AUGUSTA LOCALS.
A CONTROVERSY.
President Jolly Of Maine Veterinary
Association Stirs Up One.
His Assertions Replied to by Chairman Peters
oi Massachusetts Cattle Board.

President Jolly of Waterville, seems to
| address before the Maine Veterinary
Medical Association, Thursday even
, ing. He devoted some time to a con-
sideratiOn of the methods of cattle in
spection at present employed in the
state of Massachusetts, calling them
nothing but a farce" He complained
of the fact that while the laws of the
state required the tuberculin tests
seven -eighths of the cattle shipped u
its markets are certified to by nom
graduates and that these certificates are
manufactured, or in other words that
the test is not applied.
The speaker urged the members to
join issues with the Changers in order
to change these conditions. "Once We
are Grangers," he said, 1--WE can pre-
vail upon the Changers of Massachu-
setts to have their Legislature investi-
gate the matter, for / am sorry to be
obliged to say that the cattle commits
sioners of Massachusetts are looking
for their salaries first. the performance
of their duties being of secondary i'm
portance."
h'St doSci lloilS nave tollt " tllc
eye of the chairman of the Massachu-
setts board of cattle commissioners,
DR.. Austin Peters. DR.. Peters replies
10 them in the following manner in an
interview printed in an exchange:
IF DR.. Jolly has any evidence to back
up his charges of fraud, he will do his
duty and at the same time confer IA
vor upon the board by putting that evil
dence in our hands.
The state insists that all cattle sent
in here from other places be accompan-
led by certificates of tests for tuber-
culosis, and the drovers don't like il,
as when the animal reacts it is con-
demned and the drover loses. For this
reason drovers and others for years
have protested against the law.
Under the law there is a chance for
dishonesty on the part of veterinaries.
but that is not the fault of the board,
as one might think by reading Dr.
Joly's attack.
Under the law the drover who pays
for the testing of the cattle selects the
veterinary. If that veterinary is hon
est, all right: if he is not the law may
be evaded. Because of dishonesty in
TINS respect there are many Veterin6-
ries whose certificates we will not ac-
cept.
'As to DR.. Joly's talk about tests be-
ing made by non-graduates, that is
misleading in a way. One might easily
believe that he meant tests We're made
by persons lacking medical skill, when
as a matter of fact he refers to tests
made by veterinaries who are not COL
lege graduates. All the board asks is
that man be intelligent. skilful and
honest, and it will receive his certifi-
Gates, whether he is college graduate
or not, and as a matter of fact there
are many of these men whom DR.. Jolly
calls non-graduates whose certificates
are always accepted, while certificates
of graduates whom We know to be dis
honest are refused"

A C ommunication.
Editors Kennebec Journal:

Editors kenneDec Journal:
I noticed an item in the Readfleld
news Of Wednesdays paper that is both
incorrect and misleading. and which
might work harm to innocent persons
as the house is quarantined and has
been for nearly three weeks and will
not be disinfected before first of next
week by the advice of State Board of
Health.
The item was this. ''The case Of
Diphtheria reported at 'Dunn's Corner
is said to be only case of Tonsilitis" :"
You will see that persons reading the
above might think it safe to go there
and enter the house and by so doing in
feet innocent persons. One of the best
physicians in the county saw the case
once with me and confirmed my di-
agnosis namely laryngeal diphtheria
which is considered one Of the most
fatal forms of the disease bought $52
worth of Mulford's Concentrated Anti
toxine, and used all but $500 &C on the
boy. so you will see it could hardly be
called tonsilitis, although my. friend
would be glad to have it called that
seeing the boy recovered The child
was about three years old. Kindly give
this the same publicity you gave the
other item and thereby confer a favor
not only on me but the people at large
in this and the town of Mt. Vernon
who have watched the case with
great deal of interest.
Yours Very Truly

Catarrhal
Colds.

Hyomei is not an expectorant, NOR
phine mixture, or a stomach medicine,
but dry-air germicide taken in the air
you breathe, and which destroys at
once the germs causing coughs, colds,
catarrh, bronchitis and pneumonia.
You can carry the Hyomei Inhaler in
your vest pocket or use a few drops on
your handkerchief-it does not matter
whitehall you have to do is to breathe
naturally and Hyomei will do the rest
Hyomei is sold by all druggists or sent
by mail. Price, $lO0. Send to The r. T.
Booth Co. Ithaca. n. Y. for a five days
treatment free and you will never use

All agree that what Nebraska needs
most is more people to till its soil and
develop Its natural resources. and at
the same time to furnish 8 home mar
ket for the products of Nebraska In
dustries. The noticeable improvement
during the last year or two In the de-
mand for farm lands not only from in
vestors. but from actual settlers bent
upon making their homes in this state,
proves conclusively that Nebraska offers
advantages equal IL not greater. than
any other western state.
This Is more forcibly emphasized
when we remember that for years Ne
braska has gone without any organized
work to attract immigration. but has
been content to take its share of the
natural westward movement Of incom-
ing settlers. The strong efforts, how
ever, that are being made by Canada
and by some OF our own states to turn
the stream OF immigration into chan
nels leading IN their direction. suggests
the necessity Of Nebraska exerting itself
In some sybtematic way to draw new
people to its fertile fields and extensive
ranges.

As 10 COMPULSORY ARBITRATION.
The question OF compulsory arbltra-
ton in labor troubles has been raised
In Canada by the introduction Of a bill
in Parliament providing for such ar
bitration. While OF a general character
the measure applies especially to rail-
ways ard their employees. II prohibits
strikes and lockouts and provides for
provincial arbitration boards. whose
awards shall be final. or subject to
change only By the same arbitrators.
The bill proposes to establish q tribunal
which is to use conciliatlng Influences
when strikes are threatened and. failing
TO bring the parties to an understand
ing by these means. the tribunal is
clothed with powers to undertake ar
bitration and enforce It's findings upon
the railway corporations and railway
employees. The American consul at
Montreal says that in the public dis
cussion Of the proposition two things
stand out pretty plainly: First. 1t is
generally admitted that the application
Of the compulsory method Of settling
disputes between capital and labor is
inevitable, and second. that the intro
ductlon Of this principle viii tend to
harmonic the relations Of capital and
labor and promote q better understand
ing Of those matters as to which the.
interests OF each are identical.
There are very earnest advocates in
this country Of compulsory arbitration.
who 6 that in no other way is It
possible to preserve Industrial peace,
but all discussions OF the subject by
the representatives Of both labor and
capital have shown an overwhelming
sentiment against compulsory arbitra-
ton. The experiment Of New Zealand
with this policy. which has admittedly
been successful, exerts little influence
here. for the reason that conditions in
that country and this are very differ
ent. The New Zealand system Of COM
pulsory arbitration was very. fully con-
sidered at the Chicago conference of
representatives Of employers and organ
lied labor two years ago and the de-
c1sion was that IL could not be made
applicable in the United States. We
believe that none Of the men who com
pose the Civic Federation are in favor Of
compulsory arbitration and it a con-
ndently be assumed that the time is
very remote when that policy win be
adopted In this country, II It ever shall
The only thing to labor for seems to
be that which Senator Hanna says the
Civic Federation Is trying to accom-
plIsh. establishing a condition Of abso-
lutte confidence between employer and
employe. It is a difficult task, calling
for great patience, perseverance, and
earnest endeavor. but It seems to be the
only plan having any promise Of a sat
isfactory result.
