The Outbreak Of The
Foot And Mouth Disease

The foot and mouth disease,
which ravaged the herds of the
Middle West last November, is
discussed in an illustrated article
in the January Popular Mechanics
Magazine. 1t states:
''At the Chicago stock yards
alone 912 head Of cattle, valued
at $4,000, and 100 hogs, valued
at So, 200, were killed, and a war
of determination was carried on
against the rats with which por-
tons of the yards were infested,
and also against the pigeons that
had made the yards their home
for years. The work of cleansing
the yards of every trace of the
disease was prompt and thorough.
One thousand men were sent into
the yards, and the infected ami
mails were killed and buried in
quicklime. By November 9 not
an animal, with the exception of
some of the fine stock that had
been exhibited at the dairy show,
was left in the yards, a situation
that had never existed since they
were opened in 1865. AS fast as
the animals were killed and
buried the yards were cleaned.
and q compassionate spraying
machines were set to work disin-
fecting the fences, gates, feed
troughs, pavements, and alleys
with a five-per-cent solution of
cresol, and, following this. quick
lime was scattered over every
surface and in every corner where
there was a possibility that in
lection had found Judgment. ="

Cuban Amnesty Bill
Vetoed By President

Havana, Dec. Is. President
Menocal today vetoed the amnes-
ty bill passed by Congress Dec.
9. The measure was designed to
effect the release of Gen. Ernes-
to Asbert, former governor of
Havana province, serving a IL
year sentence for completely in
the killing of Chief of Police
Riva last year.
The President questioned the
constitutionality Of the act which
was so framed as to apply to only
one person. He also objected to
cancelling the decision of the
Supreme Court, before which
Gen. Albert was tried, as Great
ing a dangerous precedent.
1t has been generally believed
the President either would ap-
prove the act or permit it to be-
come a law without his signature.
Partisans of Gen. Asbert de-
clare the act will be passed over
the Presidents veto.

MONSTER PETITION READY.
Temperance Forces Of Des Moines Line
Up 5000 Voters.


Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines. Dec. 29.--The petition
of the Des Molnes prohibitionists to
the council. prepared to be presented at
once. is said to contain the names OF
between 1900 and 5000 voters. There
was a mistake In the announcement
made at the close of the Sunday re-
vival meetings that over 5000 had
signed at the last meeting. 1t has been
with some difficulty that $500. names
have been secured.
The clrculators OF the petition re-
port that q good many names were not
secured because of the fact that en-
bodied in the petition was what many
thought was an unwarranted attack on
the district court The petition based
the demand for refusal to continue the
licenses on the theory that the dis
trict court had connived at conttnu :
ance of the saloons by refusal to take
up the appeal on the consent petition.
This offended a great many who are
opposed to saloons but not in favor OF
having the voters pass Judgment of
condemnation on the court without
some knowledge of the facts.
AS to what the council will do, 1t is
regarded as, a problem. One rumor has
been that the council was merely wait
ing to get the backing of big petition
and then to act closing the saloons;
but this is doubted by many. and the
belief now prevails that the council
probably will not finally refuse to grant
the saloon licenses

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Dec. 29.-The Potta-
wattamie county deer case Is to be
submitted to the supreme court at
the January term. The state, or prose-
cutlon, takes the position the case Is
one to establish the right of the state
to protect it's wild animals and birds
of every kind. The defendant, L. G.
Ward, shot a deer that was browsing
on his fodder. The unique argument
is presented that as a matter OF fact
wild animal has rights that far tran
scend the rights Of domestic animals,
since q wild animal can not be held
to be q trespasser at any place But
as to the effect of an adverse decision,
acquitting the farmer of having un-
lawfully shot the deer. Wiley S. Rankin,
special counsel in the Office OF attor-
nay general says:
Perhaps 1t is not argument, but II
Is desirable to call this courts atten-
ton to the condition that will exist II
this matter is decided against the state
Flatly. then, it must be said that where
any protected game Is destroying the
property Of any person, that person
may lawfully kill the game.
Would Mean Extinction.
Follow this to it's conclusion. These
deer will disappear very shortly be-
cause everybody will be waiting
anxiously to see any deer of this herd
begin to eat grass in the pastures or
hay fields, or the grain that is either
grown or being grown, and the minute
it begins some person will be ready to
shoot it, claiming that it is destroying
property. 1t means the extinction OF
the herd and that in a very short time
Follow this same idea little further:
Prairie chickens or quail fly on a man S
land in q closed season. They begin to
destroy his property. If this case is
not sustained where Is there any logical
argument that the smaller game can
not be shot, and that means the ex-
tinction of practically all the game in
the state. OF course 1t can not be sue
cessfully contended that the small
game, such as prairie chickens, quail
grouse or even the other birds which
are protected do nearly SO much in
jury to property as the deer, but while
the amount of damage varies, the prln-
ciple Of law involved will not vary.
