FOR SOCIAL REFORM
Salt Lake people Determined to Wipe
Out the Restricted District Of That
city-conference Held Yesterday in
Mormon cpaital.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Dec. 21-
The social evil is bringing on a con
flict, between the city and county Off
cials with the state administration
backing the county. For more than
ten years the courtesans have held
forth in certain blocks in the heart Of
the city. A few months ago two cap
italists purchased q large tract near
the Rio Grande yards and built tene-
ments with stockade for the purpose
of establishing a restricted district"
Mayor Bransford has taken the post
tion that, as the evil cannot be eradi.
Gated, 1t should be segregated under
police supervision. He recently caused
the removal Of Thomas Pitt, chief Of
police, because Mr.. Pitt was not In
harmony with the segregation policy.
The property owners In the vicinity
OF the stockade are up In arms against
the segregation scheme and today Gov
ernor Cutler held q conference with
Governor-elect Shay, the county -attor-
ney elect. the county commissioners,
officers OF the Juvenile court and one
or two ministers. at which 1t was de
cided to invoke the law against any
compromise with the evil.
