Ju..,c. for Dogs and Their Owners.


A dog law which Offers sspremium on
scalps" is pretty certain to be abused. The
dog catchers are not, us rule, gentlemen of
the most exacting consciences, and as they
can increase their receipts by enlarging
the number of their captures they are very
likely to pick up their four-footed victims
wherever they can lay their hands on them,
no matter whether the unfortunates have
or have not legally forfeited their liberty
and lives. Already com plants are made of
the illegitimate seizure of pets whose own
ers have provided themselves with all the
safeguards provided by the law--with Ii
censes, muzxles, chains or strings and the
like. There is a shrewd suspicion that the
collection of dogs commenced some time
before the appointment OF the "catchers,
and that stocks of the animals were provi-
IDENTIFY gathered in advance. The half fed
condition Of the early delivery at the pound
is an evidence in support Of this theory.
The prospective catchers, in fact, bought

A way Out OF the Border Troubles.

A Way Out or the Border Troubles.
President Diaz in his instructions to
General Treviho, gave shrewd hint Of the
best way to cure the border troubles. We
have an extradition treaty with Mexico,
and cattle stealing is made by this treaty
an extraditable offence Mr. Diaz ordered
that acquisitions from this government for
criminals indicted in the United States for
extraditable offences should be respected
Itseems that the notorious robber -Cortina,
now in prison in Mexico is under indict-
ment in one of the Texas border counties
If the Governor of Texas asks for his sur
render no doubt Secretary Evarts will make
the application, and, no doubt, President
Diaz will surrender him. That may be bad
for Cortina, who richly deserves to be
hanged but his surrender and punishment
would go far to put stop to the border OUT
RACES which, the latest official reports say,
have almost ceased during the last year.

A correspondent elsewhere gives an in
teresting account Of the region of territory
captured from the Sioux, and known as the
Powder River country. It lies in Wyoming
and Montana Territories, between the head
waters Of the Powder River and the Big
Horn, and between the Big Horn Mountains
and the Missouri River, and is reported to
be an admirable grazing and farming coun-
try, with climate remarkably mild for the
latitude, but little snow in the winter and
still abundantly supplied with buffalo, elk
and mountain sheep. Settlers are pushing
into this new region, and our correspondent
reports that great many inquiries about it
are received from Eastern and Middle State
farmers desirous to emigrate. His letter
answers many Of the questions which would
be asked by an intending emigrant. He re-
marks that Indian hostilities will probably
terminate in this region during the present
summer, and two new military posts are to
be built, which will help to prevent fur
ther attacks from hostile savages. ~
The United States government is now
using Indians to fght Indians--an excellent
plan--and it is to be hoped that the next
Congress will command that all the Indians
shall be placed in the control of the War
Department The cheapest and most
effective way to civilize savages is to enlist
all the able-bodied males as soldiers, and
thus accustom them to the regular habits,
cleanliness and settled industry which can
be enforced by military rules, and in no
other way SO we'll To put savage man
fairly on the way toward civilization all his
habits have to be changed and to accom-
plish this no method is so effective as the
quiet but unceasing pressure of military
discipline.

Not q Cent frm the School Fund.

The School Bod at their last meeting
took very decied stand against the prop
osition of the Bod Of Street 70 mmission-
ers to borrow So Of the school fund. The
proposition had authority in law and to
take the money ould have been a clear
violation of theity charter, as not cent
of the money aised for the use of the
schools can be propriated for any other
purpose. We thankful that the little
scheme has bee nipped in the bud. In
stopping this I'd on the school fund treas
ury the boarddid nothing but its plain
duty. NevertDess, it is matter to feel
grateful for thi one branch at least Of our
city governme dares to do right and takes
firm stand imvor of the peoples interests.
Let all such uasures as this one proposed
by the Board f Street Commissioners to
the detrimenof the school fund meet the
same fate, anwe shall soon see an end of
similar plot and machlnatio rs brought
forward by rn whose aim and.purpose it
is to bring 6srace upon the city and bur-
