ously plunged in persistently claiming the advent of motor ve¬ 
hicles and the decadence of the horse. The journal mentioned 
has abandoned its crusade against the light harness horse, and 
even pitches into the cynics who dared to insinuate that his 
popularity was waning. Its account of the recent grand New 
York Speedway parade of road horses was the most flattering 
testimonial that we have ever seen recorded by the best friends 
the horse ever had, and his future is pictured in the most rose¬ 
ate terms. Having become convinced by ocular demonstration 
that the inanimate machine can have but little part in man’s 
pursuit of pleasure, if will require but a few months more to 
bring forth a similar declaration with regard to family equipa¬ 
ges for convenience, style, and pleasure, while only a little 
longer time will be necessary to show the fanatics that for busi¬ 
ness or any other purpose the horse is cheaper, better, and more 
reliable than any other motive power, and the luve of the masses 
for his beauty and faithfulness will ever keep him installed in 
the high place that has been his since the beginning of time.
