Flinders for horses, instead OF helping

being of the animal, are instruments OF
horse torture and should be abolished,
according to the monthly bulletin of the
American Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals. The bulletin eX-
plains that binders are wrong in pr!n-
ciple and calculated TO make horses
blind in very fact, rather than 10 pro-
tect them from startling sights that
might otherwise make them try TO
shy or stampede.
we know not who invented this in
strument of horse torture. says the
bulletin. but we know that he did not
understand the anatomy and physiology
of the eye of a horse. Human vision
is binocular-that is, we see the same
With both eyes-and so adjust the axis
OF vision that the object appears single
though seen with both eyes. But the
eyes Of the horse are placed on both
sides of the head and the axis Of each
eye is nearly at right angles with the
longitudinal line of the body. SO thot
it is impossible that the same object
can be seen distinctly with both eyes.
Now, by binding the eye in the direc-
tion in which It was intended in its con-
struction that il should see. the horse
is forced to use an oblique vision, as IL
we should cover the front OF our optics
and be compelled TO see only by the cor
nCrs of our eyes.
This unnatural and constrained use
Of the eye must to a greater or less
extent, impair vision, IL not cntirel%
destroy il. The object for which the

ed. Emphasis was given to the fact
that no extra trains and but few ex-
ira men are necessary to handle bag
gage, as it is always carried in a car
attached to a passenger train. Fur
thermore, so per cent of the money
collected is for excess weight of a
single trunk, rather than for extra
pieces Of baggage, SO that the amount
of the extra work is very small.
The usual amount of baggage car
ried without extra charge is $50
pounds per passenger, no single piece
to weigh more than 250 pounds,
though in some states the roads carry
200 pounds without additional charge.
In Canada no extra charge is made
where the baggage does not weigh
more than 300 pounds. Until 1908 the
general rate was 1919 per cent of one
fare for every 100 pounds of excess
but as passenger rates were cut very
materially about that time the per-
centage was increased accordingly.
In summing up before the commits
sion the attorneys for the complainant
said that the railroads carry one ex-
press package for about so per cent
of what the express company receives
for transporting it, but that they make
a much larger profit on excess bag.
gage for a similar service. For ex-
ample, the new express rates per 100
pounds from New York to Chicago is
$2.4O, of which the railroad gets ap.
proximately $1.20. But for transport
ing 100 pounds of excess baggage it
collects $3.35. Similarly it gets $5.55
for carrying 100 pounds of excess
baggage from New York to New Or
leans, but if the same weight were
sent by express the railroad would
get but 1920 and the express COM
pany like amount.
Objection was also made to the pres
ent insurance rate for excess baggage.
At present it is 10 cents on every
500 with a minimum charge of 25
cents. The commission was asked to
establish minimum of 10 cents, such
as the express companies now have
Another complaint is that of the

jects to the order of the railroads
that Commercial baggage" as differ
entiated from personal baggage"

Sec. Daniels Sees
Possible Peace

(From Congressman G. H. Tavenner).
! Washington, Feb. 14.-Universal
peace is still dream in spite of the
fact that the leading statesmen and
thinkers of every nation are opposed
to the continuation of the bankrupt
ing race for naval and military su-
premacy. The peace conferences at the
Hague cause no diminution of the
tremendous expenditures of the civ
iliZed world for armament. The cost
of war in time of peace is the heav-
lest burden laid upon modern civiliZa-
ton.
1t has remained for our new secre
tary of the navy, Mr.. Daniels, to sug-
gest a method which may result in
sanity among the nations. In discus
sing the possibility of concerted ac-
tion in reducing war expenditures,
Secretary Daniels suggests confer
ence of all nations to arrive at a
method. Here is the quotation:
"The growing cost of dreadnoughts,
of powder and of everything that
makes an efficient navy gives rea-
son for pause. This heavy expense
commands national and international
consideration. The naval appropria-
ton has doubled in 13 years, and yet
this country has not joined the ex-
pensive competition and race for over
large navies to the same extent as
have some other great nations.
"Ten years ago our largest battle
ship cost $5,382,000. The next dread
naught will cost $14, 4,044,0 When is
this accelerating expenditure to be
reduced? Naval programs, announced
by the nations already having the
largest navies, and the entrance into
the building of dreadnaughts by ma
tions which have not hitherto burdened
their people with the expense of large
battleships, indicate that the end is
not yet.

"Happiest Community in Ohio"

Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 14.-"The hap
piest little community in Ohio," is the
term applied to the Ohio institute for
the feeble minded, where 1900 mental
detectives are working and playing.
While reformers and many scientists
are demanding sterilization of mental
detectives, DR.. E. j. limerick, super
intendent of the Ohio institute has ap-
parently solved the problem for this
state.
segregation is the proper way to
eliminate feeble mindedness," said Dr.
limerick. "This isn't a hospital. It's a
home, a workshop, playground
These people can never hope for re-
covery They are not to blame, so
why sterilization. They are the states
wards, not burdens in our institute
here. Then, too, the institution is
their protector as is shields them from
the SCOTS and jeers of the thought
less"
Large, airy, well lighted rooms
house dozens of little boys busy al
weaving, making hammocks or door
mats. For the older boys and men
there is training at blacksmithing, car
pentry, plumbing and painting. But
the girls are having the real fun.
They are being made housekeepers and
home makers. "Every girl instinct
lively loves to fuss around kitchen,
said DR.. limerick. $50 we have fixed
up a model kitchen and dining room
for them. They are given scientific
instruction in the art of cooking. Then
they serve the meal. Our girls know
more about getting things on the
table neatly and invitingly than many
grown ups.
"And it isn't work to them. It's play.
You see, their minds haven't developed
past the childhood stage in most cases
and they take child's delight in doing
something" There is a well equipped
gymnasium connected with the insti-
tute and last but not least there's
music to make the inmates happy.
Pianos and victrolas are scattered
through the buildings. A course in
music is given those competent to take
it. They have a 25 piece orchestra.

RIGHT OF WAY FOR A
NEW ROAD is GRANTED

Holtville Tribune: An important
transfer of real estate took place
Monday when C. H. Eckert and E.
r. Blair bought the south half of
tract 80 from E. J. Mack. This tract
lies west of town between Fifth and
Seventh streets, and is one of the
most valuable pieces of property in
this neighborhood. The sale was made
through the Eastside Realty Com
pany, but the consideration is not
stated. The Importance of the sale
lies in the fact that the new owners
have agreed to give an easement for a
road through the property so that a
road and the approaches for the pro-
prosed bridge across the Alamo west
of town may be built. 1t is just pos =,
sible that the bridge may be built on
Sixth street instead of on Fifth street
as originally intended, and the former
route would have several points of
superiority over the latter, as road
along Fifth would have to wind around
several pieces Of property and the ap-
proaches to the bridge would also pre-
sent some difficulty. On Sixth street,
however, the road would run due west
through the middle of tract 50 and
would then pass through the forty
acres belonging to M. B. Allen, who
has also promised to grant an ease
ment through his land, and after pas
sing through the Allen forty the road
would strike the cemetery and would
curve south to join the present road to
Imperial Valley press., 1914-02-14

FL Centre. The directors of the ceme-
terry association have also agreed to
grant an easement through the ceme-
terry tract, so that any difficulty that
might have arisen on this score has
been surmounted. On the Sixth street
route the approaches to the bridge on
both sides of the river would be easier
to construct than they would be where
Fifth street strikes the river.
The city trustees propose to raise
$4,000 by a bond issue to help con-
struct concrete bridge on the route
that will be chosen and this amount,
together with that promised by the
board of county supervisors, will be
sufficient to provide bridge that will
be far superior to the wooden bridge
that the supervisors proposed to erect
in the first instance.

nary to a demand for indemnity upon
the Mexican government, pro-
vided it can be shown that the as
sassins of the two men were Mexican
soldiers and that the dead men were
American citizens.
The investigation SO far made
shows that Valentia was not an
American citizen and that Sanchez
had only filed his declaration of in
tention at Ell Paso eighteen months
ago. Flores has undoubted evidence
of his American birth, furnished by
the register of the Spanish church,
where he was baptized in Ysulta,
Texas, twenty-six years ago.
The capture Of Simon and the girl
will restore the latter to her almost
heart broken mother, who has been
mourning her as dead ever since the
murder of her husband. 1t is under
stood that the attitude of the fed
eral officers in regard to the return
of Simon will be determined today.

SAYS IMPERIAL VALLEY
is VERY PROSPEROUS

Yuma Sun: Glen Wheeler returned
yesterday from visit to the Imperial
valley. While visiting different towns
of the valley he met several former
residents of Yuma and Yuma valley
now in various businesses in the I'm
perial valley. He found all of them
very successful in their various occu
pations.
James Pender is in the livery bust
ness in Ell Centre.
Hugo O'Hanlon, formerly with the
New York store in Yuma, now in
charge of the Ell Centro branch of the
same establishment, is managing a
cleanup sale much on the same style
as Manager Brownstetter is doing
here.
James Tucker is farming near the
town of Imperial.
C. l.. Myers is one of the busiest
men in Ell Centro, manufacturing the
best cigars in the town.
Jack Lyall is farming near Brawley
John Cavaness and son have a fine
grocery business in Brawley.
Mr.. Harris, owner of a unit near
Bard, is carrying the rural mail on
one of the routes out of Brawley.
Cash Smith is in charge of 21 head
of work stock belonging to James
Maxey, engaged in leveling land near
Brawley.
Mr.. .sWhee,er returned to Yuma by
the Holtville road, through the sand
hills and on the way met Newt Gray,
the genial and resolute booster for
that route, engaged in the improve
ment of the road with six head of
work stock.
