thus We will have our town full OF mad.
dogs before We become fully apprised Of
our danger. In the neighborhood where
the bitten dogs spoken Of are permitted
TO run at large, there are Q great many
children Who infest the streets ct all
times Of day, and should any OF these be
bitten the consequences would be most
appalling. All the dogs In Cairo are not
worth the life Of the smallest child or
humblest Citizen among US! Why then
are the lives Of many men, women aud
children so fearfully jeopardized TO save
the lives OF four or i've dogs, which are
Of little value at best?
The ordinances, II enforced, would II.
ford ample protection 10 the people. II
is the marshal's duty to enforce them.
He has been pointedly instructed there
on by the council, yet unmuzzled dogs,
even those that have the terrible poison
that breeds hydrophobia coursing In
their veins, are permitted to rva at large
without let or hindrance! The inevita-
