IS DOG RACINE CRUEL

| some soft hearted people back in | New York have begun to roast us for | the cruelty which they believe to be | cntailed in dog racing. It is fine to i have those people constitute them selves our teachers and the saviors of
 our malamutes. but. for heavens sake,
 can they find nothing more worthy of
 their attention at home? Is there no abuse of animals. rational or irration- al. in that saintly burg of theirs which could command their charitable no-
 ticeH Surely they must be far better acquainted with the beasts in their own neighborhood than they can ever
 a, to be with those in ours. They must know that at this season of the wear in their own state hundreds of thousands of birds and animals are being hunted to death to make holi- days for New Workers. and they ought tu be let know taht that there are also thousands of human beings in the cities of the East who would be glad to get the food given to many If Nome's racing dogs.
 The official of the organization has actually become warm in his con
 demnation of the officials here be- cause they dared To suggest that rsc- ing dogs are not treated cruelty. Like all fdddists he believes that every thing opposed tO his pet hobby must not see eye to eye with himself can be right.
 Listen. br. Stillman: IT mslamutes had sense ninety nine Der cent of them would spend half their lives training 10 get on a team. If they were only wise they would prefer 10 spend few days racing each year and life of ease afterwards to hanging around half hungry 3s5 days in the year. They
 Il see the advantages accruing ,oI their race from the splendid treatment which their racers obtain. They would see the line. comfortable kennels. the grub that is often better than what q prospector gets. the care which the owners exercise to keep them in con dition. and the sleek sides instead of the riekety ribs.
 No, doctor; you are on the wrong track. If you wish to aid the noble malamute teach him 10 be q racer. Instruct him in the way that leads him to the beefsteak and the cozy kennels. Raise his eyes 10 the sport ing pinnacle whose attainment means the death of mongrelism and mango. open his heart 10 the joys of pamp- cred pupdom. Draw his mind tol fresher fodder than contaminated cans. Do anything you like if you
 ,nnot find anything 10 do al home. but the malamute that is not racer needs far mole of your charitable att tentions than We or our teams believe ! we do.
