of this same Georgia spirit Satur
day, although exemplified in another
way. They are fully cognisant of
the great compliment and high honor
Mr Taft is bestowing upon them in
choosing their institution above
others who invited him and their en
thusiasm is raised to an extraordi

CITY'S ANNUAL WAR
ON DOGS COMING ON
Attention is called to the fact that
dog taxes are now due. In If. days,
about 110 licenses have been sold at
city headquarters. Augusta's canine
population is estimated at 1.000 dogs
of good standing, while the nuuihir
of unlicensed brutes is far greater
than that estimate.
The annual dog tax is $1 per brute.
The tax is not levied for the revenue
it affords the city, but for the pur
pose of thinning out undesirable pop
ulation as much as possible. Within
a few- weoks Inspector Pat Britton
will begin his annual campaign of col
lection and extermination.
