Interesting Statements About
Hydrophobia
In a series of articles In the Farm and
Fireside, a Northern farm paper, per
taining to the damage done to the sheep
industry of the country by worthless
dogs, Herbert Quick urgently argues for
the muzzling of all dogs, not altogether
because of the killing of sheep and
lambs, but because of the spread of hy
drophobia. In backing up his conten
tion lie gives some very interesting fig
ures as to the number of cases of hydro
phobia in Great Britain before and after
the passae of the law making the muz
zling of dogs compulsory. Accepting
these statistics as correct—and they
seem to be authoritative—there seems to
be vgry convincing argument for the
enactment of legislation on the subject.
Mr. Quick says:
The strict muzzling of all dogs In ell
seasons of the yeai—for dogs run mad
as ofen In winter as summer—has been
shown to be an absolute preventive of
rabies. It has been worked out per
fectly In Great Britain since 1887. In
that year and the two following, deaths
Some Benefits of Commission Government
1. It puts the city on a cash basis
and lowers taxes. It forbids either
debts or deficits.
2. It eliminates the official red tape
and goes directly at the work of city
administration. It mends the holes in
the streets as soon as they appear. It
does the thing necessary to be done in
stead of passing ordinances about the
thing or referring it to a committee.
3. It always Is responsive to public
opinion. The initiative, referendum
and recall compels it to be so.
4. It submits all expenditures of
public funds aside from the regular
operating expenses to a popular vote
of the people.
the business, in a measure he does
but at the same time he consults or
advises with George on most all im
portant matters. A baking plant is a
very deceptive institution, the general
impression, no doubt prevails that
there is not much to it, here you are
mistaken, and if you don't think so
just go down to this place and take
a look, the responsibility and the
volume of business done is more than
tha done even in some big manufac
turing plants instead of thinking
about baking one loaf of bread, stop
to consider two or three nundred thou
sand in the same length or time, also
the thousands of cakes which of
course have to go through many pro
cesses of seasoning, in their bakery
department, they have some of the
most reliable and best bakers in the
country.
Augusta should be proud of this
worthy institution, it being conducted
on the very highest sanitary ■ plans,
thereby furnishing fresh, pure bread
at all times. Mr. H. H. Claussen is
still in his prime, he is actively en
gaged with his son in the conduct of
the business.
from hydrophobia were, respectively, 217
for 1887, 160 for 1888. and 312 for 1889.
In the latter a muzzling law was passed
and enforced. In 1890 the number of
deaths dropped to 129, and in -.he two
following years to 79 and 39. In 1892
the ordinance was repealed by the dog
worshipers. Deaths from the bites of
mad dogs rose by the following steps in
the years which succeeded: 93, then 248,
then 672. Horrified by this sacrifice
to unmuzzled dogs, the law was passed
and enforced again. In 1896 deaths drop
ped to 438, next to 17, to 9, to 6, to only
1 In all Great Britain; rose in 1902 to 13;
and since that time not a single death
has occurred In England, Scotland and
Wales from hydrophobia. The muz
zling of dogs saves hundreds of tragedies
every year. All dogs should be muz*
gled for reasons of common humanity.
From these official figures there would
seem to be little that could be said in
advocacy of the repeal of the law in
that country, or against the enactment
of such a measure anywhere else.
5. It keeps the city government at
work ail the time. The commissioners
must devote all their time to the public
business.
6. It conducts the public business on
the merit system. It pays officials to
work for the city and not for a political
party.
7. It puts the men elected to office
out in the open where everybody can
see what they are doing. The city hail
is no longer a place of mystery to the
taxpayers.
8. It lowers taxes. In every city
where it has been adopted it has given
better public service for less money
than the old ward system.
