The council at their meeting Mon day night proposed the "big push" against the dogs, large numbers of whom are roaming over the hills and dales of the city tagless and many ownerless. Members of the council protested that they had purchased tags for their dogs and City CWk Thomas even has a tag decorating the thoroughbred he possesses and , the council proposes that all who have the canine pets procure the tags or be ready to face the loss of the animals. i To make the warfare good it was j suggested that in addition to the flying squadron of police armed with rifles that the city import if nec essary dog catchers from Omaha and make the warfare one that all will j long remember as the year of the i big hunt. While the police have of ficiated at the passing out of a great many of the dogs in the past few weeks they will redouble the efforts and increase the mortality rate.
