MORE TROUBLE

T b Q Jou urn a ! .s cartoon to-day IL
Illustrates how one controversy treads up
on another's heels in the White Mouse.
But the president is not alone In con-
troversial grief. Minneapolis can sym
pathize with him. The tax question is no
sooner settled than there arises a greater
the dog muzzling question. If the num-
Der of letters people write to their ia
vorite paper upon public questions is an
indicator the muzzling question is con-
sidered more important by the Mime
Rapolis public than the tax question.
There are many phases of the question.
Is it lawful to require the muZzling OF
dogs? Can muzzled dogs, being personal
property, be destroyed without due pro-
cess of low and with no more ceremony
than seizure by the dog catcher and death
by drowning? Is the dog genus more OF
a nuisance than benefit? Is it physically
possible to keep muzZle on a pug?
Within what radius of his masters prem
Uses may an unmuzzled dog wander. How
is the dog catcher to. know when he is
within that radius?s How is the dog to
know when he is without 1t? Is it cruelty
to 'muzzle a dog? Will the muzzling order
terminate Mayor Ames political career?
One Of our readers with more thoughts
than can be expressed on one side of the
paper writes to raise the question whether
it is right for city people to take their
dogs to the country to escape muzzles and
taxes. He AYERS that it is great in
Justice to the country for the rich city
people to turn their dogs out to forage or
the poor starving farmers Sheep
whereas when the poor farmer comes tc
town ''the rich man would not lift hanc
to give him a Meal to Eat or night
Lodging In mis- fine house-only to send
you to the city Lookup or to a Lunaticks
asylum. Then you get out the best way
you can without money to go home to your
starving family you left in the country
that mead the Money Worse than a do
dirty Lot of Worthless dogs. I wish
Every biting dogs Of American was killed
off-Wrftten by One that Knows how
Good to be bitten by the 49, Rascolls."

Favors Dogs.

To the Editor of The Journal.
read the letter written by the anti-dog
deifier and would like to ask him in the first
place why he calls the Humane Society one
sided and later hopes that they are to drop
the dogs and turn their attention exclusively
to horses, the abuse OF which makes his
heart ache every day. In going around the
city I have never been troubled nor seen
others troubled with swapping dogs, nor have
I been kept awake by their bowling. I'm
doubtedy dogs do howl occasionally but for
nervous people there are plenty Of sanitari-
ums. The writer objects particularly to dogs
being kept by poor families, but there seems
to the no reason why they should not have
this pleasure since dog is a very mex
pensive pet. The tnuzzling Of dogs, especially
in hot weather, Is undoubtedly cruel and in
humane. ..-i ~

conf the other day, II wish to state that had
another ship been alongside the Philadelphia

There being no proof Of the tune we are US

This little brochure is an excellent summary
OF conversations between the president Of
the United States and the lieutenant general
commanding. The terse, crisp English OF
the president Is q model of style, not b
superfuous word being used. General Miles
seems to have largely played the part OF
the abused Hennessy in the Dooley dialogues
but he proved himself good listener and
has won the respect Of his countrymen for his
gallant bearing under fire. There are oin-
volved sentences in the ''Short Talks and

will not be able to pass upon its merits. The
two representatives were on the ground,
