IT rs the intention of the National
Jockey Club next week to give The
people of Washington and It's visitors
the finest race meeting ever held at the
Nations Capital. remarkable fine
sport which has heretofore been en-.
ioycd under the excellent management
of this association bids fair to be cX-
cclled at the coming meeting. The i'm
provcmcnts at the course and grounds
have kept apace with the success of the
club, and all its income from the gen.
crous patronage of the people has
been expended in fitting up and max
ing more attractive this beautiful rae
ing park. There is no more rational
enjoyment within the reach of our citi-
zens than the coming weeks sport; an
honest contest between numerous
spirited horses, infusing enthusiasm
throughout an immense assemblage of
visitors this bright, cXhilarating Oc-
tober weather. It is such outdoor re.
creation as this that brings good appc-
tites and rosy health to the men and
women who participate in its enjoy
ment

In THIRTEEN of the States there will
be.fall elections this year. These States
are Mississippi, Nebraska, Arkansas,
Colorado, Connecticut, Iowa, Mary
land, Massachusetts, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vNnia, Virginia, New Jersey and New
York. The most interest centers in the
Ohio and Virginia elections, as upon the
complexion of the legislatures chosen
by them depends the complexion of two
L, S. Senators. In the other States the
elections, except of course in the gen
eral results, will not be of National in
terest, although the New York cleo
tion will be taken in measure as
expressing by the result what his native
State thinks of President Cleveland.

the same disadvantage as he did prior
to the new departure. An opinion that
is warped by the writer's prejudice in
one direction is worth no more than q
pufr inspired by complimentary adj
mission card in another sill we wish
our esteemed contemporary well Of its
venture.
In the meantime THE CWrc, which
has no sins to answer for in any of
these respects, will continue to pursue
the same viruous aud independent
course which it marked out for itself at
the start. We can't have the loftiest
tragedy, or the gcnteclcst comedy, or the
grandest of opera, or the best of actors
and singers all the time There are de-
grees of rational entertainment which
the severest censor is bound to tolerate
so long as the circus, minstrel show
and pantominc retain their popularity,
and which are not to be taboocl simply
because they are further down the
classic scale

TIE election in Ohio comes off to-
morrow. The vigor of the campaign
is only cqualed by the robustness with
which each party claims that it will
carry the State The result will de-
pend practically upon the strength
which Dr. Leonard, the Prohibitionist
candidate, may develop, lie has been
no less active than Judge Foraker and
Governor IIoadly, and it looks as if he
would have large vote. As his sup
port will come principally from the Re.
publicans, the Democratic claim that
their ticket will be elected seems to
have more foundation than the coun-
ter claim Of the Republicans. No mat
ter which way the State goes the
Union will not be icopardized.

PHILADELPHIA. Sept. Stu review OF
the business situation, Manager swank,
general manager of the American Iron
Steel Association, says: "on July Isl, at
the beginning OF the second half OF the
present year, we wero compelled to say
that the depression Of business in this
country then showed no signs OF disap.
pearing. Two months have since passed,
and now, at the beginning OF September,
we arc gratifed in being able ~ gay that
the tide has at last turned, and that gem
cral business is surely improving from
day to day.
Inero il a more hopeful feeling in bust.
meas circles in all large manufacturing and
business centcrs. Tho demand for manu-
featured products has very psrceptlbly
ouickened, and in some lines prices have
slightly advanced. The feeling OF conf.
dence, that did not exist two months ago,
and which is now everywhere visible,
can be directly traced TO the Increased
business which these two months have
brought. II wo attempt TO discover the
influences which have created the In
creased demand for manufactured products
we will all probably agree that a lesding
influence is the better feeling that exists
In railroad cirCles. 1t is true that the
trunk line difficulties have not yet been
fully settled, but they are in Course Of set
Element, and that IL q great point gained.
II the managers Of these lines had main.
tained remunerative rates tor fteights and
passengers during the past twoyears, gen
eral business could not have been es
greatly depressed as 1t has been."
