Show The low Nuisance. Salt Lake, April 11, 79. Editors Herald .- At almost any lime one can couur from three to ten cows pasturing in the btreet on which I reside. It is almost impossible to raise an ornamental orna-mental or shade tree on the sidewalk or near the fence, inside or out. Will you not acain cull the Atteiitirn of the City Council t0 tbie nuisance? It would be but a small matter if -mounted policeman were s is' through ihs streets once a day tor a ft diyB and impound all stock running at large, contrary to law. A few examples exam-ples would Boon bring a remedy. Respectfuily yours, An Irate Citizen. Our friend "Irate Citizen," is right; nor are the evils complained of by him, the only ones to be considered. A number of persons, especially children, have been hooked and thrown in the air by these proverbially domestic animals, though tortunately nothing seriouB has resulted. It would seem that these occurrences would be a sufficient reason for the enforcement en-forcement of the ordinance relative to animals running at large. The nuisance is no trivial one, as every person who has any regard for neatness or a desire to beautify his immediate premises is liable to have his efforts thwarted because some citizen citi-zen has not Buch a commendable spirit. If the ordinance is to remain it should be enforced, and, aa our correspondent cor-respondent says, the impounding of a few animals would hava the eflect of refreshing the minds of some citizens that there are other purposes for the streets than turning them into herd grounds. The complaint is one ol long standing and should al once be remedied. |
