No, matter what is said about the
primary and the expense attached to
entering 1t, 1t gives every sovereign a
chance to vote for his choice In a
word the people make the choice now,
and in the days of the convention
county and state bosses delivered the
goods without consulting the people.
III our esteemed and only great and
good Times Union is not satisfied with
the primary why let the counties and
the state pay the expense of getting
out the tickets and pay the managers
of the election. The matter Of public
ity rests with the candidate. If a can
didate desires to use page or half
a page day or two before the cleo
ton in the papers advocating his own
candidacy, why that is with him. The
primary may not give you a moro
faithful or ADLER public servant than
the convention, but whoever he may
be he is put there by the majority of
the voters of the state and the boss
has no. hand in the DEAL Long live
the primaries. The yare not perfect.
may never be, but they emanate from
the heart of the people and that Is
good enough democracy for this land.

California Jockey Club Stewards Are Still
Probing the Case Of R. 0. Wilson

Despite published reports to that ef-

that Jockey Reggie Davis was in no
way involved in the circumstances lead
ing to the ruling of of R. o. Wilson,
trainer OF Prince Brutus and other
horses. 1t was Jockey Sandy and
Jockey Pohanka who supplied the evil
dence on which wilson's turf career
was brought to an involuntary and
sudden end.
Sandy told the stewards OF the jockey
club. when they questioned him con-
cerning the truth Of a report which had
accidentally come to their attention.
that Wilson was the only person who
had ever approached him with a dis
honest proposition during his career
as rider. He said that Immediately
after Prince Brutus had passed into
the possession Of Wilson, few weeks
ago. Wilson wanted to engage him to
ride the horse. with the understanding
that he should get OF badly. go wide
on the turns and take other measures
to keep the horse from finishing in the
money, in return for which he would
be well rewarded. Sandy turned down
the proposition and refused to ride the
horse He informed his employer. Har-
ry Mack, and another personal friend
of the attempt to bribe him. but on the
advice of his err -,loyer let the matter
go without reporting it to the officials.
as he should have done.
Shortly a{terward Sandy noticed VIII
son talking with Jockey Pohanka. and.
inducing the boy to become confiden-
tial with him, learned that Wilson had
attempted to induce Pohanka to pull
his ployer's mare. Taunt. out OF the
money by promising him 5000 for tho
job. Pohanka declared that he had
not for moment thought Of accept.
ing Wilson's proposal He told his en-
ployer. T. E. Crist. OF the incident. but
could not give him the name of the
man who had made the proposition.

so that when the stewards called upon
him he was in a position to add ma

Tolena handicap yesterday because
there were three bad actors-St. Elm

Gemmell been left in Pajaroita prob

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL
NEW ORLEANS. March 21.-City
Parks derby today furnished the most
sensational upset of the year, when
the seemingly unbeatable Meelick fin
ished third to Angelus and Chapulte-
pee, running as the Burlew & O'Neill
entry. Angelus won cleverly with Not
ter as pilot. The entry was second
choice att 10 to 8, with Meelick the
topheavy choice at to 20 and all the
big bettors aboard.
Angelus simply burned up the
track" running the mile and a quar-
ter in 2:o4 3-5, which is a new track
record, the former mark being 2:05 s-5.
There were no apparent good excuses
for Meelick. He was simply outrun.
Dugan again had the mount on the ia
vorite. Meelick could not keep up with
the sizzling pace and dropped back
hopelessly beaten before they were
within hailing distance of the wire.
Angelus was four lengths ahead of
his stable mate. Chapultepec, at the
finish.
The crowd was breathless with as
tonishment for a moment, and then
broke into the widest cheering ever
heard on southern track.
Today's derby at City Park track was
virtually a renewal of the Crescent City
derby, as the same four colts went to
the post and the same sum, $4,000.

NAY AMELIA WINS AGAIN

The consistent May Amelia made the
company with which she was running
in the second race look cheap. Jockey
Buxton kept her just behind the pace
set by Salvage and Lord Nelson until
well into the stretch and then gave
her her head, with the result that she
galloped over the leaders to win by
four lengths. Salvage weakened badly
in the final sixteenth and barely lasted
to save third money from ChoIk He'd
rick. Lord Nelson hung on with great
gameness and was easily second Naga-

had been looked upon a likely contend

Of speed was foreshadowed by smart
support that reduced his odds from 60
down to IL. Miller took the lead with
Huerfano at the last turn and the horse

second and Miss May Bowdish came
several lengths for third money. Buto,
