CORRESPONDENCE.
Kindness to Animals.
Ellsworth, Me-, Dec. 10, 1872

Ellsworth, Me-, Dec. 10, 1925.
To the Editor of the American:
Reading your very timely and
honest statement of facts in re-
gard to illegal trapping and care
less tending Of traps, 1 thought l
would suggest that it be made
doubly hard for trappers to get a
license If they are convicted of
breaking the laws on any account
l think, of times. Of the needless
sufferings of the dumb beasts, some
times called the Clover animals"
Il wonder If it is so?) And while
we take particular care to see this
law enforced, let us not forget our
If we saw a dumb animal in
trap and left hungry, how quickly
we would see what could be done.
But when we see poor old horse
with head hanging low standing on
three feet, all covered with sores,
a large bunch on leg, all sweaty
from the torture Of being driven
when suffering so, and then
taken, perhaps, to some old barn,
tied up by the head with not
enough 10 eat, maybe DedteH, Idheu
out again after might of suffering,
worked and driven again, do we say
anything? guess not. Why
should we strain at gnat and
swallow a camel?
Not long ago horse was driven
almost to death in Ellsworth and
along the Trenton road. All day
it was kept on the run, just as fast
as it could be driven, until the
horse dropped and could not get up.
Does it legalize a man to put so
much abuse on a horse just be-
cause he paid for it and is the
owner?
More than once I have known
cases in court that escaped a con-
viction when it has been very evil
dent abuse and cruelty. Let US
have a humane officer in Ellsworth
who can go all over Hancock
county and look after domestic ami
mails, and when horse or cow is so
poor they show every bone in their
body and are barely given enough to
eat, let this officer have the au-
thority to take such steps as are
needful to remedy conditions. Some
COWS and horses are their own best
witnesses in some cases.

GOLF TOURNEY
STARTS TODAY
Tommy Armour Of Wash
ingtOn Set Pace in Prac-
tice Yesterday With 6S

Columbus, Ohio, July S--R)--Thc
first round Of the struggle for the
national open golf championship, now
held by Willie MacFarIane of New
York, begins today on the gruelling
links of the Scioto Country Club.
With record score of 6S, made by
Tommy Armour of Washington, -.
c., in final practice yesterday. to
set the pace, such titans of the links
as Bobby Jones. British open and
American amateur champion; Walter
Hagen, professional golf title holder;
and Chick Evans, holder of the record
score of 2S6 for the event, were
among those ready to whale their way
over the wavering fairways.
Rain Predicted
Players started today with Il pre-
diction that rain might dampen their
game, ii not their ardor before night
fell on the scene of conflict. All the
15l starters today were sure of
another days cndeavor, if they cared
to remain through the second Is
holes tomorrow; but after Friday
round only those who shared the best
60 scores will play in the two circuits
of the links on Saturday
In an amateur and pro exhibition
yesterday Jones, playing with Watts
Gum, lost Il match to Walter Hagen
and Willie MacFarlane. The six
professional pairs Won this event II
TO ; by Nassau system of scoring.
Difficult Course
There were some on the links today
who have avowed that the Scioto
course is the most difficult on which
the classic has ever been held.
The first crack of the driver to set
off the 1926 national open was slated
for S:t5 a. m, with pairs starting
at five minute intervals until !,
o'clock. This schedule made the
finish of the last pair impossible
before six p. m.
