In California Jockey Bullman has beendisciplined sharply for failing to fill anengagement to ride a certain horse Thisis undoubtedly right and proper butwhile horsemen generally will approveof the action taken by the stewards itmust be admitted that similar actionshould be taken against owners who fallto keep specific engagements withjockeys and yet this is a side of thequestion which has been but rarely ex-ploited

The path of the average Jockey Is notusually one bordered with roses and violets If a wellbacked horso falls to winit is upon the jockey that the blamousually falls The horse may have beeninadequately prepared or the trainersInstructions may have been at fault butthe Jockey usually has to shoulder theblame There seems to be no remedyfor this but there Is no reason why theJockey should suffer unnecessary hardships Ono of the most flagrant abusesfrom which Jockeys are made to sufferis this very matter of breaking engagements Two or three days before somerote of more or less importance a Jockeyis engaged to ride ai certain horse andin consequence he may refuse two orthree advantageous offers but when theday and hour of the race arrives perhaps ten minutes before he is expected-to weigh in he is informed that hisservices will not be required Perhapsthe horse may be scratched at the lastmoment or possibly another boy

Dexter belongs to the Boston NationalLeague club and Washington can stillclaim Ryan but It is believed that Inthe cases of both men the major leagueclubs will be prevailed to issue the

preference of the owner whose wishesare allowed to override the engagementmade by the trainer

In this way the Jockey is deprived ofeverything that might accrue to him forthe riding of the race Of course heloses his fee to begin with but shouldthe race be one of Importance that Isapt to be but a small part of the loss inDieted upon him His reputation is hiscapital and he is denied the chance ofmaking a name for himself in that raceand as most Of the presentday Jockeysare growing boys who must make haywhile the sun shines that may mean agreat deal That very ride might havebeen the means by which he would havesecured a profitable contract with one ortwo years to run Under such circumstances the payment of a fee for a winning mount Is a wholly inadequate compensation for the boy who is compelled-to watch the race from the ground

Besides this it often happens that anastute trainer or owner engages a goodboy without any Intention of letting himride He simply desires that he shall notride any other horse in the race and tothat end holds him under engagementuntil the last moment This Is aparticularly objectionable asbesides inflicting loss andthe Jockey It is to reach the ownerof some other possible contender in therace who suffers for lack of the ser-vices of a capable Jockey

This Is a subject that shout be takenup by well wishers of fat play and goodracing so that some me JIB may be provided for the suppression of suchabuses
