| But the root of all the evil is in the
shameful condition that exists in the
lefty with respect to the maladminis-
tration OF the laws against gambling
and disorderly houses. These things
have had full swing now for SO long
that they have become not only bold
but commanding in their influence.
| That these elements in fact control
the government of this city is motor
ious. And far from getting better. the
situation is getting worse with every
month the present regime is allowed
to continue in power.
The rottenness. deep. vile. vital. that
exists in that portion of the city south
of the Southern Pacific tracks and be-
tween Santa Fe and Stanton is impos-
sible to describe so that it will he at
the same time fit for publication and

aid has not said much about these
things OF late. because not much good
is done by continually stirring up the
noisome pestilential scum that reeks
and testers on the surface of the pond.
But fathers and mothers must know.
and business men must know. that the
unrestricted gambling and all its at

brazenly in this city. under the protec-
ton of Mayor Magoffin and the men he
has appointed or his fellow ringsters

Imaginary Plague.

A good many people in town think
they have sore places on the femoral
gland or right under the armpits. A
doctor says they probably have and
that it is no wonder. These people
press the suspected places several
times a day in search of indications
and in that way bruise the flesh and
muscles. Then they feel unmistakable
twinges and imagine they have the
plague. In a tramway car the other
day every man aboard was observed
to press his finger tips hard against
the locality of his femoral gland and
some of them after doing so looked
scared.

which is u part of the best part Of this
western town.
Mrs. Kirk has developed into a wo-
man of rare power in all the church

the women here recognized her ability
as leader by making her president OF
the Christian Temperance union. IL
was largely through her efforts that
the township polled a very heavy vote
for the amendment. She has thrown
all her rare talents as gifted musician
also into the redemption OF the town,
with the result that nc woman has
such an influence as she has on all the
young. thoughtless life that has crowd
ed in here during the towns rapid
growth in the years Of eighty-six and
seven.
There are three children, two boys,
named Gilbert and Hermon. and
girl. the oldest child. named Faith. The
boys are bright. handsome fellows and
take after the mother. Gilbert Is II

would make her father and mother
anxious for her future if 1t were not
for the fact that they and herself are
Christian in their whole nature. That
is the salvation Of such girl as Faith,
and Mr.. and Mrs. Kirk seem to be
peacefully sure of the fact. All Of the
children are members of the church,
and all three Of them are very evident

has done.
"You ask, What has Malcolm Kirk
done?
"In the first place, in spite Of what
seemed like impossibilities. he succeed

There was silence a moment while
