such car with intent to steal or to
steal conceal or by fraud or deception
obtain from any railroad car, station
house, depot or platform any goods or
chattels which are part OF an inter

stealing any part of the contents Of a
piece Of baggage also comes under the
provisions of the act, which applies
with equal force to any person who
shall buy, receive or have in his pos
session any freight, express, baggage
or other goods or chattels so stolen
knowing the same to be stolen. The
punishment for any of these offenses
is fine up to five thousand dollars
or Imprisonment up to ten years or
both, and prosecutions may be insti.
tuted in any district where the crime
shall have been committed.
The carrying or transporting by a
person of any feight, express baggage
or goods Of chattels from state or ter.
ritory into another knowing it to
have been stolen constitutes a sepa
rate offense for which the same
punishment is prescribed. Prosecute
ions for such transporting of stolen
property may be instituted in any dis
trict into which the goods or chattels
may have been removed or into which
they may have been brought.
The making Of these acts federal

MAY FORM JOCKEY CLUB
TO RULE IN WEST

Ever since racing went into the dis
card in California many times mas
there been asked the question; Why
the Pacific Jockey club and why
should racing associations tie up with
defunct organization"
Nobody knows just why, but the
fact exists and it's about time to
change, followers of the game be-
lieve.
Why not form Northwestern
locke. club and cease paying money
into a defunct organization which Of
fers little or nothing in return?
There is racing in British Column
bia, this year at least, at Alan, and
Montana while there is a good pros
pect of racing being resumed in 9TH
er western states within a very few
years as the extremists of the oppo-
sition have either faded away or
finally become convinced that racing,
even with betting, can be kept pref
ty clean, as an example, the splendid
and free form scandal meeting COM
ing to a close at Juarez.
Take In Fairs
The tracks whether maintained
strictly for a race meet OF whether
in connection with state and county
fairs, would probably welcome the or
ganization Of such jockey club.
Certainly the Pacific club does no.
thing for the tracks save take their
money coming from licenses, fines
and the like. The club in turn PRO
tects" the associations from out
laws" Perhaps they do, but the Pa.
cific Jockey club seems to be pref
ty insignificant and unimportant or.
ganization just now and it's influence
is absolutely naught.
BY the various fair associations
joining the new organization they
would be doing something bound to
improve the class of racing, short and
limited, In other ways, as such race
programs might be during the fair
season.
An intermountain jockey club could
be formed also to take in the states
of Montana, Minnesota, North and
South Dakota, Colorado, Wyoming,
Utah and Idaho. There seems to be
a very strong opinion prevailing In
racing circles that racing in Utah and
Idaho will be revived within the next
year or two.
There can be no possible objection
to such a movement and immediate
action in the matter should come from
Butte, where the most pretentious
meeting in the west will be held this
wear and next. The other associa-
tons would undoubtedly jump at the
chance to get into strong ruling
body, such as this would be, and put
an end to paying good money into a
dead issue, such as the Pacific Jock
ey club, and get absolutely no re
turn of any account.
