Martin In Luck

None of the big contracts for jockeys
which were talked of last season have
been renewed this year for the reason
that the Jockey club disapproved of
the sharp competition for the best rid
ers, which so magnified the Importance
of jockeys for several years. The only
boy now riding in the east who has a
contract in any way resembling the
inflated values of jockeyship a year
ago is Martin, who is under engage
ment to Capt. S. S. Brown for $4,000
year, it is said. That agreement was
had reached Capt. Brown, but as
Martin has been riding in his best
form for the greater part of the sea-
son the Pittsburg turfman has re-
ceived fair returns. The retainers paid
to the other leading jockeys range
from sums we'll down under $4,000 to
the practical guarantee of the riding Of
certain stables at special fees for win
ming mounts, and as most of the big
stables have found good boys available
whenever wanted without the extra
cost of paying big annual retainers, 1t
begins to look as if the rewards of
race riding have been reduced as a
permanent thing.
So it is that Knapp, who year ago,
with the same ability that he has
shown recently, might have secured
a contract that would give him between
SIS, 900 and $4,000 for a season of riding
from one stable, now may lead the win
ming list and still earn a far less sum.
Knapp, a western product, who by his
own statement never went through any
apprenticeship, but rode on even terms
with experienced jockeys from the
start, figured in the winning list for
the first time last season, when, rid
ing on the lesser tracks of the west
and at Ascot and Oakland, he was
fourth in the number of winning
mounts, Hildebrand leading with 299,
Nicol being second with 1913, Aubuchon
third with 165 and Knapp next with
1863. Knapp was taken to New York
under a contract with Walter B. Jen-
nings and rode first at Belmont park
in May, where he landed his first win
ner After that he fell into a hard
luck streak" and, though he repeated
Iy rode placed horses, fell into such dis
favor with that portion of the public
which follows success that he became
regarded as positive handicap. There
was nothing. wrong with his horse
manship, however and when he got
the chance at sheepshead Bay he be-
gan to land winners with such reg
ularity that before the end Of that
meeting he was in demand, and when
the Brighton meeting opened KnapI
was all the vogue The last tribute to
his success is that hackers have begun
to bet on his mounts and frame sys.

A eermon of '4s.
n the chieago PubIle.

From the Chicago Public
Nearly all that splendid band Of
German immigrants of 1S4S have done
their splendid work and passed away.
OF all among them who achieved dis
tinction in American public life, Carl
schurz alone remains. The last to go
was Jacob Mueller. at one time Lieu
tenant Governor of Ohio. who died last
week in Cleveland. Like Schurz,
Mueller was through and through a
Democrat
Those German immigrants of 1S4s
were a different type from the later
ones. Whereas these have come mere
ly to gain a better livelihood. the 9TH
ers came because they loved liberty.
The difference in their use of Amer
lean citizenship has been marked. 1t
cannot be said Of all the later ones,
as it infalliby could be said of those
of 1s4s. that they like the founders of
our republic. had pledged to liberty
their lives. their fortunes and their
sacred honor. and were always alert
to redeem the pledge. The others
may have been more thrifty; these
were more devoted. And of all the
devoted German immigrants of AS,
none was more devoted nor more
quick to catch the call when new oc-
casions brought new duties. than

Is Too Pessimissic.

From the Milwaukee Sentinel
A pessimistic view OF our social and
moral conditions seems 10 be rather in
fashion just now. Here is worthy Bishop
Bowman for instance. telling ns that
"modern society is more corrupt than per-
dition." OF course, the bishops super
heated assertion is. viewed az "a literal
statement. nonscnsical; and thut Is not
the worst OF IT, II the assertion were
measurably true It would involve the con-
clusion that Christianity had proved
wretched failure as a social and moral
force. Is Bishop Bowman really prepared
TO stand by his position that the fruit Of
all these centuries of Christianity and the
medication OF the sublime morality OF
the Sermon on the Mount is a society
more corrupt than perditon?" or course,
he isn't A tree is known by its fruit;
and one can fancy the good Bishops in
dignation should, say. a believer In Bud
dhisn make the charge that he has made
against our society. and say. This is what
comes socially of your Christianity; and
yet YOU propose to spread and propagate
through the world this admittedly cor
rupting or at least morally ineffective So
cal force" our Christian philosophers
are continually pointing TO social bad re-
suits of other religions; so Bishop Bow
man seems to invite a staggering rejoind-
er in kind when he proclaims that our
society is more corrupt than perdtion.
But he didn't mean that-didn't mean
more than 10 per cent Of what he LITERAL
ny said lie was only straining after
