THE HARNESS BRIGADE.
Trotters and PAGERS and What They
Are Doing.

The dash system of trotting, introduced
for the first time in this country at the
breeders meeting at the Bay District, was
a success. All those who attended the
races appreciated them, but the mistake
of not chasing the horses was made.
Horses who outclassed the others by sew
eral seconds were not handicapped as pro-
posed, and as a consequence the dashes
were lODsided.
This failure to class the horses was
made in many of the heat races, and they
also became so one-sided that they in no
way savOred of racing. Exciting finishes
are what the public wants, and no one
ex ects it to attend race meetings where
they cannot be had. The Paris-mutual
system of betting proved drawback to
the success Of the meeting. In the first
place, the system is bad, but to make it
worse horses, instead of being sold out,
were coupled in field.
In most cases three horses would be sold
out, and the others sold as field Now.
suppose there were three in the field, and
a person thought one would win. He
bought a pool on the field. Now, the
horse he selected won the race. He would
not win what his judgment entitled him
to, for he money is divided between the
holders of field tickets. Consequently
men who fancied other horses in the field
and bought field tickets won jast as much
as he who picked the winner

Captain B. E. Harris, who acted as
starter of the trotting races at the Bay
District says that it would be good thing
for racing if the track was cut up into lots
and sold, as horsemen would then be CON-
