THE noe NUISANCE.


EDITOR bREENVlLLE TIMES,
Your very sensible article on tho
dog nuisance published few DAYS
ago not only meets the approval Of
many good citizens OF the town but
prompts tac following suggestion.
That III view Of the fact of go many
worthless dogs roaming the streets
importing The safety Of people, and
rendering Ii extremely dangerous al
all times TO walk The streets unpro. !.
tected, that the City Council pass an
ordinance that all dogs found on the
streets without q muzz,e be takon up
aud impounded by dog catcher,
who shall receive o certain sum
per head for each aud every dog
caught on the streets without muz-
zIo and that all dogs not called for in
3 days to be killed by said dog catcher,
without giving any notice whatever,
and that furthermore the dog catcher
be authorized te collect the sum of
one dollar per head from the owners
OF dogs who moy wish to redeem
them. This rule is established in all
cities to abate this terrible nuisance
and when we take into consideration
the evils growing out of it, and the
terrible consequences of even one case
of hydrophobis, it seems reasonable
TO suppose that no fair minded person
could RAISE any objection whatever to
his proposition, Some may suggest
the dog tax as a remedy, but like some
other ordinances, it is not enforced
Persons who own valuable dogs are
always willing TO provide muzzles for
them, aud even if they should lose a
dog, the owner would be sure 10 in
quire of the catcher, aud have days
time to fiud nm. The outlay for
such al arrangement is too ,nsignif-
cant to raise any objection on that
score, aud thcre are many in town an
xi0us to see something done promptly
and as the writer has been bitten on
the streets more than once by worth
less ours, feel that it is a duty |
owe to myself my family and my
neighbors TO make this suggestion,
hoping that others will contribute
ideas that muy be better even than my
own. CITIZEN
