DEFENDS GRAFTERS
AND CUT-THROATS

In your columns of Aug. End appeared
an explanation OF an article ublished in
your paper, June IA "Cut throat gets
boys last cent" The writer blamed the
city officials for allowing these fellows to
run their game, and they are to blame
to some extent. 1t seems the officials of
Minot or any other town, for that mat
ter, allow most any kind of game to be
played for consideration of dollars and
cents, but the boy was to blame more
than they were. The boys object was
to get something for nothing-the mo-
tive OF every robber and crook-and
then the writer is in favor of "wiping
thess cut-throats from off the earth''
These people have as much right to live
AS anyone else; they are running their
own game for profit, and anyone who
tries 20 win from them is fool and not
entitled to public sympathy, and if we
are going to do any blaming we should
put the blame whore it belongs. Stop
graft; stop profit. And these cut-throats,
together with the houses OF prostitution
and the saloon will fall of their own &C
cord, and these people will do useful and
honorable work. CHAs. KRAUsK.
