ference to come to an understanding
on Far Eastern questions.
This explanation which comes
from official sources is designed to
answer those critics who have i'm
agined that the American govern
ment bit off more than it could
chew when it lugged in Far East
ern questions along with the prob
lem Of disarmament The American
delegation believes all the subjects
can be handled concurrently and that
while an agreement on Far Eastern
questions is necessary prerequisite
to any limitation of armament, the
whole program will be thoroughly
canvassed before final decisions are
made. Meanwhile there is a sensing
here of superfluous excitement over
the conference. Perhaps this arises
from the elaborateness of prepara-
lions being made to handle the con-
ference itself, possibly from the great
amount of attention being given it
by the newspapers. But the words of
caution are passed out largely to
avoid an artificial impression of what
really can be accomplished or what
might happen if the conference fail

DOG LAWS.

My attention has been called to the
fact that many of the people of Will
son county are disobeying the Laws
governing the ownership of Dogs,
and believing it to be due to lack
of knowledge of such Laws, this is
written with the idea of giving in
formation and warning to any one
who might unknowingly or wilfully
violate the Law.
In Chapter 81, Public Laws North
Carolina you will find most of the
Laws governing the ownership of
Dogs. Time and space forbids print
| ing the full text of these Laws. so
only few extracts from certain Sec
! tions will be included here:
Section 1872. Failing to Kill mad
dog. IF the owner of any dog shall
know, or have good reason to be-
lieve, that his dog, or any dog be-
| longing to any person under his
control, has been bitten by a Mad
| Dog, and shall neglect or refuse i'm
lmediately to kill the same, he shall
forfeit and pay the sum of Fifty
(50.O0) Dollars to him who will sue
therefor; and the offender shall be
liable to pay all damages which may
be sustained by any one, in his prop
erty or person, by the bite of any
such dog, and shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor, and fined not more
than Fifty Dollars or imprisoned not
more than thirty days.
Section 1878 Prescribes the amount
of Tax on each dog, males $1.OO and
females $500.
Section 1874 says that each dog
must wear a metal tag, issued by the
Sheriff at time of payment of the
tax, when the dog is off the premises
of the owner, except while hunting.
Section 1875 places a penalty of
Fifty dollars on the owner for failure
to list hig dog for taxes.
Section 1850 places penalty of
Fifty Dollars or thirty days in prison
on any owner who allows his dog to
run at large at night time unacom-
panied by the owner or some mem
ber of his family. Section 1852 says
that any person may kill any mad
dog, and also any dog if he is kill
ing sheep, cattle, hogs, goats, or
poultry.
1t is your moral duty as well as
your legal duty to protect yourself.
your family and neighbors from the
terrible consequences caused by mad
dog bite. The loyalty of a good dog
to his master, and likewise the loyal
ty of the master to his dog, is very
lcommendable, but when the life of
an innocent child is at stake, then
is time to forget the loyalty to
your dog and abide by the Laws
which were made to protect your

Matter is Likely to be Sent
Back to the Water Board
for Further Action.
MUCH PROTEST HEARD
What Action the Water Board
Will Now Take in Matter is
Being Questioned Today. !.

The ordinance passed by the Board
of Water Commissioners Wednes-
day against the wishes of the Board
of Aldermen has not only resulted
in members OF that board opposing
its enforcement, but Mayor William
c. Wilson this morning stated he
would not affix his signature to the
measure. Mayor Wilson explained
that he was hearing considerable
opposition on all sides and felt that
the increase was being carried prin-
cipally upon the shoulders of the
small property owners. The ilcrssss
TO the factories will be insignifcanI,
he said.
The aldermen requested the Board
of Water Commissioners not to pass
the ordinance which finally went
through Wednesday night and ver-
bally approved of another or(ii-
nance. drawn up by Superintendent
Sa muel ]. Mason and presented to
the aldermen for their approval.
This ordinance reduced the base rate
for water from fifteen to thirteen
cents per 100 cubic feet and would.
the aldermen claimed, have shown
the small consumers more considera-
tion than does the present measure
which makes the maximum amount
OF water. obtainable at the mini
mum rate of SO per quarter 1,5D0
cubic feet. All water over this
amount must be paid for at the
rate of fifteen cents per 100 cubic
feet, certain discounts being allowed

N0FIGHT
. ON ASSESSMENT
Plants Look to Senator Brown
Alone in Action of the Union
County Move.

As far as can be learned today.
the manufacturers of this city
aside from employing Senator
Thomas Brown to look after their in
terests. have taken no other meas
ures in the question raised by Union
county as to whether Middlesex
county has assessed its realty to the
full value. This question will be
taken up by the State Tax board on
Tuesday, March l. Senator Brown
has maintained that the board has
no Jurisdiction and the law is now
being examined to determine this
point If the conclusion reached is
that the board has authority in the
case. then the procedure will be dis
eussed and outlined.
When the assessments of Middle
sex county were attacked by Francis
V. Dobbins of Railway. a former as
semblyman. speaking in behalf OF
the Union county board of freehold
ers and county tax board. he claimed
that water front land in Perth Am
boy is assessed $3.50 an acre and
mat in Elizabeth at $4,000 an acre.
There is not piece of ground on
the Perth Amboy water front as
sessed near its true value" declared
Dobbins.
The manufacturing plants on the
water front here take exception 10
the statements of Mr.. Dobbins. it was
said today. and point out that the
conditions of deeper water aloag
the water front in Union county and
the vast manufacturing Interests
there, and its nearness to New YORK
city and harbor. makes comparison
between the two water fronts i'm
possible.
Mr.. Dobbins in his statement be-
fore the State Board of Taxes and
Assessments gave the figures for
which several of the plants of this
city purchased the land upon which
they are located. the figures which
lie plants have been assessed and
the figures which the plants are
worth at the present time.
According TO those who are inter-
ested in the manufacturing inter-
ests here. these figures are not so
and il has ever been said that If
Mr.. Dobbins or Union county will
offer the various plants the amounts
they were said to be worth by Mr..
Dobbins. they will gladly sell out.
No meeting or conferences have
been planned by the manufacturers
as yet.
