Requesting the legislature of Wiscon-
sin to pass a general compulsory
dog tax law to apply throughout
the state or in such counties as
may, by their respective county
boards. adopt the same.
To the Honorable, the Senate and As
sembly of Wisconsin:
The memorial of the County Board
of Vernon county respectfully repre-
sents that, whereas, the destruction OF
sheep by dogs and other damage done
by such animals has become so com
mon as to become a public nuisance
calling for immediate legislative ac-
ton to the end that the sheep-killing
and worthless dogs. usually owned by
some worthless citizen, be destroyed
and
Whereas. The judgment of this
County Board is that a general licens-
ing of dogs and eXacting of a license
fee and providing for the summary ex-
termination of all dogs not licensed,
without creating any new official po-
sitions, is the only means of bringing
about the desired result, we most re-
specially ask at the hands of the leg
islature such legis station, and that the
fund thus created ne retained in each
county treasury to be paid to the owns
ers of sheep destroyed by dogs upon
due proof of such destruction to the
extent of = per cent of the value of
the sheep SO killed until the exhaus-
ton of such fund.
