Tie Location of the DripiIlD Park.


To the Editor of the Globe.
understand that meeting of gentlemen
interested in the formation of gentlemen s
driving park association will be held at the
Merchants hotel this evening. The necessity
for the establishment of such an institution
with grounds contiguous and convenient to
the city is at the present time pressing, and
will continue to be more so as the years pro-
gress. 1t is important that the grounds Sc
lected for the track and club house be such as
to command the attendance of gentlemen and
ladies rather than of those who in some cities
attend racing meetings only for the purpose
of carOuse.
1 understand that there are three locations
proposed-one on the Como road, one between
the city and the old driving park, and one on
the Fort road, short distance this side of
Fort Smelling. To the first mentioned loca-
tion there is the objection that it is situated
in too close proximity to certain resorts of
dlsreputable persons, who, no matter what
the regulations may be, are liza
BILE and almost certain to force
their way into the grounds, and thus drive out
the reputable element, who would like to make
turf sports fashionable and respectable. At
any rate, the surroundings of the grounds
would inevitably be such as to repel rather
than attract the patronage of our best people.
To the second-named place the only objec-
tion that can be offered is its difficulty of ac-
cess. To the third there are, as far as I have
been able to ascertain, no objections 1t com
prises about 100 acres, as level as the floor of a
kitchen, between the Fort Road and the st.
Paul and Sioux City track, and equally con-
venient to st. Paul and Minneapolis people.
There are no unhealthful surroundings
moral influences that can impregnate the track,
for the property in the vicinity is owned by
citizens whose character is a guarantee that it
will not be sold, leased Or rented for improper
purposes. An inspection of the premises, a
consideration of its accessibility, and knowl-
edge of the intentions of the owners of the
property surrounding, eonvenince me that it
is by all odds the most desirable location for
the gentemans driving park Let the meet
ing this evening consider it.
