Ell PASO, Tex, Jan. l6.-Quite Il hare
rain last night made the going heavy al
the Juarez track today and caused such
wholesale scratching that two OF the
original programmed events were de-
clared off and two selling scrambles sub
stituted, each OF which filled fairly well
and were run as the fourth and sixth
races.
Favorites and second picks, all al
rather short odds. won the card. Two
of the winners were ridden by j. Groth

Judge C. F. Price was again absent
from the. track this afternoon as yes
terday. from his duties as presiding
steward. He is not very i'll, but has been
advised by his physician to remain in
doors for few days.
The speedy mare Goldfnn strained
herself In her stall last night and the
Injury will keep her from racing for sew,
eral weeks though 1t is by no means OF
permanent character.
Jockeys j. Rooney and r. Seldcn have
gone to their homes In California. They
were permitted by the stewards to ride
for only the stable which had hired
them. and as both lost out with their
employers they were compelled to remain
idle. Both boys seem TO have completely
lost their usefulness as Jockeys. They
will probably find ii difficult to ever
again secure license to ride on any
OF the big tracks. Today's results:

ervstion Of public safety"
Speaker o. c. Skinner contends that
the clause will prevent referendum
on the bill that might be sought by en-
emies Of the measure. The clause Is
not the ordinary emergency" clause
attached to emergency bills hitherto
but il one that has been used In Ore
gon bills with special intention to pre-.
vent referendums. The Oregon gu
preme Court has hello that bill con-
tanning the clause cannot be referred.
