GOSSIP OF THE TURF.

The Latonia Derby will be run at the
Cincinnati racecourse on Monday, May &C.
The Derby was first run In 1888, when
Leonatus won ii. II has never been a
success from racing standpoint. Only
once has the field numbered more than
six horses. In 1900 Lieutenant Gibson
had a walkover for the race: in 1892 only
two horses started. and on several occa-
sions but three horses went to the post.
Nevertheless some good horses have won
the Ohio classic. In 1883 Los Angeles
and White ran a dead heat, and the mare
won the run off. Isaac Murphy. the
colored rider. won the Derby five times.
This year the Derby promises to result
in better race than ever before. so far
as number OF starters is concerned. The
field will probably include Abe Frank.
South Trimble, Inventor. Commissioner
Forster. Jack Ratlin. The Common. Harry
New and J. w. Rhodes. Abe Frank will
likely be the favorite at post time.
George C. Bennett, the owner of Abe
Frank. declares that his faith in the
three year-old is still mistaken. He says
the horse was short when he started in
the Derby. having been let up in his train
ing on account of a sore mouth. Mr..
Bennett believes his colt Will strip q
good horse in the American Derby, and
that he Will about win 1t.

old, is not roarer. as has been stated. but
he is not making very great progress in

DR.. Milburn was accompanied by his
niece, who usually escorts him to and

Cairo apartment house. They had left
the Capitol building and were standing
under the Senate steps in the carriage

The herdic cab. in which DR.. Milburn
was to return home. drove under the
archway. and he was about to step into
the door in the rear. A horse attached to
another carriage was standing at the
other end of the tunnel. and was fright

automobile. The animal reared and
plunged into the passage and collided
with the herdic horse. forcing the latter
backward sharply before either could be
restrained.

PRESIDENT ROOSEvELT'S TASK.

We much fear that there is trouble in store for President Roosevelttrouble that will be brewed for him, not by the people, but by their masters the politicians For it seems to have come to pass that the people are not powerful the politicians.
 the political leaders-who fabrieate the policies of the political parties. It is true that the nomination of Roosevelt for the vice presidency was not sought by him, but it desired by the political leaders Of his party, who astutely reasoned that the election of Roosevelt to the vice presidency was, according to precedent, tantamount to eliminating parsonage, though strong and forcea from the realm of politic- perhaps for all time. An accident which one could
 orsee elevated him to the chair of the chief execu- tive, and now that he occupies the place that the politicians never dreamed he would reach, it is small wonder that he is thorn in their sides, and their brows are furrowed with
 Unless we are grievously mistaken the politicians will never bend Roosevelt to their will but they may break him, and again unless we have misjudged him he is made of that kind of stuff that would prefer to be broken rather than stulty himself, to himself by yielding to the political thumbscrews which far sighted politicians know but too well how to use.
 President Roosevelt is political iconoclast; al ready he has shown that he does not propose to be circumscribed and hedged about by old customs traditions; he is not sposman and practical pol itics spells for the victors and if they not to be had the howl of the spoer is instantly raised in the land. Roosevelt has stood all his life for purity of politics and for civil service reform, that is he strongly endorses the merit system, something that no "practical politician" can think of without becoming nauseated. Roosevelt may be, perhaps, trfe too obstnate too set in his ways but that he is man of the most independent stamp of character no one-not even his btterest political cl.emies-can successfully deny. That the path he has blazed for himself will not be strewn with is evident but that he will follow it to its end will scarcely be doubted That he will give the country an honest and efficient administration is equally certain and that he will emerge from the battle with the political bosses of his party, victorious and more strongly trenched in the hearts and minds of the American people. than ever before sincerely trust, for his triumph the elevation of government, and the puritication of political atmosphere that is nearly always murky

IN MEMORY or PRESIDENT M'kINLEY.

The people of the United States propose to honor the memory of President Mckinley. To this end memorial arch will be erected in Washington through popular subscription. It is believed that the people of this country desire to contribute to suitable na tonal memorial in the national capital in honor of the martyred president.
 This is matter in which the people of Alaska should oin it seems to us It will not be necessary to make large contributions. It is the spirit winch prompts the gift, be 1t so small, that counts. Alaskans essentially loyal and patrioic and it is proper that their mites should be added to the tributions from other and territories In fact it should be esteemed privilege to do go. Because we are so far removed from Washington that should make no difference in the readiness with which we should respond to the invitation identify ourselves with this worthy object in loving remembrance of a worthy president and good and upright citizen. From circular recently issued it is learned that contributors to the fund will be made members of the William Mckinley National Memorial Arch Associa- tion. The treasurer of the Association is Hon. Lyman ]. Gage and contributions of money may be handed to postmasters, banks other financial institutions, and newspapers They authorized and requested receive and transmit contributions 10 the The association heartily invites and confidently ex- poets the cooperation of the governors of states and territories, the mayors of cities and all other public officials of the press of the country of the churches and schools and of all the organized societies. and requests that they will take immediate action to pro mote its objects by making and securing subscrip- tions. Therefore if we can do but little, let us show that all right by doing it. He gives twice who gives quickly.
