VAIL ON DHoK AGAIN.
A Crisis in the Affairs of the Ma
ton al Trotting Association.

A Crisis in the Affairs or the Ma.
tional Trotting Association.
Next Wednesday the biennial con-
gress of the National Trotting associa-
ton will be held at Buffalso. The roll
of membership includes 3lS,asseciations
and individual lessees, the majority Of
whom will he represented by proxies.
A crisis has again arisen in the affairs
of the National Trotting association,
says the HorSeman, although the ma
jOrity of the committee on rules appear
not to think so. Since Mr.. Vail's re-
moval from the Office of secretary he
has made persistent efforts to again be-
come7identified in some way with the
association. An effort was made dur
ing the convention held in Chicago to
secure his appointment as solicitor for
members. Happily this proposition
was throttled at its birth. Mr.. Vail
was present with his pockets full of
proxies, and will likely bob up serenely
next week similarly armed. Under the
wise and upright administration of
Secretary Morse, the National TrOtting
association gathered strength, despite
the existence of pOwerft rival Organi-
cation. The roll of membership OF the
National Trotting association is at pres
ent larger than ever before. That this
Is due to the fact of Mr.. Vail having no
voice in its affairs is beyond question.
President Johnson's appointment of the
ex-secretary on the committee on rules
was done with the best of motives, but
that it was impolitic is patent. The
National Trotting association cannot af-
ford to jeopardize It's interests, and the
formal. reinstatement of Vail as ali Off
Ger of, the organization will sow the
seeds of secession. go.
