In the same class stands the vener- able senator Sawyer. :1 Vermonter from Wimnsin. and Senator Pettiâ€" grew, another Veruionter, of South Dakota. and so on.

Sew- m Some people think that thel collection of the dog license of the 'keeper, as well as iron) thei owner is a Bit unjust; But they forget that the iaw regards dogmas they are, a public nuisance, a pest to be abated, a danger to be guarded against in many instances. Suppose 'the owner only was liable. Mr. Jones of this city could sell his pet dog to afriend in Chicago, but keep the dog here all the same. We can col lect no license of some uhknown man i in Chicago, but the dog or dogs are at large here, as much (if a nuisance aszany other dogs and yet they pay no license. That 18 mahifestly un ijust to the city which has all the iannoyan‘ces and risk of 1the dogs be- ling kept here and yet no protection. {It Is an injustice to every other own- er of dogs In this city who pays li- cense on his dogs. I 4‘ No; there 15 no injustice or wrong about It and so the supreme court has decided that the person who keeps or permits dogs to be about his premises or place of business is liable for the license. Hence, every l f“dishonest fellow 1n town can’t go into court and swear he does not own the dogs and so escape the li. (sense. We think the {judges of the supreme court know about as much of la. ”some of our corner loafers who never looked into the statutes, iand they are as capable of forming {a correct judgment as some of us 1 whose knowledge of the law will never prove fatal to ourselves.
