DOPING A RACE HORSE.
The Way the Potent Drug Affects the
Unfortunate Animal.

"No one is likely 10 bc caught i'm the
act OF doping horse" said prolni-
nent veterinarian the other day. ''be-
cause the dose given Is 50 small that it
.an be administered uslcr the very
eyes OF the officials, with little if any
danger of detection, and. besides, ii IS
given so long before the race that the
horses are not then likely to bc under
surveillance. If horse is to race at
3 o'clock he gets a two grain powder
on his tongue i'm a darkeued stall at ]
o'clock. The drug takes effect in about
thirty minutes, and the animal breaks
out into sweat He is rubbed down,
cooled out and done up as if he had
come i'm from morning work. Every
effort is made to keep him quiet until
post time, but he very often breaks out
again and s again cooled out. The
doped horse never takes any warming
up work, and this fact affords the best
means | know of for finding him out
He is moved slowly TO the starting
point. great care being taken to pre-
vent him from becoming excited until
the flag is dropped. Then a kick and
a dig do the work, and i'm an instant
the full force of the dope is felt, stimu-
lating the animal TO run the race OF his
life.
after the race an autidote is usual
ly given, but ii is sometimes we'll along
I'm the night before the excited horse
regains his normal condition. The
strain on the nervous system is terrific.
For this reason dope horses have short
careers. as a rule. and are of little

Justice to DR.. Foster.

1t is hardly fair to DR.. l.. S. Foster
to say that he has dehed the lawful
authorities. He has made brave fight
for his rights and his reputation, but
in so doing he has merely employed
the lawful means which the courts af-
ford to every man. He held his ground
under writ Of Injunction. and he was
clearly within his rights until that In
junction was overruled.
The Times-Dispatch has held from
the start that DR.. Foster did not get
a square deal. When the board first
dismissed him. we expressed the opin-
ion that he had done nothing worthy
Of dismissal. and that he should at
least have been allowed to serve out
his term. Nothing since has developed
to alter that conviction. There was no
sufficient reason to turn him out of
office, so far as the printed evidence
shows,

been a godly triumph.

righteousness, and with devout chivalry
consecrated their talents and energies to

A Railroad Exhibit.

The Lynchburg News says that The
Times Dispatch has r.istaken the tenor
OF its views on the subject of railroad
rates. 1t was replying to the. assertion
of the Mobile Register, that to supplant
two-cent rate for q three-cent rate
would cut off one-third the railroad reve-
nue. from passenger traffic"
The News maintains that this PROPOSE
ton is Saturated with error" and while
our contemporary did not mean, and
does not mean, to say that there would
result more revenue TO railroads, or as
much. from general fiat two-cent rate
as from the prevailing rate. it does insist
that one-third reduction in passenger
fare would not be followed by a one
third reduction in passenger revenue"
In conclusion the News says:
THE News thoroughly agrees with The
Times Dispatch that this question should
be thoroughly investigated and ,slfted to
its very last analysis ere final conclu-
sion is reached. The railroads of the
State deserve their day in CORTLAND the
people should have theirs and out of IT
all should evolve rate that will nj
once conserve the interests of the public
and not cripple our public carriers-the
lowest possible rate that can attain such
end. The News recognizes the splendid
work which has been done. and is being
done. by our railway systems, and theh

tons. but at the same time 1t protest,
against the abuse of their great power
and urges government action whereb,
