Bitten by n Dog.

Monday morning little Oscar Gilli-
land son of MIR. Ben +. Gilliland went
over to Mr.. j. I. Enright's, a neigh
Dor. Just as he walked into the
house setter dog sprang at him and
bit him severely in the calf of the leg.
Mrs. Enright was standing near by,
but had no idea that the dog was so
vicious as to bite child. His wound
was promptly treated by DR.. 4. G.
Allen and is doing reasonably we'll,
nevertheless his parents are extremely
anxious about the result. Up to this
writing we learn that Mr.. Enright
had not killed his dog. Certainly he is
not going to keep this vicious animal
In the neighborhood to perhaps re-
peat the same thing to his own child
or some neighbors as soon as he has
another opportunity. He should at
once put an end {, such pets life.
more especially when requested to do
so. We are satisfied that Mr.. En-
right would have killed the dog had
it been one of his own children. So
why not do SO for little Oscar Gill;
land! Certainly child's life is far
more valuable than all the dogs in
the world. Kill the dog. Mr.. Enright,

PLANS.

Under the head of financial nos
trums, the Pioneer Press reviews
our senator's financial plans. Here
it is:
Then there is the beautiful plan
of Mr.. Pe5tigrew to Issue $500, 000,-
900 bonds for the purchase of gold,
to be held as a reserve against the
issue of still more paper money.
How that gold, If obtained, could
be kept in the treasury no one pre-
tends to explain. 1t is just as easy
to take $500, 900, 900 OUT of this
country as S., 200, 600 when conf
dence is impaired. We have now
some 5000, 600, 900 of paper money
which is all redeemable in gold in
the last resort. There is nothing
to prevent any one from presenting
this over and over at the treasury
and demanding gold in exchange
until the last gold dollar is gone.
While specie payments are main
tanned, the treasury is at the mercy
of those who ask for gold; and
$500, 600, 900 would not last it six
months, if the public had reason to
believe that we were going to leave
the gold basis. All these are but
specimens of a fantastic folly that
concerns itself with devisIng ways
and means to escape doing the OBJ
viously wise and right and necessary
thing. There is one way and one
only to make money plenty and
that is to make it good. All other
problems will settle themselves when
it is understood that every dollar
in the United States is and is to re-
main, according to the old saying,
Gas good a. gold"
