mails Marks Decided Advance in
Public Opinion Toward
CANNES.

Londonderry dog has his day,
they say, and this is surely the day
of every dog Never in all the long
history Of comradeshtp between man
and dog has there been time when
the canine race was held in such high
regard as now, when every care is ia
ken by millions of dog owners and dog
lovers to secure the comfort and we'll
being OF one of mans most faithful
friends
The protection of animals bill, which
has just received the royal assent,
and now passes on the statute books,
marks very decided advance in pub
lie opinion on matters affecting ami
mails generally and dogs particularly.
when compared with that widespread
attitude of Indifference prevailing
thirty years ago. The new act Sc
cures, among other things, the pre-
vention of revengeful treatment of
dogs or other animals after a con-
vicition of an owner for cruelty, and
provides deterrent to the cruel
treatment of performing animals. 1t
also provides for the inspection OF
spring traps every twelve hours, and
imposes penalties on those who sell
poisoned grain or seed, or who place
poison without taking reasonable pre-
cautions against access to it by dogs
or other domestic animals.
Contrast this legislation with the
comparatively hard time for animal
life that followed the great hydro
phobia epidemic. Many dogs were
then destroyed, and there was univer-
sal muzZling. 1t is noticeable how
much more secure a place the dog
has gained in the affections of the
people, from the highest to the lowest
classes. in the last decade or two. In
stead of claiming the dog up in dull
back yards or of muzzling the ami
NAL on every appearance in a public
place, there is on every hand a re-
markedly demonstrative desire to
make much of this most valued among
domestic pets.
There were last year In Great Brit
ain 1,826,341 dogs in respect of which
licenses were issued. These were
dogs that were happy enough to have
owners and homes. To this number
must be added 100000 dogs happy in
exemption from license, making to-
tai accounted for in the official returns
of the board of agriculture and in the
official accounts of the inland reve-
nue. department of well over 100000
dogs.
Upwards OF another 100000 may be
added to this census of the dog life
Of Britain on account of ownerless.
homeless dogs which always seem to
manage to escape the policemen as
well as the tax collector. The num-
bers show no very remarkable in
crease on those of ten years ago. when
dog licenses totaled 1,525,273. and ex-
emptions totaled 346,346.
England has the preponderance OF
dogginess, with Scotland next and
Wales third, and in England. York

Reciprocity Bill Passes House.

dill dSeCS HIooSCs
The reciprocity agreement with
Canada, which took the form of a
dill, was ratified in the House OF Rep
resentatives yesterday, through the
support of an almost solid democratic
vote. The Mccall bill, carrying the
agreement into effect, was passed 22l
to ninety two. A majority OF the
republicans present voted against the
measure, the division being seventy
eight ayes and eighty seven noes.
The democratic vote was 143 ayes and
only Ave noes. A majority of repub-
lican insurgents present voted for the
bill.
The Mccall bill now goes to the
Senate. What it's fate will be in that
body is problematical. President
Taft believes that if a fllibuster can be
avoided and vote taken, the bill will
pass. He is insistent that the Senate
shall act one way or the other, and
has indicated that he would call an
extra session Of Congress it it does
not do so.
Names delegation, as was to be ex.
pected, voted solidly against the bill.

Calling a "Rlun."
Portland Erpress.l

A democratic newspaper, in sport
ing parlance, calls the Peters order OF
last Friday "a bluf". In sport
ing circles, where this reference is
understood, the proper thing to do,
as we understand it, is to call a blum.
Now the way to call q blufi,
if we are properly informed in the
matter, is so to play the game as to
enable him who "calls" to see the
other party's hand.
1t does not do for player to say:
"Oh, you are blufiing," and thus drop
out of the game If the player who
thinks he is being bluffed has the pro
per amount Of sporOin blood in his
veins, he is going to look at his OPP
popent's hand.
The only way to do that, in this
present instance, which ia quite pro-
perly regarded by our contemporary
as game in which bluffing is per-
missible, is promptly to pass the
Peters order and force immediate,
dignified, and an unrelenting exami-
nation of the treasurer's books.
