Ridden out to the last ounce, though he
led the field front start to finish, Colin,
James , R. Keene's great 8-year-old,
whom rumor had It yesterday had
broken down, stood a game drive
through the stretch in the Belmont
stakes this afternoon and added another
victory to his fourteenth straight un
beaten record. , . '.
In a track knee deep with mud and
with the view of the spectators ob
scured by a heavy mist, the great horse
showed In front when entering the
stretch, and although Fair Play made
a bid for first honors, closing stride
for' stride with the Keene colt, he could
never get beyond the black colt. 'When
the Commando colt came back to the
scales to be weighed In, thousands
-rushed across the fawn to get better
view of one of the greatest American
horses ever seen. The demonstration
which followed the victory demonstrated
the love people have for a great horse.
It was a day of high-class racing and
marked the closing day of- the spring
meeting.

Under this law no definite number of

the recommendation of the State Mili

Sufrttona,
This amendment is revolutionary In
the extreme. Its purpose is to cast
Upon real estate- substantially - all- the
burden of taxation and would com
Dletely change the system now and
heretofore In effect In this state. No
such radical measure should be support
ed by the people without the fullest and
most oareful i consideration. In view
of the purely speculative and theoret
ical, reasons advanced la Its favor, the
uncertainty of Its action and the fact
that but limited time has been given
for its .consideration, we feel it would
be extremely . unwise to adopt this
amendment

We" believe that experience has dem

be found by a grand Jury. The only ar
gument urged in favor of the present
method by which a District Attorney
can file an Information against a man
for any crime Is because it Is cheaper.
In our opinion It . will not do to weigh
the expenditure of money against fund
amental principles.
