stretched wide apart and he had
gone away from the other dead and
dying horses, to a lonely corner OF

frightens a horse so much as the
body Of dead horse. and I suppose
that it was sheer terror that got this
fellow to his feet and helped him to
struggle away to more cheerful sur
roundings. He was nibbling gingeriy
at the dry grass and now and then
he raised his head and seemed to look
at the mighty tide OF horses and
wagons and men that filled the road.

in a field near Przemysl four grue-

blood, taking the hides from the skel-

given their lives in war.
Three weeks OF steady work in Ca

told me that hundreds OF horses died
daily in the Carpathians passes from
broken lungs, broken courage or bro

The governor should be given pow
er 10 call upon the attorney general
for assistance in all matters pertain
ing to law enforcement, and to this
end the hands OF the said official
should be strengthened. The attor-
ney general should be given general
supervision over the offices OF the sew
eral district attorneys and the power
to direct their activities when the oc-
casion demands. Each and every dis
trict attorney should be required to
make monthly reports advising him
fully as to the progress Of the office.
1t is well known that prompt ac-
tion Is had by the federal government
in all matters passing through the
hands OF its several United States at
torneys. This is due largely 10 the
fact that monthly reports are made
to the department of justice at Wash
ington. The attorney general is thus
kept fully advised as to the work of
his subordinates. These reports set
forth the docet entry made in each
case pending at the date Of the last
monthly report: also the new cases
and every conviction. acquittal and
dismissal-in fact, all transactions OF
the office.

wards bringing order out of chaos,
