ROWDlISIM
On Wednesday night three young
men Of es. ,ectable families and residents
of Worthi,ietor, disgraccd thensel-
YES by carrying 4 skunk about the
streets. They first laid it on the porch
of the Worthington Hotel, but the de-
cided demonstrations of some of the
men about the house induced them to
remove the animal, when they tied it
up to the door Of the ADVANCE Office.
The affair created quite a ''snlell'' in
more ways than one, and inquiry soon
revealed the. names of the parties. AS
their names are already known over the
whole town, and the affair has been dis
cussed in every house, we refrain from
publishing their names.
A few weeks ago when we published
Several communications upon the SUBJ
ject of E'rowdyism,' - we were gravely
told by Christian men that there was no
''rowdyism" in town. AL the rowdy
element felt that public sentiment was
against us us, and that the ADVANCE
would not he sustained in it's efforts to
denounce disorder and rowdyism. The
natural result was an increase of both.

Complaints have come to us almost
daily of sc%nlalous conduct about the
railroad depot and on the streets.
II is high time that law-abiding citi-
Zens began to frown down these begin
nigs Of crime in our midst. It is high
time to apply law and let the insolent
rowdy element know that crime must
be nipped in the bud.
The offence which gives occasion for
this article is not in itself henious
one but it is one of series, and this
series will so Oh increasing unless re-
spectacle people promptly set their feet
down and say that henceforth law must
lie applied and disgrace must attend
lawlessness.
Some of these young men have pre-
sumed too far and they are finally ex-
posed. So far as we have heard there
is universal denunciation of the offence.
