Grant's Pass Cour ier: "The cow question came up at the last meeting of the city council and it was suggested that Marshal Keenan drive up all the bovlnes found at large during the night and let ths owners have them next morning with out pound charges, by way of warn ing. Mr. Keenan said he would have to obtain the assistance of a force of bucaroos, and this was not vouchsafed him. There waa some objection to shutting up the cows, aa oue couucU man suggested that numbers of poor people make their living oil' tbem and that it would bean injustice to shut them up the moment dark came, as the cow is of a convival nature aud fond of stopping to talk to a neighbor ing cow on her way home, and that It would be wrong to worry her owner by fear of Incarceration within the gloomy portals of the city pound. This was conclusive and the town cow, with her sisters, brothers, cousins and aunts, has now the liberty of all streeU ana railroad tracks within the corporate limits ot the city of Grant's Pass." Those are the same silly argu ments used In Eugene yearssgn, but they didn't work. You couldn't hire our people to return to cow days. English Hop Rei'obt.
