fought that The Republic might live.
ANSWERS THAT DO NOT ANSWER
! The Tribune, the other day, made a
desperate effort at getting away from
] the fact that the .'red-light district
4 is Il protege or so-called American ofii-
4 cials But it was not successful. It
4 pretended TO answer some questions
4 suggested by the News but in the
! alleged answers 1t deliberately falsi-
| fed, and then tried to cover its false
hoods by a series OF questions irrele7
want To the subject under discussion
The paper denies any knowledge OF ne
! gotiations, during a former adnlinistra-&
| ton. with the Ogden woman, by Salt
| Lake parties, for the establishment OF
a stockade here; which denial will be
taken for what 1t is worth. and no
more, by those on the inside.
1t admits that an American" chief
or police publicly proposed the in
fanny, but adds: And the Tribune 'r' b N g
| promptly denounced the proposition.
The Tribune denounced the proposed
stockada as a municipal institution, but
not the stockade itself, two entirely
different propositions. IT lodges the
| question whether a certain American
| official Eave5the stockade plan his en-
dorsement. by saying, we think not,
officially but ono of them was quoted
1 to that effect in the newspapers" One
Of them was quoted in the evening APP
4 pendix of the Tribune as having said
.as mayor Of this city"
4 II have personally visited every part
i of the city in conn any with other city
Il officials and others interested for ana
against the movement Of these people,
4 and Z finally came to the conclusion, B:
/ etc.
The Tribune, in n pretended answer
i TO this question: Has the American POI
! lice department, after the vigorous pro-
tests OF the public, done anything at
all to close the cribs. or has that de-
! partment, In violation of law, aided the
i owners of the stockade In procuring
/ inmates?" replies:f
"rhe American police department. is
OF course viglant in tho enforcement
of the law in this matter; and II mas
certainly not aided the owners or the
4 stockade in procuring inmates. buL
Il the whole matter is taken out OF the
i hands of the police, by the order OF the
1 court. which has taken special jurls-
l dictinn of the case. and issued an IN
\ junction thereon, directed to the Sher-
l iii. who is the officer relied upon by
the court, to enforce its order forbid
4 ding the vice usually attendant upon
i the red light district, to be practiced
B there"
Is that true9 Have not women of the
4 underworld been notified by police Of
7 hcers that they had to move to the
stockade? If not, what was the stock
ade intended for by the chief Of police
and other American" officials? We
have been reliably informed that an
i officer at one time was stationed at
Il the entrance Of the enclosure and that
Lone of his duties was to warn the In
mates of the approach of employees OF
1.-THE Sheriff.
But the contention that the whole
4 matter Is taken out of the hands of the
s. police by the order of the court, by
an Injunction directed to the Sheriff
is mere rot and nonsense. No court
can take away from the chief of police
the duty of experimenting persons Nio-
z latlng the law and the City ordinances.
And there Is, moreover no word in the
A injunction that can be construed TO
n mean that the court had any intention
of interfering with the police. Here
is the text of the injunction:
I'm the Third Judicial District Court in
and for Salt Lake County, State OF
Utah.
