There is always some criticism Of the
work of the Judges at any horse show.
At this one the fault was found mostly In
he classes for saddle houres and for
military mounts In the saddle hors"
classes there were many revcrsals. One
horse def, ated one day has been q win
ner under almost the same conditions the
next In the military classes. National
Guard, green horse owned By Major
Howard X. Brown won In "A class prac-
. tically for noyces and later received q
ribbon over seasoned and we'll trained
horses.
In the saddle horse class Macushla
was beaten one day by Woodford and
the next was placed over Woodford, AMI
there was apparently no reason for the
change OF the opinions Of the Judges.
The attendance at the show has been
very good each day. and the committee
and Hamilton II. Salmon secretary, fig
nres that the show will make a gooc
sum OF money out Of It's exhibition. The
