-Bookies Reap Harvest, While
Record for Poor Showing OF
Public Choices Is Broken

der If there ever will be an end to the
losing streak that the favorites have
got into at Emeryyille 1t was the
same story yesterday as on three days
last week-all the favorites were
bowled over and the bookies reaped
harvest. The record now stands that
out OF the last 38 races decided at the
'Emeryville track only three have been
won by favorites This probably breaks
all records for poor showings by public
choices in a corresponding period of
racing anywhere.
Yesterdays list of beaten first
choices included Moorish King, Elfin

number were from the Forsythe stable
and were ridden by Jockey j. Lee, who

by poor position at the post and was
forced to run around his field all the
way. Meanwhile Napa Dick, making

was skinning the rail in front and
nothing was able to get even close to
him. Lee allowed Bon Homme TO fan

ton in a statute of the conditions
under which such a temporary re-
straining order ought to issue. A
statute can and ought to be framed
to embody the best modern practice,
and can bring the subject SO closely
to attention of the court as to make
abuses of the process unlikely in the
future. American people, if under
stand them, insist that the authority
of the courts shall be sustained and
are opposed to any change in the
procedure by which the powers of a
court may be weakened and the fear
less and effective administration of
justice be interfered with.
Having thus reviewed the ques-
tions likely to recur during my Ad-
ministration, and having expressed
in summary way the position which

to Congress and in my conduct as an
executive, invoke the considerable
sympathy and support of my fellow
citizens, and the aid of Almighty God
in the discharge of my responsible
duties.

In these latter days much severe
criticism is heard OF the senate of

been so since the time of our fathers,
and that 1t will continue I have no
doubt. The record of the senate, to
which its present membership has
contributed, is made apd is beyond
recall. know OF none better made
by any legislative assembly any,

stand comparison with the record of
the senate in its elder days. 1t has
been written by men learned in the
science of government, inspired by as
patriotic purposes as actuated their
illustrious predecessors.

volved upon it under the constitu-

tracing from it legitimate powers.
Its legislative duties are vast, while
its duties with respect to treaties
and appointments to the public serv-
ice are of very great moment. A
servile senate was not contemplated
by it's founders. The senate is today
as jealous as ever of its proper dig
mites and its just powers and as
worthy as ever of the popular re-
spect and confidence.
1t requires no gift of prophecy to
foretell that many varied and COM

dent-elect ]. S. Sherman, in address,
ing the senate said:
Senators: Again new admins
tration succeeds to the control of ma
tional affairs in conformity with the
will of the people, expressed in their
sovereign capacity, under the order
ly process of the law. We witness
the impressive transference of ma
tional power in accordance with their
will deliberately recorded, with in
creased respect for our institutions.
We indulge the fervent hope that
the administration which will assume
authority under such agreeable aus
pices will meet in full measure our
national needs; that we may con-
tinue in happy accord with the pow.
ers of the world; that peace, con-
tentment and progress may prevail
throughout our borders, and that our
country may grow in material
strength; and more than that and
better than that, that education,
morality, justice, and patriotism,
which are our chief sources of pride.
may continue to increase among our
people.
1t now becomes my duty to take
final leave of you; and in doing so 1
beg to return to you my profoundest
thanks for the resolution which you
have just adopted, personal to my
self. To receive vote of your ap-

an important influence upon our So
cial and industrial systems. To you
who shall remain, and to your sue
cessors, the country will look. and
believe it will look with confidence,
for a solution which will be in har-
mony with the genius of American
institutions and which will comport
with our best national interest.
The senate, it is sometimes said.
is not always responsive to the popu-
lar will. Such assumption is erron-
ecus, judging by the record of legis-
lation accomplished. The will of the
people finds utteranee in the public
law in due course; not that will
which is the unreasoning passionate
expression Of the moment, but that
will which is the fruit of deliberate.
intelligent reflection.
The senate of the United States
was designated by our fathers to be
a deliberative chamber in the fullest
and best sense-a chamber where
the passions of the hour might be ar
rested and where the better judg-
ment of the people would find ultf-
mate expression. Those who in their
unrefiecting moments would sweep
it away would overturn one of the
strongest safeguards of our political
fabric.

STATE OF KANSAS.
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OIL
KANSAS GREETING:


TO THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF
KANSAS, GREETING:
A useful custom has grown up among
the people of the prairie states of the
Great West which is to set apart day
each spring for the planting of trees, and
this is appropriately called Arbor Day:
This is a good custom and should be
encourag ged and universally observed.
on this subject the late Governor Hogg
of Texas, at the close or useful life in
the service of his state. said:
.sI want no marble shaft to mark my
grave; but let some dear friend plant an
acorn at my head and a pecan at my feet.
and when these grow to maturity want
the children to come and play under their
shade and gather the nuts and plant them
that nv beloved Texas may become land
The Importance of tree planting in a,
prairie state Is self-evident- Aside from
their beauty the needs of American
civilization and American industry have
made vast inroads upon the natural tim
bar areas of our country at large. and
the people of Kansas should do their part
in tree planting for the benefit and con-
yenience of succeeding generations
Now. therefore, I hereby designate the
2nd oay of April, 1909, A. D. Is Arbor Day,
and recommend its general observance by
