primary meetings held by the Republicans
OF this city yesterday, to have the dele
gates to the County Convention next Satur-

instructions were made, except those for

Pulaski Patriot: "We desire to warn
certain class Of people who visit this city
on each annual recurrence of Decoration
Day, that in case they contemplate carrying
revolver on that day, that they should
come well supplied with funds, as they are
liable to be arrested and heavily fined.
Quite number of young men were caught
in this kind of scrspe last year, and in
some cases 1t took all their own money as
well as that of their friends to pay the
fine"

Owners Of stock of every kind, except
ting cows, should read notice in special
local column, signed by Chief Myers. 1t
tells them that the ordinance recently pass,
ed by the City Council, prohibiting stock
from running at large, goes into effect next
Monday week and will then be rigidly
enforced. There is not little dissatis-
faction expressed because of the exclusion
of COWS from the provisions of this ord-
nance. But the objections come from men
who have no COWS of their own, who are
unwilling to grant that pedestrians have
any rights that cows are bound to respect,
and who cannot, poor simpletons, appre-
ciate how important it is that an Alderman
with an eye to the future should carefully
guard against treading upon the toes of
any of his constituents. We may say,
however, without danger of contradiction,
that the Aldermen who strenuously opposed
including cows in the ordinance Of p-ohi-
bition, were actuated more by fearful sym.
pathy tor the cows than by mercenary
desire for future lucrative position. We
are sure, that those who were present at
the Council meeting when the ordinance
was discussed, and who saw the deep con-
cera manifested all around and heard the
pitiful pleadings and earnest. eloquent ap-
peals of the Aldermen who championed the
cause of these poor dumb brutea, will scorn
the idea that the Alderman were sctusted
by any but the purest enryberghian
motives And now, the very next proper
step to take 10 this matter If we may be
permitted to presume to make suggestion
would be to adopt an ordinance requir-
ing all owners or occupants of property
AUDITING sidewalks upon which cows are
or may be accustomed to roost at night, to
strew straw or hay upon said walks and
build rain-proof awnings over them for
the comfort aud protection of
the unprotected females of the
bovine genus against the wind and weather
of future winters.
