Why remain in the North and

by an investigation made by the Rev.

The chief evils complained against were
conduct of many of, the dancers and the
presence of = young girls. The meas

dances at which beer and liquor are sold
in immense quantities are held in this
city, particularly On, Saturday nights.

lasting until well into Sunday morning.
That the police can greatly restrict the
public dance evil under the ordinances
is well known, but measure similar to
the one proposed for st. Paul, might
serve to define their duties more clearly.

dances it is unlawful to sell liquors in
