THE RACE TRACK WAR.

There is nothing new in the Alexan-
der Island race track injunction mat
ter and affairs at that track will 60 on
as usual, at any rate until the 23d
when the matter will again come be-
fore Judge Wexford at Richmond.
1t is announced that both sides are
preparing for big fight when the in
junction comes up for argument, but
the race track officials are confident of
victory in view of the fact that the
point has already been decided in their
favor by Judge Keith, now president of
the Virginia Court OF Appeals.
The Commonwealth position is that
the racing, pool selling, etc, carried on
at Alexander Island constitutes public
nuisance, and is destructive of morals
and a burden upon the people of Alex
andria county; that the place is pest
hole, and that the crowd collected is a
rabble; also that the association under
the guise of charter to promote agri-
culture, care for, and protectits members
in time of sickness and distress, and
nurture their widows and orphans, ETC.,
has misused and diverted the charter
to purely gambling purposes and the
individual aggrandizement of its men,
bers. The commonwealth has also fiji
ell exhibits to show that the corporation
was defunct until it was revived by the
present owners of the charter for gamb
ling purposes.
The defendants contend that every
thing they do is permitted by their
charter; that the practices they engage
in ard which are allowed by the
Mushbach bill are no more to be object
ed to than what occurs daily at the
Alexandria Driving Park, against
which no complaint has been made.
The defendants further claim that the
Commonwealth is being used to crafty
personal ends and in the interest of a
rival corporation of like nature, and
their counsel ask the Commonwealth
to say who moving in the matter.
The present proceedings on the part
of the Commonwealth are ancillary to
quo warlanto proceedings claiming for
feiture OF charter.
