MUZZLE YOUR DOG

AAAHILE the edict of Mayor
~ Dyer today requires the
muzzling of all dogs in
the city will be unwelcome to
many dog owners, there should
be no hesitancy about obeying
it. The dread rabies has found
foothold in Pendleton and
any and all measures that will
tend to check it in its incipi-
ency and thus protect the pub
lie health and safety are de-
fensible.
The one dog known to have
been rabid was about the city
while the disease was develop
ing. 1t is known to have bitten
several other dogs and the pro-
liability is that it bit still 9TH
ers unknown to anyone. Any
animal that is on Une streets
may now be affected with the
malady. Practically the only
method by which the disease
spreads is through infected an
imals biting other animals.
With all dogs muzzled this
danger may be reduced to the
minimum.
Rabid dogs not only bite
other dogs. They sometimes
attack children or older peo.
pie and thus become a menace
to human life. Such a menace

cHECKMATED

~ R. LEWIS is the state
JT highway engineer and
has supervision of all
state roadwork. The attorney
general some months ago in
terpreted the law to that effect
and the supreme court has Just
confirmed his opinion. Gov
ernor Withycombe and Treas
urer Kay, who were not inclin-
ed to accept the. attorney gen.
erals ruling after it was given
them, have no choice but to ac-
cept the ruling of the highest
court of the state. Therefore
Mr.. Cantine must be a subordi-
nate, however much it may be
diSpleasing to their ideas of the
general fitness Of things.
1t was no part of the inten-
tion of the politicians that Mr.
Lewis should have charge of
the roadwork when they set
about to depose Mr.. Bowlby
hut there is an old saying about
the best laid plans of mice and
rten and, after all, politicians
are not more than men nor less
than mice.
The governor and treasurer
have made rather a sorry spec
tacle Of themselves by attempt
ing to carry out the wishes OF
the politicians by arbitrary
rulings.

WHAT WE EAT

~ HE admission of horse
" flesh to the markets of
New York by authority
Of the board of health of that
city may seem incongruous
with traditional preference,
not to say prejudice, says the
Boston Post. But is it not
clearly observable that the de-
velopment of gustatory taste is
in the extension of the range of
choice in things which we may
eat?
1t is only a few years ago
that our butchers for popular
consumption threw away the
sweet breads which today are
the highest priced delicacies Of
the menu. If you want them
now, where we used to take
them as thrown in" with the
meat for which a price is to be
paid, there is surperlative
charge.
And so it is with the food
which we eat all along the line.
What did we know of sword
fish a few years ago? Try it
and see what we think Of it
now. And breadfruit, an i'm
portation from warmer climes;
and grapefruit, a delicacy
from our own possessions ;
these have become necessities
.of pleasureable living.
Why not horse flesh? The
tenderloin of hippo-beef may
yet find its place in our sched-
ule.
