sentatives asked them to meet their employees half

Trespass Notice.
EDITOR LEADER

AS the dog ques.
tion has come TO the front again,
and the Nortons correspondent in.
fers that the highest aim in life Of
the people of Chitwood is to kill
dogs, we, the citizens of Chitwood
and vicinity, ask that you will give
our explanation to the public.
We are citizens of the United
States and as such we claim the
protection of our homes and prop
erty, and holding title to our land
we believe we have the right to
protect it. Any person who takes
unwarranted liberties on the prop
erty of another is guilty of trespass
and is held so by the courts of our
land. We have raised no object
ion to any person running dogs or
hunting on their own premises, but
if we forbid others the privilege
they assume upon our property and
take any steps to protect ourselves,
threats of direst vengeance are
heaped upon us, and we are told
that our property and lives are not
safe.
If farmers. generally, understood
and would assert their rights, there
would be no need of game ward
ell or game law, therefore, we, the
undersigned, respectfully warn any
hunter, hunting on our property
or running dogs on the same with
out our permission, that such acts
will be considered as trespass and
liable to prosecution.

Sheriff James H. Ross returned
from Campbell, California Tuesday
evening. He arrived two days
before the death of his father and
hence was just in time to render
such service as is due from a son.
He reports everything but the old
home changed and that would have
been, but for the determination that
the old place should look the same
as it did when "the children were
at home" A pepper tree planted
by Jim in boyhood is about three
feet i'll diameter and grew so
luxuriantly that long ago its roots
filled up the we'll so it could not be
