This part Of the human family has no
objection to the betting concomitant.
A very much larger portion Of the popu-
lation is interested neither In the racing
nor the betting, but is perfectly indffer-
ent to the whole question involved
There are others who do not oppose
private oral betting between friends, but
who do oppose making this an excuse
for bringing back systematized gambling
on ractracks. They argue that the de-
cision OF the Supreme Court practically
nullifes the racetrack directors liability

any other that put the racetracks in this

There are several other things 10 know

THEIR GLORY DEPARTED.

In place of racing thoroughbreds at
Jamaica there are now fifty truck horses
of a certain asphalt company. Other race
tracks also look haggard.
The deathblow of the system was
struck when the bookmakers were eXileu
from the New York tracks. Their de-
parture has caused no regret except
among that crowd of hedonists, the book
makers, who smoked cigars spelled with
