A Plea for the Horses.
To the Editor Of The Star:

10 the EDITOR OF ne STAR:
Kindly allow for space in appeal for
poor WORKOUT horses in the District,
SO common sight upon our streets,
drawing heavy loads of building ma
teriai or more often trash, attached to
dilapidated wagons, driven mostly by
colored owners. In the majority of in
stances investigation discloses the fact
that these venerable and work-worn
animals have been sold for a song by
various companies when too feeble and
exhausted for regular service, regard
less Of their unfitness for labor, rather
subjects for humane disposition. 1t is
law regarding the selling OF such
beasts of burden that SO many fragrant
acts of cruelty are daily committed in
this, our Capital city-a conspicuous
blot upon It's fair fame. Has not the
time come for the District Conn ssion =
islation in this connection and thus re-
iieve the Humane Society of an endless
list Of complaints in the courts?
II the section as TO all animals put UP
for sale were enforced under the law
and old and worn-out horses and mules
were handed over to the proper authori-
ties for disposal. this existing disgrace
in Christian communities would quickly
disappear to the advantage Of all con-
cerned.
Strangers in town are the more deep
ly impressed with the forlorn appear
ance Of our draft horses. more particu-
larly those attached to refuse and swill
wagons, the iron weight OF which of
strength Let US. as citizens, arouse TO
the need of cooperative action in an
appeal for more stringent laws regulat-
| ing such cases. ANNA P. THOMAS.

What Dutch Papers Say.

The Overseas Agency also quotes from
Dutch newspapers. The Nieuwe Rot
terdamsche Courant says:
The. far-reaching decision taken by
the two emperors contributes more to-
ward the solution of the Polish Ques-
ton and guarantees for a lasting peace
than would have been the case if a
third partition Of Poland had been car
ried out. The entente's program does
not provide for the re-establishment OF
Poland, but Russia is rather inclined
to give the Poles a certain degree OF
independence. Let US wait in order tc
see how this state, which until now ha,
been the fruit of war. will work fol
peace. and let US hope that Poland
from a buffer state Will evolve into a
really independent and prosperous
state"

Seven thousand three hundred and
twelve pounds of old papers were col
lected from the public schools OF the
District of Columbia yesterday for the
benefit of the playground fund.
The leaders were Stevens. with 2,762
pounds; the Hyde. with 1.045 pounds
and the Jackson. with 1881 pounds.
The three leaders were the only ones
having more than a thousand pounds,
and they far exceeded other schools
in the same group.
Yesterdays collections the stevens
School nearly doubled the amount OF
papers which the children there had
brought in the week previous. 1t is
stated that if this school could nearly
double it's amount, large as it was. the
schools bringing in small amounts
should certainly be able to do the
same.
Could Exceed Estimate.
If the amounts at all the schools
were doubled it would mean much
greater sum of money for the fund
for the Fairgrounds and other social
activities than has SO far been esti-
mated This would mean additional
facilities and enjoyment for the
children themselves.
Those in charge hope the children
in carrying out the plan suggested by
The Star and sanctioned by the board
of education will greatly increase the
amounts brought in so that the schools
may derive the greatest possible bene-
fit from the plan. 1t has been pointed
out that the amount of papers collected
by the children is not as great pro
rata as it should be. although the
aggregate amounts seem large; also
that comparatively only a small per-
centage of the total tonnage of papers
distributed in Washington has found
its way into the playground fund.

Hopes Poland Will Be Redeemed.

Continuing the Overseas quotes the
Koelnische Volks Zeitung as follows:
We welcome the solution as sincere,
only possible under, the present cir
cumstances. We hope that by this de-
cision that Poland will forever be re-
deemed to western civilization.
"Whosoever In Europe really loves
liberty: whatsoever recognizes the
rights of small nations must welcome
the action of the two empires. Who
soever refuses to do this. only shows
that ne lacks sincerity Fortunately.
We are in a position not to care what
the English, French and Russians say
about the manifesto"

SWISS AND DUTCH VIEWS


BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, November THE news
papers discuss the Polish proclamation
broadly, but with some reservation.
The liberal. Catholic and socialist or
gans favor 1t, while the conservatives
are more disposed to see objections.
The latter, affected by the Bismarck
ian tradition that Germany must have
q firm friend in Russia, express doubt
whether the present solution will
prove. in the long run, wise.
The Tageblatt also halls the restora-
ton of the Polish kingdom with the
proviso that Germany succeed in pre-
venting Russia from permanently in
du1ging in dreams of vengeance. The
difficulties of the Polish problem, how
ever. are apparent in all the editorial
minds.

View Of Swiss Papers.

Swiss newspapers recognize the i'm
portance of the establishment of the
kingdom Of Poland. according to the
Overseas News Agency. which quotes
the Berliner Tageblatt, as follows:
From free Switzerland cordial greet
ings resound to the new state" and
follows this with expressions of opin-
lon from various Swiss papers.
The Zuricher Post" says the Over
seas Agency, doubts whether the So
luton will satisfy all the Polish wishes
for an undivided Poland.
The Neue Zuricher Nachrichten says:
We send heartiest congratulations for
her resurrection to the Polish nation
and the Polish state. May they again
rule in all their grand old historic
mission and be a bulwark for western
Europe. May they also learn from his
tory and avoid the mistakes made by
their fathers'

kingdom upon internal questions OF

Will Lean on Germany.

The papers generally assume that the
kingdom necessarily will lean upon
Germany and Austria Hungary. not
only for protection against Russia. but
because its cultural sympathies have a
westward. not an eastward trend Some
of the papers express the expectation
that Germans military power will be
strengthened through close alliance
with Poland. and also expect that Pol
ish troops forthwith will be organized
and assist in establishing Polish free
dom.
The liberal. socialist and Catholic pa
pers take special pleasure in pointing
out that Poland receives her independ-
ence from the central powers. where
as the entente allies claim a monopoly
in protecting the liberties of small
states. One paper, in this connection.
