Pyot's journals alone find fault with
these appointments. Trochu will go

Mr.. Jeffer', Dog Law.

Mr.. Jeffer, assemblyman from Wal
worth county, introduced bill early
IN the session of the legislature which
provides for the issuing of licenses
to keep dogs, the license money to
go into the public school treasury.
The bill leaves it optional with each
county 10 issue dog licenses or not.
The bill came up Wednesday last on
IT'S third reading.
MIR Jeffers, on rising, said that b.
cou.d see no reason why dogs should
not be taxed as well as cattle. or any
farming implements. 1t was claimed
by some that dogs were to sacred for
the tax gatherer, and should be treat.
ed like the sacred cows of India :;
others regarded them rs below valu-
alton. He claimed that dogs were
nuisance. doing a vast injury, and
that their prOpa cation and raising
should be discouraged. We tax the
sheep and lambs they devour, why not
AK The worthless ours that DESTROY
them?
There was difficulty in this ones.
ton. The owner of every dog is tho
owner OF vote. If man wanted TO
make political capital in small
way, he had only to swear he was OPP
posed to taxing his neighbors dogs ;
and if he wanted the reputation OF
being a great expounder on the floor
of this Assembly, he bad only to de-
clare the dog law unconstitutional
England has passed dog law. All
but shepherd dogs paid license.
Scotland has dog law, reaching
through it's highlands and lowlands.
Canada, over the border, has a dog
law. Nineteen states of our Amer
lean Uuion have adopted dog laws.
1t is only in the unciviIized parts of
the south that dog laws are unpop-
ular. In Massachusetts after the
passage ola stringent dog law, dogs
decreased one-balf in five years, and
sheep increased in like manner. Ohio
formerly lost SIP 900 and New York
SIZE, 900, by the yearly depredations
of dogs. We in Wisconsin have q
million and halfo sheep. This bill
leaves it with each county to have a
dog law or not The gentleman
from Marquett, seems to imply by
his opposition, that his people and
county are better calculated to take
care of dogs than sheep. 1t is not SO
down in Walworth county, ourinter-
est is TO the contrary. In behalf OF
the wool growers of this State in be-
half of the manufacturing interest
that needs our fostering care in be-
half of every family in our State, for
the most part clad from the wool, and
fed from the flocks of our country,
ask for the passage Of this bill.
Mr.. Jeffer's earnestness and i'm
pressi, eness has hardly been exceed
ed by any former display of the
session He was followed by. Mr..
Montgomery and Mr. Judd, who call.
ed upon his so farmer brethren of the
Assembly to stand by their focks
and families.
