little tenderness, but it is confidently
hoped that time, the great restOrer, will
drive away all soreness.
Among the sires Electioneer is very
easy first, and is making rapid strides
toward the head of the list. No less
than six Of his get have already been
credited to him in 1888. These access
sions cause him to pass Volunteer, and
be close on the heels of Almont and
Daniel Lambert, each of whom he will,
probably, give the go-by before the
season ends. Blue Bull, George Wilkes,
Happy Medium, and Rysdyk's Hamble-
tonlan are yet long way in advance of
him. Red Wilkes, with three new
corners, ranks second to ElectiOneer this
season, and Princess and Egbert are the
only others credited with more than
one.
In the history of racing in America
there has never been stable of good
horses that proved so utterly helpless
and unable to win races as the Eastern
division of j. b. Haggin's stable. Sick
ness and ill-luck have been in constant
attendance. His forfeit list alone would
bankrupt the majority of owners. MIR.
Haggin'S horses now arriving in the
East from the uWest nand South will
probably materially change the aspect
of affairs and reduce the amount of the
forfeit list.

ing does not add one dollar to the in
trinsic merits of the horse.
