Complaints about the noise made by
dogs throughout the night are increasing
all the time. The owners of these dis
turbers of the nocturnal peace are zap.
parently undisturbed and therefore in
different to who else is unable to sleep.
No person would be allowed to keep a
dance every night to the disturbance of
his n%eighbors nor be permitted to scream
in his yard all night if he wished TO.
and when dog owners allow their ami
mails to become a similar nuisance they
are guilty of the same offence in an in
direct way. A dog that banks all night
or bowls without occasion is no use as
a watchdog and there is no excuse for
having such to prey on; the nerves of the
public. The number of dogs in town
would probably astonish anyone who an
dert0Ok to count them and it is doubtful
if all these canine pay the tax. Num-
bers o. them are roaming the istreetS
after ten O'Clock at night although they
should by police regulation be shut up
after that hour and the noise they keep
is now a matter of general comment.
