There Is heard from time to time,
severe criticism Of the renovation of the
White House and the erection of the
Presidents Office building on the White
House grounds. Evidently most of this
capious criticism comes from people who
speak from hearsay. Candor compels
the admission that great improvement
has been wrought in the White House
proper and the Office, while not ornate,
conforms to all the requirements of
utility. There is the Jefferson simple
ity about the White House decorations,
but after all they are in entire accord
with American ideas, which do not gen
orally favor regal palaces for their ex-
ecutive Office.

WASHINGTON LETTER
Washington, Feb. %, 1903.

Washington, Feb. 20, 1903.
The great Statehood contest of the
Fifty seventh Congress is concluded
without admission Of any Of the terri
tories. While parliamentary tactics may
keep the Omnibus Statehood bill, or the
Spooner compromise, nominally before
the Senate for the remainder OF the ses-
sion, it is admitted by the friends OF
Statehood that the battle is lost. The
republican leaders now announce that
next session they will secure the passage
on strict republican vote, Of a two
state bill, ignoring the democrats in the
legislation. The final defeat Of all state
hood legislation at this session came as
result Of the action OF democratic
caucus which voted unanimously to re
ject the 30 called compromise proposed
by the republican minority and which
was never intended to be accepted.
~
Referring to to the action OF the dem
ocrats, Senator Clay said last night, ut
was impossible for the democrats to ac-
cept the 30 called compromise bill. In
the first place it was not compromise
bill at all, and it was offered With the
knowledge that it could not be accepted
by the real friends OF Statehood. Would
it not be u manifest injustice TO combine
Arizona and New Mexico in one state
when none Of the people Of either terri
tory is agreeable to such an arrange.
ment? When all are bitterly opposed to
it, In fact? Then think Of what . state
the two territories would make. The
greatest length OF the proposed stat
would equal the distance from New York
to Chicago, 1t would materially exceed
in area the great state OF Texas, which
has the privilege OF resolving itself into
four states at pleasure. The result Of
such u combination could only mean
strife for the inhabitants. Why the
area OF tho one state proposed would ex.
ceed that OF ull New England and New
York state. The democrats could not
submit to such to such an injustice
Next year, however, during the long ses.

we will win on three or u four state

MADDEN'S RACING STABLE
WON A TOTAL OF .$s1,01O.
Does Not Include the Solid Gold Cup
Won I'm Saratoga Special-TwO-
Year-OIds Best winners.

LEXINGTON, KY. Dec. THE racing
stable of John E. Madden has gone into
winter quarters at Hamburg place, with
earnings on the season of 1903 of S7l,010,
according to statistics compiled b. we'll
known authority here. One remarkable fact
in regard to Madden's huge turf earnings
this year is that, with the exception of
about $1,000 all the s7lO10. which was won
by the horses in the Hamburg place stable,
was captured by two-year-olds. This total
does not include the valuable solid gold
cup won in the Saratoga Special by Aris-
tocracy, which is worth $500, and which
is more priced by horsemen as a turf
trophy than three or four times its money
valuation, il is the first solid gold cup
ever offered by an association for a two-
year-old race in this country.
While John T.. Maddens private stable
won the good sum of $71,0l0 in 1903, horses
trained by this astute horseman during the
year now closing won a total of Sis, 1905.
For Whitney d Duryea, with Whorler. he
won the Brooklyn Derby, and all told S10,-'

lowing compilation gives amounts won by

MAY DROP GRAND CIRCUIT.


BUFFALO, N. Y, Dec 1T is a matter
or history that wherever the runners have
raced the trotters and PAGERS have been
crowded out, and history is about to repeat
itself, for 1t has just been announced that
the Buffalo Driving Association will make
no application for Grand Circuit dates next
season. The runners have crowded the
trotters out OF Shlcago and other cities,
and now Buffalo. 1t seems is to follow suit.
But the public cannot be blamed The
trotting morse men and managers of and
oInclals employed on the Grand Circuit are
TO blame themselves The public has come
10 know. that IL has no chance when Ii
comes TO backing the long tailed horses,
ana. another thing, 1t doesn't get the quick
action for its money that a running race
anords. further argument is that crook
edness in trotting and pacing races is fairly
encouraged How often is a driver sus-
pended Tor laying up a heat when the pub
lie Is betting Its money on the horse that is
pulled? Very seldom. On the other hand
IL Jockey is caught pulling a horse in a
running race, jockey, horse trainer and
owner are tried and punished severely every
time. The judges may not always catch
the offender, but the public knows that
punishment or a severe character awaits
the crooked jockey, and therefore bets its
money with confidence that he will get a
run for 1t.
The gentlemen who ran the trotting meet
ing at keniiworth last summer certainly
did not do their best to keep the racing
clean. In fact, 1t was openly charged that
a. ieoo' wv iich Sohnecttu Win the ASSOC
citation were in on the big job that was
pulled off on the closing day of the meeting
IL Is such things as these that give racing
black eye with large rings around It,
There has been some talk that the Buffalo
Road Drivers Association will give a meet
ing at kenlworth next year. but so far
nothing definite has come of it. The assoc
citation membership is composed of repre-
sentative business men and enthusiastic
horsemen. and no doubt a meeting under
the auspices OF the Buffalo Road Drivers
Association would be as successful as any,
body could make Ii. However. IL is doubt
| full IL the public will ever take to the trot-
tiers again so long as there are runping
races at Kenilworth and Fort Erie.
