DURYEA WINS. $125,000
THIS RACE SEASON

H. B. Duryea, VINO owns Sweeper
II, winner of the 1000 guineas and
fayorite for the Derby in which he
ran unplaced, has returned to this
country from France.
He says that Sweeper II retired
from racing on account of a bowed
tendon and is now in France, but will,
Duryea hopes, be we'll enough to be
raced next season in England.
The stable of horses owned by the
American turfman won this year in
France more than 100000, which
places Duryea very high up in the
list of winning owners.
Added to this is Sweeper lis earn
ings in the 1000 guineas and other
! races, and this makes Duryea the
winner of more than $125,OO0 in 1872
in the two countries. The French
stable is under the care of Thomas
Murphy. who, Duryea said, is a
splendid man for horses.
Murphy at one time was in David
Gideon's employ.
DURYEA'S best colt on the French
turf last year was Shannon, by Irish
Lad. out OF Census. by Ethelbert, out
of Calculation, she by St. LlOrin, out
Of Reckon.
On the subject of speculation on
the races in France he said that
plunging cannot exist, because a
heavy bet on a horse cuts down the
odds.
There is none Of the heavy bet
ting there that goes on in England ami
which VIC had once on the American
turf by few individuals Duryea
says.

Watch Out

how you mark your tickets, for an
idiot in the last legislature had it
made somewhat intricate. All the
candidates for a given Office, where
there is more than one, must each
have his name at the top a pro rata
number of times. For instance: Geo.
NJ. Kahrs and Orville R. New are can
didates for the ofice of Count, Treas
urer, and, according to this new fool
law, their names must each be first on
half of the tickets for each precinct.
The same with Louis &. Siegel and
Howard c. Daugherty for assessor.
Watch the changes, and be SURF to
vote for those who have announced
their candidacy in the Morgan Coun-
ty REPUBLICAN, and you will make no
mistake.
