The Cow Queitlon. Mu. EtllTOH: Jf you r correspondents arc all really too poor to keep cows except at the expense of other people, why do they < ot go to the city authorities ami frankly and ma- ly ask for relief, and not try to get it in ways which interfere with the comforts and rights of their neighbors. For, Mr. Editor “there are others;” Other taxpayers in town who are too )>oor to own a cow honestly, but who have rights with which loose rattle on the streets inter- fere. One would think too, from the tone of their letters, that there is no free pasturage to Is* had except along the city streets: whereas the truill is the cattle will find much belter grass and much more along the country roads. Let them drive these cows for a few days along the roads away from the city instead of toward it, and as soon as the poor emaciated brutes have ac quired the habit they will begin to tnke on llesh and give some thing better than blue milk. The pasturage in town is not good; and the jioor half-starved cattle are forced to eat putrid garbage around the alloy closets, and pa per boxes along the store fronts. But if the town pasturage were of the best—if it were good luscious grass—the man who is rich enough to own a cow has NO BIGHT to utilize that pastor- aim when so doing infringes on the rights of his neighbors. Now let us hear no more whinipg about the ‘ -rights of the poor man”—we are all—or many of us— poor, even if we do live in town and do not own cows, but have little flower lasts and poor attempts at lawns, which the cows destroy. We have wives and children w ho are liable to injury if cattle are allowed to roam the streets. Wo try to keep clean !x)th in our persons and in our property, which we cannot j UlHt na ' but ruU)er of OL -„ do with coas dropping their ex- , .. uule n „ WL . r bo ,i s lind po , jri „. crements on our sidewalks and I Bl hear before our door steps. „ . ■ ■ „ . ... * no mere whining ubnut the tour correspondent who as-I ,, , „ „ „ , 1 „ rights of the poor man. the utnes the name of ‘Taxpayer i .. ,- „ ... poor farmer wno lives near tv it j • cross and who earns every dollar he makes by the sweat ot his hies — take up Ins cows when they come to town and fleece him of his hurd-cumed coin— seems to ho the sentiment oi “Another Taxpayer.” And then talk about “seifisli- ness and a disregard for the rights and comforts of uiher?.” Ridiculous. Taxpayer. Cow Uw i Failure. Mr. Editor:—It seems that my article in regard to the injustice and hardship being imposed upon the people of Waycross and the nearby farmers by the eofoice- luent of the present cow law, has got. “Another Taxpayer's ' brie ties up, aud he starts oil' with the assertion that the poor people who own cows should be compel led to sell them, and if they can't get along without their cows let them go to begging for a living, and in the sums breath seems to De so careful for the “comforts and rights of his neighbors.” ‘‘Consistency, thou art a jewel.” If he is so charitably inclined, why is he howling about the lit tle iuconvenieuce the cows give "the others,” as he chooses to call them, when he sees his neigh bor's stock betug slashed and cut up with whips while being driven to the pound, and in many in* stances kuocked oft' at half price to the highest bidder. “Another Taxpayer” expatiates on tbe poor and on tbe eufringemont on the right of others, and ignores the fact that there are as many cows in town evory day—or nearly as many—as there were before tbe cow law weut into ef fect, and they are not town cows either, for the people in town keep their cows shut up, but they come from the country, aud they will continue to come as long as the luscious Bermuda grass grows in such abundance all over the town. "Another Taxpuyer" is a little otf in his statement about the people driv ing their cows to tod n, because wo fail to see whore the fuu would come in to the mau who would drive his cows into town to have them impounded. Indeed, it gratoson the retiuod sensibilities of this magnanimous (?) gentleman to think ot the poor, but The B iok says “the poor ye have with you always.” Bui then, do not let us t.lk of suines tin- name of ‘Taxpayer (is if he were the only taxpayer in the community;) >is mistak-m in saying that in Brunswick cat tle are allowed to run in the day time. I have passed many days and at t mes weeks in Brunswick, at various times of the year and have been through and through the city in all di rections and at all hours, aud have never seen a loose cow within the cite limits Such pleading as lie and your other j ... . correspondents have indulged in ' betrays asolflsli disregard of the I txccuhvc Coinmllicr Mcctlsg rights mid comfort of any one j A meeting of the Democratic but themselves.
