be nooded back Into the town must cease.
Let W. work in harmony TO clean up the
pity:
Il 10 claimed that sinks and lavatOries
20 sumo houses empty upon the surface,
|1ralning into the streets and slIe,s, and
That dead rats aud other animals are Uc-
cssionally thrown into the streets. 1t
g,sved scarcely be SAID that such evils must
fsease.
N The city administration has no desire
20 be unnecessarily harsh Or meddIesome,
but the call for cleaner city will be
heeded, and the necessary regulations will
be enforced. This will be deemed suf-
hcient notice, aud later notice will be
Is.ued uom the police Department. The
Mayor has asked for the enactment OF
lcity ordinances iu conformity to the state
lprohibitory law; that Is, an ordinance
fxIug penalty Of NOT less than $lOO.W
por more than e5O0.O0 and imprisonment
kor NOT less than 80 days nor more tnan
months in tn, city jai,, and providing
for searcn and seizufs, and the abatement
Iof nulsanees. As s0vn a. necessary erdi-
nsnces can be procured, It IS expected to
eniorcs the Law for TWO sulid years. The
mayor will not undertake to say that
E/fea, malt tonic aud so-called two
I ger ceuts are not intoxicating for the
teasoa that the Law makes no such dis.
inctiouS The Mayor did not make the
law. He did not seek election. His views
hpon law enforcement we're known at the
lime u bis election. He has NO desire to
be sensational, bat he will enforce the
law. ltis his belief that no city has the
hight 10 encourage jolnts aud their at
sndaus evils, resulting 10 court expenses

BootlegRers and depot distributors will

Law yiolators under citv ordinances,
khsthsr the viclators Of the prohlbitory
Irdinarce or other ordinances are tired

licrona therefore ought not 10 be dim
hlt, and 1t will be well for those who
bDtrmplate violation Of the Law to
tke notice OF the penalty whNch the law

Irthe suppression Of gambling dens. The
