RACING EAST AND VEST.

In some previous years the West has ventured
to dispute although in timid and uncertain
way, the supremacy of the East in thoroughbred
| racing. But this year even the most ardent
paltisans of the Western courses must admit
that there is no serious rivalry possible. The
number Of organizations On the other side of the
Alleghanes IS large, and the racing, which be-
gins at New Orleans in the winter is carried on
without break or breathing space at Memphis,
Nashville, Lexington, Louisville, LatOnia, st.
Louis, Kansas City and Chicago, while st.
Paul and Minneapolis are soon TO put in their
claims. Many hundreds Of horses are in train
ing that never visit the Eastern tracks. The
Western clubs as a rule, are not troubled by a
scarcity of animals to compete for their stakes
or purses, but with a few notable exceptions the
entries ale sadly lacking in quality. No doubt
Spokane is an excellent colt, although the
shrewdeSt turfmen in the country doubt if he is
superior to one or two of his age in the East
Proctor Knott showed marvellous speed last
year. but this season his laurelS are dragged in
the dust Terra Gotta is handicap horse of
high class FL Rio Rey is twO-year-Old of
promise Other Western horses of merit mi ght
be named. But only the East can show such
an array Of thoroughbredS as Frenz, Raceland,
Hanover Kingston, Prince Royal, Gorgo, Sal
vator, the Faverdale colt Pontiac, Britannia,
FideS St. Carlo, Torso and the long list Of re-
nowned winners that has marked the records
Of this year.
In value and importance of rewards for racing
the East also far exceeds the West The rich
est prize offered in any part of the country eX-
cept that within fifty miles of our City Hall is
the American Derby at Chicago. That is less
than $50, 900 The Lorilard and Omnibus
Stakes and the Junior Champion at Monmouth,
the Great American Stakes at GraveSend and
the Eclipse Stakes at the new Morris Park.
equal or exceed the total of Chicago's Derby,
while the Realization at ShecpShead Bay is
twice as valuable and the Futurity this year
will be worth thrice as much This is the day
of big things on the Eastern turf, and the West
must be content with the crumbs that fall from
the Eastern table. The most popular Of all
American races the one which eXciteS the most
eager anticipation, the one which is most talked
about wherever in the United States little
knot of tufmen may gather, is the Suburban
Handicap at Sheepshead Bay.
But although the Suburban Of 1889 has been
run and been added to the records, the best of
tho years racing is yet to come. Tomorrow
the Realization will be run, and every owner
who dreams that he has chance Of carrying off
the 81 0, 900 prize will send representative to
the post. 1t is now likely however, that the
Brookdale Stable will not be represented The

absence Of Mr.. Witherss fine Faverdale colt will
be regretted by every admirer of racing, but his
owner does not think the colt now fit for so
severe a race Yet with Salvador, Tenney, Re-
porter Eric and a number of other well-known
three ods to start, race of remarkable in
terest is assured.
On Thursday Monmouth Park will open its
gates. and Firenzi, Raceland and Kingston may
meet in the Ocean Stakes on the first day.
What race the three would make! And each
of them would have an army OF partisans who
could not he convinced until after the struggle
was over that their favorite could be beaten.
For six weeks the sport will be continued al
Monmouth and then the scene will shift to
Morris Park, the superb new track laid out by
John A. Morris at Westchester, which VIII
have so many attractions and advantages, in
GLIDING its magnificent stIaightaway courses
that II cannot fail TO be popular. In September
racegocrs will return to Sheepsbead Bay to see
the famous Futurity decided Later will come
the meetings at Gravesend and Jerome Park
and after tie middle of October the new tracks
in New-Jersey, upon which the work of elabo-
rate preparation is now in progress, Will be the
fields of activity for horses and men.
A word of advice then to Western turfmen
Come East if you wish to enjoy life.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1889-07-01

Indian morals are bad, especially those relating
| to marriage and divorce. Inability to read and
write is not uncommon among them. The laws
to which the majority of them have respect are
not the laws of New York which the rest OF
the people Of the State are compelled to obey.
The counties which they draw from the State
or the cation end the rents which they receive
from leased lands are their main sources OF
income Such is the substance of the reports
This showing looks much like an Indictment
of the craftsmanship. if not of the Christian
! ity, of New-York. There are some 5000 men,
women and children on these reservations, and
| IL is clear from the account which the reports
give that large part of them are living In
state of heathenism-that in spite OF the en-
| lightenment by which they are surrounded they
are barbarians What can be done to improve
their condition? As a result of their own study
of the Indian problem, fortified by the judg-
| ment of several prominent men who have been
brought into close relations with the Indians,
the committee recommends that their tribal re-
lations be broken up, in order that they may
be compelled to assume the duties and respon-
siblities of citizenship, and that their lands be
divided in severalty. 1t is evident that these
are wise suggestions. In letter to the COM
mittee Bishop Huntington, of Syracuse, who
has had more or less intercourse with the Onon-
dagas for twenty years, writes:
The present tribal arrangement is a fatal bar to
real progress and utterly destructive of anything that
deserves 10 be called civilization. 1t discourages IN
dusry It lowers selfrespect 1t shelters laziness, 1t
destroys all wholesome stimulus 10 thrift and economy
You Will permit TO express my deep conviction that
the remedy for these is 10 be sought In an
equitable division of the territory into homeseads and
the lifting of the Indians to citizenship
The reports were not acted upon by the last
Legislature. = It is to be hoped that the next
one will take them up in good earnest and con-
struct an Indian policy which shall prove of
real practical service to these wards of the
State. New-York has for years pursued do
nothing Indian policy, and the result is con-
dition of things which is anything but credit
able to a Christian community.

THE ARISE OF BLASTING.

Unless some effective measures are taken to
check the nuisance and danger of reckless blast
ing in and about this city, it is highly probable
that it will produce an injurious effect upon the
real estate business. Few people care to buy
lawsuits, under any circumstances, but the
purchase of house which forms part Of an I'M
finished row in rocky ground at present en-
counters not only that, but other and more
serious risks Only the other day a substantial
brownstone house was literally wrecked by a
careless blast in the adjoining lot, and judging
from the published reports the building will
have to be almost entirely reconstructed at an
expense not much below that of new house.
Scarcely day passes without records of sim
liar, if less disastrous, explosions. All kinds Of
valuable property have been destroyed or seri-
ouSly damaged by these reckless blasts, and
occasionally some one is knocked on the head,
or has an arm or leg broken, by the falling
fragments of rock which are hurled far and
near. There is no city in the world, perhaps,
outside of New York, where this kind of out
rage would be submitted to for a single week;
but here it is allowed to 60 on year after year.
and the only practical recourse the injured have
is to the courts, where litigation may be both
tedious, costly and unsatisfactory.
In spite of the apathy of the public people
who contemplate the purchase of houses must
in time come to take into account this new and
grave risk, which will affect their plans and
purposes. Even assurance of prompt and full
compensation could not reconcile many people
to a state of things which makes life in certain
parts of Newly ork resemble residence near a
battlefield or a volcano in active operation.
Nobody likes to have to face the possibility of
destructive explosions, which may have even
fatal effect upon .invaids and delicate women
and children, and at the best are liable to ruin
property which cannot be replaced. In short,
the baibarism and criminal reckleSsness which
are at the bottom of this nuisance are certain
to react upon the city that tolerateS them, and
if nothing is done to put stop to careless blast
ing, those who now view the situation with the
utmost indifference may be made to suffer
through their pockets pretty smartly.

American system of municipal government and

it is not of such nature that our japanese friends
