of as great greater importance to the community
but IT is perfectly certain that there is none at the

week, on any other subject. 1t is good thing to
have national attention concentrated for little time
on athletics. 1t means larger understanding Of the

THE REAL FIGHT IS AHEAD.

1t is the testimony of substantially everybody in
close touch with legislative conditions Capitol Hill
that President Wilson today faces much more diff
fcult situation than he did at any time during the
consideration of the tariff measure. 1t is quite
within moderation to say that whereas there never
was real and serious danger of revolt against his
tariff measure in such force to endanger its
passage, there is the utmost menace of just such
revolt against his currency measure.
The President may yet succeed in his efforts to
extend control over the members of his party and
line them up for the bill that he has adopted his
own. But that has yet to be done; it has not been
done at this time. The revolt is wider and more in
sistent than confronted the tariff measure or
any particular schedule of that measure. The Pres
dent squarely faces the struggle which not unlikely
will determine the failure of his legislative
program
The division among Democratic Senators is what
menaces the Administrations position. 1t is a d.
vision based on wholly creditable motives and am
bitions honest differences of opinion about the
kind of legislation that ought pass. That kind of
difference is not easily to be put down or CLOSED
over by appeal to the patronage power or usistcnce
on the rule of party solidarity regardless OF convic
tions
There has been intimation that TIE President may
iSHt~ ulc charge, WHICH He H1dQe QUIlHS tnS
bills consideration, that there is active and in
sdious lobby work to defeat his currency measure
The President could bring proofs to support that
charge, but the proofs would mainly take the form
of multitudnous letters which members Of Congress
have received from bankers ana business men,
frankly discussing the pending ard aisisng
as to its probable effects This may be lobbying il
may be active lobbying; but its insdious character
will be gravely doubted. The average conscientious
and intelligent legislator needs, wants. and encour-
ages this kind of assistance in formulating his ideas
and attaining grasp of such situation.
Currency legislation, by general agreement. is
needed. But the right kind is needed, and there is
woeful lack of detailed information or settled con-
vction to what is the right kind. If it be true as
is widely stated that the smaller national banks would
very generally surrender their charters rather than
accept the proposed legislation, then that legislation
would be failure There are men, quite as eager to
get results the President, and quite as anxious to
do the right thing, who gravely doubt if the pendingI
measure would help the country; who even fear that
it would do more harm than good; and they seem dis
posed to insist upon full hearing before their views
shall be rejected and overridden. In this condition.
together with the dangerously narrow Democratic ma
ority in the Senate, lies the danger to the Admin
stration.

which will begin September l and con-
tinue for eighteen days, are nearing COM
pletion. That more horses will partici-
pate in the racing at this meet than at
the two previous ones is assured by the
fact that the breeders association has a
force of men erecting stabling for the
housing Of more than 100 additional
horses At the spring meet application
was made for stabling 1.5OO horses. but
the association could provide accommoda-
tons for but 100. In order to have as
many strings represented as possible, Sec
rotary Kehberger had to resort to the
weeding-out process, providing for only
such thoroughbreds as would be likely to
participate in the racing. With the
stables in this city open 1t is believed
that provision can be made for 1000
thoroughbreds at the coming meet.
Judging from the prominent race horse
owners who have made application for
the housing of their strings, the coming
meet will be marked by the best racing
ever seen on this track. Among the large
stables which will be represented are
August Belmont, Capt. p: B. Cassatt. H.
Johnson, H. G. Bedwell, Quincy stables.

Bryant pitched a very creditable game,
despite his being hit for ten safeties. He
was effective in almost every inning except
the two in which four of the runs were
scored. Two successive two-base hits
yielded one run in the fifth, and four in
the seventh caused the scoring Of three
tallies If Bryant would learn some kind
OF a wind-up. SO that he could get the
full strength of his body into his deliv-

his curve would break better and he
would be able to get more speed on the
ball.
