As everybody anticipated, it has
been the sensation of the week
Though too early by month, it has
received more attention than was antici-
pated. The races were extensively ad-
vertized-the purses were liberal and
the fact that we have the best track in
the Northwest, all combined-drew a
large crowd for the third day.
For the purpose of iusuring the
award of premiums on merit alone, the
managers decided to keep the names of
owners and producers of the articles on
exhibition, secret until the premiums
should be awarded. This fact absolute.
ly forbids special notices Of rare or ex-
cellent articles, or, rather Of connecting
with these notices the names of the per
sons by whom they were put on exhi.
bitten.
