SARATOGA PLANS FOR

SPORT IS STIMULATED

Saratoga is planning to be in the
front rank of racing centers next
eeason, according to the New York
World. Not content with the fine
meeting it held this year, the Saratoga
Racing association will offer in 1913
more money than it did this year.
When one considers that the track at
the Spa distributed $l27050 during
August it viii be seen that the di-
rectors will have to open their purse
strings to improve on that amount.
This year the programme called for
purses and stakes worth $4,000 day.
Next year $4,000 day will he dis
tributed among the turfmen. The in.
crease Of $1,000 day shows better
than words can tell that the meeting
in 1918 was profitable one-proftable
beyond the anticipations OF the stock
holders. OF the S127,050. $4,000 was
donated by the owners fund and
$1,000 contributed by the citizens OF
Saratoga. The remainder of the money
paid out to the owners came out of the
treasury of the association. So it will
be seen from this that the association
was well patronized in order to meet
that big outlay and TO reimburse the
association for other necessary e1-
prpditures

Funds From Merchants.

With this big increase in the values
and nominations for the stakes-which
means increased patronage at the gate
and greater number of horsemen TO
take part in the meeting-the directors
of the Saratoga Racing association hope
that the merchants of Saratoga will be
more liberal in the subscriptions in 1914
than they were in 1913. In the spring
of 1913. when notices were published
that the Saratoga track would reopen,
a delegation of Saratoga merchants
called on the officials of the Saratoga
Racing association and assured them
that they (the merchants) would SUBJ
scribe literally TO the fund for purses
and stakes. These merchants said that
they had had two lean years without
racing and that they were anxious to
have il "come back because the sport
was necessary for the financial welfare
of the village. Enc outraged by the mer-
chants statement, the directors of the
track anticipated contribution of
$4,000. But when the subscription book
started on its way the merchants con-
scriptions were two of 500 each One
merchant, who benefits more from the
racegoers than any other citizen Of the
village, placed his name on the list
for S25. This niggardly donation
caused no end of adverse comment.
Nine New Stake Events.
Nine new stake events which are
guaranteed by the owners fund, will
bc run off next year, These stakes
will be split up between the various
racing associations which win offer rae
ing meetings. Four of them are
for 2-year-olds. four for 9-year-
olds and the remaining one is the
mile and r quarter affair that Is TO be
decided at Syracuse after the close of
the season at Saratoga In the framing
Of these prizes the money has been di-
vided in manner that will suit the
greatest number of horses. Each event
has value that makes IL notable.
The owners fund has set aside $4,000
FOR stake that will be offered at Eyra-
cuse. This is evidence that the up-
state city will swing into the racing cir
cult held in New York. Last fall a
short meeting was held at Syracuse
and was so well patronized that the cit.
liens of that city asked to have great.
or meeting, of at least a week 's durn-
tion, at the state fair track next year.
With $4,000 added to the Syracuse stake
that event will probably reach nearly

Record Entry of PhilIies.

The Spinaway stakes, race for
three-yenr- old FLIES, with $1,000 added,
has received 106 entries, record of
nominations for this event. In no year,
not even when this stake was worth
$4,000. has that number of fillies been
entered %h-ee year-old FLIES, as a
rule, are scarce This is due to the fact
that the FLIES, when three-year-olds
are raced excessively and have to be
retired to the stud at the end of the
season. The big entry list in the
Spinaway would tend to show that the
two-year-old fllies this year were not
injured by racing, and that there will
be z great many ready for the cam
paign next year.
The Hopeful stakes, one of the $17,-
600 events when racing was in its
glory at Saratoga, viii be q guarantee
affair Of $4,000 next year. This season
the Hopeful had $1,000 added, and was
not worth more than S2500- The stake
has already filed with $50 entries,
which iusures not only the guarantee
of $4,000 for next season, but in all
probability will make the stake worth
nearly $4,000.

Rebuke to Pessimists.

Pessimists during the two years the
race track in this state remained
closed raised the cry that racing was
dead--that the former patrons of the
sport took 40 interest in its proposed
revival, and that the breeding of
Thoroughbred horses in this country
WAS practically wiped out. The crowd
OF 25.0UO persons that attended the
urening day at Belmont Park, and the
l5.u0u spectators present at Saratoga

Another action that Is under consdera-
ton Is the Withdrawing from the two

While Princeton always has been noted
for the cleanncss OF her athletics and the

fluencing his vote as a member of the
legislature for United States senator.
This close relationship of Mr.. Day
to Senator Clark at once branded"
him in the eyes of that element of the
democratic party known as the "Daly
wing" which had long been fighting
Clark, and which Whiteside was ac-
credited with representing in his spec,
tacular expose referred to.
After the death of Mr.. DAILY, the old
Clark-Daly fight commenced gradual
ly to subsde, and except for occasional
flashes has appeared exhausted for
lack of fuel to keep it alive. But i,
appears that when Mr.. Day again APP
peared on the scene, and sought dis
tinguished honors at the hands of his
party, it had the effect of kindling
anew the flame of hatred so long
dormant, which has now burst forth
with renewed life and energy to con.
sumo this ambition.
Mr.. Day was a friend and lieutenant
of Senator Clark, and Mr.. Whiteside
was an accredited friend and lieu
tenant of Mr.. DAILY. Mr.. Day may
have thought that Mr.. Whtesde and
other DAILY cohorts had forgotten the
things of the past. If so, he appears
to have reckoned without his host, for
Whiteside seems to have been on the
job with his memory good and strong,
only awaiting an opportunity to act.
He surely appears to have made good
and gotten Mr.. Days goat" And he
had the votes Of the accredited ANAL
gamated members to help him do the
work Evidently Banquo's ghost hasn't
anything on that of the late Marcus

Helena, Jan 7.-(Staff Correspond
ence.)-The action of the democratic
caucus in selecting Mr.. Macdonald
over Mr.. Day for the speakership of
the house of representatives was
brought about through the influence
of Senator Fred Whteside of Flathead
Macdonald forces in the fight.
This action on the part of Whiteside
is very significant. 1t will be recalled
that Whiteside was a member of the
famous legislature which first elected
w. A. Clark to the United States SEN
ate, where so much scandal was de-
veloped, and where regulations were
bartered and sold like SO much mer-
chandise, and in connection with which
Whiteside dramatically walked down
the aisle of the house of representa-
tives when the legislature was in joint
session and about to consummate the
carnival of corruption and debauchery
and deposited on the desk of the
speaker a package containing 100000
which he claimed had been furnished
in the interest of w. A. Clark for the
purchase of votes necessary for his
election.
At that time Mr.. Day was also a
member of the legislature and q warm
supporter Of Senator Clark, and who
later, when called to testify before the
federal senatorial investigating cons
mittee at Washington, was obliged to
admit that he had about that time re-
ceived the sum of $4,000 from Mr.
Clark, which he justified by saying
was a payment for services rendered

paign, and not for the purpose of in
