For some time past these human viners have boon poisioning dogs in this city and while au oi tiicm may not have been of much value to the master or tho ecn- cral public, at any rate thoy arc tho property of our citizens and their propei ty rights should bo respected.

Inflicting torture on a dumb brute is one thing that should not bo tolerated in anv civilized community. The latest victim of these diseased brains (if they have any) was a beautiful white dog owned by J. II. Bailey, one that was never known to molest any one, ever obedient to his master's wishes, the pet and companion of the enbire family.
