RED LIGHTS
UNDER BAN

AT special meeting of the City
Trustees called last night for the
purpose of hearing the committee
from the Promotion Association, sew
eral arguments were heard demand
ing the removal of the red light dis
trict from the vicinity of Third and
Nevada streets.
A. NJ Ardery who first addressed
the board was very emphatic in his
declarations concerning the condi-
tions about the locality where these
houses are allowed to exist. He told
of many occasions when the disturb
ances IN rne houses We're so bad that
he was Kept in misery nignt after
night
C. G.. LeMasters, President of the
Association next addressed the board
and offered all the assistance the citi
zens of the association could give
anu went on to say that if the prose
cutOrs needed complaints the asso-
citation stood ready to make them.
District Attorney Roberts offered
all the assistance his office could
give and said that any prosecutions
would be made for the city to the
best of his ability.
After the committee was excused
the board entered .ntO discussion as
to the best way to handle the matter
and instructed the marshal and the
sheriff to proceed accordingly, giving
them authority to employ all assts-
tance needed.
The officers have decided that the
way to proceed is to give the
matter all the publicity possible and
warn all the habitues of the places
against entering under penalty or
having their names made public and
being called upon to give testimony
against the houses.

too when they will be aroused to
these duties and be inadequate to

| There are not enough guards. There
should be at least three more. The
present men are worked too hard.
What would a little ban1 however
true of shot and devotion, do if 200

rampage. Ana this is exactly what
is feared The Warden feels it, the
guards have an instructive fear that
something tremendous is going to
happen.

ing a busy, husky criminal in the yard
going from group to group, gesticu-
lating and talking:
Don't you fear plots are being
Look at that big, husky fellow"
Yes" he replied, Il feel as if l
was living over a volcano. That big
fellow you see going from crowd to
crowd is an agitatOr of the worst
kind. He is an arrant coward and
has been good for some time, but he
is beginning his tactics again. He
stirs up more trouble tnan any five
men in the yard. It's that class of
men idleness works havoc with, but
what can we do? We have no place
to work them and as for working a
crew of them on the road. that's all
foolishness. 1t would be inviting dis
aster to take gang OF 40 or 80 OF

Warden we have five women pris-

pectable hen house, "and there are
absolutely no arrangements for them.
There isn't even water in the place.
Additions and everything else must
be done in pals or buckets. This is
wrong, but what can We do
The same question every time,
What can we do"
The Warden has done wonderful
work since his incumbency. He re-
duced the cost per prisoner from

isn't much, he says, but it is some
thing. 1t is entirely too mucn yet
According to him it is all going out

At the present time there are PA
