AS TO RACETRACKS


A correspondent writes in friendly tone to The Mis-
souian suggesting that have become hysterica upo1
the subject of racetrack gambling This correspondent
says he feels that have overstated the situation
exists in Butte.
The contrary is true. The N1issouan instead Of over
stating the sitaon has told the half of what has beer
going in Butte we know it, and we that w
know comparatively little Of the tragedy of the
racetrack frenzy through which the big mining city il
passing
The Mssoulian is told upon good authority that there
fully 20 divorce pending in Silver Bow which are
directly attributable to the racerack and its associations
One of the Butte newspapers the other day carried story
of the horsewhppng OF negro tout by the husband OF the
who had fallen under the influence Of the dark
skinned steerer Of the betting ring. And here is story
which told not long ago, to the editor OF he Mis-
soulian, and which is vouched for absolutely true

nothing compared with the experience Of who hav

mania
We wonder if our correspondent thinks that we hav
overstated the situation now We wonder how he wou

jockeys and stable boys ostng and pushing and seeking
for "a tip How would he feel to find his wife or his sise
hobnobbing with the of the earth which nests tn
gambling circle at the races2
The sad and simple story of domestic tragedy whicl
have told here this morning should be sufficient to con
friendly critic that have not become hysterca
And should convince those who read that the time ha
to put stop to racetrack gambling in Montana.
And we do not mean by this that this gambling shou'
be permitted for week for two weeks We mean
should not be permitted at allnot for single day.

SETBACK FOLLOWS
NEW YOR KRALLY

NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-A slight rally
after the opening today was followed
by setback which carried most Of the
active stocks down below yesterdays
closing, and in some instances below
yesterdays low figures. Most of the
general news was rather bad.
The half-feared reduction Of the rate
of discount by the Bank of England
did not materialize, the bank maintain
Ing The rate at per cent, but the order
Of the Interstate Commerce Commission
that the Southern Pacific and other lines
maintain the existing rates on lumber
from California and Nevada points was
very effective In spreading a spirit OF
pessimism, it being thought that this
discounted the recent opinions that the
Commission had gotten to point where
1t believed the railroads were suffering
by reason of the low rates.
Copper prices were hurt by the reduc-
ton of the price Of the metal in Lon
don 91. Cables said that there was
really no reason for this cut except ru-
mors of cuts made in this country,
which had caused all buying to cease
abruptly, with a consequent drop in
Amalgamated Copper dropped to 73S,
recovering to "A, from a high of 74A.
which high was point below the high

I The official organ OF the association, THE
Military Surgeon" severely criticises the
War Department in an editorial in the
September issue. saying:
Heretofore at the meetings OF the as
sociaton the army, navy and. public
health service have had delegations
strong both in numbers and merit This
year, for the first time in the history OF
the association, the representa- ton as 10
numbers is meagre In the case Of the
army only one delegate has been as
signed. and the reason for this Is said 10
be the provision that no funds are avail
able or shall be spent TO send medical
officers TO medical meetings.
There seems TO be no lack OF willing
ness nor OF money to send line officers
all over the country for all sorts OF pur-
poses. even for the intensely technical
military matter OF polo When. however,
members OF the staff corps wish TO go
to conventions which have for their OBJ
iect the discussion of technical matters
il appears 10 be very convenient for the
authorities in Washington to quote this
law and TO tell applicants that no funds
are available for this purpose.
In time of necessity or crisis the role
of the medical officer is more importapt
than that Of the officer OF any other staff
corps. In his work the latest and most
scientific knowledge is Indispensable

edge by barring him from conferences

to "FanS" in Tribune
Will Criticise and Comment on
Games of Worlds Series.
LEADS LEAGUE IN HITTING
Popular Captain of Brooklyn
Superbas Likely to Make
His Biggest Hit"

Jake Daubert, the popular captain OF
the Brooklyn Superbas, will talk ex-
clusively 10 the fans" through the
columns of The Tribune and SO give
his views on the games played for the
worlds baseball championship between
the New York Giants and the Philadel-
phia Athletics, beginning in this city
on October I.
Daubert will not write himself or
sign what somebody else has written,
but none the less will comment on and
criticise the players and the plays Of
the two opposing teams in his own way
and largely in his own words.
In this way the fans and other
readers Of The Tribune will get the
opinion Of a man who knows what ii Is
TO he on the field OF play, the obstacles
and difficulties to be overcome, and all
the intricacies Of latter day inside base
ball.
No player. perhaps, is better qualified
10 watch the games and pass judg-
first basemen in the history OF the
sport and as field leader has few
equals. When IL comes to baseball his
keen brain seems 10 work automati-
cally, while his quick perception and
sound judgment to say nothing Of his
consistent hitting has counted largely
for the Brooklyn rine this season.
Jake Daubert is popular not only
with the fans" of Brooklyn but with
lovers of baseball in this city, as much
for his forceful If usually quiet de-
meanor on the field as for his remark
able skill IN fielding his position and
slamming out the ball when at the bat.
He is the type Of ball player that COM
mands admiration, and for that reason
his opinions are bound 70 be respected.
Daubert is the real leader among the
batsmen of the National League.
