DENZENS OF THE UNDERWORLD

Exodus of Undesirables From Colo.
RADIO City.-Given Ten Days to
Get Up and Get, and They
Are Hiking.

Moral reform is making itself felt
in Colorado City, and recently more
than half of the 81 inmates of dis
orderly houses ordered to leave
have packed up and left. Many of
the women left for Denver, Pueblo
and other cities, and indications are
that before the 10 days OF grace ex-
pire every house in the district will
be vacant.
The citizens realize that this will
mean a considerable financial loss
to the city; but the moral conscience
has been awakened to a pitch where
residents and business men are pre-
pared to suffer financially to reach
the end aimed at-a clean city. 1t
is recognized that in time the finan-
cial loss will be more than recovered
in other ways, especially In the mat
ter of increased tourist patronage
and a new influx of permanent resi-
dents.
The opposition OF the residents of
the Arensdale, Grand View and Rus
tic Home additions to annexation
will be withdrawn, and their long
cherished incorporation with the city
will be accomplished.
The administration is also making
a thorough cleaning up OF rooming
houses and gambling dens and an
exodus of their denizens has begun.
The lid has likewise been clamped
on the saloons. so that after mid
night and on Sundays there is moth
ing doing.
