A little thnughtf nines on thf part of those who have control of dumb animals will save a great deal of un necessary suffering during these' hot days. Thousands of people who would Hot think of committing an act of overt cruelly are nevertheless oppressors of the brute creation through sheer fail ure to remember that the animals are absolutely at the mercy of human be ings and that they cannot plead for themselves, but must endure In silence Whatever Is put upon them. In the nature of things the noble horse comes first. While few flagrant instances these hot days numerous cases of almost heartless Indifference of bruto suffering are to be witnessed. There Is apparently little lightening of loads to offset the higher tempera tures. e Governor Jo1iiimii 8iuk. St. Paul, Minn., Aug. It. An ad dress of welcome by Oovernur John A.
