BRIGHTON RACES.
Ethics Disqualified After Winning for
Rough Riding.

The handicap that was run as the fourth
race at Brighton Beach yesterday resulted
In something much like miscarriage OF
justice. Ethics was strong favorite and
won the race, but was disqualified on ac-
count of the rough riding tactics employed
by Burns, who had the mount. Ethics
won by three lengths with great ease, and
there seemed no question that at the
weights he was much the best horse In the
race Doubtless Tom Kenny, whose rider
made the complaint of foul. would have
been closer to the winner at the end II
Ethics had not 1ostled him, but Ethics won
SO easily as to leave no room for doubt as
to his superiority. After interviewing Bull
man, Odom and Wonderly, the stewards
disqualified Ethics and gave the race to
Himself, who had beaten Tom Kenny a
head for the place, and moved Numeral
into third place. Thus the public suffered
severely, for Ethics was heavily backed,
and the Jockey, who was alone to blame,
escaped absolutely without punishment.
Possibly the decision was in accordance
with the rules OF racing, literally inter-
preted, but there is no doubt that 1t worked
hardship on the innocent, while the Offend
ing jockey escaped penalty.
Arden led the field for six furlongs with
Himself and Numeral close up and Tom
Kenny in fourth place. When Arden shut
up the DAILY horse Numeral and Tom
Kenny went on, and Burns brought Ethics
up and drove him through this bunch. The
jostling that followed cost Ethics the race
and his hackers much money.
Grail performed in Unexpectedly poor
fashion in the first race and never fiattered
her hackers. Stevedore led all the way.

rubber yesterday for the first time in al

1t was nothing to be proud of. If Manager

Sieyer was on the rubber for the De-
troits, and he had the Senatorial sluggers
guessing all the time the seven safe hits
being long drawn out with the result that
not a runner scored.
The fielding of the Tigers was right up to
the mark, while Ely, Keister and DOYLE
pulled off misplays tnat were costly.
Neither side scored in the first three
innings and it was thought that Townsend
was going all right but In the fourth he
got the hot end of decision on strikes

were chased over the rubber In this inning
by the Tigers. Not satisfied with lnis good

Railroads Should Not Be Favored

The interference of the railroads in
this state in county and state politics
is not a reason why the railroads
should be unjustly assessed at an un-
reasonably high valuation for taxa
ton; but it is a reason why they
should not be favored by a ridicu-
lousy low assessment.
The revenue law of this state pro-
vides for certain exemptions; but
railroad corporations are not ex-
empted. The law provides, in &C
cordanee with the constitution, that
all taxable property must be assessed
at its actual cash value. Railroad
property is taxable property under
The Kalispell bee. [volume] (Kalispell, Mont.) 1900-192?, 1902-07-29

roads and the commissioners of the
various counties upon the question at
issue. Flathead county might well
have afforded to send a member OF
it's board of commissioners to Hell
ena to use his voice and influence in
securing a proper valuation of the
Great Northern properties in this
county, even if the commissioner was
difident on the subject of travelling
on his pass. In the face of the pre-
vailing sentiment of legislative con-
troll of the railroads traversing this
state, the corporations will not dare
the limited hedging of raising the tar
ifs to reimburse their Golfers from
the public should their assessment
be perceptibly increased. BY such
action they would be inviting that
state control which they so much
dread. This is the only argument
the pets of the railroads have been
advancing against an increased and
righteous assessment and it can thus
be easily disposed of. The state board
has for the first time evidenced an in
clination to listen to the counties in
terested in the valuation of the rail
roads. and this concession portends
great things.

The wolf and coyote eXtermina-
ton society of Montana are meeting
with great success. Not only has the
state bounty fund derived from last
years taxes gone glimmering, but
there are $4,000 of unpaid claims
now on file. In many portions of the
state wolfers make a business of
rearing wolves and coyotes to secure
the bounty. The whelps are reared
to maturity then killed and the re-
ward is obtained, after which the
hides are sold at a good profit. A
wolf is a wolf or else a coyote,
whether killed in a wild state or
cultivated for market, and the in
dustry bids fair to rival that of the
sheep and other range stock. The
solution of the wolf and other range
animal destroyers is a long way off
as the number offered for bounty has
increased year by year. Wolfers will
not kill female if it is possible to
trap her, future developments being
more profitable, and the dogs will
not attack a female, either.
