Pen dleton has it badly, and Colfax, ac cording to report, has been through the diBasreeable experience. ' Drastic measures have been adopted at Pen dleton. ', 'j . "v- ;. ' . ' Dogs are not the only animals fal ling prey to the poisoner here. Cats in' many numbers have gone through the painful death. One instance,, of toils was when Joe Whitby's vaulable dog was poisoned and . two cats; at the same time died from a like cause. As has been true in other Northwest cities, the dogs all find the poisoned meat In their, own yards, indicating that some : fiend - is . spreading the dope'! purposely. The Pendleton E. O vi of thft Pfrndleton polsoninx: Incensed at , the wholesale- poison ing of dogs by Bome unprincipled "Ku-, man being, dogowners of North Pen dleton held a meeting last evening hand suscribed a fund of 1250 which will be offered as a remard for evi dence which will lead to the arrest and conviction of the ; person guilty of the outrage. It was also decided that a detective be brought from Port land to work on the case. As a result of the activity of the North Pendleton dog poisoner there are only five or six dogs remaining on that side of the river and all but (rre or two of these have been poi--soned at some time or another and have been saved by prompt action by ventrinarians. As nearly every dog poisoned has been stricken . in his home, yard the belief is growing that the pojson has been thrown to them while .they were at home. t It is said that the guilty person is one or twQ Individuals and. the own ers are making every effort to deter nine which of these two is guilty and they will endeavo to send him to to the penitentiary. : - ''' As the present law makes dogs per Bonn! property, their " destructions is A penitentiary offense. Some of those killed have been valuable bird dogs find as about 25 have been poisoned within .the past 'few months their com b'ned value .will .probably be sufflcl eiil to, send the guilty person to the l.(nJtentiary;for. several years.
