For some time there has been a pool
room run in this place, against the pro.
tests of our best citizens. 1t is very
unsightly place, and run on limited
scale, but it is saii to have had grow
ing patronage from among the young
men of the village and vicinity. During
the past week row or two has occurred
there, in wi ich young men belonging to
some of our best families have been i'm.
plicated, and on Saturday night some
one mashed in the windows OF the place
and otherwise slightly injured the prop.
erty. We want to emphasize our pro.
test against the pool room and all that
transpires within it, and think the man
that runs it ought to be ashamed of him.
self and quit the business. 1t he has no
regard for himself he ought to quit it
for the sake of his own boys and his
Christian parents. But, at the same
time, we think that moral suasion and
other lawful means should be used in
our efforts to break up dens OF iniquity,
and in no case should resort be had to
the malicious destruction of property.
