Glaring Failure.

of the past aud everybody is glad it is
owe. With. While was and immense
amount of kicking on ali sides no
serious dissgreements resulted, bu:
some resulted, but some of the visitors
are very sore over what they term bad
treatment. Columbia won most of the
money, and it must be remembered
that only enc Columbiss was among
the judges. hence it can hardly be
charged that any partialisy was shown
the home teams. They Won under the
same conditions others did and, thought
there we're great many aggravatiog
circumstances about the races, all had
to submit to them.
II seems to be admitted thst there
was some sharp practice on all aides
aud everybody watched everybody else
like hawk about to swoop down upon
q sparrow. All the little tricks Of
such rsces we're tried by visitors as
we'll as home people, and SO far Is the
actual races ere concerned it is hard to
see Why visitors had any more reason
to kick than anybody else. The Col
umbia team, among the home teams.
believed that they we're not properly
treated. and hence they did not take
the same interest ia the races that the
other companies did.
As already stated, visitors received
ss fair treatmen. as snybody else. A
great deal of the dissatisfaction. no
doubt, arises from the miserable lack Of
orgsnization in the conduct OF the
races. 1t csnnot be denied that 10 this
respect the tournament was glariog

positively what should be done. This
caused delays and dissatisfaction. bat
