A citizen of thu town was lined last week for allowing his horses to run at large in contraven- tion of the b)Uw dealinj} with such matters. A byUw dealinn with 8tock running at large ha.s been in existence for .-tome lime, but dithculty was found 'in the luhtler of impounding the animain and all of lu.-t year it. w«s practically a dead letter. The first, thinii ihe new council did this year was to y:u*» a new bylaw making it po^ssible to tine without impounding, and Constable H.»lej has al- ready begun putting it in force The Councillo;.'- have no desire to see citizens lined, but they are determined lo carry out the de.-iires of the msjority of the ratepiyers in ihi,s in-itler and think the people sliuu'd respect the law without refor: to harsh i.ieasurcs.
