COUNTY BOARD
FINISHES BUSINESS

At its session yesterday morning
the county board repealed the ordi-
nance providing for the muzzling of
dogs in the county. This ordinance,
which was enacted on the 9th day of
May, 1915. has had the effect of rid
ding Winnemucca of large number
of worthless ours, and there are at
present perhaps not to exceed twenty
five dogs in town. For nearly 16
months owners who wished to keep
their dogs have been compelled to
put on and take off muzzles a dozen
times day, but did so uncomplain-
ingly, as the law was recognized as
a public necessity.
