FATE OF JAMAICA'S CAPITALS

ERNEST wHIrED.
OBJECTIONS URGED
 TO PUBLIC HANGINGS

Doubtless in every city of the land, provision is made for the killing of surplus dogs, else our towns would be- come dog ridden just as the ruined sections of Rome are now infested with dogs ravenous as wolves and oftentimes as dangerous.
 But protest is being offered against the employment of cruel methods of ending the lives of these dumb animals.
 For the past two days, the marshal has been hanging these dogs beneath the stairway of the city hall in plain public view from Walnut Street. This death by strangulation is neither speedy nor humane method of kill ing the dogs and it is this against which the public doth pro- test. This duty of ridding the town of these ownerless dogs is no doubt distasteful and disagreeable one to any officer, but a humane man ner of death is due even the outcast dog.
 Ordinance No. 12, dealing with this issue, defines the duty of the marshal to be to cause all dogs found running at large from June 1 to October 31 upon the streets and alleys of New port Cor which license has not been paid) to be impounded. Within two days thereafter notices must be posted in three different places within the city limits, bearing description of dog impounded, the date of the impound- ing and notice that the said dog will be killed at the expiration of five days from date of notice. The ordinance further provides for the retaining of dogs and the fees to be charged. But all this seems unessential and the protest which is being made arises solely on the manner in which these dogs have been put to death.
