effort to secure the State Capitol

earthly show for us to get it, and
the effort would be both costly and
useless. Now let's all work for a
new Capitol at Frankfort, COM

UNDER THE LICENSE Law.
Question Which Arose Regarding the
Tax on Dogs


A somewhat interesting question Of law,
Of local application. has arisen as the out
come Of a bet between two friends on the
dog tax question. One of the individuals
referred to insists that If the woman recent
ly arrested and sentenced to the work.
house for keeping several dogs without q
license had served the full term Of her sem
tence in the workhouse. and upon being re-
leased from that institution failed to pro-
cure the necessary license. she could not be
again taken into custody for the reason
that she had satisfied the demands OF the
law and could not be tried twice for the
same offense. The view of the other bettor
is that the woman could be tried as often
as the police arrested her, If she failed to
secure the license. The Star was requested
to decide the bet.
The practice of the Police Court, 1t Is
learned. has been to repeatedly fine owners
OF dogs who have failed to procure licenses
tehrefor. This practice however, has never
been attacked, nor has the law been tested
1t Is admitted at the Police Court That the
question Is q nice one.
Competent legal authority, closely asso-
ciated with the law department of the Dis
trict government inclines to the opinion
that, under section of the act of Con-
gress approved June 10, 1878, '1evying
tax upon all dogs In the District of Co.
lumbia. to make such dogs personal prop
erty, and for other purposes" the owner
OF the dogs In question is not subject to
further prosecution. The dogs, though, ao-
cording to the authority referred to, If not
provided with tags, are open to The raids
OF the poundmaster, Notwithstanding the
owner had paid a fine or served a term of
Imprisonment as the penalty for not having
procured tax tags for the animals.

OIL AS DUST PREVENTIVE.
Its Use on Dirt Roads Of the District
Declared Unsuccessful.

The use Of oil on the dirt roads in the
District to prevent dust has not produced
satisfactory results, according to the re-
port submitted to Commissioner Biddle
today by Mr. A. W. Dow. inspector of as
phalts and cements, and the experiments
in this direction will be discontinued, at
least until next spring
The proposition to harden the beds of
dirt roads by the use of oil was first
taken up by the District authorities sew
eral months ago. The plan was suggested
by the successful use of oil on the roads
in California, and the Commissioners pro-
vided for the purchase of quantity or
oil for the experiments.
According to Mr.. BOWS report fourteen
experiments were made with Texas oils
on D street northwest between 18th street
and Virginia avenue.
I'm no case" says Mr.. Dow. has the
road been apparently hardened by any of
these mixtures as are the roads treated
with California Oil, and it is very doubt
full, in my mind, if we can get any such
condition from the oils experimental
with. Experiment No. 8, where the very
light oil was used, was the only case in
which the mixture soaked into the road
readily.

their flowing and penetration into the
soil that believe 1T to be waste of time
and money to do any further experiment.
