FINEST STOCK IN THE CITY,
anil we are known throughout this
section as the
Wliat Americus needs now, and for
that matter has long needed, Is a society
for the prevention of cruelty to ani
mals.
There is, perhaps, not a reader of
The Times-Rbcobdbu in this city who
has not at soma time seen the greatest
of cruelty inflicted upon dumb brutes,
whereas, had there been a society here
for the protection of these poor animals,
the mere fact of Its existence would
have deterred the human brute from
wantonly inflicting torture upon the
helpless creature which ho was mal
treating.
In fact, hardly a day passes but that
there is some flagrant violation of the
lawB of humanity perpetrated right here
in Americus, and for which there is no
redress. Not long since, on Forsyth
street, a burly negro belabored a poor
mule over the head with a club until
the animal fell to the ground, where for
luite a long while it lay helpless and un
able to rise. The black brute merely
laughed at ids diabolical deed, and when
the poor animal Anally staggered to Its
feet the lash was again applied os the
human devil drove off home.
Scores of crimes equal to the above
could be cited, many of which are per
petrated right here every day, and
which would disgust even a Zulu war
rior. Were there a society here whoso
business it would be to punish these
miscreants, untold suffering would be
spared numbers of poor horses, mules
and other animals, while the chalngang
would be graced by many who havo es
caped too long.
In Savannah tlio society for the pre
vention of cruelty to animals proposes
to wago war this summer on the check
rein, and the samo ought to bo dono
here,if tjiore was such a society to look
after the matter.
The members claim that it is the
height of cruelty to have a horse tightly
checked at any timo, but more particu
larly during the warm season.
Many people have a habit of letting
horses stand in front of stores for a half
hour and longer at a timo with their
heads checked, and this, the society
says, will have to be stopped. If these
parties havo not humanity enough to
loosen their horses by persuasion a little
law will bo tried. It is possible that
the society may ask the city council to
frame an ordinance on the check rein
question.
