San Francisco, Dec. 29-Horsemen
throughout the world are looking for
ward to what will unquestionabIy be
the greatest events in the history Of
horse racing, the summer and fall
meets at the Panama Pacific exposi-
tfon at San Francisco in 1915.
These events will take place on a
mile track that is proclaimed by ex-
perts who have viewed it the finest
of its kind ever constructed. The
unprecedented amount of $227 900 in
stakes for twenty-four days racing
is offered by the exposition, besides
four purses of $4,000 each, two for
trotters and two for PAGERS, all guar
anteed. The meetings will be held
under the auspices of the Pacific
Coast Trotting Horse Breeders AS
ISOLATION of San Francisco. The big
harness meetings will, from every
point Of view, be Grand Circuit af-
fairs, and the dates have been fixed
so as not to interfere with eastern
meetings scheduled for 1915. After
the summer meeting in June the
horses may be shipped east for the
events in that part of the country
and then returned to San Francisco
in time for the fall meeting in No

"Watchful Waiting" Is
Again Rewarded.

Announcement is made that General
Maytorena has agreed to withdraw
his forces from the Mexican border,
following urgent protest from the
United States against firing across
the border and General Hill, who has
been defending Naco, Sonora, on be-
half Of General Carranza, has agreed
to do likewise. 1t has been agreed
that the withdrawal of either shall
not be followed by pursuit until a
reasonable time shall have elapsed.
This solution of the difficulty which
threatened at Naco will be pleasing
to a vast majority of the people of
this country, although there are a few
scattered about here and there would
have been pleased had necessity aris-
en- for a direct declaration of war on
the part of the United States.
The energetic action of the admin
istration in this instance is commen-
dable and the "watchfuI waiting that
proceeded it, for the purpose of ascer-
tanning exact conditions, was in line
with the conservative policy that has
characterized the administration of
President Wilson.
This country can hardly hope to
bring about peace in Mexico and the
policy of the administration, to allow
the Mexicans to do their own fight
ing until they solve their own prob
Iems seems TO be dictated by wisdom.

both in money and blood. but there is
no doubt that the Mexicans would re-
sent such action, and resentment
would mean a species OF guerilla war
fare which might be carried on for
years.

extensive public park systems of any
city In the country
The mayors plan of taking pne

Impossible to improve and beautify
all Of these parks at once Only by
taking them mp one at a time can
permanent work be accomplished.
There is one thing, however, that
can be done now In which all of the
parks may be included We refer to
the planting of trees. Trees win grow
in an unimproved park Just about
sz well as in an improved one. AS
it takes four years to grow, the sooner
they are planted the sooner will it
be possible to enjoy their shade and
beauty when the parks are finally de-
veloped. Therefore trees should be
planted in all Of the parks this sea-
SON
There are several kinds OF trees that
are peculiar to this semi-tropic elm
ate of ours and all of them are easily
gin to grow. These are the camphor,
the dogwood and the holly. Cam
phor trees may be obtained very
cheaply at the nurseries, and the
woods about Pensacola are full of
dogwoods and holly.
The Journal wants to suggest that
at least a thousand Of these trees
be planted in the city parks this sea-
son. Pecan trees are also suitable
for park purposes and a large num-
ber Of them should be planted as
well.
Late winter is the time to plant
all of these trees. they can all be
easily secured in Escambia county at
a very moderate expense, and the
street and park force can do the
planting.

that the opening days races should
be characterized by TWO events of

that the intrinsic value of these two

Logan and San Felipe are among the
prominent western horses that have
already been entered. San Felipe, a
beautiful trotter unbeaten in his first

of 2:04 IA last season and will be in
