Under the new dog law the fine for
failure to comply with its provisions is ten
dollars in each case. Besides, police ottic-
ers and constables in the various cities,
villages and towns in the state are requir-
ed to kill all unlicensed dogs within their
respective jurisdictions, as such dogs will
be regarded as outlaws. Allpersons may
destroy them. The law further provides
that all dogs duly licensed shall be regard
ed as property, and their owners rights
in them to be protected the same as in
other kinds of property. The damage
done by dogs is to be paid out of the fund
collected for licenses and fines, pro rata.

have dog long or short either.

We are an economical town; we ar
industrious; we are friendly-we are cour
