Imperfect BABY

BABY KILLED.

Des Moines, Ia, March 4.-The ac-
ton of DR.. Harry j. Haiselden, Of
Chicago, in permitting the death of
the deformed Bollinger baby several
weeks ago, was recalled today in this
city by Charles Cleveland, a laborer,
who asked the chief of police for as
~sistance in killing his 2-month-old
daughter. Cleveland spoke with dis
couraged earnestness.
Chief" he said, won't you tell
me how l can kill my baby, so it
won't be against the law. Maybe
you'll help me, so it will be all right.

What's that? Say it again, >
gasped the chief.
You see," went on Cleveland,
this baby has not any regular mouth
at all and the doctors say that she
might not ever be able TO eat regular
food, and chief, she has fits all the
time. and my wife she does nothing
but cry all the time and she's sick.

Chicago, March 4.-Dr. Harry j.
Haiselden, who, for humanitarian
reasons, permitted Baby Bollinger to
die when an operation might have
saved its life, said tonight that he
might go to Des Moines to look into
the case of the Cleveland baby.
'Of course, no physician would kill
the child, but in such a case l would
control the commissions by the use of
bromides, and the result of such
treatment is almost invariably

however, a kinder death than that
which now threatens the little one.
There is a growing movement on now
for sanitary, rather than mawkish,
sentimentality in dealing with such
cases"

TO DEDICATE ELEPHANT
BUTTE DAM ON OCT.

Ell Paso, Texas, Aug. 14.-When
President Wilson touches the golden
key which will start the waters Of
the Rio Grande flowing through the
spillways of the great Elephant
Butte dam on Oct. IA, he will bring
in" 100000 acres of fertile lands in
the chain of valleys in New Mexico,
Texas and Old Mexico The first
meeting of the 23rd International r.
rigation Congress will be held at the
dam dedication and followed by ses-
sions in 81 Paso, Oct. Is, IT and 1S
The Elephant Butte dam is mass
of concrete and steel thrown across
the Rio Grande on the desert of New
Mexico at the point where a great
rock, formed like the head and body
of a mastodonic elephant, seems to
drink from the Rio Grande. This
giant impounding dam has formed
the largest irrigation reservoir in the
world. More than As miles in length
and eight miles across, the lake
stores the melted SHOWS OF the Rocky
Mountains and these life-giving wa
ters are allowed to flow through the
spiliways of the dam when the land
needs moisture for the growing sea-
son, thus causing the desert acres
below the dam to blossom and bear
fru1tage.
The dedication of the Elephant
Butte dam by President Wilson on
Oct. IA will be an event OF world
wide importance in the irrigation
field. states James G. McNary, the
president of the First National Bank
of Ell Paso and chairman of the
Board of Control of the Irrigation
Congress. 1T will mark the Recla-
nation Services greatest achieve
ment. It will reward the pioneer men
and women of the lower Rio Grande
valleys from Albuquerque to Old
Mexico, and it will justify the faith
of the people of the Southwest who
have staked their all on the fertility
of the soil and the ability of the pro-
ject to carry the waters to the lands
when most needed. Above all, it will
be a perpetual monument to the If
rigation Congress, which has been
conducting great empire-buiIding
campaign for the past twenty-five
years"

DUTY OF THE ApMINIsTRA-

coNSPlRACIES.

We denounce all plots and
conspiracies in the interest of
any foreign nation. Utterly in
tolerable is the use of our soil
for alien intrigues. Every Am
erican must unreservedly con-
denim them. and support every
effort for their suppression. But
here, also, prompt, vigorous and
adequate measures on the part
of the Administration were
needed. There should have
been no hesitation; no notion
that 1t was wise and polite to
