PONTCHARTRAIN STAKE
is TODApS FEATURE
Five Favorites cashed yesterday
Again-Lawton Virgins
Big Disappointment

After a day without a big feature,
the Windsor track comes back strong
today with the Pontchartrain stake
as the big event for the day.
On the strength OF the former per-
formances OF the Schorr stable in the
Frontier and Edenwold stakes, win
ming both, and the past performance
of Hamilton in his two winnings In
this present Windsor meeting, the
Schoor representative Is likely to be
started a strong favorite.
However, the colt viii have all
kinds OF strong opposition In the
other seven horses that will face the
barrier when Starter Dade is ready
for the big feature.
The bookmakers are praying for a
change Of luck. After two days OF
disaster, they were handed a third
lemon yesterday, when FIVE favorftes
Iromped home for first money. Their
only recompense was In the winning
of Chepontuc in the sixth race. I'M
prudent, a sure good thing got In a
tangle In leaving the barrier and at
no time was In the running, while
Chepontuc came from behind and
drew away into a commanding lead
In the stretch.
Lawton Virgins in the fourth race
WAS backed heavily but was COM
plete disappointment. The horse
sulked and finished last, 20 lengths
behind Brig, that came in fourth.
7 The track was again slow yester'
day after the cloudbursts of the pre-
vious day, but gives promise of get.
ting into shape for fast racing before
.he meeting ends. The track showed
signs OF drying up some yesterday
and ought to be in fairly good shape
today.

Want New Line to Traverse West Side:
Plans Made to Promote MADE
in-Oregon" Movement

alton for the proposed county school
and agricultural fair in this city next
fall, was received in which it was
announced that the court, at it's re-
cent meeting, had agreed to donate
$500 for such purpose.
The urgent need of an appropria-
ton from the county in aid of a suit
able exhibit from Polk county at the
state fair was suggested by several
members, Edwin Jacobson taking the
lead in the discussion. He declared
that other counties in the state were
literally supplied with funds for such
purposes and Polk was thus placed
at a disadvantage. He thought that
this county should make a creditable
exhibit and urged that a committee
of three be appointed to confer with
the county court. 1t was further sug-
gested that the commercial bodies
of other towns in the county be re-
end that Polk might be faithfully
represented at the fair. A committee
consisting of Edwin Jacobson, w. A.
Ayres and w. L. Soehren was ap-
pointed to manage the matter.
Miscellaneous Business.
Much time was spent in discussion
of the claim of the Southern Pacific
company against the city for public
ity purposes and w. V. Fuller was
appointed as a committee to arrange
some basis of settlement. 1t was
further voted that the Representative
of the company who completed the
last agreement between Dallas and
the company, be invited to meet with
the business men of the city in an
endeavor to agree upon some salts
factory basis of settlement.
President Wood, of the Polk Coun-
ty Poultry association, asked the
club for an appropriation of $3.50 to
aid them in purchasing a number of
cups for prizes at future shows and
also for additional coops, agreeing
in return to guarantee a large and
creditable exhibit. Inasmuch as the
association embraced the entire coun-
ty, Mr.. Jacobson thought that other
commercial bodies should be asked
to assist. No definite action was ta-
ken.
Manager Partridge of the Dallas
Brick company appeared before the
club and exhibited several samples
of brick recently turned out at his
plant. He showed brick made from
Buena Vista clay and others made
from different combinations of the
Buena Vista clay and Dallas clay. He
stated that the company was desir-
Gus of installing new machinery to
enable it to turn out face brick from
the Buena Vista product and also to
manufacture tiling. and declared that
as good brick could be made here as

OWNERS OF DALLAS CEMENT

TAKE OUT FOUR HUN
DRIED TONS DAILY.
TESTS SHOW HIGH QUALITY
Oswego Plant to Be Enlarged to Ca
pacity of 5000 Barrels Every
Twenty-fOur HOurs-POrtland Has
Any City Similarly Situated.

The Portland Cement company
whose factory is now under construc-
ton at Oswego, has decided to build
the second unit as soon as the first
unit is completed which will be some
time next spring. Actual cement hos
been made from the raw materials
found near Dallas and Roseburg and
tests show it is of high grade. The
output of the first unit will be 1000
barrels daily.
Experts have carefully figured out
that the capacity of the factory can
be doubled for an additional cost of
100000, as the investments in rail-
roads and a greater portion of the
plant will remain the same.
Business For Dallas.
This means more business for Dali
las as the company will require 400
tons of cement rock daily from the
Dallas quarry. This is estimated to
cost the company soc per ton for
quarrying and 15c per ton for switch
ing to main line, so the company's
expense here is estimated at $4,000
yearly for many years to come. 1t
also means a large increase in Polk
countys tax rolls as the improve
ments at quarry and railroad will
cost close to $4,000 this year alone.
Demand Is Great.

growing in demand like cement, and
its use is so rapidly enlarging that
no person can tell how many million
of barrels will be needed to supply
the demand, one, two or five years
hence.
At present, Portland has the larg-
est undeveloped market for Portland
cement of any city in the United
States not supplied by one or more
local plants within reasonable ship
ping distance. Portland now receives
her cement chiefly from California
mills. more than 500 miles distant
and inland from so TO 100 miles to
water shipment, so there never was
a more favorable time to develop an
industry of this kind as this company
will have an advantage Of SO cents
per barrel in freight rates over Cal
ifornla mills. AS the Oswego works
will be in position to keep down all
competition. the men behind this en-
terprise have arranged for this plant
to have a capacity Of 5000 barrels
daily.

Salem. Or, Jan. 19.-The lavish
hand of appropriation, not alone by
lhe State Legislature at it's last be-
ennial session, but through continu-

slatures and through appropriations
made directly by the people at gen.
eral elections, has resulted in the

fOr the fiscal year ending in 1912 to
he amount of $S,O6S,S15, to be paid
by the people of oregon in this one
year alone-an amount never even
approached during previous years.
