Some OF the papers are talking
about increasing the governors
salary from 81, 10000 TO $40, 10000

to help future candidates make

STATE FAIR RACES.
The Meeting Will be the Greatest Ever
Held in the Southwest.


Dallas, Texas, August 24.-The
race program OF the State Fair this
wear calls tor one hundred and
twelve events, to take place during
the thirteen days Of the carnival.
There will thus be nine races
day for eight days, and eight races
a day for the remaining five dave,
not TO mention a number OF bur
die and steepleschase events yet to
be- arranged for. The purses and
stakes aggregate $4,000. The
early closing stakes have all been
filed with a phenomenally large
number of the best horses in the
country. The racing plant has
been put in a condition second to
no other in the South. The as
ISOLATION is alrea iy renting all the
barns to be had near the grounds,
az the stalls on the grounds are too
few to accommodate the horses.
There are, at this early date, two
hundred horses in the fair grounds
stables, training for the meeting.
Every precaution has been taken
to have the races strictly on the
square. Joseph A. Murphy, who
has national reputation in his
line, has been engaged for the re-
sponsible post Of judge. The
grand-siand, which was recently
unroofed by a gale, is being rebuilt
on more modern lines.

Open antagonism between the
Mayor and Board of Supervisors and
the Relief Corporation assumed a
serious nature yesterday, when two
policemen. by authority of the Mayor.
were placed in each park where refu-
gees are camped for the purpose of
preventing the election from the cot
tages of people refusing to pay rent.
The executive committee of the cor
poration sent letter to the Mayor
and Board of Supervisors yesterday,
stating that if the proposed ordinance
is passed to prevent the collection of
rents, the money being spent by that
organization for sanitary and police
protection would cease and the city
would be compelled to stand that ex-
pense in the future.
From present indications it is evi-
dent that the city authorities, in en-
deavoring to interfere with the work
of the Relief Corporation, as sane
toned by the Park Commission, will
cause the enforcement of the law
which prohibits the use of parks for
any purpose other than pleasure, and
thousands of people may be forced
into the streets, without shelter from
the storms and chill of winter
weather.
The law gives the Park Commis-
sion the exclusive control of the
parks, but it does not permit their use
for any purpose but that of pleasure
FORCE THEFT EVICTION
Thus. if the Park Commission should
endeavor TO oppose the action of the
Supervisors in their effort to control
the parks, it would bring the ques-
ton of the right of refugees to the
parks into court and probably thus
force their eviction. 1t has been
through the constant supplication on
the part of the relief authorities that
the Park Commission has consented to
violate law by permitting the camps
W Conliiiuc III cAlSleHCe. lnlS is eX-
planned in part in letter written by
Park Commissioner r. II. Lloyd to
Mrs. Mary S. Merrill, member of
the State Red Cross and of the re-
habilitation committee.
In his letter Mr.. Lloyd stated that
the Commissioners openly violated the
law in giving the Relief Corporation
permission to use the parks, but it was
done because extreme necessity de-
manded such action. When it was
learned by the commission that some
of the places were being used for i'm
moral purposes. and that rioters and
drunken brawlers were occupying some
of the houses, orders for the eviction
of such people were promptly made.
The eviction of these people was thus
made by legal authority. The Com
missioners also ordered the removal
from the parks of single men who were
able-bodied and who could support
themselves
