Fourteen Stalwart Stanford Athletes
Win Annual Regatta
By w. RUSSELL COLE

oars were flashing oftenest. The first
lead of the cardinal was never over

shell was half a length ahead and
steadily gaining.
1t was not until the shells had
come within the last three-eighths of
a mile of the finish line that the shore
crowds were able. with field glasses
and telescopes, to tell surely which
crew was which Then as the men in
the shells were recognized and the
word spread that Stanford was lead
ing a prolonged shout went UP from
both banks of the estuary. The steady
stroke was continued to the end and
the cardinal shell crossed the line a

lengths.
CARDINAL NEVER HEADED
Fifteen minutes after the freshman
race was ended the varsity crews were
sent off from the starting line at the
boat club. The start was even, but
at the half mile the Stanford varsity
forged ahead and took a lead that
never was cut down The cardinal
shell pulled steadily away from it's
rival, but not so much but that the
first mile was practically a bow and
bow race. At the mile the Stanford
stroke, which had been SO at the
start. was quickened to 40 per minute
for squirt that widened the distance
between the two shells to two
lengths. Then the Stanford stroke
dropped baek again TO steady pull

Officially unrecognized a representa-
tives of their university and without
hope of securing the honors usually
heaped upon successful athletes, II
stalwart Stanford men achieved double
victory for the cardinal yesterday
morning on the Oakland estuary by
winning both freshman and varsity
races in the seventh annual regatta
with the University of California.
Officially yesterdays races-the best
that ever have been rowed between
Stanford and California crews-were
not intercollegiate events. Within the
last year the student bodies of the two
big universities have withdrawn their
sanction and financial support from
rowing and the regatta has been
stricken from the intercollegiate sports
calendar of the year
But to every partisan of either uni
versity the race yesterday was as much
an intercollegiate struggle as is the an
nuaI football match. the track meet or
the baseball series, and the rivalry was
just as keen.
DAY AND COURSE PERFECT
Never. while the crews rowed under
the sanction of their respective student
bodies, was there held a better or more
beautiful race than either of those wit
messed yesterday morning by a thin
crowd of undergraduates that alto
gether numbered scarcely 500. The
new course in the upper channel of the
estuary was far superior to those over
which the former races have been
rowed. the water was unruff1ed and the
day was perfect.
The ban of the student body disfavor
was forgotten by the watchers the mo-
ment the two four Dared freshman
shells were caught sight of. side by
side, far down the estuary stretch be-
low the Alameda Park street bridge. 1t
was not a contest between the 'Lagu-
nita boat club" and the California
boat club" that the spectators were
looking upon, but one more test of su-
premacy between the old rivals-a race
between the Stanford 'freshies" and the
California babies for the honor and
glory of their colleges.
So it was 20 minutes later when the
eights rounded the turn in the course
a mile from the finish line and started
on the long, grinding dash toward the
goal. Nobody thought of senior
crews of "A boat club. but shout after
shout of encouragement rang out to
the men of the varsity eights' of Cali
fornia and Stanford.
NO DELAY IN STARTING
There was no reason for delay in
starting the races and there was no
delay. Both freshman crews were in
the water promptly at 1880 o'clock.
and both were at the starting line for
their mile race 10 minutes later. There
was final dash of the judges motor
boat down the course to see that all
was clear, and then the watchers gath
cred on the banks below the Park
street bridge heard the crack of a shot
from the starting line a mile down the
creek, and the race was on.
At the third or fourth stroke the
Stanford four, rowing steady stroke

began gradually to nose away from
the rival shell. The California fresh
men rowed a slightly faster stroke
than the cardinal crew at the start
but slowed down until the Stanford

The Ohio Republicans do good
deal of pointing with pride at the
accomplishment of the Republicans
as a national party, all of which is
very good and proper to certain
extent, but to our mind it would
have been better had they elabor-
ated less upon what the party has
done in the past and more upon
what it proposes to do in the fu-
ture. For instance the various re.
cent acts of the President and Con-
gress are given a wordy endorse.
ment while the following planks
are dismissed with a casual men.

Limiting the tax rate for all pur.
poses to 10 mills; supervision and
regulation of all public utilities by

ities the right Of home rule and to
the people the right to vote direct

chises; legislation for establishing

state law requiring the publicity

ratification of the income tax
amendment to the federal constitu.

oh no, not they; perish tne
thought. But then let's see how
fair they are; a few years age
when they came into power in St.
Louis, one of the first things done
by them was to redistrict the city
in the same fair manner in which
they now propose to redistrict the
state: their brazen attempt in St.
Louis has given them courage to
attempt to steal the state. In St.
Louis the Democrats polled 62,O74
votes and the Republicans polled
5000, but the Republicans redis-
tricted the city so that the Demo
Gratis who polled 62,O74 votes only
elect congressman while the Re-
publicans, by the gerrymander
elect l3 congressman. The people
of Madison county will not be fool
ed on this question.
Now, what do you think of that
Bro. Purcell gives the Republicans
of Missouri a representation in
Congress of 13 and the Democrats
but 8! The way the clerk Of the
House makes up Missouri's pres
ent representation in Congress is,
Democrats, 10; Republicans, 6.
Another thing that is wrong in
Bro. Purcell's statement is that the
Republicans on getting control OF
the city of St. Louis gerrymander-
ed the congressional districts, when
as a matter of fact they have done
nothing of the kind, because they
have no power to do SO. The con-
gressional districts stand today
Just as they have done since the
Democratic legislature Of 1901
gerrymandered them on the census
returns of 1900. 1t used to be so,
before the Sixteenth district was
established, that the Democrats
elected - congressman to the Re-
publican party's 8, on a constantly
dwindling Democratic majority ,
! and it is just possible that Editor
Purcell has reversed the figures in
bis attempt to make the Republi
can party appear as bad as bis own
party has been acting. We would
advise Bro. Purcell to correct bis
figures and not let them stand for
the befooling Of the people OF
Madison county. Just one more
| remark, the Republicans ere not
trying to steal anything in asking
the submission of this question to
the people, If they were out on an
expedition of robbery they would
hardly be asking the people of
| Missouri to go in COLLISION with
| them. They only want the people
to Judge whether the Democrats
are entitled to two state senators
where the Republicans have only
| one on total vote in favor of the
latter party.

Our Democratic exchanges are

Our Democratic exchanges are
continually harping upon the con
tention, projected nowhere else.
that the Republican party Of Mis-
souri, is being dominated by the
big brewery interests of St. Louis
They have undoubtedly conceived
this idea from the notorious fact
that while the Democratic party
was in full power in the state ii
was welded to and openly consort'
ed with the brewery interests
throughout its whole regime, and
they feel that the Republican part y
cannot possibly be any better in
this respect than the Democratic
party. The Republican party
never took its orders from the
brewery interests on the matter OF
submitting the prohibition ques'
tion. At the last session of the
Legislature, the House being Re-
publican and the Senate Demo
cratic, the former body passed a
resolution to submit the PROPOSE.
tion to the people, but the Senate,
taking its orders from the liquor
interests, refused to concur in the
resolution. Because Otto Stifel,
a leading brewer of St. Louis, is d
Republican who takes an active
interest in the affairs of the party
is less an indication that the Re-
publican party is being dominat'
ed by the brewery interests, than
that Senator Snake Kinney,
tough saloonkeeper of the same
city, is directing the affairs of the
Democratic party. We note that
the Hon. Snake is the Democratic
nominee for Congress in the 18th
district as the result of yester'
days Democratic primary. Got
anything more to say on the sub
iect!
