OR PAY BIG FINE
Commissioner of Agriculture Quar-
antines Dogs of Whitman County

Enforce the Law

To Whom 1t May Concern:
Whereas the infectious disease,
rabies or hydrophobia has appeared
in this state and is spreading with
alarming rapidity, a proper safe
guarding of the lives of the public
demands that every effort be made
to Immediately check the progress of
the dread disease, fatal alike to live
stock and human beings. AS this in
lection is spread almost entirely by
the bite of rabid dogs, it becomes of
the utmost Importance that every
dog not closely confined be provided
with and caused to wear at all times
struction until such time as the COM
missioner of agriculture is convinced
that the danger is over.
Notice of Quarantine
The fact has been determined and
notice is hereby given that con-
tagious, communicable disease,
known as rabies or hydrophobia eX
lists in the state of Washington.
Now, therefore, |, H. T. Graves,
acting commissioner of agriculture.
under authority conferred by Chap
ter 10, Laws of 1917, do hereby
quarantine the entire counties of
Spokane, Pend Oreille, Whitma an,
Garfield, Asotin. Columbia, Walla
Walla, Franklin, Adams, Lincoln,
Ferry, Stevens, Okanogan, Chelan,
Douglas, Grant, Benton, Kittitas,
Klckitat, and Yakima, and establish
the following rules and regulations:
/. All dogs running at large
within the boundaries of the coun-
ties herein specified shall be prop
erly and securely muzzled so as to
prevent their biting other dogs or
animals; provided, that this rule
shall not apply to dogs under leash
or securely confined on the premises
of their owner.
,. No dogs shall be transported
or moved from the territory herein
before quarantined to any point out
side the quarantined area unless per-
mission has first been secured from
the commissioner or his authorized
agent.

MUST CLEAN SNOW
AND ICE FROM WALKS
Ordinance Before City Council De-
signed to Keep Passages Open
During Heavy Shows
of Winter.

Should a new ordinance intro
duced before the city council Tues
day evening be acted upon favor
ably by that body it will be a mis-
demeanor for any owner or occupant
of property within the city to allow
snow or ice to remain on the side
walks bordering on the property for
more than II hours after the snow
has ceased falling The ordinance
was given the first reading Tues
day evening but the four members
of the council who were present ex-
pressed desire to postpone action
until Il full council could give the
new measure consideration. The
informal discussion of the provisions
of the ordinance was favorable to it
but doubt was expressed that they
could enforce the provisions widely
enough to justify the enactment of
the ordinance.

II. T. GRAVES,
Acting Commissioner of Agriculture
Dated February 10, 1917.
Effective five days after date of
publication.
Wage War on Local Dogs
While the order of the commits
sioner of agriculture probably will
not be enforced strictly by the local
city officials many of them expressed
this week a desire to have all the
dogs in the city muzzled or confined
closely. Instructions were issued
this week to the chief of police and
the street commissioner to get to-
gether on the proposition and plan a
campaign to nab all dogs whose own
ers do not comply with the state law
and city ordinance. The city officials
appear more interested in the en-
forcement of the city ordinance and
the collection of the dog tax thereby
provided for than in the ruthless
Staying of all dogs who do not wear
muzzles. The order of the state COM
missioner does not require that city
officials enforce the order but, gives
to any person the right to kill any
dog that is not provided with the
anti-bite equipment.

Police Chief Salary Worries

Whether or not the chief of police
is entitled to collect fees for maxi
ing arrests and serving processes
while receiving a regular salary from
the city must be decided before ac-
ton is taken on another ordinance
prepared by the city attorney to COM
ply with the provisions of the new
state law governing police depart
ments in the smaller cities.
The legislative act greatly ex-
tends the powers of the police Off
Ger whose title is changed from mar
shall to chief of police. 1t gives the
officer authority to pursue a culprit
and make an arrest outside the city
limits. and provides that he shall en-
JOY all other powers conferred upon
sheriff, In this connection the
chief is apparently entitled to collect
fees for making arrests and serving
papers in addition to the regular sal
airy paid by the city Such an in
depreciation is placed on the law by
City Attorney Dow but members of
the council are Directing to the dou-
BILE salary provision. The ordinance
was given first reading Tuesday ev-
ening.

EDITOR
The Purchasing Department

As a matter Of principl" the committee "f the
board of supervisors that favor$ d"iuc away with
the purchasing agent for the city and county is
wrong.
The only thing that can hr cited in favor Of wip-
ing out the purchasing department is the signal
failure of the administration of the Office during
the recent months under review.
When the system inaugurat"d under I'ur-
chasing Agent Bolts il was generally found to he a
success. And the record Indicates that it is the
old story of the man the job rather than the
system that is at fault
The ma jOrity of the committee made up of Super
vis0rs Mott Smith and Mcclellan state that one
of two things should I've done: EITHER reorganize
the department, giving it considerably larger force
and more power. or do away with it,"
The answer to be made to this by Combination
OF men bent on gaining efficiency in he government
of the city is to take the action that will best pro
tect the money of the taxpayers.
If the principle of the purchasing department is
right, and the best business methods of The present
day indicate that it is. there is Just one thing for
competent managers to do-deyeIop the department
along the lines that will make il what Il purchasing
department should I've.
The supervisors have everything 10 work with.
They have the legislative authority. the means and
the opportunity.
