TBtE DUNEDIN JOCKEY CLUB 1 RACES. TO THE KDITOU. Sm, —In leaving you I would like to say that I am sorry your sporting writer considers a plain statement ot tact as abuse. What is abuse of ourselves is criticism of the other fellow. He quotes a number of other writers “working independently ’’ who make certain statements, i am more than pleased to know they " worked independently,” as it marks a red-letter ‘ day in race reporting. The usual course is for one man to “call tho race and the others to write. In all the cases mentioned of interference, etc., one writer mentions what horse interfered with tho sufferer. Probably nine of 10 of the men who back a horse which is beaten consider that that particular horse received the most “ interference.” The stipendiary watches the field generally as far as is humanly possible. with no other interest Ilian clean tunning, and, when a horse drops back suddenly, .looks for the causes, which are various. Tho punter immediately calls it “ interference. —1 am, etc.. C. W. L. Murchison. [Mr Murchison’s three letters to us marl, a progressive descent on his part. He began with a protest against what ho wa: pleased to describe as unfair comment oi our part. Met with a justification of our comments, he took refuge in abuse. ■'lonfronted with confirmation of those comments from various sources, he now resorts to innuendo of a distinctly contemptible kind. Mr Murchison’s suggestion that tha sporting writers do not work independently of each other at race meetings merely betrays his ignorance of the subject. — Ed. O.D.T.] ;
