AS with other trotting and racing circuits
IN the country, SO far this season, unfavorable
weather has operated TO the detriment of the
different associations composing the north
western circuit. Red Wing lad fairly good
week, weatherly considered, was, for reasons
not necessary to ennumerate, most lament
able failure. At Hastings rain interfered
and spoiled the sport on the last day, and the
association came out loser. At Fargo it was
almost continuous rain, and after spending
more than thousand dollars in trying 10 put
the track in condition for racing, the associa-
ton was on Friday compelled to declare all
races oil, and the horses were shipped to Grand
Forks. Here for the frat two days
the clements were favorable, and the sport for
those days was most satisfactory, with an at
tendance promising q financial success. Then
the inevitable rain began TO fall, neccSsitating
4 pOstponement of Thursdays events to Fri
day. and on Friday, the rain continuing, final
abandonment of the uncomp etcd programme,
The above outlines in brief, a series of dis
appointments and losses most discouraging 10
the horsemen and associations interested,
the details of which have been given in the
GLOBE from day to day as they occurred.
There is, however, the eatisfastion of know
ing that while these disappointments and
losses have occurred, thanks TO the liberaity,
enterprise and fair dealing of the several asso-
will in the near future undoubtedly become
one of the most popular and successful trot-
ting circuits in the country. The several as
sociations by their liberal purses, en-
terprise shown and square deal
ing have, to use Il vulgarism,
made themselves solid with the owners of fast
stock, so that they can rely upon large entries
for future meetings.
