To the Editor Of the ENTERPRISE.
This is the strangest town in America.
An infant of four years as city, it is
old in sin and sorrow. or its former
population of $4,000, at least 10, 600 have
fioated off to other bonanza fields, and
there are thousands waiting, like Mi
cawber, for something TO turn up.
There are disappointed hopes and
stranded expectations enough In this
city to answer for the entire country.
Gambling houses with all their seductive
appliances are open in great numbers
on either side of the principal avenue,
day and night, seven days in the week.
Rum, riot and gin have swept to perdi-
ton many coming here with aspirations
\ for wealth. A better day Is coming
even for this sodom. A. few months
since a proposition to enact an ordi-
nance closing all business places on the
Sabbath was defeated by vote of the
city council. This action called the at
tention of the better class of citizens to
I the matter and now all respectable bus
iiness places are closed on the Sabbath.
The school houses, churches aud Y. III.
C. A. are already making their Influence
felt through the entire community. The
gush and boom of the early excitement
has given place to settled business
! like purpose in the mining interests.
