Programme for the Grand Circuit Meeting 6
Fleetwood.


Fleetwood.
The New York Driving Club will to-day inau-
gurate the final meeting OF the Grand Circuit
OF 1897, which In many respects has been the
most remarkable and unquestionably the most
successful since the organization OF this famous
chain Of race meetings. The rich purses which
were offered early In the season attracted the
entries of nearly all of the great racers which
have shared In the--grand contests Of the past
two months. and with hardly an ..exception all
of the stars OF the harness horse world will DO
on hand to participate in what will probably DO
the last meeting over tho famous Fleetwood
track. There is some cause for regret In the
fact that none of the kingpin racers will DO on
hand: but aside from this the flve-day pro-
gramme will furnish a racing feast such as the
metropolis has never heretofore enjoyed, and a
fitting finale to the glorious history Of the once

an open book-once read, we may |
view and review it to our profit, |
and yet, perhaps, to onr sorrow.
We believe, by this time, maj
GRITTY of our people wish it were
not so. At least, if not now, the
time is near at hand when that
will be their wish. 1t is very
hard for some people to leave
old parties, old ties, no matter
how great they see the necessity.
1t is easier to still travel on with
those who have heretofore journ-
led with us than it is to go forth
with new companions, although
we may be convinced that the
new friendship, when once form
ed, wonld be tho dearest, the
nearest. We are all weak in that
line-and therefore, many times
comes our deepest woe.
The Democracy, with q few
exceptions rallied, in our last
campaign, for the true theory
ami joined hands with those who
had broken away from the cor
ruption and brutal greed of the
old parties; and choose, as by
some Superior direction, lead
err, whom no greater and better
ever graced our American soil,
and took the field with brave
hearts and steady purpose to
join all forces for greater pros
perity--not for the few with I'M
limited wealth but for the seven
ty millions of citizens who are
now toiling, not that the less
number may be still weather.,
whilest tho one of toll would
grow weaker, poorer, from his
exertions.
They selected O man from the
East of great means, thoroughly
associated with ths powers of
wealth, but nevertheless, whom
we believe was right, at heart,
for the needed reforms in our
country, for the second place.
Perhaps this was done as q
matter of policy. to acquire tie
sinews of war. These, in this
age, and in our country, are nee
essary. The question only is, in
wnom shall we trust /? Where
shall we get this strength I'm
another article we will give more
fully our views on this point.
The Populists, tho natural allies
of the Democracy, also met in
National convention and endors-
ed the great leader whom the
Democracy, by some mysterious
stroke of good sense, adopted as
their leader; but they asked that
the Democrats should endorse on
the second place, a man of their
choice. This the Democracy re-
fused. 1t is true, whenever Mr..
Bryan spoke at all on the merits
of the parties, he gave the great
er credit to the Peoples party.
He could not say who should

The Future.
Having had the experience of
the past and being weighted with
the sorrows of the present, we
turn our attention to philoso-
phise upon the future, and to see
if there is no remedy for the
American people. 1t is too plain
that for many years the domin-
ant parties made secondary
everything but the standards OF
money. True it is that they
would be loud and present front
of wonderous display on the
question of tariff and make q
furious neutrality-suspicious.
that matter-never forgetting on
either side to have q candidate
for all the highest positions in
entire harmony with gold
standard.
This kept the wealthiest class
in power and money in control of
stored wealth-ill to toll and tn e
poor. Conscientious men, who
looked to justice in all things,
and men of generous hearts
whose sympathies always go out
; for the struggling Industrious
and the poor, rebelled against
the tyranny this practice was
exercising over mankind. They
left the old ranks and formed a
new body, or, perhaps, better
put, new bodies. Like all new
organizations there was lack of
! system, lack of discipline, which
always means want of force-but
it was moulding better, day by
day, and began to give alarm tc
the fossilized power that had Sc
long held it's greedy sway. Boil
