The primary campaign closes today. There is noth- ing that could be said or done from now on that would materially change the resultethat will be recorded to- morrow. Throughout the state there has been a lively conte: for the governorship on the Republican side and for sev- eral of the state offices as well. In many of the coun- ties local contests have given great impetus to the cam- paign. It is now strictly a matter of getting out the vote. Inducing the people to go to the polls and vote for some- body. The Tribune, of course, favors the nomination of John It is Hay. And as has frequently been said in the course of the campaign, we believe a four-year term is sufficient for any person to serve as governor of Wyoming. equal to two twoyear terms prevailing in most o other states. f the We are candid in the belief that John Hay will make a splendid executive. he will fulfill every premise made the people. The whole difference between the two candidates is shown in their attitude toward state expenses and the reduction of bureaus and commissions. We have not the slightest doubt Robert Carey says taxes and expenses cannot be re- duced nor commissions abolished. John Says that expenses can be cut commissions abolished by one-half. reduces taxes, for under an administration of economy and retrenchment there will be le from the people. one-third and This automatically demand for money It is only: seldom that’a candidate of the quality of John Hay offers himself for the service of the people.

The threeday meet here will mark the inauguration of the sea~ son and will find among the starters the best horse flesh in the entire northwest. Following the meet here, the several! strings will go to Douglas, where they have been entered in the speed events at the ‘Wyoming state fair. Later they will swing into the cireult of the Northwest Racing asso- ciation and spend the next two months participating in the biggest race meets in the moumiain states and Pacific regions. Strict rules for entrance have been laid down by the directors of the meet here to guarantée that every horse will be pushed to do its best and that every event will be on the square. Only one entry from each stable will be permitted, but since 21 different owners are represented this will not lessen the number of entries and will increase the interest in the events. ‘The fair grounds-yesteraay after noon resembled Churchill Downs in many. particulars. The speed try- outs, the graceful, spirited racers, the the owners and the racing enthusiasts who are always to be found in the vicinitys of running horses, were all there. Sulkies were being greased and repaired, saddles shined and polished and racing dope both of the coming meet and of fa mous meets throughout the country was dispensed with freely. The rela- tive merits of Morvich and Whiska- way were mentioned in the same breath with comments on the form shown by Nabob, Jim Covell’s entry in the free for-all, in the last try-out. Reminis cences of the season of 1915, when a string of racers from California ap peared here and Pope Hartford, pacer, set the fair grounds track rec ord with a mark of 2:11%. Pope Hartford was driven in this race by Joe McGuire, who was killed two years ago in an automobile smashup in Cleveland. From every indication the meet here the last of the month will be the best in every detail that has been held since 1915 Tre caliber of the horses entered, the number of entries and the variety of events denote a successful meet. ‘Whether local ‘in terest in racing can be keyed up sut- ficiently to assure the bringing to Casper of the best racers in this sec tion of the country annually ts a ques tion.
