effect that such a demand in the Senate
would have upon the House, where the re-
publicans have proportionately much
smaller majority. There was. however,
general understanding that the republicans
should have a clear majority on all COM

Papers Note Goodness Toward Britain
and Blame Chamberlain.
LONDON. December Gall the morning
papers have editorials on President Nc
kinley's message. Here are extracts:
From the Daily Telegraph.
What differentiates the present from pre-
ceding messages is its all but formal ad-
mission that the United States have been
drawn into the outer eddies of eastern
politics 1t Is the far east which is the
real reason for this partial abandonment of
Monroefsm. So far as Great Britain is con-
rather. unqualified satisfaction at the new
departure.
From the Daily Mail
Commercial expansion is the dominant
note. The utmost cordially is expressed
toward Germany. and the Presidents tone
toward England Is distinctly friendly.
Shipping subsidies are plainly limited at. If
Congress carries these into effect British
ship owners will have to break through all
rings and enter upon a new epoch of en-
terprise.
From the Daily News.
Mr.. Chamberlain will find but cold COM
fort If he reads between the lines of the
message While it urges a good under
standing with all countries, it is not effu-
sive toward our own. If it sins anywhere
in that way it is for the benefit Of Ger
many. and Americans will do all in their
power to make the two countries the best
of friends.
From the Standard.
He is friendly to us. but does not mean to
be fervid Toward Germany, on the other
hand, he is very cordial. The reference to
"entangling alliances would probably have
been omitted if certain speech at Leices-
ter had not been delivered.
From the Daily Chronicle.
Toward Germany Mr. McKinley's friendly
expressions have quite a noteworthy en-
phass, and If his tone is a shade cooler
IN nnt,a tryyI QUA 70,
the unlucky exaggerations of Mr.. Cham
berlain.
From the Morning Post.
His language regarding Great Britain Is
cordial but cautious His statements in re-
lation to the new possessions of the United
States are. much less emphatic than those
which he used during the summer and au-
tumn in his speeches.

OBJECTS TO MUZZLING.
DR.. French Dissents From Proposed
Order.

Dr. Cecil French, a veterinary surgeon,
today addressed a communication to the
health officer of the District concerning a
phase of the subject, lately under discus
sion, of protection against rabd animals.
He says, in part:
Your favor of the I'd instant, in which
you suggest that it might become advisable
to urge the PRONUNCIATION by the Commits
sioners of general muzzling order against
the dogs of the District, impels me to place
myself record as dissenting from the
view that such a procedure would bring
about the eradication of rabies in this Dis
trict 1t is, of course, obvious that under
such an ENJOYMENT only those dogs of an
owner would be found to wear muzzles
when on the. streets, while all the tramps
and outcasts would still roam the high
ways at perfect liberty to bite and snap at
whatever came in their way, be it man,
horse or dog.
From observations and inquiries that I
have made from time to time during the
past few years when outbreaks of the dis
ease have occurred, l cannot come to any
other conclusion than that the ownerless
tramp Is the main cause of the spread of
rabies Such strange dogs have always
been described to me as of the cur type.
When the wandering cur has thus planted
the infection behind him in his domiciled
brethren there is not such great danger
that they in turn will become a menace to
other dogs. | think l am safe in asserting
that there is no record in the health de-
partment or a person having been bitten by
a rabid dog which was not either an owner
less tramp or on the premises of its owner
at the time of the occurrence. So that the
blame for this must fall back on the orig
inally infected animal
There are great many dogs at large
and though the poundmaster and his as
sistants continually decimating them
their numbers constantly recruited
from the neighboring country districts AS
long as the neighboring states of MARYLAND
and Virginia, which without exaggeration
are hotbeds of this disease, exert no meas
ures to exterminate the canine nomads
roaming the borderland of the District
the disease will find it's way within the
limits with which we are more particularly
concerned, even were the health depart-
ment able to destroy every ownerless dog
found within it's jurisdiction. This lax
state of affairs does not exist wholly among
our neighbors, for 1t is only a little over
one year ago that there came to nv notice
the presence of a band or nest of semi-wild
dogs in Rock Creek Park, not mile from
Mount Pleasant.
But much could be done to lessen the
danger were the facilities in the hands Of
the health officer propoftionate to the re-
quirements. The pound corps. should be in
creased four or five fold. In Eorder that an
active campaign may be not only com
menced, but maintained against this evil
The District receives annually a consider
able sum of money in taxation of dogs
Could not little legislation. be effected to
divert these few thousands toward main

1t is one of the most important messages

The annual message which President Nc

frankness. He is not of those who believe
that language was made to conceal rather
than reveal thought. He treats all topics
which make up the message with perfect
candor worthy of the chief magistrate of
an intelligent people. 1t is a document
which stamps its author as broad-minded,
accomplished, conscientious statesman
