FOR THE BIG RACE
Brooklyn Handicap viii Be Bun
Saturday.
The Talent Picks Either Her
b,rt or Advance Guard.

New York. May 23.-Since the great
Hanover won the first Brooklyn haudi-
cap in 1887 no such field of highly tried
and widely -'touted" aspirants has come
together as the one which will line UP
on tomorrow for the sixteenth renewal
of the classic race at Gravesend. OF
the probable starters four are three
year-olds, but it looks as if none of
them is likely to duplicate the feat of
COnroy who won last year, scoring the
first three-year-old triumph in Brook
lyn handicap.
A brief survey of the field brings one
to the conclusion that several of the
candidates must be excluded from the
probabilities on the basis of their un-
promising performances IN races this
season These are Perry Beimont's Fly
Wheel. J. E. Madden's Pentecost Al
cedO, the winner of last years SubuT-
ban, the F'leischmannS' Bonnibert and
J. G. FoIlandbee's Roehampton.
Monograph, a 4-year-oId owned by
William Hayes, a Kentuckian, will
carry only SO pounds and Travelled the
distance in 2:05A Wednesday, carrying
seven pounds more than his handicap
weight. Water Cure raced all winter in
California. Alcedo ran a bad race in
the Metropolitan. Oon Paul won the
Arverne stakes at Aqueduct from a fair
field, but Margravate and Colonel Pad
den beat him later in the Queen s COun-
ty stakes and he has not raced since.
Blues has appeared but once this year
and DR.. Riddle beat him at a mile and
a sixteenth at Morris Park
Between Advance Guard and Herbert
there is little to choose. Herbert ran
a fine race at the Metropolitan, finish
ing second to the lightly weighted Ar
senal. He has since worked the Brook
lyn handicap distance in most encOhr-
aging fashion. Advance Guard has run
several tip-top races at Morris Park.
Unless some of the dark horses develop
phenomenal speed and courage it is fair
to expect that Advance Guard and Her
bert will be fighting it out at the end.
If the track should be heavy Herbert's
chances will be improved
A list of the probable starters with
horse, weight and jockey follows:
AIcedo (125), Shaw.
Blues 624), J. Martin.
Herbert C121), Odom.

AT THE PLAY LAST NIGHT.

A fair sized audience waded to the
Crawford last night to see the Wilbur
Kirwin company in The Bohemian
Girl" The company got plenty of ap-
plause, but it was noticeable that any
little touch of comedy was hailed with
great delight Mr. Gill, the sDevilshoof''
of the opera, came out between acts
with Mr.. Reeder and Mr.. AIcGraw, and
the audience kept them busy singing
comic songs until the curtain rose

JUDGE POWERS SPEECH.

D ERHAPs THE MOST significant
utterance of the whole weeks pro-
gramne for the Elks was that part of
Judge Powers speech in the tabernacle
referring to past and present condi-
lions in Utah. II was the more sig
nificant. coming. as il did. from one
who had been conspicuous in the con-
tests between Mormons and non Nor
mons in the past. and who had been
recognized as leader of the Gentle
element when divisions were on the
old lines.
After o tribute to the Mormons as
people and a euIogy Of their hospital
ity. their charity and Kindness TO the
aged and unfortunate, the Judge said:
Time Will wear away he rough edges
of past contentious, for Mormon and
Gentle have united to make Utah the
Empire state Of the Rocky mountains.
> = We of Utah can work out our own
salvation"
The whole of the situation in this
state is contained in those few words.
II is unlikely that all the bitterness of
past conflicts win be forgotten readily;
there viii be frreconCflabIes on both
sides for years to>come. But the masses
of the people. both Mormon and non
Mormon. have wearied of the long
fight: they have come to recognize that
their common welfare lies in a united
effort for the common good. The one
issue over which the bitterest battles
were fought has been settled. and win
soon be buried beyond resurrection.
The generation now coming on the
stage has grown up from boyhood into
manhood under public school system
which is doing more than all other in
1luences TO make a homogeneous. united
citizenship. proud OF it's state. hope
ful of its future. and determined. as
Judge Powers said. to make this the
Empire state OF the Rocky mountains.
II the effort to entertain the Elks
had had no other result than to bring
forth this expression Of sentiment,
crystallized into realization, it would
have been worth all the money and all
the effort il has required.

I 2. MORGAN, who handles millions
j.. with Just about the same IA miliar-
ity that most men use in their inter
course with dimes, is reported to be
very anxious for the supreme court to
decide the Northern Securities company
case. II il is held that a corporation
has the same right as an individual
to hold a majority of the stock of sew
eral railroad corporations and control
them TO suit it's own views, then Mr..
Morgan will pick up the details of an
other great merger and amalgamate
them.
It is said that his plan contempiates
the practical consolidation of nineteen
southern railroads. They have a COM
bined capital of more than $413.000.000.
and their rails stretch over 29.49z miles.
Mr. Morgan believes that the operating
expenses Of these roads can be cut
down considerably. and he is probably
right. He figures that there is too
much competition in the south, but on
that point he will find many who will
not agree with him.
The only southern road not included
in the proposed merger is the
Illinois Central, and the stock
of that, or, a majority of 1t,
is said to be in the hands of John w.
Gates, who win turn it over to Morgan
as soon as it is called for. The COM
pIetion of the transaction will place
the south absolutely at the mercy OF
the combination. 1t will be able TO
stiAe competition, to discriminate
against the small shippers and in favor
of the large ones, to make and unmake
villages. towns and even cities through
freight schedules.
1t is barely possible, indeed. it is
more than possible. that Mr.. Morgan
win find his road a rough one to travel.
regardless OF any decision in the North
ern Securities case. Nearly all of the
southern states have stringent railroad
laws on their statute books. The pur-
chase by one line of another that is
parallel to or competing with it is dis
tinctly and specifically forbidden.
In the south the corporations are
not in control of the legislatures and
I the people as they are in so many Of
| the northern states. Down there they
are somewhat old-fashioned. They be-
lieve in sending honest men to the leg
/ islature. Public offices are sacred
public trusts, and instances of fraud
| gan will discover that antitrust laws
in the south are not intended as bits
J of legal humor.

IMPRESSIONS OF THE ELKs.

tTHE BENEVOLENT Protective Or
der of Elks may not contain all the
optimists in the world. but it is morally
certain that all Elks are optimists.
+, This Is one of the impressions the
grand lodge convention has given Salt
Takers. and it viii be remembered long
after the big meeting has passed into
! history.
{ There have been circumstances cal
: rulated TO sour the sweetest DISPOSE

ture of the order
And Salt Lake has learned another
lesson. The Benevolent Protective Or
. der OF Eiks was not organized purely
for the promotion of good fellowship.
There is another side to the organiza-
tion, side that the public rarely sees.
When Paul. writing to the Corinthians
about the virtues, concluded his cata-
logue with "and the greatest of these
is charity" he wrote the keynote OF a
: ritual that was formulated nearly 1900
years ago.
Elk charity is as broad as sorrow, as
lasting as distress and as deep as be-
reavement. 1t does not stop to inquire

the sufferer. Elk or no Elk. Jew or
Gentle, white or black, If help is
needed the afflicted receives it. OF

nothing Their work is done in secret
as the Man of Sorrows enjoined, and
they have his promise that the Father
who seeth in secret will reward them

Long may the order of Elks live and
