VICIOUS DOG ATTACKS
 COUNCILMAN SOLBERG

On Tuesday afternoon M. 0. Sol berg was attacked by loose dos and received a severe bite in his right leg. Three teeth penetrated the skin and made quite nasty wound.
 Mir. Solberg was visiting in the neighborhood north of the Tele- phone office and on his way back to Front Street crossed the vacant lot east of the Hobbe's residence. As he started across the lot he heard a dog barking but gave no heed and ire next thing he realized the ani- nal had grabbed him by the right leg. inficting a three hole wound that required medical attention.
 The animal is small female evidently owned by the natives Hv- ing in the neighborhood and has been running loose for some time.
 A menace of this kind should be removed for it is mere forerun- ner of what may happen to some defenseless child. An ordinance will be presented at the next meet ing of the City Council and the pres epce of dogs within the city limits be regulated more strictly.
 The experience of MT. soibere iustifies direct action by onyone an noyed by loose dogs.
