Dr. Holcombe, State Veterinarian of Kansas, assures the gov¬ 
ernor that lie and the Sanitary Commission are doing all they can 
to rid the State of glanders. Before an animal can be killed by 
order of the. Commission, the law requires the inspection of the 
suspected animals by the State Veterinarian, who reports the case 
to the Sanitary Commission. A day of hearing is then set, and 
the owner given notice, so that he may appear with such evidence 
as he may wish to present. If the commission find the animal 
diseased, as charged, he is then ordered killed .—National Live
