STRICT ORDINANCE IS NOW LAW
WITH MOST RIGID
PROVISIONS
COLLARS, MUZZLES, TOCS DEMANDED
Only "Free Territory" Left for Ca

Gladstone's city council Thursday
nkht passed finally tha strict ordin
ance providing for the licensing, muz-1
zllng and restraining of dogs within
the city limits, and tne measure wa
signed by tha acting mayor, becoming
a law at once. The statute provides
that every dog must wear a collar to
which must be attached a brass 11
cense tag, that during the summer
months the animal must be muzzled
in such a way as to conform with the
requirements of the Oregon Humane
SocLty's rules; and also provides
penalties for failure to observs its
tui-oi s sections, and a penalty for in
terfering with any municipal officer
who is taking a dog to the pound.
One peculiar provision of the law
provides that any dog that Is killed In
tha city pound, or made away -with by
order or the city olticiais, must De
taken outside the limits of the city
and burled. No departed canines are
to be Interred within tha city.
By the passage of this ordinance.
Gladstone gets in line with Oregon
City, Portland and other leading com
munities, and provides steps wuicn
should go a long way towards pre
venting the Bpread of any future epi-
demlca of rabies. The Gladstone law
Is the most strict of any in the state.

have to be mighty careful of their
conduct If they do not violate some of
Its provisions.
About the only spot left w here dogs

provisions of Its own In regard to ca

the district effected by the general or

place, either beaausa of this, or
through a coincidence, has been the
scene of a numbar of attacks on peo
ple by unrestrained canines.
County Veterinarian Kddy, who has
been keeping careful watch on dogs
and stock that have recently been
suspected of hydrophobia Infection
says that none of the animals now un

the disease, and he hopes that it Is
stamped out. Dogs that were known
to have been suffering from Infection
were killed. The big bulldog that

IN "DRINK WATER"
Gladstone folk who have been keep
ing cool during the past warm weath
er by bathing in the drink this Is not
slang, for they have been swimming
In the Clackamas river just off the in
take of the Gladstone water works .
will have to cut It out. Gladstone's
council passed an order to this effect
this week, and instructed members of
the police force to see to It that there
was no further swimmlngin the drink. -
Gladstone's water Is drawn out of
the rivr through a 25-foot gravel fil
ter, and then pumped under pressure
Into the mains. It is said to be pure,
but the proximity of bathers and wa
ter works has been regarded as Just
a little too much of a good thing; ani
henceforth warm Gladstonlan. will
have to swim below the Intake, or else
far above it. As the best beach for
bathing purposes is right at the wa
terworks, this Is considerable of a
hardship upon the citizens.
Hereafter a policeman will patrol
the river bank during bating hours,
which ara from 9 a. m. to 7 p. m. on
warm days, and will shoo fair damo
seis, small boys and other folk awav
from the stuff that Gladstone imbibes.
GLADSTONE STREET
Street grading in Gladstone is be
ing rushed ahead just at this time, and
it is expected within a few weekB ths
entire program of improvement map
ped out for this summer will be com
pleted. Dirt taken from the grades in
the eastern part of the city Is being
used to raise the grade of Dartmouth
street on the west side, and to fill In
the low parts of Portland avenue, and
already the subgrades on these
thoroughfares have been nearly com
pleted. Surfacing will be added in the near
future, and the wholo mass rolled, af
ter which It is possible that the new
streets may be oiled, covered with a
light covering of sand and rolled
again. Whila it is late in the year for
road oiling, it Is believed that such a
finislmg on the newly graded high
ways will prepare them better for
service, and wi'.l add to their wearing
qualities.
Gladstona has its own road oiling
plant and equipment, and wph its
municipal gravel pit is in a position
to complete its street work in fancy
style at the minimum of cost.
