Is Buncombe county's dog law, which was printed in The Citizen on Jane 27, really a law, or is it not a law ? That is a question that is doubtless debatable, and likewise one that every owner of a dog, from the finest blooded animal to the mangiest cur. is deeply nterested in or should be, for it affects a man's pride, which is the dog afore said. The dog law, as it appears in the laws of 1893, provides that dogs shall be listed for taxation hist as are other do mestic animals; that owners must keep their dogs at borne unless they arc se curely muzzled, and that the owner who fails to comply with the provisions of the law shall be fined $1 for each offence and shall be compelled to pay all damages done by the dog while running at large. Farther than this, the bill provides that if a man is convicted of violating the dog law and does not pay bis fine he may be compelled to work it out on the roads of the county at 75 cents a day. 1 ne diii as printed was framed bv Hon. Mark L. Keed and Dr. Dur ham, and was adopted by the Buncombe county Farmers' alliance. It went to Gen. R. B. Vance, one of Bun combe's reptcsentatives in the last House, who introduced it in that branch of the Legislature. It passed that body lust as it was, and then went to the Senate. On February 28, according to the Senate journal, the bill was reported without preiudicc- from the committee on agriculture. At the evening session the same day the bill was placed on its second reading, when Senator John M. Campbell ol Ashcville moved to amend as follows : Provided, that the provisions of tl.is act shall not applv to any township of said county, unless and until a majority of the qua lined voters thereof have voted to have this same apply thereto, as hereinafter provided : 'Upon a iictition 111 wrttincr of one- third ot the ciualificd votersof an v town ship of said county, wrcscntcd to the joint board of the county commissioners ana usticcs of the peace 01 said county, at their annual meeting in any year, such joint board shall order an election to be held in such township at a time to be appointed by said joint board, not more than GO days nor less than 2Udavs after the meeting of such joint board, to determine whether or not said law shall apply to such township, at which elec tion in such township all electors favor ing the application of said law to such township shall vote a ticket on which are printed the words 'For the dog law,' and all electors ot the same opposing the application of said law to such town ship shall vote a ticket on which are printed the words 'Against the dog law,' and said election shall be held in the same manner and under the same pro visions relating to registration, so far as the same can apply, as are now provided for the election of members of the Gen eral Assembly." 1-romacopv of the Senate lournal shown The Citizen by Senator Campbell it is learned that this amendment was adopted, the bill passed second and third reading, and the amendment was ordered encrosscd and sent to the House for concurrence. The House journal, pace 866, contains this information : "11. B. 1124, S. It. 855. a bill to be entitled, 'an act to pro tect snecp in ttuncombe county Irom the ravages of dogs.' The amendments are concurred in and the bill is ordered en rolled." Here is evidence plain and indisputa ble that the amendment passed the Senate and was concurred in by the House and was ordered enrolled. Yet, not the sliehtest trace of the amendment appears in the book ol laws as recently published. 1 he amendment, it will be understood. made all the difference in the law; in fact, made it almost certain that the law would not go in force in Bttncomte, as it is believed that not a township in Buncombe would vote against the dog. Xnator Campbell says, as the only explanation he has of the omission of the amendment, that it was either an error ol the enrolling clerk or someone stole the amendment before it reached the clerk's hands. The Senator also says that a similar state of things was found rrcarding a bill which had been amend ed by J. Frank Ray, representative from rviacon. Whose is tnc fault f and what became of these amendments? VMOM MCDOWELL ANOTHER ENTRANCE. A Mewsy Inciter A Profouud itu presslon Hade. Marion, N. C, July 11. "Old Sol" blazed down with such a continued force for a few days last week that the heat run up into the nineties some say the hottest for years. But now it is pleas ant again. At no time do our cool nights fail us. The small grain which is nearly all harvested is very generally good, it seems, all ovfjr McDowell county. Other crop prospects, a re very promising for the season, except here and there some need of rain. It is to be hoped that the farmers will be blessed with a full cen- cral crop this year which would go some distance towards dissipating "hard times."

May he soon return to resume bis labors amongst us. there has been much and viuorous shaking of the tree of the United States internal revenue department lately, for the Democrats seem to be satisfied that there is good fruit up there. The ques tion is. into whose hands will Mr. Hlias drop a plum. We have several hopeful ones. We are clad to sec it stated that Mr. Hlias is going to appoint onlv sober. steady men to places, with the intention of elevating the work of the department accordingly. This is just as it should be, being in the line of his, and our ereac chieftain's, motto, "That a public office is a public trust." We see it stated in the last Free Lance that the man who was killed. Wtn. A. Garrison, on Broad River on Jane 12, the day of our county prohibition elec tion, was decidedly a wet ' man. borne 20 or 30 others were sti icken down by the same bolt of lightning, but it seems they have nearly all recovred. It has not been shown that a "dry" man was struck by lightning. A vast majority of men, judging from expressions given, be lieve that the Lord voted at Broad River box that day. The occurrence has made a profound impression upon our county. (jrapho. Old John M. Davidson Anionic Friends In Ashevllle. John M. Davidson and wife of Kings ton, Ga., are in the city visiting Mr. Davidson's brother, Col. A. T. Davidson. For along time Mr. Davidson has held the position of railroad agent at Kingston.

Mr. Davidson has not been to Ashcville for lo years and finds things greatly changed. He is around shaking hands with the old friends whom he knew in the years gone by, all of whom are rejoiced to see him again. TIIRF.W HIjrl OUT OF CHVRCH. The Cbanu;e at the Market House Begsa.

From this point persons entering this way will pass under the floor of the fire department. This passageway, how ever, will be well lighted from a couple of windows in the north wall of the building. It is claimed by the advocates 01 mis scheme tnat when the change is made there will be a demand for the stalls on the north side of the market. which have never been occupied. Alder man Westall. of the market house com mittee, is looking alter the change. which it will require several days to complete.

Denver, Colo., July 12. The Color ado silver convention yesterday was both big and sensational. The feature of the day was the speech of Populist Governor Waite. Among other things he said : "If the money power shall attempt to sustain its usurpation by the 'strong hand,' we will meet that issue when it is forced upon us, for it is infinitely better that blood should flow to the horses' bridles rather than that our national credit should be destroyed." He also said: "If it is true that the Uuitcd States is unable to carry out its governmental policy without dictation or consent ot Knglish powers; if we are a province of Kuropcan monarchies then we need another revolution, another appeal to arms. If war is forced upon us w? will send to Halifax a far greater army of 'British Tories,' according to our population, than our forefathers sent there after the Revolutionary war." J. Cook, J. led the opposition. He said : "We are liable to do things we may re gret. I appeal to you as men not to do today what you will regret tomorrow. We are excited; we should know what we are doing. Let us be reasonable and act as intelligent men. We are going bast as men to educate the men in the Kast. If we fail, then is the time to act." The Denver clearing house sent a check for $1,000 to pay the expenses of dele gates to St. Louis. Chicago and Wash ington, accompanied by the iollowing communication, signed by every banker and smelter in the city: "We favor the use of silver as monev. and that it be freely coined with gold at the present ratio of sixteen to one, with out discrimination in favor ot or against cither metal." THE TARIFF. Very Properly It Is Not to be For teotten. Washington, July 12. Representa tive W. L. Wilson, of West Virginia, arrived in this city this morning. (Ques tioned as to the probable outcome of an extra session, Wilson said : "It has always been my belief that the extra session will be continuous and that no recess can be taken. Un der any circumstances, however, the tariff question will be considered. As soon as the committee on ways and means is announced, the tariff will be taken up by them." CHEESE POIBONINU.
