Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1906-04-01

If hustle on the part Of some Of the lovers
Of horses IN Omaha can accomplish IT
Omaha will be given some horse races this
summer OF the best type. When the state
speed association met in Omaha in January
the local owners were given to understand
that Omaha could have a date on that cir
cult for any time wished and now F, A.
Nash and others are hustlng TO form an
association that can put on some races
that will call forth the best horses of the
country. 1t IL now proposed to form an
association to acquire by lease what is
commonly known as Sprague street park
and to make necessary improvements with
q view Of giving an annual race meet in
Omaha. Other Nebraska towns, notably
Blair Tekamah Friend. York. Fremont and
smaller towns, give these meetings, and not
only make them successful from the stand
point of bringing many to the town from
the outside, encouraging trade and business
intercourse, but also make them a success
financially. II Is thought an organization
on similar lines with the horse show asso-
citation can carry out such project, result
ing IN bringing to Omaha at least once a
year people from all sections of the state.
To do this successfully would require the
association of responsible business men
whose names would add material weight to
the undertaking,

said an enthusiast, the local horsemen
have great opportunity TO arrange for a
meeting that would draw some Of the best
horses this way BY the best do not mean
the very fastest, perhaps, but class OF
horses that will race honestly and give the
satisfaction that comes from real contests.
We have here a half mile track that Is
admittedly one OF the best in the whole
western country, with accommodations for
a hundred horses, and good aceommoda-
lions at that The railroads all center here,
thus assuring quick transit for the stock
coming from other meetings, and there Is
no reason on earth why we should not
have race meetings here every summer
that would put us In line with other cities
of Omaha's class. All II needs is the active
participation of our horse owners and
horse lovers. And too, 1t must not be
overlooked that Nebraska men own some
