outclassed
Redskins Victorious by Reason
Of Individual Stars Local Boys
Are Too Confident.

In ragged but interesting exhibi-
ton of football the Pendleton acad-
emy eleven went down to defeat be-
fore the Indians from the agency
school Saturday afternoon. The score
was 5 to in favor of the redskins,
but this does not represent the COM
parative strength of the two teams, as
displayed By Saturdays contest, for
the palefaces were outclassed at every
turn. When the final whistle sound
ed the Indians had the ball on the
academy's two yard line and would
have scored with another half min
ute of play.
Since it was the first game of the
season for both teams and the first
time that many of the players on
both sides had ever mixed in a real
game, it was not to be supposed that
a scientific exhibition of the great
sport would be forthcoming. 1t was
decidedly interesting, however, from
the fact that the score was kept
down, that the ball changed hands
frequently and that both sides were
within scoring distance on several oc-
casions.
The result of the game was a de-
cided surprise to the defeated play
ers and to the small number of spec
tators who had gone down to witness
it. One of the reasons why the
academy team was so badly defeated
was the fact that the players were
busy trying TO figure out whether
they should make a score of 40 or 60
to nothing against the Indians. They
were too confident.
The Indians had no team work at
all. but they had few individual
players who have had considerable
experience and they tore through the
academy's poor interference at will.
The academy team also has some
good individal men, but they did not
play together, Taylor at right end
was tower of strength on defense,
but he was no good in carrying the
ball. In the first place he was not
given any interference, and in the
second he lost too much time and
ground in running back and lodging
around. The whole team did better
work on the defense than on the Of
Tense
Both teams have the making of
strong elevens and with experience
and coaching, either one of them
should be able to give the crack high
school team a run for its money.

rmnilIn Horses in Demand.

w. D. Roberts, the well-known
Spokane horsebuyer, is again in the
city and vicinity, gathering up a car
load of draft horses. He took out a
carload of big animals few days ago
and was so successful in disposing of
them that he came back to repeat
the performance. He says this will
probably be his last trip this fall,
however as the apparent good de-
mand has caused the horse owners
to raise their prices so high that the
animals cannot be handled profitably
by the middlemen.
