The RAPID Improvement made in pro-
icing the trotter during the last 80 years
finds no parallel in the history of breed
ing science. says the current Horseman
The lofty point of excellence reached in
this the second year of the last dec ade of
the century was beyord the vision even
of the dreamers of 10 years ago. The
long reign of Maud s. demonstrates the
greatness of her performance OF six years
ago. The feat that defied improve
ment in blood, in tracks and in training
for six years was mighty one, and it
adds all the more glory to the one that
surpassed it. Only five years ago the
first three-year old stallion. Patron,
crossed the 2:20 line. but while he was
sill young horse. Axtell. at the same
age, trotted in 2:l2. Four years ago 2:lS
was the champion mark for three-year
ODDS, but in two see sons it was reduce
to 2:l0t. Attic close of 1889, 2:16 was
the four year old record. but when the
autumn leaves OF 1890 fell, the
mark was down to 2;l03. For eight
years the five-year old record made by
Jay EYe,See stood ubeaten. bu. today we
have one five-yesr- old with a record of
2:0SS. another with a record of 200 and
another with a record of 2:0i9 From
1884 to 1889 the stallion record stood at
2:134 In 1899 It was reduced to 2:l2,
and now we hsve these stallion records
all below the champion marx of only two
years sgo-Allerton, 2 och; Nelson, 2:10;
Pslo Alto. 2:10; Stsmboul, ell, ana Del
march, 2:1'2. From 1887 until 1890 the
yearling record stood at Ash. then it
dropped to 2;293 and now it is 2:26!.
From 1881 to 1888 the two year old re-
cord was 2:21. In the latter year it was
cut to 2:lS. but now, 10 years after the
triumph of Wild1ower. Arlon reduces the
mark of her successor to 2:14I.
These figures are the landmarks of pro-
klCes
leled in breeding for speed. But the
most wonderful performance of all. great.
er than the all aged and three-yesr old
records Of Sunol, the stallion record of
Allerton, or the five>year old record of
Nancy Hanks, is that dszz ing mile of the
two-year old stallion Arion. when he
trotted the Stockton track in 2:1iI, only
one half a second beyond the alleged
stallion record Of Maxey Cobb, that de-
e I'd the assaults of all corners for five
years. We do not believe that any rec
ord now on the books is invincible; we
recognize that the progress of the past is
but an earnest OF the progress of the
coming years. but we shall expect to see
the two-year old record. 2:142. and the
three-year.old record. 2:103. endure Ion
ger than any other OF the present cham
pion figures. and the former seems GER
tsinly the more nearly invincib,e of the
two.

SHORT STOPS.

What the People are soying.
The people are opening their eyes.
The statement In the official organ,
that the SO called equalization board
has raised the assessment of property
from nty-one millions to twenty
seven millions and q half Is alarm
ing.
The exact figures as given by As
SCISSOR Frasch are: for 1889, $2l $3.50, 4S5;
for 1890, S27, 5l0,S45.
This has been done in order to OBJ
tain larger revenue to carry on the
ordinary expense of the city govern
ment.
Last year the receipts were $25S, $40,
this year at a rate of 81 per 500 1t will
be over $275,0O0.
Extravaganza and waste is running
riot in our city affairs.
The people have no time to inves-
tigate or means of judging the merits
of the city financial question, but the
weight of taxation is becoming
burdensome.
Our bonded debt has increased at q
giants speed; during 'SS, 'S9 and 100,
$745, coo were issued, bearing an an
nual interest of S3S, $50.
What has become of all this money?
Add the amount paid In taxes and
the amount swells to nearly one and
half millions of dollars which the
present city administration has ex-
pended.
What have we got for it? Ask the
people.
Look about; few blocks of block
pavement; 16 miles of so.called ma
cademized streets, which, according
to the engineers estimate, should
have cost $4,000 per mile or $50, 900;
other miles of streets torn up but no
hope of completion, as the money is
all gone intended for that purpose.
Notwithstanding the raising of our
assessment over six millions, more
bonds will be required, and our city
has not made genuine beginning
with its city improvements.
Why are the people determined to
change our city administration?
=.
First, because the present admins
tratiOn has become q one-man affair.
Second, because the affairs of the
city are carried on in the dark.
Third, because they are alarmed
| over the extravaganza and reckless
character of the present city govern
ment.
Fourth, because they have in
| Cured a heavy bonded debt, and
paid out large sum annually, simply
to feed the political favorites and
hangers-on of the administration.
Fifth, because a free, intelligent
community will not stand and tamely
submit to have their pockets rified by
political banditti.
X
Sixth, that the people want our city
to prosper and every intelligent man
knows that safe, progressive
business management of our munich
pal affairs Is the first requisite.
4
The people may not be able to
secure the candidacy of one of our
local Croesus to run for mayor.
\
These men are wrapt up in public
schemes and they fear the opposition
| of the boss.
The people only require that their
candidate be clean, honest, capable
gentleman.

THE BIBLE 4 DIVINE WITNESS FOR CHRIST.

The Rev. Dr. Joseph Il. Kerr preached an Interesting
sermon yesterday morning at the Fourth Presbyterian
Church. in West Thirty -fonrtl-st, OH Tie Bible as
Divine Witness for Christi 1t strong defence
of the Bible the supreme authority Of the Christian
religion. 1t is not dead testimony or dry, for
nal, literal record" said Dr. Kerr The Hebrew
Bible was living book, and has to this day spirit
that quckens. It's syllabes cover an inhnitlde OF
meaning which Is uneXlausted by scholars and com
mentators and which possess marvellous capacity
for translation into any dialect which has living and
human quality All the collateral details are mys-
terously assmilaed into organism with vital en-
ergy evidently supcrlumsn The real question for you
and me is the personal dscernment and experience Of
this energy in leading TO salvation by Christ There
are many subsidiary questions which may be left 10 the
schoomen, questions which do not concern the common
mind at ALL which it has neither training time to
deal with They are not the vital questions; they
not the one thing needfl and to lose sight Of IL by
botherng with them is to pay price which may mean
spiritual bankruptcy.
"It is true that the credibty Of testimony consti-
tutes It's worth. If testimony be suspected II upon
crossexamnaion it appears to break down, then the
reason is warranted at least, in hesitatng, in waiting
for something consistent and reliable and here
Is where much modern Biblical criticism is at fault.
Not that IL should - prosecute its investigations
and engage in the pr0f0dnueSt research, but that IL
should so ventilate It's incomplete ana IN some
unproven discoveries leave the impression upon
tho common mind that sometning Is radically w.Jng
with the Book. | say the impression, fer | believe
that IN many it is only that, and the SCHOLARS
may assert that they not responsible for the impress
sion made by their digging and comparing, but savors
either Of incOnsideTaeltss rechiessness ethg of
which IS to be deprecated, both OF which should not
expect cordial following from those whose caution is
something more than mere prejudice"
