The free for all pacing for a purse of
$1,000 set for Friday, Aug. %, did not fill,
Turk Franklin, owned by G. H. Mcleod, of
Missoula, being the only entry. Aside from
tAeso 1dSG claSs6S named above, entries to
which are closed, tbs state fair board in
tend to offer purses for slower horses, en-
tries to close after the Butte meeting,
That there are not rs many entries his
year as last for the Helena events is due to
erroneous reports which we're circulated in
the south and west, and to provincial ieal-
ousy. Marcus DAILY. it is reported on OK
cellent authority, gave out in the south and
west that he had taken his horses away
from the state because the Anaconda races
were off, and there would be nothing to
run for" This was used to the disadvant-
age OF the Helena races. despite the fact
that the association hers was in existence
twenty years before Anaconda was heard of.
1t influenced a great many California and
Colorado owners to keep their horses away.
Then again the Oregon people we're a little
Jealous of the growing importance of the
Montana circuit. Some California horse
men got as far as Portland and were per
suaded not to come this way ON false repre-
sensations about the climate. Another
thing which had its effect Was that w. A.
Clark skips this meeting altogether with
his string of six or eight t~rotters. He On
ters his horses at Butte, and after that
meeting leaves the circuit. In spite of
these drawbacks Helena intends to nave a
big race meeting, and show the county
that it is rossible to get along with stables
which still holds fast to the queen city.
Another Montana Wfnner.
