Think of that. There nro now beforo the
i Council, bills for hauling that number of
dead hog to their long homo on tho out- i
sldooftho loveos. Andtthcsu aro tho de

there, can bu no doubt that this number of

Hu has moro troublo gottlng hi pay than
tho scrip ho receives is worth. The fact
is, tho dead hog question is more perplox
Int; than tho Chlsfof Pnllco question;
but wo hnvo no doubt tho now Council
can solvo it, since tliore Is in tho question
no politics. Wo would suggest that IHo
hauling system bo nbandonoJ, nnd tho
burying system bo ndoptod. When n
gentleman wo nro too modest to namo was
Mayor, until thu Council whiclt behoved
Itself au ait on tho doad hog question,
took It In hnnd and out of his hands, ho
had all hogs found dead In thu unon

T,1 "Plan' worked excellently well. The
iuuuu iiu iun wnn it, nnu incro
woro no heavy bills for dead hog hauling.
In this way nil tho dead hogs of the city woro
disposed of with neatness, cheapness and
dispntch. We submit tho "plan" with all
due doforenco to the council. Wo know
tho difficulties which surround tho ques
tion, and nro nwnro of tho fact that hasty
action on it may ruin Mr. 0 rant's clnncci
of rc-olcction ; but such as it Is wc throw
It out. If It should bo rejected, wo shall
not complain, but remain as llent as a
dead hog.
