We learn from the city attorney
that the officers are having a very
unpleasant time enforcing the
stock law. So far the marshal
has not charged a cent of costs,

lected except the $1 fine which
goes to the oity. Yet many of
the parties owning the stock are
abusing these officers like they
were roobers. Now this is sll
wrong. The officers are as lenient
as possible because the law has
not been enforced heretofore. But
