the laws and compel the appointed guardians there
Of TO perform their duty to the public. Perhaps
the people Of the city Of Baltimore realize that it's
prosperity and continued growth identified with
the preservation or law and order within her walls
and that good name is too valuable TO be thrown
away, The following paragraph from the Patriot in
icates disposition the part of the chief marshal
