offer OF the association to have their meet

West make grand rally and send in the
nominations of all their best bred and
speediest youngsters, they will thus not
only contribute materially to the brilliant
success of the meeting which is held this
year at Albany but assist in all probability
the agitation to hold it in future in more
central location for Western interests.
