Some Facts.

Ed. Camera:-For the past twp or
three weeks. the city has teemed with
charges of the misdoings of the present
city administration; they have been
thundered from the puIpits by imported
professional reformers, distributed IN
handbills and industriously peddled
from house to house and on the street
corners wherever a listener could be
found. 1t would be well now for the
voter to stop and inquire how much truth
there is in all this. There are violations
of the liquor law in Boulder, there is
gambling, there is prostitution, there is
thievlng, there are other evils, but 1t will
compare favorably with any city OF its
size in the United States, licensed or un-
licensed, in any or all of these respects.
Has not the council acted Conscientious
ly and for the best interests Of the city
and each member spent days and weeks
of time to the detrlment of his own busi-
ness? Their thanks are abuse and vllitl-
cation. Has any officer embezzled or
misappropriated single dollar? Why
then this general condemnation? o, but
the mayor and police have not enfort ed
the laws. There is one officer on duty
in the day time and two at night; how
can they see all that happens? and If
those who do see will not file charge
or even inform an officer, only on condi-
ton that their names shall not be men
toned, how are violators of the law all to
be punished? In all the general charges
only two or three specific instances have
been mentioned, and instead of reporting
them to the authorities the REPUTABLE
citizen who saw them carefully preserved
the facts for campaign purposes.
1t would probably surprise some OF
these reformers who charge that no ef-
tort is made to enforce the laws, to be
told that in the past two years twenty or
more gambling rooms have been closed
and numerous tin horn gamblers run out
of town, but such is the fact. The same
is true OF prostitutes and other tough
characters, and right here it might be
remarked that some of the most active
reformers have caused the most trouble
by renting their property to such charac-
ters. The officers are not allwise, omnl-
present or omnipotent; they have the
failings of ordinary human beings; they
have not made the city paradise nor
Utopia, but it is not true they have made
no effort; it is not true that minor can
90 into any saloon in the city and get all
the liquor he wants; it is not true that
gamb ing is wide open or that it is per-
mitted to run in favored places with the
connivance Of the officers, and good
many other things are not true that are
so industrlously peddled. The officers
have not gone about their duties with a
brass band; they have not prosecuted
every trivial case; brought humiliation
upon respectable families; added to their
own fees and piled up mountain of
costs for the city to pay, but they have
discharged their duties in such way that
Boulder is as nearly free from lawless-
ness and crime as any city in the land
and It would not be improved in any re-.
spect by the election of the League ticket.
