There was rather an unusual
scene occurred in this city not
many evenings ago it is said at a
short session of the moral reform
leaders in one Of the churches,
and very hot and pointed personal
thrusts were engaged in for
time. One enthusiastic surface
worker argued that as election is
now over" something should be
done { chec's tn, cline and Id (.
bar chery stalking through the
city, and severity denounced the
public officials for closing their
eyes and not bringing the guilty
ones to justice. After his TRADE
had ended a wounded officer whose
heart had been pierced by the
fiery dart, dared to stand up it is
said and read q portion of the
accuser's private record outside of
the church and the reform work
and also informed him that if he
knew of such crimes existing it
was his duty to file information
against the lawbreakers, and they
would be punished according to
their misdeeds. These "I-can't-
afford to-injure-my business-to.
punish crime" fellows who do all
the blowing and expect others to
do the dirty work would do we'll
to keep still. But, Bro. Reformers,
it would be better ssto dwell to-
gether in unison and peace" if you
expect the Inside world to profit
by your surface pretensions, which
only means q wider field for bust
ness.-Page County Democrat.
