A Racing Term.

The APPFAl's proposition to have ;
: racing term of few days, to follow thu
close of the State Fair, appears to bt
favorably entertained by our citizens
generally. 1t rests with the Carson
5 City Jockey Club to say whether or moi
we shall have the proposed Fall meet
> ing. Mr.. Sweeney, the lessee of Tread.
ways Park, informed us. the other
day, that the race track and all its
privileges, pool selling, bar, ETC., could
be had without charge on his part.
This is certainly a liberal starter. Mr..
! S. is stopping at Truckee. and conse-
0quently unable to make personal effort
toward getting up the proposed racing,
but has done his full share toward the
enterprise, as shown in the proposition
above given. We have assurance that
Theodore Winters, always friend to
our town, is prepared to bring his stock
3over here, which embraces the best
equine blood of this coast. In addition
Ito this he will contribute $50 to the
fund for the proposed meeting. We
have no doubt that other horsemen,
whose stables will be represented at
Sacramento and Reno, will bring their
stock to Carson if anything like liberal
purses are offered. The V. & T. r. r. :,
no doubt, will give special rates for the
of horses to and FROM
Carson. The proposed races will afford
the people of this section rare sport,
the scheme will be a good thing in a!
business way, which is no unimportantl
just now, and we hope|
Carson's live men, both in and outside
Of our jockey club, will take the matter
in hand and give us the races.

Rents Too High.

Some of our property holders do not
seem to realize the changed condition
3of things in Carson. Having houses
Ito rent these people seem to think that
tenants can pay as high rents now as in
stbe better times. 1t would be a useful
lesson to learn that with dull business,

that rents ought to be made to CORE
Ispond with the change for the worse

bills, or notices, is not Il cheering one,
but it carries a lesson which some of
Carson's landlords would do we'll toj
profit by.
