EIGHT Dogs NOW
IN CITY POUND.

The dog catcher is now on the
Job and any stray dog found at
liberty on the streets or alleys of
Salem, regardless OF collar or dog
license, is wandering about in
peril of his life. The. stray dog has
no legal standing in Salem and
Walt S. Low, city street commits
sioner, has turned loose his off
cial dog catcher.
There is now in the dog pound,
awaiting either an owner or some
one who wants dog, eight pretty
fine specimens, Mr.. Low says
These include a bird dog, collie
and Spitz.
After the preliminary advertis-
ing of five days, and should no
one come to claim the dogs, they
will be invited into the air tight
dog house from which no dog re-
turns.
When a stray dog is captured
and taken to the pound, there is
fee of 50 for redemption if this
is the dogs first offense of being
found running at large. II the dog
happens to have strayed before
and captured, then a payment of

81 is required for redemption.
In addition to this legal charge,
whoever redeems the dog, will
be asked to pay the dogs board
for the time he lived at the city's
expense. This is rather nominal,
as 1t has been found that a dogs
board costs the city only ten
cents a day.
Mr.. Low says he has never
found 1t necessary to invite a
really fine dog into the gas tank
from which no dog traveller re-
turns, as either owners call for
their dogs, or the advertisement
attracts attention of those who
need a good dog. 1t is only dogs
of the tramp style that suffer the
extreme penalty of the law.

STATE REQUESTS
PROSECUTIONOF
PHONE COMPAN

Steps to collect penalties from
the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph
company for failure to comply
with an order Of the public sery-
ice commission requiring segrega-
tion Of the company's depreciation
reserve fund SO as to set out the
Oregon reserve from that Of the
other states in which the company
operates, were taken by the com
mission Thursday when the infor-
nation was placed in the hands Of
district Attorney John Carson Of
Marion county who has been asked
to institute the necessary court
action.
Under the oregon public utfli-
ties act, utility corporations
which fail to comply with orders
of the commission are subject to
penalties Of not less than 800
nor more than $4,000 for each
violation.
Board Order Ignored.
The Oregon law grants to the
public service commission the
right to prescribe the forms of
all books, accounts, papers and
records used by the utility cor
porations in keeping their ac-
counts and records.
Under the provisions Of this
law the commission, in its order
Of May l., 1919, granting to the
Pacific company an increase in
T.. telephone rates, required that
its proper portion of the existing
depreciation reserve be segregated
to the state of Oregon in a sep
Rrate account and that hereafter
this reserve account for Oregon
shall be so kept and reported as
to show all details as now and
heretofore shown for the entire
property"
Stalling Charged.
This order, the commission
points out, has been ignored by the
telephone company and on Novem-
ber 20, 1919, another order re-
quiring segregation of the depre-
citation reserve was made which
has also been ignored, the com
pany SO far having failed to com
ply with the order.
Members OF the commission ex-
plain that officials of the tele-
phone company have persisted In
'stalling" them off in their de-
mands for this segregation until
1t has become necessary to seek
court action to collect the penal
ties attached for violation OF its
orders.
