THE HOG.
Shall He Be Banished ?-Is He Nul

This neWspaper is unalterably opposed 70

hogs that are allowed to have mud hole IN

But whether the hog is necessaril lily nuis-

tion, and whether his presence IS always a :,
menace TO health Is a problem for doctors ana
boards OF health TO speculate upon, but lts
practical solution will need the co-operatlon
of laymen. The proposition OF physicians tn,.
and public officers to abate nuisances Is ioI

for the public welfare deserves the tnousn.t
ful and generous consideration or the puoIIc

Undoubtedly the dog has many friends, and
there can be no question that the hog Is not
without champions. 1t is because OF the
owners OF the hogs that we write. The Board
of Health give notice that ION and after the
first day OF January, 1896, no more hogs or
pigs will be allowed within within the incorporate
While we believe the laws and Courts OF
the State would sustain any regulation of the
habits, or confinement, Of the hog, the Press
and Banner doubts If the hog can be directly
Iepislated out of existence. The Courts would
not hold that hog OF itself Is a nuisance, II
it was allowed to live within proper bounds
Ir little pen, there can be no doubt that the
hog is a Nuisance which deserves no lenlency
whatever. 1t should be abated Immediately,
but If the same hog has good dry lot or SUI
ficient size, and the lot is Kept in good condi-
tion, we doubt very much II the hog so Sit
uated could be legally declared nuisance
A hog is no doubt nuisance on small lot.
He is also O nuisance and menace 10 lhe
health of its owner II 1t Is penned nearer TO
we'll than double the depth of the water foun-
tain. A we'll will always drain the surface OF
the earth for a distance of double It's depth,
and in very many cases 1t will drain the
top OF the earth for three times It's depth.
This being true any hog lot which is within
one hundred and thirty-tive feet Of any we'll
should be declared nuisance-the average
depths of wells being forty-1ve feet.
All COW lots, horse lots. chicken houses,
and like places within one hundred and
thirty-tive feet of the we'll should be de
clared nuisance, even if the top OF the earth
inclines from the we'll. If they are higher
than the mouth of the we'll, they are men
ace to health, no matter how far removed.
Nothing should be allowed TO remain on
the surface that would polIute the water.
We say, regulate the hog, but don't eXter'
inmate him.

A PROPER LAW.
The GeOrsians are Sensible ON the
Question of Fire Insurance.

Atlanta, Ca, Nov. 1.-THE Dodson insur
ance bill came up on It's passage as the special
order In the Senate today, and after occupy
ing the attention of that body during almost
the entire session, il was passed ny a vote OF
q to 5, with one slight amendment that CAN
not fail TO be accepted by the House. ~
The Dodson law-for undoubtedly itWlll DC,
come law now as soon as the House can
pass upon the amendment and the Governor
sign it's one of the most important 10 the
people Of the State that this Legislature Will
have to deal with. 1t provides that fire IN
surance companies doing business in this
State shall hereafter pay the full value of pol.
icies issued in case OF loss instead OF three,
fourths of the face value in case OF total
loss. 1t is provided, however. that If the loss
sustained is not u complete one, then the IN
sured is entitled to a sufficient amount 10 re-
imburse him for the actual loss sustained.
Under the present laws the insurance COM
panies issue policies for $1,000, for Instance,
and in case of total loss the insured is enti-
tied TO sl,5OO. although he has paid the pre-
MUM on a 81 600 policy.
Opponents of the bill claim that insurance
rates will now be increased in consequence oi
the repeal Of the three-fourths clause law.
