STATEWIDE DoG-LAW?
Statistics Produced to Show What it
Would Mean for Education.

Chapel Hill.-"Resolyed, That North
Carolina should adopt a Statewide
dog tax for the benefit of public
schools" was the query discussed by
the North Carolina at its recent semi
Monthly meeting. The debate was
supplemented by the audiences vote
on the subject, which favorably voted
Tor a Statewide levy on dogs, the de-
Cision standing % to Is.
The debate on the insistent, ever
recurring theme produced. an effective
array of facts and figures on both
sides of the argument. The enactment
OF such a Statewide law would yearly
reinforce the Golfers of the education
al fund $75, 000-leyying only so cents
or 81 on each dog. The estimated
supply of dogs in the State was placed
at 100000. -
The effective, revenue-derivin1 dor
law of Virginia was the basis around
which most of the affirmative arguz
ment was woven. Virginia ~repudiated
the dog tax of assessment county
b.. county, after repeated failures. and
adopted the Statewide system. The
ASNOAAC AAOm Ills TAX u0LS
to the school system of the State $780,

FILLED and cost of collecting the tax.
Similar laws in South Carolina and
Rhode Island, nets each State, respec-
lively, $4,000 and $4,000. Indiana
derives 100000 from a similar tax.
Ffrgures tabulated from twenty
North Carolina counties imposing q
dog tax exhibited the fact that Wake
county receives the highest revenue
$515 yearly. Onslow county, levying

recent agitation, which assumed State.
wide proportions, relative to the cou1-
ty dog tax enacted by Representative
George Pickard of Orange county
brought forth the startling announce
nlent that the county commissioners.
at a single meeting, honored bills for
cur-slain mutton to the amount OF
$276.50. The bills rate of 5000
month for sheep-kiIling dogs by a
single county was staggering, to say
the least.-S. r. Winters.

posed to paying anything for public movements when they can
avoid it. There's nothing to lose by agitating the question,
while there is a possibility of accomplishing a great deal SO
keep it up"
81 Speaking of the purposes to which the proceeds of such a tax
would be applied, Mr.. Patton said :"While I thoroughly under
stand what you mean by an advertising tax, probably it would
be well to make it clear that the funds are not to be spent al
together for advertising in publications, but for meeting the
legitimate expenses of the club, and in order that those who
would be inclined to oppose the movement for a lack OF public
spirit and not think that you are footing your own horn for ad-
vertising,' it would not be amiss for them to understand, as I do
that the funds would not be for local publicity

pared by W. A. Smith along advertising lines and the follow
ing is taken from this article:
