The city er Salem has so provided, and the ueta od Is necessarily exclusive, else tae power so conferred Is useless. "While it is no concern-of islas as a city official. I will add that wtr I a sheriff or constable, before kin lag any dog nnder the provisions of sections 7 and S of said chapter IIS. I would obtain, the opinion of the at torney general as to the validity of these provisions, as it is probably a deprivation of one's property without due process of law.
