COCK FIGHTING.
Rutland Officer Sets Out To Make Bennins
ton Good.

ton Good.
The following is from recent issue
Of the Rutland Herald;
"Cock fighting, which is said to have
obtainted strong hold on the hearts
OF many residents of Bennington
county, has receivad setback at the
hands of the humane society. AS the
result OF visit by Humane Officer w.
W. Tower Of this city to that county
last week, an intersta @ tournament
which, it is claimed, was scheduled to
come off in a barn near Bennington
was transferred to North Hoosick, N.
Y. Mr. Tower received word that a
big fight, in which 1S birds owned at
Bennington were to be matched
against the same number of birds
from New York state, was to be pulled
off in barn at O'Clock in the morn
ing one day last week. The day
before the fight was to occur Mr. Tow
er went to Arlington and Bennington,
intending to make trouble for the
promoters of the illegal sport. These
persons, however, must have learned
of his presence, as the field of battle
was changed from Bennington to
North Hoosick, placing the contest
out of the jurisdiction of Vermont Of
fcers.
ut is said that cock fighting is car
ried on in Bennington county on a
large scale, the fights, which usually
are pulled off in the small hours OF
the morning, being attended by many
high officials of the town and county.
The officers Of the humane society are
determined to put stop to this
sport"
This from Rutland is calculated to
make the natives laugh. Cock fight
ing in Bennington in its balmiest days
didn't begin to be as menacing to the
morals Of the community as an ordi.
nary Rutland drug store in times Of
peace. Mr. Tower is welcome to Ben
nington but most of the cock fighting
he will be called on to stop will be in
his own mind.
