the Nelson House. One COW, the
last one, came at an early hour in
the morning, and when the writer
jumped hastily from bed to learn the
reason for all the confusion we found
her making race for the front door.
Bnt the door was closed, so she
shifted to the left, gave a butt at
The TINES office door, and we
arrived in the sanctum just in time
to find the beautiful little Jersey
playing a tune on the keys of our
typewriter. Nice little jersey-how
we do like them, did you ever see
anything nicer than a iersey-the
cream she gives is so fine, and what
an elegant breed she is, anyway
These are popular views Of the jersey
COW, but when she comes as an un-
hidden visitor at an early morning
hour she is no better than any com
mon breed Of the herd
But seriously, fellow people, does
not the present status of the cow
question appeal to you as about as
ridiculous thing as could be
imagined. Here is the official
Washburn violating it's own or
dinances for twelve hours of the day
and demanding that the people who
own cows shall live up to the other
half Of the ordinance. Section one
of the ordinance says that mo
cattle, horses or swine shall be per-
mitted or allowed to run at large in
the unincorporated village Of WASH
burn. !" And right in defiance Of
this ordinance the town board in
terprets the clear meaning Of these
words by saying to cattle owners
that they may allow their cattle to
RIM at large on the streets during
the night time. To Offset this
blessed boon to the community Of
cattle owners they have hired and
are paying two men salary to
look after the few cattle that are on
the streets in the day time, and
run them in and charge dollar a
head. We ask the board in all can
dor whether they are honestly per-
forming their duty in thus fagrantly
violating their own DEGREES? We
ask them whether they ought to ex-
poet people to keep their cattle I'D
day times when the officials Of the
town advise them to break the laws
at nignU? We ask tbem Aos@ they can
expect people to respect their laws
when they themselves, violate them,
and advise other people to break
them? Il laws are made by the
town board to be broken by them
selves why should not other people
break them? The town board has
no more authority or right to violate
or interpret it's ordinances after they
are made than the most common
citizen, and it is assumption on their
part to do so. THE TINES believes
that cattle should be kept closed all
the time DIS the ordinace states, or
the ordinance should be repealed,
and let US go back to the old way of
things. The agitation is working,
and the time is coming when the
running at large of cattle is to be
made a clear issue before the people,
and they will settle it in a manner
that will be final and permanent and
say whether Washburn is to be a
backwoods town and COW pasture,
or whether property owners can go
to bed nights without fear of waking
the next morning to find that some
bovine has beer doing her worst and
her dirtiest during the night.

in victory for the entire old
