The hold the professional gamblers
have upon our hard working mechanics
and railr0adels L. indeed wonderful.
They come here month after month and
scoop In the hard earned wages which
should 20 to the sustenRT CO of these
wOrkingmen's families. A merchant a
few days since was heard to .sy: Rail
readers who formerly were some of my
best customers are now 70 good, Month
after month their wages are gambled
away, and the merchant and their fam
lilies sustain the loss" These gambling
dens are we'll known, and our police are
not doing their duty to allow them to
continue undisturted.
Probably never in the history of Mt
Union College has there anything oc-
CURED there that has gaiLe ed greater
publicity and caused more comment
than the hazBg of young student
namet F. NJ. Marshal from Wilmor, this
county The students implicated, which
are in number q out thirty eight, are
very much xcited over recent develop
menis On Friday the father of the boy,
together with Hon. L. G. Cole, of Mas
sillon, his attorney, vera at the Mount
investigating the case. Young Marshal
says: I'VE will do nothing until we
first see what the action of the faculty
will be, and if that is not satisfactory
civil proceedings will at once be com
menced. | can swear positively as to
the presence Of seven of the students
while | have very good idea Of who the
rest are. This seven includes some of
the seniors" Mr.. Marshal Is reputed to
ba quite wealthy and will spare neither
time nor money In bringing the perpe-
traitors Of the horrible outrage to justice.
A son of Dr. 0. N. HartshOrn, who will
graduate in about two weeks, is said to
have been member of the party. Re-
port has 1t that on this account the
faculty 10 l0ath TO act. The action of
the faculty Is closely watched by the
eye of a critical public. Let them be
0u.spoken, give the affair thorough
Investigation and let the blame fall
where it will. The college Is on the
eve Of great prosperity and to be thus
marred by the action of few fO0l-hardy
students is indeed to be regretted.
