Be Kind to Animals.

This is BE Kind to Animals week."
especially considerate of the four
footed creatures. The slogan is to be
carried throughout the community,
and impressed upon all with pictures.
with speeches and with text. All
Washington. as we'll as all America, is
to be made to realize the need Of kind
illness to those that cannot defend
themselves or plead for themselves.
1t is rather a pity that it should be
ne cessary thus to set apart particu-
lar period Of time to enjoin this truth
upon the community. 1t is strange
that there should be any other dis
position than that of kindliness to ami
mails. Something is wrong in the per-
son who is brutal to horse. or dog
or a cat, or any other creature. And
almost invariably one who is thus
cruel to an animal will be cruel to a
person. not necessarily in action, but
in thought and speech. 1t is impos-
sible fully to trust one who is harsh
to a defenseless creature.
Children are especially in the pic
ture in this work of teaching kindli-
ness. They often in thoughtlessness
do things that are in later years re-
membered with shame. They are al
most always fond of animals and ex.
press their fondness in many ways.
The particular lesson OF this week for
them is that they should treat animals
as they treat one another. only more
considerably, because the animals
cannot speak or protect themselves
except by the sharpest methods in
extremity.
For adults there is a more practical
thought A horse that is unkindly
treated is not as good servant and
as good worker as one that Is prop
erly handled. Thanks to the good
work of the Humane Society. the folly
of the maltreatment of draft animals
has been very thoroughly demonstrat-
ed, and real cases of cruelty are sell
dom reported nowadays. Yet there is
work to be done. as horse owners.

overburden their beasts Of service. In
these days of the automobile there is
less use Of the horse in heavy work,
and yet he remains after all a trusty
reliance in time of need. and he de-
serves the utmost care and kindness.

1T is impossible to frame a law

therefore, in what he says about the
tariff. Legislation this year must be
fashioned to suit the conditions of this

This treatment. with regard to the

Central Union Mission.

There is something dramatic in the
way the drive for the Central Union
Mission new home fund opens with a
fire in the old quarters that does
5000 worth of damage. The hope is
that this blaze will concentrate public
attention on the needs of this worthy,
valuable institution and cause an as
sured subscription of every dollar

1t was gratifying that on the first
day Of the mission drive one-tenth of
the total sum estimated as necessary
was subscribed. But then this tenth

the fire. The misfortune just suffered.

doubling Of efforts on the part Of the
workers for the mission.
1t Is impossible to estimate the value
to the community of the Central
Union Mission. 1t has been serving
for many years. 1t has rendered aid
to a multitude Of people, has helped
along over the rough places many
who would have sunk into the morass
Of despair and encouragement. 1t has
held out an assisting hand physically,
morally and spiritually to those in
dire need. 1t asks no questions of
those who want help, but gives it to
them freely and ungrudgingly.
An institution Of this kind, well
maintained as has been that Of the
Central Union Mission, is valuable
asset to any community. 1t must nee

are helped by it. cannot contribute.

The Primaries. and Later.

The Presidents attitude as to the
republican primaries seems to be well
and generally understood. He is not
for or against any aspirant for party
honors. At this stage Of the game it is
strictly hands off SO far as he is con-
cerned.
Later. it is equally we'll and general
ly understood, he will be very much
for the men who have been fairly Sc
lected to represent the party in the
campaigns for election. He hopes for
good-for the DETERMINATIONS; and.
when made, they will appeal to him
for all the sympathy and support at
his command.
This is conventional and just. The
President is the leader Of his party, and
as such is interested in it's fortunes.
He wants it to be in control on Capitol
Hill. When he makes recommends
tions for legislation he wants them to
come under. the consideration of men
who have received their commission
from the source to which he traces
his.
The next Congress will organize on
the eve Of the opening Of the next
presidential contest. It's record at that
session will enter largely into that
campaign. 1t is generally, and prob
ably safely. assumed that Mr.. Hard
ing will be renominated. Hence if the
next Congress is republican his
chances of reelection should be better
than If it were democratic.
