TACOMA VISITORS BOOST ROUNDUP

Y. II. Martin, manager of the Ia
coma club and chamber of commerce:
1T is the last of the marvelously
sensat tional shows that ever will be
staged 1t is wonderful in its exciting
interest. Such show never was
staged before and never can be stag
ed anywhere except in Pendleton. 1t
does not need to be advertised, as it
advertises itself. and will grow larger
and better year after year"
President c. II. Hyde of the Taco
ma Commercial club and chamber of
Commerce:
eth show is a much greater one
than | ever expected to see. The Ia
coma delegation to a man saw it both
Friday and saturday and to a man
they cheered the daring cowboys and
cowgirls who made it possible. Be-
hind that there is a lesson in organic
alton that the larger cities of the
northwest may study with profit. Toe
much can scarcely be said for the
Roundup and Tacoma next year un'
doubtedly will send very much larg-
er number to see it."

OFFICIALS DESERVE GREAT PRAISE

one of the remarkable features in
Roundup was the activity of the local
sheriffs and police force, assisted by
special officers, which prevented the
celebration from becoming a carnival
of crime. BY their alertness and Wig
ilance and prompt action, they not only
kept the streets clear of drunks and
disorderlies but they protected the
residents and their home and the
thousands of visitors here from be-
coming victims of crooks and thugs
OF all varieties.
So thoroughly did the officers do
their work that no small wonder was
created among visitors by the manner
in which they were protected, Hun
dreds of crooks came here from all
directions, bent on reaping a harvest
from the crowds, but they counted
without taking into consideration the
fact that their coming was anticipated

Tacoma visitors were among the
most enthusiastic and Interested spec
tators at the Roundup and they were
also most generous in their praise of
the show. They remained here until
midnight Saturday and all the time
they were here sang the praises of
PeHGleton and the Roundup.
Here are epressions from some of
the Tacoma leaders,

vcrsity of Puget Sound: 81 was told

seen no such results. On the streets
at night there has been less rowdyism
than one may see in any of the larger
cities on any ordinary evening. The
masher apparently did not come here.

tional feature of value, eXemplifying
the early days of the northwest and
it seems to me that those who decry

Washington, September 30.-The
most sweeping investigation of big
Business" in politics ever held in the
United States was begun today by u
special senate committee Financial
and political giants of the nation are
awaiting witness stand ordeals
How far has big business gone in
influencing legislation in both the
senate and house?
What senators and representatives
have been in intimate correspondence

How much money have gigantic
corporations given to influence nomi-
nations and elections?
These are some of the principal
questions to be brought out by scores
of witnesses ordered to appear before
the committee.
The investigation today Is being

The practice of socialism means the

according to estimates made by the
directors this morning. The paid ad-
missions amounted to something over
$4,000, which with the courtesy guests
and those allowed to enter Saturday
without paying after the gates had
been closed will bring the total up to
$1,000.
According to Treasurer George \.
Hartman, the cash receipts for the
three days will reach over S25, 900 and
under $4,000 which is $4,000 ap-
proXimately more than the revenue
from the 1911 show.
This is more than satisfactory to
the management for it will give them
a considerable surplus after all ex-
penses are paid and with which they
can further improve the park and
prepare for the show next year.

Everybody is congratulating every
body else on the wonderful and un-
predecented success of the Roundup.

they were able to lay hands was made

Speaking TO an audience that filled
the Oregon theater almost to capa-
city, Rev. Father Bernard Vaughan
noted Catholic lecturer of London, last
night directed some sharp thrusts al
the principles and doctrines of social
ism. First pointing out the good that
the socialists have done the world, ne
then went on to show wherein their
theory was fundamentally wrong and
impossible OF practice. his criticisms
being sharp and direct.
Father Vaughan knows the art OF
holding an audience. Eloquent, force
full and impressive, he also has rarr
sense of humor and entertains as well
as instructs his hearers by illustrating
his points from fund of short stories
and anecdotes which he has at his
command.
Sitting on the stage with the hon
ored visitor were all of the members
OF the local Catholic clergy and sever
al visiting church dignitaries, Mayor

lowing a beautiful vocal solo by Miss
Gladys Rahe, Mr.. Winter introduced
the speaker as one Of the foremost
students OF social problems in the
world and paying him an eloquent
tribute.
Preliminary to his address, Father
Vaughan spoke for several moments
on the Roundup, enthusiastically
praisng it as the greatest outdoor en-
tertainment in the world. 81 enjoyed

OF applause from the delighted Pen

In opening his lecture on Social
ism" the speaker declared the world
Is indebted to the socialists for two
things, an example of energy, gener-
osity and sacrifice and for having
brought to the attention of the public
the wrongs of our poorer brothers
and sisters and the miseries of slum-

CITY is BACK TO NORMAL AGAIN

Pendleton is today the deserted
village" Save for Uttered streets,
tired people and looks of satisfaction
there is little here today to show that
only last week the city entertained
some six or eight times its population
and was the scene of the greatest out
door show on earth.
Yesterday the flags and bunting
were taken down from the streets and
buildings in the business section and
today the thoroughfares present the
usual appearance save for much dirt
and confetti that the street sweeper
has not yet accumulated.
At the fair pavilion the work of
dismantling is almost finished. Most
of the exhibits have all been taken
away. The fish and game exhibits
have been shipped back to Bonneville
and Corvallis and force of busy

Lawrence, Mass, Sept. 30.-Serlous
fighting between the police and the
textile workers striking as a protest
against the treatment accorded Joseph
Ettor and Arturo Giovannitti, labor
leaders, held on murder charge,
broke out again this morning.
The police stations are jammed
with men and women prisoners. The
worst rioting was at Essex and Union
streets. Here the state and city po-
lice charged thousand strike sympa-
thizers. The rioting started over at
tempts of the strikers to prevent
workers entering the mills.
Despite the chilly weather and long
before daylight, 10000 pickets sur
rounded. the Wood-Ayer Washington
mills AS soon as rioting started au-
tos loaded with police, were rushed
to the scene, desperate rioting ensu-
ing.
Many strikers and policemen were
beaten into insensibility. The crowds
converged at Essex and Union streets
from all pOlhtS anu Ten HliHuteS udL-
tie was waged. The police finally
drove the strikers back. A squad of
newspaper reporters and photograph
ers came in behind the strikers and
the latter turned suddenly on the
newspaper men, one photographer
being badly beaten.
One striker is dying from injuries
and several others are in a serious
condition. More trouble is expected
before night, although the police are
trying to keep the streets clear of pc
destrians. Women took a prominent
part in the demonstration. Hundreds
participated in the clash with the po-
police. OF the two score or more
prisoners, five are women.

was some little dissatisfaction ex-

However, Dell Blanchett has not
been allowed to retain the title of

has been given to Jim Roach of Mea-

second place winner. Blancett had
roped on Friday and his time was
poor. However he appeared again on
the field Saturday as the representa-
tive of Dick Parker who had his leg
broken during the Friday wild horse
race, and succeeded in throwing his
steer in the fastest time of the week.
However, it was finally ruled that he

The spot where the wrecking work
is most noticeable is that vacant block
