ORAWjGE WOMAN RECOVERS
FROM “SLEEPING SICKNESS.”
'Orange, Texas, April 6.—Mrs. ^
~H. Childers, who was stricken with
“sleeping sickness” last Monday
night, awoke this morning while
.'breakfast was being prepared and
.'says she feels fine. She was some-
what weakened from the prolonged
fsleep and was very hungry when she
:jawoke.
NO AUTHORITY TO SEIZE STOCK
Austin, Tex., April 7.—Orders or in-
structions of the livestock sanitary
commission given for the purpose of
enforcing certain provisions of the
tick eradication law would be insuf-
ficient to authorize a sheriff or con-
stable to enter the premises of any
person, and against the owner’s wish-
es, seize and take by force cattle, ac-
cording to an opinion by the attorney
general today.
Another opinion held that commis-
sioners' courts are not authorized to
pay expenses of county commission-
ers in attending state meetings or
conferences out of any fund3 belong-
ing to the county.
HOW COTTONSEED MEAL
AFFECT A HORSE.
A reader wants to know, “How cot-
tonseed meal will affect a horse or
mule if it does not agree with him?”
Cottonseed meal fed in moderation
or proper quantities—one to two
pounds a day—will not disagree with
a hbrse or mule. If fed to excess it
might produce indigestion as any oth-
er feeds when fed unwisely may pro-
duce indigestion. So far as we knew
there is no injurious effect from feed-
ing cottonseed meal in moderate
quantities to horses and mules or to
cattle, but excessive feeding for long
periods may produce the same effects
on,'horses as on cattle, blindness and
nervous disturbances of a nature not
visry \yell understood. But 1 to 2
pounds a day for horses, and 2 to 4
bounds a day for cattle, along with
/other feeds to make up a balanced ra-
tibni, will not injure -or disagree with
either.—The Progressive Farmer.
/STO CLEMENCY WILL BE llECOM-
MENDED FOR EUGENE DEBS.
Washington, D. C., April 7.—Eu-
gene V. Debs can expect no recom-
^^hdation for clemency in his behalf
ironrthe Department of Justice.
Attofcpey General Palmer made this
plain tonight in a statement in which
he reviewed the«case and said that the
ten-year sentence itnposed on Debs
must stand.
“My duty is clear,” said the Attor-
ney General. “Respect for the law is
the sole basis upon which every appli-
cation for executive clemency must
rest. Debs’ open defiance of the law
and threat of force to obstruct its or-
derly administration call for only one
answer. The law must be obeyed.”
Attorney General Palmer’s state-
ment thus destroys the last vestige of
hope that Debs and his friends may
have had that the Department of Jus-
tice might intercede in his behalf.
