LET DOCS DELIGHT"

The fatal weakness with alienists Is
the limited viewpoint The expert spe-
cialist who decides that certain rem
edy will cure certain Ills at once be-
comes stubborn and insists upon the
administration of his prescription, APP
parently without thought or care of
greater ills that may follow the eradica-
ton of a lesser evil. This symptom of
narrowed viewpoint is standing out like
a boil on the nose in the muzzle order
Of our lariat alienist. He sees, or
imagines he sees, great good that will
come to his beloved subjects by mug
cling the dogs Of the city. He proposes
to save us from calamity he has con-
jured up, in which he sees staid citizens
of high standing in the community
chasing through the streets frothing at
the mouth and throwing fits at the sight
of water. True, DR.. s. Weir Mitchell
and some Of the greatest medical minds
of the country contend that hydrOphobia
is not caused by dog bites; these men
are not allenists. The mayor knows
better and proposes to save the people,
even If they do not care to be saved.
Accepting, just for the sake of argu-
ment, that Mayor Jim knows as much
as he thinks he knows about dogs and
muzzles and what is good for the peO-
pie, the enforcement Of his order for
the muzzling Of Tray, Blanche and
Sweetheart would, in the opinion Of
many who know little about the phil
osophy and economy Of dogs, open the
way for a train of evils that would
cause greater loss and suffering than
the ills we have In the unmuzzled pups
The mayor loses sight OF the value OF
the dog as a protector OF man and prop
erty. He may think that the pioneer
days have passed and that life and limb
are secure In our more or less effete
city civilization, but he is deluding him
self. Surrounded by faithful follow
ers, with policemen within call and al
ways armed with his trusty rope, the
mayor enjoys a feeling of security that
is unknown to the residents OF the less
thickly settled sections OF the city, who
rely upon dogs for protection against
dangers that threaten them, night and
day. The habits OF the man-eating rab-
bit, that turks in the grass and hiding
places in the suburbs, making inroads
on the barnyard and poultry pens as
hunger prompts, carrying on live stOch
} and. when aroused, giving challenging
defiance and battle to man, are too wei
known 10 be recited here, and nothing
but amazement results from the mayors
oversight of this danger. The enforce
ment Of the muzzle order would meaI
, that the residents Of these suburbs
J would have to appeal for police protee
ton for their children on their way d
and from school and entail a heavy ex
pense upon the residents by hiring
! guards to stay the ravages OF the blood
! thirsty rabbits. Better an occasiona

zied dogs.
The second evil, which the mayor APP
parently overlooks, Is the solution OF
the flea problem. The fea Is no respecter
Of persons and loves a fight as well as
rabbit does. The real hungry flea will
attack a human being. but It loses en-
thusiasm and energy when its efforts
are not opposed The dog is its meat
the canine anatomical construction being
such that the dog cen contest every inch
OF the battle ground, this advantage
being denied TO man, by reason Of bis
handicap Of clothes. AS a result. the
flea will leave the plumpest and latest
man in existence to tackle a lean dog, so
that II may fight as it eats. The muz-
zled dog would be fat, stale and I'M
profitable eating to the flea, owing to
his inability to put up the fight that
serves as sauce to the flea's appetite.
With dog meat eliminated from the bill
of fare, the flea would naturally select
the human being as the best substitute.
This is the profound and solemn opin-
ion OF the only alienist expert who has
ever thought Of the subject, and Mayor
Jim and the Omaha public may accept
his contentious as absolutely correct.
The issue is therefore clearly drawn.
If the mayor prefers fieas in certainty
to hydrophobia in prospect, he is well
come to his privilege of gratifying his
choice and taste. but the rest of the
community will reserve the right to pro
test.

Is the profession OF his chivalrous devotion

ing for its object the administration OF
equal and impartial Justice" The ancient
theory that the member of the bar Is the
friend Of the court and OF Justice seems to
be losing ground. The lawyer Is a privi-
legged member Of the community, and In
theory he owes something to the COM
munity. The physician as rule accepts
his responsibilities by giving gratuitous
service in hospital, dispensary~- and to the
poor, and It has always been the notion
that the lawyer was at the disposal Of
the court as the defender Of the defense
less when a life was at stake. 1t may be
questioned whether in urging the new law
and in getting the occasional fee in such
cases the bar has not taken a mistaken
mess OF commercial pottage," to uss the
Judges language.

Employer Inability Law.

Judges Of the lower United States courts
continue to divide on the question, whether
the federal employers liability law is con-
stitutional or not. At the moment the line
up stands three TO two in favor Of consti-

The clash between Messrs. Walsh and
Gone is not surprising. Mr.. Gone has
proved very exasperating since the open

Treasurer Brian's report for March
shows a very comfortable condition Of

the deposits are kept The interesting
feature lie that almost a million and a
half Of the permanent, school fund is In
vested in state warrants which will
soon be discharged and leave the princi-
pal open to reinvestment. Under the
constitutional limitation this will be
rather difficult. The necessity for the
amendment suggested by The Bee,
which will allow the state treasurer to
take advantage of opportunities now
closed to the school fund, is becoming
more and more apparent every day.
