Christmas Brings an Argument for q
Workhouse.
In Moline they celebrate Christmas
in earnest. Thirty-four cases in "a
hours is the record of the police court
resulting from the observation of the
holiday. Four officers had a fir e
fight with a patrol wagon load of
buns on their way to the station in
the morning. but no one sustained
serious injury.
As a result of . some unusually
heavy penalties imposed. two patrol
wagon loads, aggregating 10 prison

placed in the county Jail. This
brought the number Of prisoners
boarding at the countys expense up

taking action, it would appear that
there need be no further delay.
