BEGIN THE NEW YEAR RIGHT
The City Council is Going After the
Vi0latorS of Law.

AT the first session of the city cOun-
ell for the year 1905, held Monday eve
ming u much needed resolution was
passed and which, if properly enforced, 4,
will meet with the approval of every
lady in Brookings.
The REGISTER dislikes to make pub
lie the fact that there are few young
men in this city who are so ill-bred
that they habitually congregate on the
street corners and use profane and vul-
gar language when ladies are passing.
This habit the council is bound to
make unpopular and young men or
others are warned that they may find
themselves under arrest at any moment
if they continue the practice.
The property owners about the BUSH
ness portion will be pleased to know
that detectives are to be employed to
ferret out those who are in the habit OF
destroying property. The council Of
fers reward of $40 for the arrest and
conviction of any person committing
such offense.
The penalty tor committing either of
the above named offenses is pretty Sc
we're and it is hoped the same will be
checked without further trouble. The
council is in earnest and the REGISTER
commends their new resolution.

m.
