Ashland is now in the grip of an epidemic of
dog jioisening. Whether it be malicious or acci­
dental is not known, but this fact, is known that
during the last few weeks at least seven dogs have
paid the penalty for eating that which some one
has either carlessly or purposely scattered around.
, Now there may be times when a* dog will wear
out its welcome, when through its ignorance of con­
vention will conubit crimes that would for the mo­
ment seem to justify the direst punishment pos­
sible #to bestow upon his poor and unsuspecting self.
1 here are better ways, when such, time comes, to
correct this condition, than to slyly, like a thief in
the night,-set out a little fish or meat, well satur­
ated witli poison. There are the duly constituted
authorities, who are willing and anxious to correct
such a condition. Then there is the owner of the
dog, that may be appealed to.
Either remedy
should work and if one or the other should fail, we
can think of nothing that a dog could do, unless
of course he hit a defenseless child or attacked a
non trespasaor, that Would justify such an overt
act, as dilihertly placing a bit of poison out and
then gleefully setting back and watching for the
lirst dog that came along to grab it.
W’ q wouldn’t want to go on a hunting or canape
ing trip with a person who would resort to such
tactics. We would be a little bit afraid that when
our back was turned they might take a pot shot at
us, just te~ aee ua suffer if -their aim was good.
We believe that if it were possible to secure an
X-ray photograph of the heart of any person guilty
of maliciously poisening an unoffending dog, the
photograph would just show one black splotch, for
we have been told by X-ray men, that stone or
metal always takes that appearance in a photo-

the most substantial men in the community. They
have demonstrated by their action in assessing
themselves five dollars apiece and agreeing to
donate one days time, that they are willing to do
as much or more than will be asked of other individ­
uals. We believe when such -an organization, as
the Litliians, express the whole hearted desire to
accomplish soitaething for which the majority of
the community will benefit, then any personal feel­
ings should be buried and we should get in and
cooperate with them, to the fullest extent
