"MAD DOG.-

I'll PaSo, April %.
Editor FL Paso Herald:
1 wish to commend your excellent cd
itorisl on Dogs. Muzzles and Rabies. =
! 1 believe it is in the main a proper
exposition of the subject in the light OF
present scientific knowledge OF this dis
ease. AS 1 have some authorities at
hand. l would like 10 aid in strength
ening your position
Some great advances have recently
been made in our knowledge of this
disease. In 1908, Prof Negri, of Pavia,
Italy, discovered in tine brains OF rabid
animals minute bodies having certain
characteristics unlike anything found
in normal brain or in any other disease
conditions. These bodies are now known
as Negri bodies, and are now general
~ accepted by scientists as positive
proof of rabies, thus establishing this
disease definitely in the infectious
class. Some physicians Of good stand
ing have not yet accepted this as posi-
tive cause OF the disease, but usually
they are men who have formed opinions
without personal effort in Investigating
the subject On the other hand. there
are the United States government re-
ports. as we'll as the records of thou
sands OF cases in private and state
laboratories where a positive diagnosis
fas never proved to be In error.
1--WE have doubters in every line OF
endeavor, as well as back numbers in
every profession. l know Of no school
or doctors that maintains that there
is no such thing as rabies. No reputa-
bic school today denies or doubts IL.
though there are occasionally indiyId-
uals who do. Recently a physician ex-
pressed to me his disbelief in rabies

not believe in examination for the
germs Of tuberculosis. though now he
has passed to the great beyond. vic
tim OF that same disease. ANY person
who has seen the agony of a human
being dying of hydrophobia will NOT
doubt the rality OF the disease.
Since cure OF the disease is unknown
our best efforts should be directed TO
ward prevention. which can be made
positive. The remedy is easily stated !
Muzzle very dog that is not confined |
then in justice to the muzzled dogs as
well as our children, kill all sfravs
Many of us like dogs. but we love our
children better. and dislike to live in
constant terror OF their being bitten.
There are many worthless ours and a
pet that is not worth tax, tag and q
proper muzzle would better join the
ours in the pound.
In Australia there is no hydrophobia.
Why? Its absence vas noced and the
contiEent quarantined- In England. in
1889. dog muzzling law was passed.
BY 1892 rabies became almost extinct
and the clamor of dog owners caused |
a repeal Of the law. In 1895 the disease
was again so prevalent that the law
was reenacted. When some English

CAR TRANSFERS.

Editor FL Paso Herald:
Why is it that a passenger on a Fit.
Bliss, Boulevard or Arizona street car,
transferring to Shelter car, is put off at
the corner of Oregon and Rio Grande
streets and compelled to stand in the
hot sun from ten to twenty minutes
when he might be comfortably seated
at the transfer station?
In enforcing this rule. the street rail-
way company is, in my OPTION, incon-
siderate of the public's comfort In FL
Paso are many health seekers and aged
people, and standing in the sun for ten
minutes is a great hardship for these
people. If the corner of Mills and Ore
gon streets is the transfer station, why
not make II the transfer station?
To what end the company inflicts this
discomfort and hardship upon the peo-
pie is difficult 10 surmise.
Can nothing be done TO improve the
present transfer system?
