V At the public school yesterday after noon, the- literary exercises included two debates, one of which was on the_ topic given above: "Resolved, That Vivisection is not Justifiable. It was a very interesting debate. A visitor that was a juryman at the Capital City said that Juneau lawyers could not excel those young ladies in argument. Vivisection is a subject that should interest, everyone, as it concerns the life and suffering of sentient beings, Webster's definition of vivisection is: "The dissection of an animal while alive, for the purpose of making physi ological investigations.*1 But now th6 word is used in a broader sense, it in cludes experimenting with animals. Nc enlightened person objects to restricted vivisection that does not include tor ture. But "in many states there is nc regulation of vivisection whatever; no requirement for the use of anaes thetics. The animals are not required, to be humanely killed and not left to suffer long torture. There is no official and professional test demanded of the vivisector." They are given immunity from the penalty of the law. They claim the right to inflict any amount <j? pain, on any amount of auimals, iu the interest of scieuce. Millions of ani mals are tortured in the so-called chris tian nations every year. About a year ago this occurred: "Grand Rapids, Mich., Dec. 15. ? Two hundred medical students in the Grand Rapids veterinary college are today facing sprioue charges in the local po lice courts, because it is alleged they saw fit last week to perform six opera tions simultaneously on an old blind horse without giviug an anaesthetic. A ^ newspaperman, who is one of the wit nesses against the students, testified that during the operations the beast became maddened with pain and broke away. When it was recaptured the students were asked why they did not give an anaesthetic and the answer they are said to have given was: 'It isn't necessary for such eld skates.' " The following is another case at the same college: "Conditions at the veter inary college were exposed by persons who witnessed the cutting up of a horse which had uoteven beeu given un anaesthetic. Dr. L. L. Conkey is pro prietor of the college/' That such horrible crimes as those are committed (and I have the record of scores of worse) no one can refute. Strange it is that nations that profess the religion of aCrucified Savior, whose life and teachings wore oelf-sacrifice, should excel savages in cruelty. Vivi seetorssay "dominion, therefore right.'' ' But the right to use and to abuse are two different things. AH that a just God can give is that which is consistent with justice. All that a God of mercy cau give is that which is consistent with mercy. Power aud responsibility keep pace. Just government is government in the iuterest of the governed. A just God caunot sanction the torture of the weak by the stroug. The nations are morally color* bliud, aud call the product of moral degradation gaiu. The desire of profit at the expense of an other's sutferiug is the instinct of the murderer. Thanking the editor of the News, 1 will close. James C. Huffman. J. Heubner, agent for the Humboldt S. S.
