WANT HERDLAN
SUSPENDED IN
THIS COUNTY
PETITION NOW BEFORE BOARD
OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
BUT NO ACTION HAS BEEN IA
KEN so FAR-Do NOT FAVOR

A lengthy petition from some OK
the citizens from Graham and Hewitt
townships, has been filed with the
board of county commissioners, ask
ing that the herd, or stock law be
suspended in this county.
Chairman Taliaferro stated this
morning that he was not very favor
ably inclined toward this movement,
and from his conversation he did not
seem to care to take any such action
as requested. All of the eastern and
southeastern part of the county want
the law rigidly enforced and keep
stray cattle out of their crops. and
Mr. Taliaferro stated that the request
would have to be very near unanimous
from any section of the county be-
fore the board in his opinion would
take any action. Stock running at
large the board. maintains is a menace
to growing crops, and for that reason
they are inclined to let the law remain
as it is.
Some action will probably be taken
in the matter before the board finally
adjourns tomorrow afternoon.
