DOGS RUNNING AT LARGE.

Subscriber Expresses Appreciation Of
Councils Proposed Action.
Editor Of THE EVENING JOURNAL.
win you allow a subscriber a little
space in your paper to express my ap-
probation OF the fact that the members
Of Council are at least going TO take up
the dog nuisance. Why one can hardly
pick up a daily paper without reading
about some citizen on his way 20 work,
or a little child on his way to school being
bitten and mutilated by a savage dog
that is permitted to run at large on our
streets Surely this is not a proper con-
dtion OF affairs for the safety Of our peo-
pie and our children.
Other cities have restraining laws and
dogs running at large is not permitted for
a moment. Why not have the same condi-
tions in Wilmington, it would surely be
better. 1 am sure from the expressions
hear from all sides, good dog law would
be approved by at least two-thirds OF our
citizens. so members OF the Council please
give us good strong one and receive
the thanks Of many. Yours,
Subscriber.

STATE MILITIA
FULLY EQUIPPED
0. R. N. Already Conforms
With Provision Of Dick
Bill

January q next will be a critical date
IN the history of the National Guard, for
thereafter no portion Of tho money ap-
propriatcd by Congress for the support
OF the militia can be paid TO any Or
eanlzation that fails TO conform 20 the
standards OF the regular army Dcla-
ware will not be affected. however, the
the state militia having been already re-
organized under the Dick bill.
The Dick bill OF 1908 originally pre-
scrIbed a period Of hve years for tho
bringing about Of the considerable
changes necessary to place the guards
men In uniformity Of organization and
equipment with the regular soldier. But
as that time limit approached II was
found that very few Of the states had
been able to conform, so an extension
was granted until January q. 1910.
As that date grows near the officers OF
the War Department who are directly
charged with the administration OF the
laws IN regard TO the militia are taking
stock Of the work accomplished and cal
oulating the percentage OF the National
Guard. as II stands today, that will be
thus qualified TO retain governmental
support. Through its system Of inspec-
tlon OF militia organizations by regular
Officers the War Department is in
possession OF considerable information
regarding conditions. The detail results
will be made public in the forthcoming
annual report OF Col. Il. NJ. Weaver, chief
OF the division OF militia affairs.
On the whole the War Department ex-
presses great satisfaction in the pros
pect and the apparent success attending
the workings Of the Dick bill. Next year
for tho first time in its history, the
militia, or so much Of II as remains un-
der the caption Of 'the National Guard"
viii be found armed with the latest pat
tern OF military rule, clothed from head
to foot in regular army gear. supplied
with all regular equipment and with
ranks filed to the requirements Of the

mediate expulsion Of the Spanish am

Attention is called to the fact that
