RACETRACKs-THE GREAT SUCCESS OF
THE HORSE SHOW
Racing pantatas beginning to realize that the
situation IS extremely dangerous for the turf Be
fore the election some of them declared that the
constitutional amendments would be defeated by at
least 10000 votes. Now they console themselves by
saying that the citizens up the State did not know
what they were voting for As for this citys show
ing on the antl-gambling amendment. they have
little to say Every intelligent interested In the
turf as a sport attributes the uprising as rebuke
TO men who trarped the rights Of the public.
who ignored the press and catered wholly TO the
gambling element. and sought only money that could
be obtained from the bettng-rngs.
With the fate of racing in the balance the very
worst element on the turf threaten to begin racing
on January l. Perhaps they depend upon the col
fusion Of officials who Will not. enforce the Penal
Code clauses that refer to racing. When men VINO
have shocked the public 10y their methods and, IN
stead of praise brought down the condemnation OF
every respectable person racing boldly proclaim:
I'VE will begin to January /. and If We are
suppressed will take good care that the big as
sociatlons will race 1t is high time that the
curb put the thugs who have openly deiled
the Jockey Club ana every other governing body
the turf.
To be sure the thugs maintain that the only e.
forts made at reform on the turf last season were
made at Brighton Beach and Ocean Parkway.
Moreover. the outlaw element contend thai II there
was one man In whom confidence could be placed
and who would enforce the turf laws without fear
or favor some attention would be paid to the edic's
OF the Jockey Club. There t. some truth In wha'
the outlaws claim. What punished al brighton
