LEANDER VS.. BUTLER
AN EARLY START AND A LONG
PROGRAM.
Unusually Large Number of Amateu,
Entries-Fine Weather for Fast
Motor Work.

No greater card than that slated for to-
nights grand program will be pulled off
at the Coliseum, 14th and East Capitol
streets, this season. Manager Osgood has
shown unusual discretion in the selection
of his events and a result has framed
up quartet of the best races that will be
run over any disk this season. The events
include two professional and two amateur
races, with entries in each so well bal
anced as to give the best possible kind of
racing. The talent assert for tonghts card
the very best racing that has been slated
on any track in the country during the
present season and there is no reason to
doubt the general verdict.
Aside from the featurable card, Manager
Osgood has determined to give the public
other things which failed to ma terialize at
the opening meet 1t was hardly to be eX
pected that with new management every
thing would be run off in a perfectly
smooth manner, and the wonder of the last
meet is that there were so few imperfec-
tionS. One defect, that of starting prompt
ly at S:15 O'Clock. will be the first thing
to meet the attention of Mr.. Osgood.
An Early Start.
The first scheduled race of the card will
leave the scratch as the hands of the Off
cial watch denote the hour for starting.
A second important feature of the game
that will receive Manager Osgood's atten-
ton will be the manner in which the diff
ferent events will be run off. 1t is his pur-
pose to have every succeeding event start
ed al least ten minutes after the previous
one is ended. If this is strictly adhered to
there will be none of those long waits be-
tween events which are the bugbear of an
enthusiasts life These little details add to
the attractiveness of big race meet and
relieve the spectators of diSagreeable mo-
ments while waiting for the conclusion Of
a program.
The stellar attraction of tonights race
meet is to be the motor-paced heat race
between George Leander, the giant Speeder
of Chicago. Leander has won his seasons
spurs from w. S. Fem, the midget nut
megger. on the Baltimore bowl last Thurs
day night in match race. The big fellow
gave Fem an awful beating, and is esti-
mated to be one of the fastest pace follow
ers on the tracks of the country today. In
that race he evidenced such marks of
championship form that c. Ross Kloster-
man, for whom he will ride this season, in
tends booking him to meet such men as
Mcfarland, Champion, Walthour and Stin-
son before the season has ended. Leander
has trained most conScientiouSy for the
seasons campaigning, and with the mas
Sive physique of which he is possessed and
his speeding qualities there Is limit to
his possibilities behind the rattlers. While
1t was expected that his first year out be-
hind the motors would find him a bit shy
on the fine points of the game, his studious
training and careful work have overcome
all obstacles and he is lacking onto the
real wheel like an old campaigner.

A RAlrEp Hook.

The idea advocated by the Flynnites
that statehood for Oklahoma with a
drag net to bring into her embrace
1.-THE Indian territory at solpe future
and more convenient time, is not only
foolish proposition bur Is an insult
to the thinking and inteulgent people
of that territory There ia not a
thoughtful sane and intelligent, patrl-
otic set Of people on the face Of the
earth that would accept such a con-
dition, and Flynn and his little band
of yelpers know this is true. 1t is
simply a bold and brazen effort by
them to defeat single statehood, for
they know that congress win never
confer statehood upon Oklahoma
alone without including the Indian
country and make one grand state Of
the Two.
Not only do they know this, but
they know that congress will never
insult the people of the Indian terri
tory by forcing them into statehood
with Oklahoma at a subsequent date
to the conferring Of that boon upon
Oklahoma and they know that in con
sequence of this fact their present
statehood bill will be defeated and
Oklahoma will remain a territory for
years to come for them to pick and
frazel as they have in the past. That's
the whole of it. Delegate Flynn will
then return home and hold up to the
people as he did in the free homes
fake, the superhuman efforts he
made in congress for statehood, and
if they would only send him back he
would bring home with him the golden
calf and along with it its mother also.
This is Flynn. He don't want state
hood at all, much less single state
hood made out of the two territories.
Every move he has made in the sec
ond session of the present congress,
like all his public acts In previous
congresses, have been with an eye
single to Flynn's political and per.
sonal interest. When he passed his
boasted free homes bill his eyes were
not shut to his future. He could have
Just as well included in his free homes
bill the Kiowa, Comancne and Arapa
hoe country, and the people Of those
could now be living up
on free homes, but no, there we're
other elections coming, and as he had
the people before he
would have free homes for these peo-
pie and honey-fugle them again and
sure enough he has taken the first
step to do so, and has introduced
caluse in bill now before congress
for that purpose. VIII anybody, Re
publican or Democrat. in the territory,

A RAILROAD MANS PRAYER.

Not long since an old railroad man
who drifted into church where a
revival service was going on, was
asked to lead in prayer. He said:
"Oh. Lord, now that l have

on the platform of the train Of
salvation. Let me use the safety
lamp known as prudence, make all
the couplings on the train with tie

THE ELECTRIC LINE.
Brookfield Raises 81 500 for the Railway
and Takes the Chances.
From the Brookfeld Argus.

From the Brookfeld Argus.
Brookfeld may have an electric
railway to st. Louis and again
may not. However, it looks as
though it was almost sure thing.
AS stated in the Argus last week a
committee was appointed to
solicit fifteen hundred dollars.
The amount was secured yesterday,
after having meeting Wednesday
night at which were present Mayor
Southworth of Glasgow, Geo. B.
Harrison, the Glasgow banker,
Colonel Chase, the promoter, and
his chief engineer. The surveying
corps is now at Rothville and will
reach Brookfield next week. When
the survey is finished at Brookfeld
the route from near St. Charles,
Mo-, a distance of about 140 miles,
will run through the prominent
towns of Columbia, Fulton, Fay
cite, Glasgow, keytesville, on to
Brookfeld via Rothville. 1t is
understood that one of the large
power houses will be at Brook field,
this city to furnish three acres of
ground for same.
AS soon as the State charter is
secured, Col. Chase will go to Bos-
ton, where he has promise from
investigators to finance the road to
the amount of about three million
dollars. He feels very confident
that he will have cars running by
the first of the year, but in case he
should fail, then the people in
lower counties, who are bankers
and prominent Missourians, includ-
ing Mr.. Harrison, State Treasurer
Williams, and others will 60 to
| New York, and with the assistance
of St. Louis capitalists, raise the
money for the bonds themselves
Brookfeld is taking chance, it
is true. In fact, about the only
real "sure things" in this life are
death and taxes, but Brookfelt
has number of citizens who believ,
in doing things, or at least il
irving to.
