The man who knows how THE CUR CANINE ABOMINATION It in estimated that Grand Rapids has a_ greater canine population than any other town of its size in the state. Whether this statement is true or not the Herald-Review is not prepared to say, asitis not long on dog statistics, but true it is that there are more of the mangy mong- rels about town than is necessary for the public safety. It is no uncom- won thing for pedestrians to be met on the sidewalk and attacked by one or moreof these creatures. Up to date none of them have put into execution their vicious threats, but it is by no means a plesant expericnce to be chased and snapped at while one is passing along the walk. Sever- al gentleman who have thus been subjected tu these attacks are carry- ing revolvers for the express pur- shows his teeth in a menacing manner. The viliage council might take up this subject and by wise legislation cause a deceded reduction in the village canine population. For Sale—House and lot and turni- ture. Cheap. J. H.
