The Dog Tax.
[Gretna COurier.]


A few years ago the Granger legisla-
ture of Texas, passed law imposing
tax Of one dollar head on dogs. The
tax had to be paid on or before Christ
mas and if not paid by that time was
collected with penalty. All other taxes
were not so collectable until June fol-
lowing. On this account the time of
payment of the dog tax was generally
overlooked, and many people were put
to costs. They were usually proceeded
against by the County Attorney under
an information as he was entitled to
ten dollars for each conviction.
Near the eastern line OF Lamar Coun-
ty there lived a poor man by the name
Of Wiley billiard, engaged in opening
up small farm, but much more dill
gently engaged in opening a little
brown Jug. When the assessor came
along to list his little effects, among
other questions was-"How many dogs
have You ""Just an even hundred" an
swered billiard.
Christmas came and went, and he
thought Of anything else than the hun
dred dollars he had promised to pay
the State of Texas for the benefit of the
School Fund. But one good day a
neighbor dropped in and told him that
the States Attorney for Lamar County
was having all the delinquents on the
dog tax list proceeded against, and the
very least they could get off with was
nineteen dollars a piece even tor one
dog. -,
Farmer billiard was, as the reader
may well imagine, thunder-s struck.
nineteen hundred dollars dog tax and
cost! When my little patch Of a farm
has scarcely supplied me in side bacon,
corn bread and whiskey! Such State
is not worth living in" So, gathering
up his little traps, and turning out his
crop to the stock, he then fed to Arkan-
sas.
This is true story as related to us
by personal acquaintance Of billiard,
who is now a citizen OF our village.
