to finance the meet in Washington, but.
though formal application for the meet
was made to the Aero Club Of America in
New York, no notice was taken Of the
application.
Late in the season, when there was not
time enough left to prepare for the meet,
the Aero Club of America sent Lawrence
Gillespie. one of its members. to Wash
ington to talk over the matter with the
Washington Aero Club officials. The
Aero Club of America demanded terms
for considering Washington that would
have absorbed about 80 per cent Of the
proceeds Of the meet before letting Wash
ington and Baltimore begin to take in
any money to reimburse themselves for
financing the meet. In this view Of the
case the Washington club dropped the
matter.

and the subsidiary Organization Of the
Aero Club Of America that had been
financing the meet got into a lawsuit
with the Wright Company, with which
it had been working. over division OF
the gate receipts, so that 1t was impos-
sible afterward to tell how much money
was made or lost In the enterprise.
Race Of $50 Miles.
This year the only race in connection
with the international meet that will be
held in this country Is the elimination
race to select the American team. 1t is
now planned that this shall cover about
go miles across country, and the Aero
Club of America wants to start it from
Washington and finish at Belmont Park,
collecting enough from the towns on the
route to pay the expenses Of the meet,
and leaving the Belmont Park gate re-
ceipts as profit for the New York club.
Proposals for this intercity race are to
be sent to the Washington Aero Club. DR..
Zahm. secretary Of the Washington Club,
said he thought the scheme for an inter-
city flight was excellent but suggested
that II ought to originate and be financed
in New York. If it were arranged in this
way, he was quite sure the Washington
club could secure the racers the use of
Potomac Park or the White House ellipse
as a landing place, and would be very
glad to welcome them when they arrived.

The Gear Of the House.

Mr.. Cannon sharply criticized the rules
for not permitting the discharge Of the

REFERS TO THE PRECEDENTS

The new rules which will govern the
House of Representatives during the life
OF the present Congress were adopted
at half-past yesterday evening on
viva voce vote. There was no demand
for roll call. Consideration of the rules
question was the only business done by
the House following the reading of the
Presidents brief message on reciprocity
In large measure the new rules are the
Same as those handed down by many
Congresses in the past. the democrats
claiming that the greatest reform is in
taking away from the Speaker his power
to appoint committees and to designate
the chairmen Of committees. The new
rules provide for the election of all COM
mittees. The second reform is a return
to the former democratic practice OF
permitting Legislation on APPROPRIATION bills
when that legislation tends to reduce the
Of the government.
The democratic rules continue "caIen-
dar Wednesday, and the unanimous con-
sent calendar and seek to perfect the rule
for the discharge of committees. This
latter rule. the democrats claim. effec-
lively does away with the former practice
of sitting legislation in committees.

Minority Cries "Gag."

There was a cry of gag from the re-
publican minority when the democrats
adopted special order limiting debate
to four hours and prohibiting Amendments,
permitting only one substitute set Of rules
to be offered. The speeches were mostly
political and there was no serious fight
on the rules themselves.
Mr.. Mann charged the democrats with
insincerity in much they said in praise
of the rules. and asserted that they had
no purpose to take away from themselves,
as majority. the right to control leg1s-
lation. He characterized the rule for
the discharge Of committees as IAN ut
ter absurdity, not to say idiocy.'

Il want to say here and now he de-

posed by this legislation. are an indorse-

merely because the majority of the

thrown open to amendment, with
two days general debate, and with the
most perfect freedom OF amendment And
at that time the republicans had a ma

PORTLAND PEOPLE
COMMEND ROUNDUP

That the visiting people who attend

with the show is attested by the fol-
lowing set of resolutions presented to

sition of frontier life ever given in

And whereas, At this event the life
of the cowboy has been portrayed to
the public in all its various phases,
And whereas, The program was ex-
ecuted with unusual promptness and
dispatch.
Therefore, We, the Portland passen-
gers of the Daily Oregon Journal

realization. Though there are stin
quite number of visitors in the city,
the great maddening crowd which
choked the streets during the three
days Of the Roundup has dwindled
away to the many sections of the coun-
try from whence it came.
Though tired and worn by the week
of entertainment, everyone in Pendle-
ton is smiling the smile of the pleased
because of the great and qualified
success of every department of the
Roundup. The three days wild west
show was undoubtedly the greatest
entertainment ever pulled off in the
northwest and there are thousands
who will deny that there has ever been
any show any place at any time that
was its equal. AS yet no single COM
plant or expression of disappointment
has been heard which reflects upon
the Roundup and, if there is anyone
who went away dissatisfied, he never
voiced his feelings but was awed in

The qualification of the residents of
Pendleton and the directors of the
Roundup does not come entirely
from the fact that the cowboy carni-
val itself was such a huge success.
They are proud also because Pendle-
ton as city proved itself good host
by solving the two greatest problems
that confronts any city putting on q
mammoth festival that of providing
accommodation for the host of Wis
itors and that of giving them adequate
police protection.
Despite the thousands of people who
swarmed into the city for the celebra-
ton, the accommodations of the city
were not taxed to their utmost. There
was absolutely no necessity of a single
person going without sleep for want
OF a bed, according to Accommoda-
ton Manager Smythe, for at all times
there We're rooms listed at headquar-
ters untaken. The feeding of the
crowd caused more inconvenience than
did the providing of rooms but all
were given enough to eat although
many had to wait their turns. Mr..
Smythe estimates that at one time.
PendletOn was accommodating 10000
or more visitors, more than twice her
population, and he doubts whether or
not that feat has ever been duplicat-
