RIDERS WILL
SCRAMBLEFOR
COIN TONIGHT

WITH the Kind permission OF
M Old Man Weather, and with
the enthusiastic cooperation
Of the greatest string Of riders ever
gathered for race meeting in Dixie
they're off tonight al the Motor
drome for the fourth race meet of
the local season-and 80 looks the
best in the bunch.
There's more pep" and enJhus
asm out at Riders Row to-day, than
there has been since the meeting be
gan Up TO this meet the riders
have known that. mounted as they
are now, JOCK Mcneil and Whine.
Richards were fast enough to take
all the races The rest got chance
only in the specials
Now Mcneil and Richards have
been yanked out and put in a class
BY themselves. These two meet to-
night in three match races al three
miles each. This viii settle the most
momentous speed question Of the sea %
son. But they viii have it an to
themselves
It's a Mighty Close Thing.
With the two fastest machines out
Of it the rest of the riders win scram-
bic viciously for the Sweepstakes and
the Motordrome Purse. II could not
be any more even, OF the eight
riders who win take part there isn't
over a fraction OF a second 10 the
mile difference in the machines or the
riders They are calculated to race
nose and nose. every inch Of the diff
ference. with the advantage slightly
favoring Harry Glenn, because he
has the longest nose.
Another improN ement in the card
comes from the fact that there wiz
be four starters in each heat Of the
two regular races. In past meets
two Of the heats have had bat three
starters. And IL really takes four
to make the racing good Tonight
both the preliminary heats and The
finals win have four starters.
II will not be surprising to see
some remarkable marks made to-
night. The track has been proved
so safe that every man Is willing to
let out to the limit Thus far there
hasn't been a man even scratched
Accidents Looked For.
To the old timers the absence Of
accidents is growing monotonous.
Not one Of them ever heard OF three
meets on a new track without at least
one bad spill. They looked for them
Wednesday night. and it really
seemed TO disappoint them that moth
ing happened
II is marvellous thing, consider
ing the scores Of men who have been
killed on board tracks and consider
ing the fine possibilities Of spill
at IS miles an hour or better, that
none of the riders fear an accident
They try to be moderately careful
But to expect sudden death-well, II
never occurs to them and they are
the only men at the track who don't
think Of 1t when they come to close
quarters at high speed
With a safe track and machines
getting better all the time there IS
no reason why a fast mark or two
should not be set tonight

Waupun, Wis. March 20-Edward
Eckart of PENNSYLVANIA was today
paroled from the Wisconsin peniten-
tiary after ST years of actual time
served behind the bars. He was con-
victed of murder when 81 years old.
Eckart's victim was Charles Peter
son, also of Pennsylvania. The two
were tramping in Wisconsin during
the excessively cold winter of 1875.
In quarrel over a fire started be
side the railroad track near Jeffer-
son, Peterson was killed, and Eckart
was sentenced 10 life Imprisonment
for the murder. lie never has ad-
mitted the crime, maintaining that
Peterson was killed by a tramp.
In the 81 years of prison confine-
ment, never a mark of demerit has
been placed against Eckart.
In the third OF a century of I'M
prisonment his kin have deserted him
and he does not know the wherea-
bouts of his wife and daughter. The
Judge who sentenced him and the
district attorney who prosecuted him
are dead, and only three OF the jury
men are living.
Eckart never lost hope Without
money he managed to bring his case
before the supreme court of Wiscon-
sin and the circuit court of appeals
of the United States, but he was
thwarted. In a desperate last hope
he appealed to "a Milwaukee news
paper man, who was instrumental in
obtaining his conditional release.

$4,000 Colorado
Sheep Now Grazing
Upon Utah Ranges

That there are now It's. 900 head
of Colorado sheep grazing on lands
around Cisco. Utah, is the statement
OF w. L. Robertson, foreman of the
sheep outfit owned by the Indian
Creek Cattle company. The sheep
are on lands between Westwater and
Cisco, and are cutting the vegetation
to the extreme minimum.
The influx of Colorado sheep into
Utah has been very marked of recent
years, and hardly summer goes by
without some 10000 to 900 head
being taken through Grand Junction
to Utah. The ranges are not in bad
condition yet, but it is thought un-
less some very strict rules in regard
to grazing, are made. that the sheep
will effectually kill all vegetation in
that section of the state.

MESA COUNTYS
RAILROAD TAX

Editor Sentinel:
In the hearing before the county
commissioners concerning the appli-
cation of the railroad companies for
a rebate of taxes, an attorney of this
city either in the pay of the railroad
or some others interested, continu-
ally reiterated the statement that in
case of contest between the rail-
road companies and the commission
ers in court that the county had
no case Such a statement Is not an
argument. The different opinions
among lawyers as to the merits of a
controversy usually make lawsuits,
and the question whether or not per-
sonal property or real estate has been
assessed on a different basis as the
railroads is not defense for the rail-
road companies.
The fact that a COW in Plateau val
ley was assessed at one-fourth of its
value and the railroads at one-third
will not prevent the county from col
lecting the taxes.
The constitution quoted by the
county attorney at the meeting
ought to settle the matter.
Sec. of Article 0 says "All taxes
shall be uniform upon the same class
of subjects within the territorial linn
its of the authority levying the tax"
Now the tax is uniform within the
state so far as the railroads are CON
cerned, and they do not deny that.
All railroads are assessed alike
consequently what the lots upon
which the Elks' Temple association
were assessed at and sold for does
not have any bearing on the ques-
ton as long as the tax is uniform on
the railroad properties.
If the commissioners are to be
governed by the action of the meet
ing, 9s voicing the sentiments of the
people of the county, the claim for
rebate will be disallowed as the vote
at the meeting. except three votes,
was unanimous against it.
