SPRING TIME CALENDAR.

When the sunny days cone often,
Though the snow>drifts finger long
When the brooks begin to wonder

When the evergreens are telling
To each other, grooming low,
How the early buds are swelling,
And the grasses sprInging so
Boldly, where slope or hollow
Catches sunshine all the year,
And the ferns are soon to follow
Then we guess that Spring Is near.
When the arbutus is creeping

Trotting Horses

A friend asks why we devote Sc
much space III tho Journal to the
trotting horse. The answer to this
question is found in tho fact that
trotting horses bring higher prices
than any other, and cngross tho at.
tention of breeders more generally
than all other types Of horses com.
blned. When we remember that
ninety-six trotting horses made a
public record of $50 or better last
season, and that OF this whole number
there is perhaps not one that could
be. purchased for less than $4,000,
while many of them have been sold
at prices ranging from 100000, to
$4,000, and few reached nearly if
not quite $5O,O0o, with perhaps a
hundred more equally valuable, that
ssss t=slasse 30 w5rc con1ihede Is toot all ALL

ing that horse men should be direct.
ed to tho matter of breeding trotters,
and that this interest should over.
shadow all others in the Horse Do
partment of oar Journal. The high
prices which tast-trotting horses COM
mand IN the market has had the
effect of directing the attention of
breeders generally to study of the
various strains OF blood and their
crosses to degree hitherto unknown
IN the annals Of horse breeding, and
it is not surprising that our columns
should manifest this tendency OF the
popular mlnd. The race horse has
never attracted any thing like the
general attention Of the American
people that it now accorded to the
trotter; and tho prices which the
former have commanded in the mar
ket have never except in a few iso-
lated cases approximated anywhere
near that OF the latter. 1t is this OF
naarAet palue that is causing breeders
to study the question ofhow trotting
horses may be most successfully
bred, and it is the province of a
Breeders Journal to aid in the in
YES stigation of this subject. The
gencrly principles of breeding are the
same, whether applied to trotting,
running, or draft horses, and dis
cussiol.s upon the breeding of any
one class are not without their value
and interest to breeders OF each OF
the others. We desire to give these
discussions tho widest latitude; and
advocates of each and every family
OF horses vii. find our columns always
open TO well written, pointed com
munlcations on the subject, whether
the views of the writer coincide Will
those of tho editor Or not. Tho

DeadhoadjSm Abolished.

At meeting OF the Board of Di-
rectors of the leading Railroads
whose lines extend into Illinois, a
resolution was adopted, abolishing
the pass system. In other words, it
was decided to put an end to all
deadheadism. This action was no
doubt provoked by the bill passed by
the General Assembly of tie State
of Illinois, restricting companies in
their charges for transportation. The
resolution requires all editors who
hold passes to forfeit them. Legisla-
tors will have to pass over their
stamps like poor people, and railroad
officials will be required TO pay for
riding over the lines Of other corpor-
ations. A resolution, allowing MN
isters Of the gospel to ride for halt
fare failed. 70 state the matter

tions to them. This sweeping change
will, we believe, have q salutary cf,
feet upon the matter Of securing leg
islatien that will be acceptable to the
great masses Of the people, who need
every assistance possible in reducing
freight charges to the sea board mar
kets. Tho date fixed for the aboli-
ton of the pass system is July lst,
and wo cannot but feel that some
good will result, provided the reso
luton is rigldly enforced.

The Chicago Jubilee.

Tho Chicago Evening Journal has
this to say of the Jubilee given in
that city last week:
The June Jubilee Of the present
week has been an event. 1t filled
Chicago with an immense crowd OF
strangers, whose chief desire was to
see how men OF energy and vim have
rebuilt III the most substantial and
imposing style, destroyed city III a
year and half, and how this won
drsus metropolis Of the Northwest
continues to grow and spread and
improve. In this ono respect the
stran gers who came to see us have
gone away more than gratified. They
saw, were astonished, and will hence
forth not cease to have faith or ad-
mlration for Chicago. But as regards
the Jubilee proper, the musical event
and its arrangements, we fear that
many have gone away with dlsap.
pointed emotions. Mr.. Gilmore ard
his great orchestra and the formiia-
Bile chorus did their best, and, under
the peculiar embarrassments OF the
occasion, did we'll; but the business
managers OF the atfair-Qt was not
the City Of Chicago, but private
making parties, who got up
and managed the bllee)-did not,
we fear, do their full duty by the
throng whom they induced to crowd
into the great new depot There
was a lamentable lack OF system and
order; little forethought and ener.
gy for the comfort and convenience
of the multitude, would have pre-
vented much Of tho indignation and
disgust which filled thousands oil
the spectators, who paid a dollar
merely to have their lives almost
crushed or annoyed out of them.
We are sorry-evcrybody III Chi.
cago is sorry-that the managers
were not more thoughtful OF the
matter of good order and reasonable
comfort. There are other minor
matters in which they are equally
censurable, among which was the
shabby manner in which they treated
the representatives Of the press from
out-of town, to whom they owed SO
much, and who certainly We're entl-
tied to decent consideration. But it
is too late to amend these matters
now We can only regret that, con.
sldering the general success OF the
Jubilee, there is any occasion for
complaint.
