from long distances and all have
remarked that it is the most

NEW DOG LAW RELATING TO
TAGS.
The Full Provisions OF the Law Have Spec.
ial Interest al the Present Time.

The new dog law of June I, 1907,
relating to tags is invested with
special interest in this section
through the outbreak among the
dogs that has occurred recently.
Very few people are acquainted with
the new law except in a general
way.
The act provides that all dogs be
required to wear a substantial COL
lar to which shall be attached a tag,
said collar to be furnished by the
o'ner of the dog and said tag to be

, dogs neglect to pay the tax assess
ed it is the duty of the proper tax
collector to give either written or
verbal notice to the owner that if
he fails to pay such tax and also tc
comply with the provisions as tc
collar and tag within ten days, OF
% kill the dog himself within said
time, said dog will thereupon be
killed by the constable of the proper
district.
In case of default by any sucl
owner as to complying with The re
quirements of this act and particu
larly with section four as to pay
ment of tax, wearing collar anc
tag, and killing his said dog, i
shall thereupon be the duty of the
AK collector, and shall also be the
light and privilege of any citizen o
he proper district, to notify the
roper constable Of the said distric
of such failure and default and il
thereupon becomes the duty of sale
constable to kill said dog. And il
either case it shall thereupon bt
the duty of such constable to xii
all such dogs; and for such service
said constable shall be entitled tC
receive for each dog killed by him
from the county commissioners, o
of the fund realized from the taxa
tion of dogs. the sum of fifty cents
| Section sixth provides that every

Hughesville Fair.

The Hughesville Fair, which
opens on Tuesday, September II,
and continuing for four days, prom
ises to be the best ever held in the
history of the organization. Many
improvements have been and are
being made on the grounds, while
the premium list has been revised
and the amounts given to exhibi-
tors has been largely increased,
which will greatly increase the
number of exhibits.
There will be six contests of
speed.
The exhibitions in front of the
grand stand will be the best money
can secure, consisting of balloon as
tensions each day by John Kelley,
one of the most daring aronauts in
the country, Jacoby and Klase,
jugglers and performers on the
trapeze, Prof. Harry Smith, slack
wire and contortionist, and Smiths
celebrated dog show.
Besides the above on the midway
will be found many attractions, in
cluding a miniature railway, vaude-
vile and other shows, equally as
attractive and rivalling in a modest
way the "War Path at the James
town exhibition.
Special excursion rates on all
railroads.

in this respect.
The directors of West Berwick
have purchased a fine site and upon
it have erected a handsome ? room
brick building at cost of about
S35, 900 to accommodate the rapid
ly increasing population. 1t is well
equipped with most modern appli-
ances and apparatus and reflects
much credit upon the directors and
the community; it is to be dedicat-
ed soon. A two story frame addi-
ton was built at North Berwick,
the upper room of which is occupi-
ed by the township high school.
The schools Of our large boroughs
have never been as efficient as now.
The regularity of attendance is re-
markable. Bloomsbury has a new
course of study which is one of the
best we have ever seen. In Berwick
the attendance is constantly increas-
ing in spite of the fact that there is
much there to tempt the older pu
pills to drop out and work. West
Berwick high school graduated its
first class; the commencement was
a great success.
An educational picnic was held
at Rupert grove on June Sth. This
was the beginning of what we hope
will become a permanent educa-
tional feature in the future. About
600 interested people attended and
it proved a very happy occasion.
DR.. Waller made the address.
Our Normal School is in excel
lent condition; the equipment SO
sorely needed to provide for the
great increase Of students has been
secured an excellent faculty is in
charge and the attendance is still
growing. The effect of an increas-
ed efficiency of our common and
high school system is beginning to
be seen i'll the number of students
from this county who attend this
institution as we'll as in the more
adequate preparation they have up
on entering. About 90 per cent.
of our teachers are Normal gradu-
ateS.
Besides attending to a greatly in
creased amount of routine work. |
have made over 800 visits to the
schools, having gone to some sever
al times where there was need OF
special assistance; l have made ovel
90 public addresses upon education
al subjects, having never refused &
single call where the dates did moi
conflict; conducted an eight weeks
summer school at Benton and took
an eight weeks course in Cornell
University for the purpose of gain
ing new ideas and increased capaci
ty.
Our teachers have labored faith
fully and have stood by me most
loyalty; our directors have done al
they could to assist me, while the
boys and girls generally are doing
tiS bSoN tiiSJ Noh W SS>uiS OH SNilt
cation. If results are to measure
success, this has been a year o.
great encouragement and much
promise. Yet there is much to be
done which is scarcely begun. With
continuance of the present atti,
tude of the people, I am sure the
coming year will produce results
still more gratifying.
l feel deeply indebted to the edi-
tors of our various papers for Their
generosity; have been materially
assisted by the officials of the State
Department; I appreciate fully the
support good people of this county
have given me. To all these 1 glad
ly extend my most sincere graft.

future efforts may be worthy of the
commentator of those whom
serve.

With conlmendable energy and
pride in Brownsville, Messrs. Nc

of which the city market has been
provided with tor the past two or
three months.
The fruits included oranges,
lemons, bananas, papaws, figs

All of these are samples of the
semi-tropic fruits which succeed

WEDNESDAY, APRIL "a, 1907
THE GLAD HAND TO HOUS-
TON.

On behalf of the people of Browns
vile, the Business Mems Club, and
on its own behalf especially, THE
HERALD extends a most cordial
welcome 10 the Houston Business
Men, who have done Brownsville
the honor to come ali the way here
to get acquainted with her people.
THE HERALD realizes fully the i'm
portance of such acquaintance to
our city, and hopes that both pleas
ant and lasting relations between
the great metropolis of South Tex
as-the queenly city of Houston
and the future great metropolis of
the lower Rio Grande-Browns-
ville-may result from this visit.
Houston has already achieved a
large measure of greatness, and has
prospects of becoming one of the
largest and most influential cities
of the entire South. With such an
enterprising and intelligent citi-
zenship as shepossesses, she should
easily reach the topmost heights.
Brownsville is at the first round
as yet, but she has a firm footing,
and the boundless resources with
which Nature has endowed the sur
rounding country make everything
possible to her. Millions of dollars
are now pouring into the Browns
vile section, and the electric touch
of capital and enterprise is already
beginning to awaken new life
here, which gives promise of de
velopment that will astonish be
holders within the next decade.
In conclusion, THE HERALD
hopes the small beginnings which
are now visible here may be sup
plemented in the minds of our visit
ors by the full.measure of good will
and hearty welcome which Our peo-
pie extend to them.

Eight and Power Company. Mrp
Lsngenecker said that he could
finance the project. if the franchise
be amended to extend the. term of
ownership, before the city should
have the right to buy the plant,
from twenty TO fifty years. He
felt, however, that he had come
too late. as the city ownership
move was now on foot, but. in
case this move should fail, he
would like to submit the PROPOSE
ton as stated.
Mr. Longeuecker has gone,to
some expense and trouble in this
matter and has returned to
Brownsville from Chicago, hoping
to secure the franchise for the cap
italists whom he represents. While
THE HERALD hopes and believes
that the city ownership plan may
succeed. yet, in the event it
should not. tnrough any unfore-
seen cause, it feels that Mr..
Longeneeker would be a man in
whose hands the enterprise might
worthily be trusted.
