MANLOvE RODE THREE WINNERS
Three Of the Five Events at the Alexander
Island Track We're Captured by First
Choices in the Betting-Flnishes in the
Second and Fourth We're Exciting.

Three favorites won at the Island track yester-
day and as result the major portion of the tai
ent scored a winning on the day. There were
some, how ever who did not do so well owing to
following a wild-eyed tip on Meadows to win the
third race Where the tip originated it would
be hard to say as Mike DAILY, the horses owner,
was not at the track. The people, however,
played Meadows down from 4 to to !, and their
money remained with the bookmakers, as Elm
stone won in canter from Sonora, with Mead
ows Just getting third place by short head
from Mollie Penny
In the opening race Criterion was the good
thing and the layers of odds never offered better
than to 5, the closing quotation being to 10,
and the latter proved liberal price considering
the easy manner in which Criterion galloped
away from his field. Cloverdale secured the
place easily, while Minden had hard work to
beat the Haytienne gelding out for third
Lyceum was a to 10 favorite for the second,
with imported Nora next in demand Pink II:
and Dr. Helmuth did all the leading until well
into the stretch, when Lyceum joined issue, and
the three had hot brush 10 the wire, DIR. Hell
muth winning by head, with Lyceum a nose
before Pink H. Red Elm was the favorite Tor
the fourth, with Major Hughes "a strong second
choice. The latter looked all over n winner
bounding into the stretch, but Manloye rode Red
Elm hard and the old campaigner won by
head in a drive.

Populists Moving in naryIand.

The following letter from Gainesville,
shows that the movement is taking hold
of the people in this State, and the pros
pect is that candidate for Congress will
be placed in nomination ON the populist
ticket in every district in Maryland
except in the city of Baltimore, where the
Rasin city bosses worked law through
the legislature which makes it next to
impossible for new party ticket to get a
place on the ballot. The law is infamous
and is next thing to DISTINGUISHING law
for all who are opposed to the old corrupt
parties.

Dear Sir:-Catonsville and viuinity contains
about from 60 to $50 Popusts and think this

in Gainesville alone, and there are nodoubt many
more here who will vote with us, as well as in
other sections of this congressional district
(the Fifth.
What we want is a convention and candidates
elected in the regular and proper manner to rep
resent us at the coming elections. There quite
number of voters here who have expressed u
determination to not vote at all if ticket is not
put in the field and myself can see no better time
for showing our strength than at present.
We wish to organize and have delegates to rep
resent us in the nominating convention and we
want an organizer or someone competent to come
here and give us a start.
Please let me hear from you at your earliest
convenience and greatly oblige,

each other. A convention or "mass
