From present Indications our ordl'
nance relating to dogs will be more
strictly enforced this year than it has
ever been before. Up to yesterday
morning SO dog licenses had been Is
sued, ten owners Of dogs paying for 2
dog licenses each. Under the impress
sion that dogs under one year old did
not require the official dog tag to per-
NIT them to be at large, Emil G. Hage,
Cashier of the Brown County Bank,
secured a dog license for only one OF
his dogs early last fall. About a
week ago his young pup was impoun-
ded by the official dog catcher and
after being released, was re.impoun-
ded on Monday. Mr.. Hage sat up
and took notice as soon as this hap
pened and after learning that pups
were not exempt, he paid the license
for this dog also. In making inquiry
last week at the city clerks Office, he
learned that c. F. Ruemke, alderman
of tho second ward and Albert j.
Meyer, city clerk, we're the only ones
of the city's official family who had
enough regard for the city's laws to
live up to them. Mr.. Hage's boiler
had the result that one Of the members
of the city council paid license for his
dog on Saturday and an employe OF
the city came across with the license
fee of 81. 90 yesterday. Mr.. Hage says
that he is quite sure that there are
more delinquents among the city's or
fetal family and what is more that he
will see to it that this ordinance relat-
ing to dogs is strictly enforced and
th at If there should be disposition on
the part of the city officials to be
derelict in this matter that he will see
to it that other ordinances which are
being openly violated are also en-
forced.
