Last .Night
At the Annualllllleetlng of
` ciation - Interesting _Dis-
"cussion on the fair and
. Races- ~
The annual meeting of the Charlotte-
town Driving Park and Exhibition
Association was held last night.
'l‘he'e was a slim attendance.
Mr. F. L. Haszard. President of the
Asscciafion, presided and gave a re-'
view of the year`s transactions, pointing
out that the published sitiitemaht showed
the result, including the race receipts
and :il-owhitt the df-ticit wtuld have
been for the year had no race meeting
been held?
Mr. C. R. Sinallwood. Secrelary,then
read the directors’ report. .
t M". Sinallwood also read ii letter re-
f ceivt-d by him some time ago from the
ment hid not seen t‘ic.r way clear to
vote a g'ant for exhihition purposes.
' The Preszdont moved the adoption ot
the report, seconded by Mr. F. H.
Boer.
Mr. R. B. Norton criticised ceitain
narts of the aonuil st-itement and en-
logized others.
Judge Warburton pointed out that the
people are becoming tired of horse rac-
ing. However. he believed the Associ-
lation should have a race next year
leven if there be no exhibition. He did
,not consider the cout ty exhibitions
were ever ot any bent-fit but one

had outl ved its us fulness He favored
. an interprovincial exhibition #but some
outside of Queen’s County were oppos-
;ed to it. We now must stop holding
,exhibitions or have one open to the
llitlaritime Provinces. He saw no rea-
son why in view of this the city of
Charloltetoyvii would not donate $2,000
to the prize list. It would be money
wt-ll invested, and would be of im-
mense benefit to the city, to the prov-
inch and to the provinces.

er were retained when they were eating
up all the profit from the other por ion
-llc favored disposing of the unprofit-
able section since the country did not
‘I evidentlv appreciate the saoiitice of the

the Drivlng` Park Asso-'
i Mr. E. H. Norton could not under.-.l
menting an inter-provincial prize list.
Mr, F. H. Beer believed that we
from Halifax and St. John exhibitions
had an exhibition been held in Chat-
lottetown for this province alone. `
Mr. John Richards and Mr. Hector
McLeod did not believe that horse racing
was on the decline.' Mr. Richards
hoped to see an exhibition here next
year,-one only. He did not believe
Prince County people exclusive of those
in the towns would object to this if
freight privileges Were extended to
them. . _ _
Mr. George E. Hughes thought that
horse racing must still have been popular
when the deficit is so small after an ex-
penditure ot $679 exclusive of prizes;
for two afternoon’s racing._ Some of
the items of expenditure might be eu-
in two. To have a capital of of $24,-
000 depending on two afternoons of the
year appeared to him to he radically
wrong. Let the grounds and buildings
cfear of the race track be leased to the
government fora term of years to con-
duct the exhibition on their own account.
Mr. Jas. Paton also thought several
items of expeiiditure too high. ,
Mr. E. H. Noiton condemned the de-
lay last fall in calling on the heats and;
the fee of 25 cents for the grand
stand .
Mr. C. C. Gardiner stated that pro-
minent firmers in Prince and Kings
Counties did not favor County exhibi-
tions. No government would take the
like Mr. Richards, that an interprovin-
cial exhibition should be tested for one
year at least.
J udge Fitzgerald stated that the gov- _
ernment had expressed to delegations of
which he was a member, the utmost ~
satisfaction with these institutions. The i
work of exhibitions is only just begin-, 1
ning in this province_. We must pro-l
gross. It would be a sad day in the '
history of our province were exhibitions
to cease. Sell our building ? No, sir,
go ahead by all means.
Mr. L. L. Beer believed the best edu-
cative factor would be to bring the`
meinbers of our local government t-i
these annual meetings so that they
might better grasp the actual position
in whicR we are placed. He favored
sending the annual statement audio cir-
cular letter to each meniber.  __ 1!

expenses thistyear were le»s"ll_iiin_ hall”
those of ,last year. ' " _ ` ~ '
All expanses. except perhaps adver-
tising',‘ha_d been out down this year to
the lowest possible point." He referred
to the arduous dufies of the ' Secretary.
which remark was strongly supported
by Judge Warburton, the late Secre-
tary.
On motion the report was adopted. ' _
Judge Warburton moved and council-
lor Craboe seconded that in the opinion
of this meeting a race should be held
in 1899. Whether or not there be an
exhibition. ‘ 6
The motion was carried.
_Ona ballot being taken. the old
board of directors were re-elected, viz.,
Messrs. F. L. Haszard, Judge Fitzger- _t
ald, J.J. Davies, C. C. Gardiner, F. Hp
Beer, Hector McLeod and E. R. '
Brow. '
Mr. L. L. Beer moved that the two
last annual reports and the memorial
sent to the government be embodied in `
a circular letter and sent to every
member of our lrcal legislature, also
all other information the directors may
see til to submit. C J
Mr; John Newson seconded the.
motion which wai c ~r ied unitniniously. 
Themeeting then adjourned.
