HE LIKES DOGS(FD
Ell Paso, Texas, Feb 10.


Ell Paso, Texas, Feb. 10.
Editor FL Paso Herald:
Quite a little has been said within the
last few months in the columns of your
paper regarding dogs. most Of them
scoring the dog catcher and his meth
DDS, the pound especially, and defend
ing the dog
II have had quite a little experience
with dogs within the last few years,
considerably more than the majority Of
people. and 1 dare say more In a month
than their defenders in a lifetime and
1 have yet to find single reason why
a dog OF any kind should be allowed
within the corporate limits Of a civil
lied community.
A city dog is practically useless for
warding off thieves; is not desirable as
a pet, because they sometimes develop
a case Of rabies and is a constant an
noyance to neighbors during the day
and often at night II inclined to be
noisy. They are either friendly or vic
ious one being about as desirable as
the other.
If We must have dogs in the city,
we ought to have the dog catcher on
his job the year round and let him de-
stroy all dogs found on the streets
without muzzles and collars, regardless
avoid the necessity Of placing them IN
the pound, to which some seem to OBJ
ject.
But why all this Iuss about dogs,
anyway? Why not ask the city coun-
Gil to enact an ordinance prohibiting
all dogs within the city limits, and
thereby at one stroke dispose Of this
whole vexing question?
