DEATH KNELL FOR
HORSE RACES HERE
Sixty Days OF Gambling Each
Year Gets Quietus From
City Council.
Mr.. MULvEY STANDS ALONE
Registers Lone Vote In Favor of the
Horse Men, Pool Selling and
Book Making.

Horse racing has failed in Salt Lake
city the last blow To- the game was
given last night when the city attorney
Informed the council that Il could
under no consideration authorize 50
days racing each spring and so each
fall, for the statute provided that the
council can suppress and prohibit but
not regulate bookmaking and the at
tendant evils Of horseracing Mr.. Null
vey said that IL bookmaking we're pro-
hibited. there would be no horserac-
ing, as they would not bring tho
animals To the city unless bets and
pools were to be allowed.
The question arose in the council
when the committee reported on the
petition of Frank Knox and others for
80 days racing during the spring and
fall Mr.. Mulvey made a iacrymose
speech In which he insisted that horse
racing brought money 10 the city. that
the state fair would suffer n the game
were prohibited and furthermore that
the owners Of the Buena Vista track
were subjected to great loss on account
of the fine track which through the
action OF the council became useless
Councilman Han said that women
and clerks were accustomed to visit
the races and TO spend their savings
and in this view OF the evil Mr.. Fern
storm concurred saying that the city
ordinance did not forbid racing though
II did forbid pool selling.
Councilman Mckinney felt that the
council could not legally grant perrnis-
sion to do something which the statute
says cities may suppress and when the
question was referred to CITY Atty,
Dininny he settled the matter by saying
that the council could not legally make
such a provision as was requested
The courts of the different states are
unanimous In the proposition that pool
selling Is gambling" he said
Mr.. Mulvey said that the race track
people had told him that they would
not come bnck unless the council au-
thorized gambling with the races and
thus a quietus was put on the resolu-
ton. Mr.. Mulvey voted in favor OF the
races but all OF the other .councilmen
followed the inevitable and turned the
resolution down.
