MID-CANTERBURY STAKES.
By
SINBAD.
The news that Nos worthy gives out should be by Gordon Coates approved. All shadow of the slightest doubt is from the matter now removed. Although the man who gets things done will find it an unpleasant biz, yet consolation there is one—at least he knows just where he is. To this MidGanterbury goal are pressing now Reformers two. Nosworthy’s going to the poll and Davy Jones is going too. Says Bill: “Who is thus fellow Jones that seeks to pinch from me my seat? I feel it in my very bones his aspirations I’ll defeat.” Says Davy then: “ Y our seat indeed! It’s much less yours than it is mine, and Ellesmere for me will plead. Can I their pleadings then decline? ” Some sporting friends of mine suggest they should decide it by a toss. One, if not both, will soon go west, but , neither man would be a loss.
