spite numerous and continued warn

on his face.
COUNCIL ON RECORD.
The council reversed itself last night
on the "red light" district removal
proposition,and went on record as being
opposed to the proposed removal. The
matter came up in the form of a pro-
test against moving the district over
to the west side in the midst of resi-
dence and school district, from the
Democratic Woman's club of the city,
signed by Mrs. II. j. Haywood, presi-
dent, and Mrs e. D, j. Roundy, secre-
tary. When the protest had been read,
Councilman Stewart moved that it be
filed, with other like protests. on the
ground that the council could not take
official cogniZance of the existence of
any evil in the city limits.

he thought il was high time the coun-

pretend officially to know nothing
about it was farce, Il think it is
