though that large number will be

that each one will bring a goodly
number of workers with him. The
racing program this year looks like
it will be the best one ever offered
as there are quite a number Of
horses entered in each event.
Horses from several State will con-
test for the purses which, consider
ing the size Of the city, ETC., are ex-
tremely liberal.

FAIR CROWD
HEARS STANLEY
Speaks in this City Saturday After
noon to Crowd of Less than
Two Hundred.

Mr.. A. o. Stanley, candidate for
the Democratic nomination for
Governor, spoke in this city Satur-
day afternoon to crowd of less
than than two hundred, by actual
count. He was introduced by Mr..
j. Coleman Reid, who paid him a
high tribute. He failed to arouse
any enthusiasm, however, except
when he paid beautiful tribute to
President Woodrow Wilson.
While sarcastic at times, he was
not as bitter as usual and on the
whole his speech was well received.
His main criticism of his leading
opponent, Mr.. McChesney, was bas-
ed upon the latter having repre-
scented corporation as lawyer.
This, Of course, falls with its own
weight when the facts are known.
Mr.. McChesney recently referred to
this part Of Mr.. Stanley's speech
as follows:
Gin his Bowling Green speech
last Monday, Mr.. Stanley, the can
didate for the liquor interests in the
race for Governor, criticised the
character of my law practice be-
cause l make a speciality of taxa
ton matters and represent a number
Of the smaller public service COM
panies Of the State before the Board
of Valuation and Assessment at the
Capital.
"The law gives these companies
the right to hearing before the
board when they desire it, just as
any citizen is allowed hearing be-
fore the County Board of Super
viors when his assessment is made
higher than he thinks is just, and
so the practice is clean and legiti-
mate; and / am not answering Mr..
Stanley's attack upon the idea that
the character of my law practice
need any defense, but solely to show
who this man is that seeks to divert
attention from the real issue of the
campaign by resort to his usual
methods of cheap demagogy. 4
"Th[s is the same Mr.. Stanley |
that voted Henderson county
against the county unit plank in
the platform convention at Louis !
vile our years ago, and tried to
induce Mclean county delegations
to bolt its dry instructions and vote ,
wet; he is the same Mr.. Stanley
that voted against the Webb Kenyon
bill in Congress, and who now loud !
ly proclaims himself a temperance
man. With defeat staring them in
the face liquor interests and their
candidates are growing desperate,
hence Mr.. Stanley's Bowling Green
outbreak"

Cattle.
Cattle arrivals proved more numer-
Gus than could be readily disposed OF.
Killers and the shippers are not
complaining Of bad order of things In
beef trade, as was the case snort
time ago, but it is evident that con-
sumers purchasing power is not great
~ expanded to date, altho little bet
ter Industrial Situation, which is ap-
parent now, is, Of course, having et-
feet in creating some little broadening
of the beef outlet.
It is apparent, however, that lot OF
owners are DESTROYS of casling cattle
before the rush of spring planting pc
gins and the recent oetterment IN
prices only served as an inducement to.
ship freely this week. Erasure OF
part of the gain made la week leaves
the market but a few points up from
low levels shown two weeks ago, and
there must be cautious shipping TO
prevent further price recession Kill
ers. however. are carrying no material
surplus stocks of beef. and their Will
ingness to absorb generous Monday
run. which proved largest had mere in
weeks past we'll evidenced the facs
that carcasses at current cost are not
looked upon by them as dear property.
Both Texas and Colorado appear TO
have considerable beef really to dump
into the market hopper during the next
few weeks. The Texas crop is some
what late. but feed IS abundant and
it will be fat. Owing to the large pro-
portion of Mexican and young native
Texas stuff, there will, however. be
deficiency in tonnage. The Colorado
crop is normal, if not larger than usual
and in good condition.
PENNSYLVANIA will soon begin cutting
loose. but everywhere else in territory
east of Chicago is supply anywhere
near normal as little has been put in
