rest of the distance they nave 10 guess
at what is taking place and now the
horses are moving.
And then, if they make an lilcolieo'
statement in their accounts ol 'ile i'oe
there is thunder to pay. Ihey are ac-

unfairness. which is entirely uhcalleu

that the reporters are making the
wrong statements Intentionally and
that they have some grudge against
their horse. even though the reporter
never saw the animal before.
Years ago the deck of the stand
which vas assigned to the reporters
was sufficiently high to allow them to
soc every foot of the race and in those
davs the men took some comfort in do
inc the races as they should. AS it
now is they have TO write profunctory
ana unsatisfactory accounts of the
events. The great public, which looks
to the papers for a story of these con-
tents finds this disjoined report far
from what it wants and blames the
men who write it, instead of the fair
people, as they should. Last year
President Beals attention was called
to the condition and it was pointed out
to him that it was impossible for a good
account of Il race to be obtained there.
1t was hoped that he would recognize
the fact and make a change, but he did
not.
Hold on, there has been one improve
ment A slanting board shelf has been
put around the place for the boys to
write on. 1t is convenience, but 1t
doesn't help the view of the race lit

Another thing which shows the kind
