SHOULD HAVE DOG TAX.

There are large number of useless
dogs running about town. They are
no good to their owners and no good to
the community at large. They keep up
a barking and yelping at night, scare
women and children, frighten horses
and make themselves a nuisance in
general. Most cities and towns have
license and every dog is required to
wear tag or be taken in by the dog
catcher. This is good scheme. Be-
sides putting little money in the
treasury it rids the community of num-
erous worthless ours We believe it
would be wise to ADOPT s"ch plan here.
This can only be done at an annual cleo
tion and must be submitted to the vote
of the electors.
