.RED-L|GHT is UP
TO MUNICIPALITY
- ----------
Attorney General Breeder Says
Authority TO Suppress Vice
Is So Invested.
ENFORCE THE ORDINANCES
IL Is the Particular Duty of the City
And Its Officers to See
Law is Upheld.

Attorney General Breeder was asked
today, by a News" representative, for
his opinion on the claim that it was
his duty TO take an active hand in
settling the red light moving question,
as alleged in a morning publication.
Judge Breeden said: authority 10
suppress houses of i'll fame or plnces
of evi! resort is vested in municipali-
ties. The city OF Salt Lake has passed
an ordinance, now in force. which,
among other things, says that 1t shall
be unlawful for any fallen woman to
advertiZe in any manner her vocation,
or that she snail be guilty Of immoral
ity. 1t shall be unlawful for any
person to keep or maintain in the city
of Salt Lake. any house of Ill fame or
evil resort; and it shall be unlawful
for any owner or agent of property to
lease or rent property for lewd or
lascivious purposes. This inhibition is
contained in section 459, city ordinances
OF 1903
Law SHOULD BE ENFORCED.
THESE laws and ordinances should
While the state, through it's prosecut-
ing officers, have the right to prose-
cute for prostitution, yet it is the
particular duty of the city and its
officials, in accordance with its own
charter to prosecute. suppress, and
close UP resorts of i'll fame and all
business operated there. The propo-
sition to remove the red light district
from its present location to another
locality and establish a stockade or
pen, is too abhorrent for right think
ing people to consider favorably. The
person who suggested this is entitled
TO the sharpest condemnation The
crime of prostitution ought not to be
condoned--it ought to be suppressed.
No authority exists for picking up
bodily an institution like Commercial
street, and planting it down anywhere
within the city limits. or elsewhere,
for that matter. | am opposed to 1t,
and hold it to be the duty of the
city to put a stop to 1t, and suppress
it. The office of the attorney general
has nothing to do With the matter.
UTAH OUGHT NOT TO START.
1T is shocking to think that men
of this intelligent age should require
that some place be set aside or apart
where they can crafty their desires;
and Utah ought not to set any such
ton and suppression of that sort of
vice. ] don't believe in licensing 1t.
There is nothing in the claim that the
women will scatter over the city II
any attempt is really made to sup
press them. Their establishments
should be broken UP: and in general,
all collections of people gathered for
vicious purposes ought to be suppress
ed. The city ordinances make II a
misdemeanor to rent any building or
part of building to be used as places
of immortality; and the law ought to
be enforced Such action would stop
this thing and break it up"

The Columbia State says as Mr.

going at five o'clock Monday morn.
