BLOOD HOUNDS WANTED.

r. @. Ogden, prominent and sub
stantial citizen of the lower end of
the county, makes a splendid sugges-
tion. He writes to the Telegram that
he believes 1t would be a good idea
for the County Court to purchase
some blood hounds and keep them at,
say Clarksburg, and employ some one
to care for and keep them as county
charge for use in the county, and pay
for the same by taxation, and, If used
n the county to be free for that pur.
pose; If used outside the county the
parties using them to pay for their
use. He adds that he for one would
DO willing to pay his part of the tax
alton for the same. He states that
there is a lot of petty thieving go,
ing on in the county, and other
crimes, which he believes would be
broken up, If blood hounds were kept
as they would run down the guilty
and deter others.
Mr.. Ogden makes a very good sug-
gestion. In Marion county blood
hounds have been pressed into ser.
vice and in several instances Grim.
inals of the worst type have been
brought to justlce-criminals who
would have escaped, if the hounds
had not been used, They were
doubtless resorted to because of the
readiness by which they could be
had from Moundsville, the nearest
point where they were kept.
Even an instance occurred in this
county few days ago; in which
Houndsville hounds we're used. But
it is not only expensive but 1t also
delays matters to have to send an
hundred miles away to get the dogs.
Were they kept here not many hours
could elapse with telephones and the
telegraph in use, before the hounds
would be on the scene and the Grim.
mails caught. That Is certainly an
endorsement Of the idea well worth
considering.
Also as has been said fear of be-
ing run down before there was
chance to escape would deter many
from the commission Of crime, and
that within itself would be ample re.
ward for the expenditure in keeping
the hounds. The suggestion appeals
strongly to many who believe in law
and order, even though they must
share in extra expense to preserve
the same-Clarksburg Telegram.
The above editorial is along the
line Of an article in the West Virgin,
ian few days ago. A Marion county
citizen after reading our editorial
made a similar suggestion to that Of
the Harrison county resident and we
heartily indorse the plan. 1t appeals
to US as a very sensible idea. The
presence of two nice, large, true,
scented blood-hounds at the county
seat would make many fellow stop
and think before he started on a mis-.
sion Of crime.
