Again Mr.. Ellicott complied, though
with considerable surprise, and again the
chief followed him closely Scarcely had

ice why the gamblers. or rather the pro-
prjetor of a gambling institution. was and
is permitted 10 carry on his nefarious oc-
cuDation in the face Of the law, which IS
so plain in It's expression that it needs no

officials walk by (and for aught we know
into these reserts.'
A question arises in our minds can such
PAGES exist without the knowledge of the
authorities; that they do exist is beyond
doubt. and knowing their existence, are
they not violating their obligations, and
are they not amenabe to the law for
malfeasance Of office by not bringing these
malfactors before the courts, awarding
them the justice due them.
1t strikes US with considerable force that
when the law is violated by individuals
and they are placed under bond await
ing the action of the courts, they are not
permitted to work their games over and
over again, awaiting such decision Of the
law. This is simply what the keepers Of
these gambling institutions are doing.
Now, who is to blame for such actions
The municipal authorities are the guard
ans of the city. They are in a measure
responsible for It's moral conduct. The
law is made for the protection Of the citi-
zens. If it is not put into effect the re-
sponsibility rests upon those who are
placed in position to guard the welfare
of our commonwealth.
These questions are plain. There is
nothing ambiguous about them. Let
some one say who shall bear the burden
of such wilful neglect as is apparent on
the face of what has already been said on
the above subject
Is It the fault of the Mayor and Council
police authorities or county officials?
Some one is TO blame, Who? Citizen
