Special Agent Conser is still
at Cheyenne Agency carrying on
his Investigation of alleged offioiul
crookedncss. The Press has not
attempted to follow up the charges
of misconduct because it believes
such II course to be u spopies of
yellow journalism"
We have heard of liauos being
taken to the Agency and drank
by Leading officials, and of their
being drunk on them: but these
things have never yet come under
our own observation. The larger
portion of the other charges ap-
pear 10 relate to the management
of the leases and the Milwau-
kcc cattle trail. On this
latter the charges can all

undue partiality has been shown to

From a Prohibition standpoint,
the most serious charge to which
abundant evidence has been pro-
duced is the official bootlegging
and hcerguzzling: and we have
omitted mentioning names of such
officials, because it is the story of

ord of the matter and a proper one.
If a man conducts a slot machine
without a license a similar course
should be pursued with reference
to him. What sort of a system is
it that permits a police officer to go
from one saloon to another and collect
fine, when no fine has been imposed
by the court, or to collect a license
when no license certificate has been
issued? In the judgment of one or
two attorneys, who have looked into
the matter, every one of the people
who have had money taken from them
in this manner can sue and recover.
We all understand that certain vices
and offenses are tolerated, under GER
tain restrictions. But in no city other
than this do officers go from bagnio
to bagnio assessing inmates, or from
saloon to saloon collecting fines" or
licenses.
It is no work for police officers eth
err. Policemen are conservators of the
peace and their duties are along other
lines. There are holdups galore in
Salt Lake City and the efforts of the
constabulary ought to be directed to-
ward their apprehension; not chasing
around collecting fines"
AS a matter of fact the affairs of
this city are being conducted in a
rotten manner. Every inducement is
offered honest men to graft and it is
high time the practice was stopped.
The authorities cannot say they have
not been warned for they have. and
that repeatedly, but still they sit SUI.
pinely and permit this thing to go on.

TO THE CITY GOVERNMENT.

Once more we direct the attention of
the city government to the fact that
the present method of collecting fines
imposed for illegal practices is
wrong one. 1t is one where every in,
centive for graft is offered. The Of
iicer making the collections gives no
receipts; simply enters the amount
paid on his book and then turns the
money in. Since the publication in
last weeks issue a saloon man. who
conducts slot machines, informs us
that he paid enc months fine in q
check, which was issued to the Of
flcer collecting and that the check
when returned to the drawer by the
bank, showed it had been cashed by
the officer and no one else In this
instance the amount was turned over
as investigation shows, but such a
practice is loose one and one that
invites grating.
Besides this, what right has the
city to collect money from persons
guilty CT offenses without due process
of law? If woman is an harlot and
is violating the law the proper method
to adopt is to show that she has been
placed under arrest and that the
