any time to render an account OF
orr acts to the editor OF the
Times. or to apologize to him at
any time for any action this pa
per may see fit to take in the
conduct of its own business.
The Times editor is wise all
rioht. but, like men Of more or
dinary mental equipment, he
sometimes falls into error. lie
wants to wager hat that this
paper never received a $40 fec
for announcing a candidate for a
judicial position until the present
campaign opened. Now, this ls
one of the instances in which the
Times education has been sadly
neglected, and if we had any de-
sire whatever to sport a new nat
at the expense of the Times ed
itor we could add to his stock
of knowledge; but what's the
use. If the Melbourne Times
wants to announce judicial cam
didates for 81 80 we have no OBJ
lection, a fact that we have tried
to make plain on one or two for
mer occasions.

FINES MAY DRIVE
RIDER FROM
THE TRACK
Walter Miller, Who Has Earned
100000 as Jockey, Likely to
Quit the Saddle

The saddle career of Jockey Walter
Miller. who has ridden for President T..
II. Williams of the New California
jockey club for two seasons and figures
pion American rider of 1906 and 1907,
may be brought to sudden termina-
tion as the result of a serious break
which the boy has had with Presiding
Judge Hopper and his associates in the
stand at Emeryville. Christmas day
Miller was fined $3.50 by the judges for
alleged rough riding in a race which he
won with Smiley Corbett.
The following Monday the boy was
suspended for three days Tor allowing
Darlington to swerve in front of Car
gantua in race which the latter won.
Last Friday fine of 5000 was imposed
on Miller simultaneously with the dis
qualification of the mare Cloudlight, on
which ne engaged in humping matcn
with Jacobite, to whom the race was
awarded after Cloudlight had hnlShed
in front. Believing that he had been
unjustly treated, Miller attempteSdi 70
secure a remittance of the Cloudllght
fine on the ground that Jockey Notter,
who had the mount on Jacoblte, was
equally to blame for the humping match
that aroused the official ire.
Judge Hopper and his associates couid
not see it in that light and declined 10
reopen the case. The manner IN Whlcn
the officials treated Millers request for
the remittance of his fine added to his
resentment and he refused TO pay the
I fine until he has had the opportunity OF
laying the matter before I. H. w llHdins
His refusal to pay the fine led 70 the
enforced cancellation of his engage
ments yesterday, including that on his
i employers Tube Rose, starter IN the
, year old race, on which Jockey keogh
was substituted.
Miller expected to lay his grievance
! before T. II. Williams yesterday a1Ier-
noon. but the president of the Jockey
club did not put IN an appearance at
the track, and SO there We're no fur-
! ther developments. Concerning his
case, Miller said: .;
Il feel that 1 have been diserlml-
mated against and prosecuted. other
bovs have done much more rough rld-
1 ing than I have, but none of them
1 has been punished to any such eH
! tent. / would not mind it SO nuch II
1 the fines were not excessive. but II IS
! discourag ging TO have all my earnings
