the following answered through the
columns of the paper: Is this dog
tax business just another graft per-
petrated on the over-burdened tax

police, authorized by the county
commissioners, begins a campaign

tag is secured, notice of warning
published in the paper, and some
person or persons unmanly enough

catcher.

pie, and especially the poorer class
shut their dog or dogs in the house
or yard or keep them on the ent
of a chain. This is only necessar!

willing to pay what they think
a just and honest tax are soon re
