counsel for the society, denies that
1t ever proposed the prohibition of
vivisection. The society stands. he
says, upon precisely the platform
where Herbert Spencer, the greatest
of English scientists, stood when in
1895 he, with nearly 200 of the most
prominent physicians in England and
In this country, signed a statement in
which he said:
I'VE believe. therefore, that the
common interests of humanity and
science demand that vivisection, like
the study Of human anatomy in the
dissecting room, should be brought un-
der the direct supervision and control
OF the state. The practice, whether in
public or in private, should be restrict
ed by law to certain definite objects
and surrounded by every possible safe
guard against license or abuse"
Mr.. Bellamy insists that these cues
tons call for a frank answer from
those who oppose any such safe
guards:
Queries For the Doctors.
How can legitimate scientific work
by competent men be injured by a law
which will limit all vivisection to COM
petent persons?
How can legitimate scientific work
be injured by law which will com
pei the use Of anaesthetics In all cases
where the success of the experiment
does not make the use Of anaestheties
impPacticabie?
II our proposed legislation does not
fully protect legitimate scientific work,
why do not our opponents who criti-
else It accept our often repeated invi-
triton and suggest some amendment
which will fully protect scientific re-
search7
Why the secrecy with which vivfsec-
ton ia surrounded? Has the disem-
boweling of living animals, in order to
experiment with their vital organs, or
the amputation Of limbs from one ami
NAL and attaching them to another
become 80 painless that the public
has no interest to know what effort Is
made to save unnecessary suffering?
Or is the brutality of the whole
thing so hideous or so unnecessary
that the operators do not dare to let in
the light of investigation upon it?
We again challenge them to open
the doors Of their star chamber labora-
tories and let the truth be known. In
no other way can they quiet the pub.

WHERE DID CASTRO GET iT7
M0nop0Iies and Foreign interest. the

Monopoles and Fereisn interests the
Sources of the Venezuelan Presi-
dents European Bank Deposits.
Estimates of the amount Of money
that President Castro of Venezuela
thrlftily deposited in Europe prior to
his fight vary all the way from $1o,-
100000 to $60,OOoOoO. Where did he
get it? is the natural, question. Most
OF bis wealth has come from monopo-
lies out of which he has received the
lions share. The latest and one Of
the most ingenious Of these nonopo-
lies was the sole right to butcher cat
tie. This was said to produce a net
income of $4,000 day, as the cattle
raisers were forced to sell their ami
mails for almost nothing In the absence
Of competition
Foreigners Of all nations, as we'll as
the Venezuelans, have contributed to
Castro's European bank deposits.
After four years Of exploitation the
receiver" Of the New York and Bermu-
DEE company's asphalt property turned
Into the Venezuelan treasury only 49,
OOO as the net proceeds of four years
sales, amounting to about half a mil
lion dollars at the mine. All but S.
900 Of this sum. the receiver" stated,
was absorbed by Expenses and i'm
provements." The receiver" neglect
ed to mention the profits derived from
the sale Of the asphalt here. Added to
the half million dollars charged to lex
penses and improvements" the profits
made on the sale of refined asphalt
make an enormous sum, which has
been divided between Castro and his
American business associates.
But the cattle and asphalt gratis are
only samples Of the sources from
which Castro has enriched himself at
the expense Of his own people and for
eign interests in Venezuela.

Impressive evidence Of the progress
Of the pioneer American Linen mills
established at North Brookfield, Mass.
about a year ago is found in the plans
just completed for extending the plant.
Beginning with limited capacity in a
mill that had to be adapted by degrees
to the requirements of the Oxford Linen
mills, the business has grown to such
an extent that plans have been drawn
for half a dozen new buildings, all
larger than the present main mill.
The plans call for an addition dou-

house. The two latter buildings will
be in the center of a quadrangle form
ed by the other buildings mentioned.
All the buildings will be Of re-en-
forced concrete The new weave shed
is to be two story building, provided
with overhead lighting by means of a
saw tooth roof containing 375 sky
lights. The power plant will be To-
Gated well away from the mill building
proper, all the machinery In which
will be electrically operated. A stock
issue Of about $165,000 made in con-
nection with the beginning of these
extensions was all taken within a
week, largely by original shareholders
in the mills.
The Oxford mill was the first es-
adjustment In the United States to
undertake the manufacture Of linen
products from fiber prepared by the
Nudge process. This accomphshes in
a few hours the work that abroad re-
quires many weeks. Judging from
the extensions to be carried out by the
oxford mills, there seems to be no
further reason to question the i'm
mense success Of the undertaking.

ELECTION CAMPAIGNS.
Modern Methods Started With the Ad-
vent of jackson.

SSH6 VI VaSHSOfls
Jackson left his mark on all that
he touched. With his advent new
regime was inaugurated. Its COM
ing was accompanied by new meth
DDS. The presidents who preceded
him were educated, polished states
men. They were of the aristocracy.
When their aspirations for the
presidency were voiced in stately
fashion by friends a measure of
dignifed decorum was observed in
the spoken or printed expression of
hopes and claims.
Campaigning in the modern
sense was unknown. Conventions
had no existence. Platforms de-
cfaring the principles and policies
to which the candidate pledged
himself had not yet been formu-
lated. Political cartoons, carica-
lures, great mass meetings, fam
boyant Haunting of flags, haunting
transparencies, parades, campaign
songs, brass bands and buttons
these played no part in the election
of Washington, Adams, Jefferson,
Madison and Monroe.
They were lacking in even the
campaign of 1924, when Jackson
was first a candidate, though the
house of representatives defeated
the popular will, which had named
him as its choice, by selecting John
Quincy Adams to fill the presi-
Dental Office.
But in the campaign of 1928 the
general, who had done things diff
ferently at the battle of New Or
leans, seems to have stimulated in
men who advocated or opposed him
desire to follow new methods.
Jackson's first successful cam
paign in 1923 was opened by Gel
ebration of his famous battle in the
city of New Orleans. Hero of the
battle and presidential candidate,
he attended as the guest of the
state. On his way from his home
he was entertained at Natchez. A
procession, a banquet and ball
kept him busy. A fleet of steamers
was sent from New Orleans to meet
him. A throng greeted him when
he landed. Four days of festivity,
news of which stirred the people
throughout the land, followed.
This was the beginning. With
his campaign for reelection mod
ern methods were fairly establish

The PARROT TALKED.

oueerest position imaginable. 1t

| lust discovered it yesterday. It
came to light while [ was waiting
for an elevated train.
''At the station at the same time
was a boy carrying an unusually
large birdcage in which swung an
unusually large parrot. Many per-
sons gathered around the cage to
admire the bird and to ask ques-
tons. l asked a few myself.
"Does he talk?' said I.
''The boy answered very patient
". Not any more he said. He
aasn't talked for two years. He is
a South American bird. We brought
him here from Guayaquil two years
ago, and he has never talked since.
[ guess he must be homesick.'
"Several men and boys lowered
over the cage, one after the other,
and attempted to engage Polly in
conversation, but he blinked at
them all in contemptuous silence.
By and by spoke to him.
"'Hello. Polly said l. How do
you feel today?'
"Hello YOURSELF said Polly.
"The boy nearly tainted. why,
miss he said, whatever did you do
to him?'
II assured the lad l had done
nothing that l was aware of and
that I was as much surprised as any
body at my success in eliciting
reply.
"'Try him again. said the boy.

II did try again, and every time
/ spoke the bird talked back. The
unexpected loquacity on the part
of the parrot inspired numerous
witticisms among the men. It's

ed one rude wretch on the outskirts

man present who descended to no

a business card.

that of a large bird store. amy
parrot he went on, that has stop
ped talking or that is just learning
to talk will talk better for a wom-
an than for a man. But even
among women there are a certain
few that exercise a peculiar infu-
ence over the birds. I can't ex-
plain why. Nobody can explain it.
1t simply is so. l have in my store
now, he continued in direct con-
wersation with me, several parrots
that so far cannot be induced to
talk. One is a beautiful Mexican
parrot. He belongs to a doctor,
who would pay good round sum to
anybody who would teach the bird
to talk. Would you mind trying
your peculiar powers on him?'
"Of course I declined the offer.
I didn't feel particularly proud of
certain mysterious qualities that
appealed exclusively to the minds
of poll parrots. Still, it is consoling
to know that if l ever need new
