keaardtns the Dog Law.

There seems to be an impression
throughout the country that if man
has his dog assessed as personal prop
erty, that this is absolute protection to
the dog and that no one under any
circumstances whatever would have
right to kill a dog SO assessed. Such is
not the law. The following is the law
to such cases and we trust it will be
carefully read, especially the last
clause here prin ed, by those of our
subscribers who keep dogs:
"Sec. Ga /, Oh. 20, Acts 1908. That
it shall be lawful, if he so choose, for
the owner of any dog to have the
same listed by county assessor Of
any county in this state, the same as
all other personal property is listed
and taxed; and when the owner of any
such dog shall have paid the taxes as.
sessed against the same, such dog shall
be deemed property in the meaning Of
the law.
"Any person who shall willfully, or
maliciously steal, poison, wound or
kill am such dog or dogs listed as per-
ssnal property as aforesaid, shall upon
conviction be punished as provided by
law for stealing, poisoning or wound-
ing or killing other property; and the
owner of such dog or dogs, so stolen,
wounded, poisoned or killed, after
complying with the provisions of this
act, may have right Of actien DANA
ges against any such person orpersons
guilty of violation of the provisions
Of this act for the sum not exceeding
the assessed valle of such dogs or
dogs.
"But nothing in this act shall pre-
vent the killing OF any vicious or dan
gerous dog off the premises and out of
control of the owner; nor the killing
of any dog running at large and out of
the control of the owner thereof, and
after such owner shall have had notice
and still permits such dog to run at
large and out of his control, and no
person shall be liable in dam ages or to
prosecution by reason of any such kill.

Street Paving.

The work of street paving which has
made such progress during the past
year or two but which has been sus-
pended since last fall is about to be re-
sumed again, we are glad to say.
When the winter set in about Christ
mas time the work of paving on West
King street from the Public Square to
Maple avenue was incomplete and the
street has been a wrstched condition
all the est of the winter, owing to the
fact that the water pipes had been dug
up shortly before.
The Street committee of the city
council met on Friday night and de-
eided to have the work pushed to COM
pletion at once. The pecessary bricks
have been ordered az d will arrive in a
few days and as soon as the sidewalks
are down and the bricks are here. Con-
tractor Brooks will resume operations,
Under the new charter the council
may order pavements laid and assess.
the cost up to the property owners
This ought to give the city council
All opportunity to make improve 70 ents
in the way of paving and in few
years about all the principal streets
ought to be paved.

"West Virginia, like other States

which was up before the recent session
of the legislature to submit to the peo-

postpones a Statewide prohibition

preston that eventually we shall
have in West Virginia some kind of
State prohibition law. The time Of the
last session of the legislature was
largely taken up by consideration of
tax bills, most Of which were inspired
by the generally prevailing opinion
that State vide liquor lew would be
passed, thereby depriving the State of
large source of revenue.

M,s. T.rbell on me r.rl,s Bill Of 1909

In the April American Magazine,
Ida Nj. Tarbeli, throwing sidelight
on the most lively question now before
Congress, says
"Who makes tariff Bill? The ques-
ton is permitted in view of what is
now going Oh in Washington. Busy
ana traslful citizens impressed by the
hustle and CHATTER of long-continued
hearings and debates and awed by the
seeming authority and painstaking OF
the thousands of pages Of reports IS
sued, naturally conclude that it is Con-
gress. Any member of that bedy asked
the question would scout the very ask
ing of it. Who. indeed, if not Con-
gress? There is body of citizens In
the con airy, however, who think dif.
ferently. They are those in whose ln-
terests the bill is principally made.
az wrote the bill of 1870, the late
Joseph Wharton, iron master, steci
master and nickel king, once told the
writer proudly. Three men will make
the next tariff bill, not one Of them
member of Congress, Mr.. Havemyer
told David A. Wells in 1894. He was
right. That bill, like all its predeces-
sors, for nearly forty years, was made
in practices by the representatives q
wood and wooden, Of iron and steel and
sugar. And in spite of all the signs %
the contrary it is probable they VIII
control the bill Of 1909. We may say 70
ourselves this is impossible. This time
the voice OF the people 10 too clear,
this time the game is too apparent.
But the game is no mere clear, ana
the voice Of the people no louder tnan
in 1S7O-in 1882-'3-in 1856 I'm
1928. Just so long as the commit
tees making tariff bills look to the
manufacturers who profit by duties 40
the chief source of their Information,
just SO long those manufacturers will
practically frame the bill. They VIII
frame it alse as they have always done
without respect for the protective
principle itself. No one can study the
drift of public opinion in each OF the
great agitations Of the tariff question
in the last fifty years without realizing
that at least nine-tenths of the people
have stood only for such duties as
would produce needed revenue ana
would give Industries which were try
ing to prove their ability to exist in the
United States, protection through a
limited period. But when it came TO
the point the people have never had
such duties, and on most articles they
are farther from getting them today
than they were at the close of the
Civil War.

The Toast to the Bride.

An old sweetheart of mines to be mar
ried tonight,
So come, b'ys, let's bring her gooo
cheer;
Well fll up the goblets-the bubbles
are light
And drink to her smiie-may it ever
be bright,
Dispellmg in joy every tear.
There, boys; know what you're 60
ing to say
For didn't you all love her, too!
ashes fiirtp-so she is, but what
matters today
When the hope In her heart is az fresh
as the May
And her love is as deep as the blue?
So, come, boys the glasses that's it
lift them high,
And drink till the last drop is gone;
Well laugh and Wen sing and meier
utter sigh;
Through despair's in our hearts, we'll
give it the lie,
And swear our loves dusk is loves
dawn.

Out Of Politics.

A resolution pledgiDg the support OF
| the Baltimore Methodist Conference 70
President Taft and his Administration
caused considerable excitement in the
ministers meeting atRroadway church
| in Baltimore. The resolution was pre-
scented by Rev. w. /. McKenny, pas
tor of Broadway church, and stated
Taft as elected IN the Providence Of
God, etc.
DR.. McKenney had not said the last
word when half dozen men were on
their feet cIamoring for recognition
from the chair. Bishop Hamilton re-
cognized Or. George Bacon, who de-
clared that this conference had other
business to attend TO than meddilng
in politics
"We are assembled to transact
church business, and nothing else he
said. "We have absolutely no BUSH
ness passing such resolution as
that
Rev. E. G. Gallaher moved that the
resolution be laid on the table. DR..
Bacon said he did not want the meas
urs laid on the table, as this action
might be misunderstood.
Rev Jsb A. Price said he was Taft
man, but that he did not believe the
conference should pledge itself to the
support of any man for four years
"Ycu can't tell what he may do in
that time," said Mr.. Price, land GER
tainly would not commit myself to the
support of any human man for that
length of time.n
d. G.. Herbert Richardson, IN reply
to the statement that the members Of
the conference were citizens as well as
members of that body, said:
1--WE are not citizens when We are
members of this conference. Taft was
elected as the candidate of political
party and against the votes of millions
Of our people"
DR.. Bacon saidthat any such res
loution would hurt the Church.
'rhe Methodist Episcopal Confer
ence has always been regarded as
sort Of Republican institution" con-
tinued Mr.. Bacoa. "Rem ember where
we are. We are in Maryland, not in
the North, and we are dealing with
white people, not with negroes"
