either good or bad, without politics. Ii
you want good government you have got
to have good politicians. Emphasizing
the responsibility of the press relative TO
crime, the Mayor appealed to the news
papers to treat-the enforcement problem
more seriously and discontinue criticism
of the police department i'll their efforts
to enforce all the laws. While the Mayor
made no specific mention of newspapers,
it is believed he had in mind an article by
Arthur Evans published i'll the Chicago
Tribune of November 29 the preceding
day. In this article Mr.. Evans put forth
statements to the effect that efforts of the
police to enforce laws against liquor had
resulted in an increase OF murder and
other major crimes.

sued by the Illinois branch OF the Asso-

booklet is reviewed by Parke Brown in
the Chicago Tribune OF December Q as
follows:
While it has rot been disclosed
what legislation it hopes to effect at
Washington or Springfield, the Ma
tional Association Opposed to Pro-
hibition served notice yesterday on
Illinois congressman and assembly
men that they'd better not vote dry if
they come from wei districts.
This was the message Of a forty
page booklet issued by the Illinois
branch OF the organization The fore
word reads as follows:
The congressman or other repre-
sentative who goes from a liberal dis

questionably opposed TO prohibition.

there votes away the rights and free
dom OF the people is more dangerous
than the thief or CRATER who merely
takes away our wealth.
Vote is Analysed
The body of the booklet is made
UP of an analysis OF the vote in each
of the congressional and legislative
districts upon the beer and wine ref

is checked the vote of the national
and state Legislators on dry measures.

Public Opinion Favors Enforcement

opeaklng TO several thousand present
at the Sunday Evening Club and many
more who listened in by radio, Mayor
William L. Dever, of Chicago, on Sunday,
November 80, reaffirmed his determina-
ton 10 enforce the law, including prohi-
biiion. He declared that with proper CO.
operation of the federal, county and city
forces cleanup of crime could be we'll
ON its way within forty-eight hours Ger
tain newspapers of Chicago were criti-
cized by the mayor for raising the ques-
ton of whether all laws should be en-
forced or whether liquor law violations
should be disrcgarded. Enforcement"
the Mayor declared, is not debatable
question before any intelligent moral au-
dience." Referring to gambling, vice and
booze joints, Mayor Dever said, "These
are the--breeding grounds of criminals
and their Fairgrounds after they have
committed their crimes. If we are tor
suppress crime and criminals, we have to
put these resorts out of business Ex-
pressing his belief that the public fayors
law enforcement, Mayor Deyer said, "If
I were a young man laying the basis for
political career | would begin by stand

every law on the statutes. The vast ma
jority are for law enforcement. When [
consider the whole mass of people | think
everything is alright. A few gangs of
murderers can't threaten the continuation
OF our government" To prove that con-
ditions in Chicago from an enforcement
standpoint are improving, the Mayor re-
ferred to lawessness in Cook county ter
ritory outside of the municipal limits He
pointed out that if the efforts of the
Mayor and the police were ineffective it
would not be necessary for criminals to
seek other haunts.
Upholds Chief Collins
Declaring that he would stand by Chief
of Police Morgan Collins so long as he
is doing his duty, Mayor Dever cited
further proof that enforcement is becom-
ing increasingly effective in Chicago. The
elements that are trying to get Chief Col
Inns out of office, he said, have convinced
him that his police chief is doing his
duty. After declaring that the wording
of the 18th Amendment is clear and that
it is the duty of the executive to enforce
the law, Mayor Dever referred to the
duties of other officials whose jurisdiction
includes Chicago. He then declared that
if all OF the federal, county and munci
pal forces would cooperate it would in

Calling upon citizens to take greater
interest in public problems, Mayor De-

at times. makes the success of the Republican ticket in this city doubt ful. The people who have gone over the line into West Hartford continue to have business and social interests in Hartford. Fully sixty per cent of the residents of West Hartford spend their business hours in Hartford and most of them would like to vote here. From the question that have been asked there seems to be an impress sion that the Legislature has no power under the constitution to change the status of town once the dignity of township has been conferred on it. That is an erroneous impression. Within the past few years West Haven has been taken from the town of Orange and has been set up in town shipping on its own account. It will be recalled that when the legislature divided the town of Norwalk into two towns in 1908 the right of the legis- lature to make the division was not questioned in the consideration of the veto of Governor Chamberlain. The veto was attacked by friends of the measure on the ground that the gor- ernor had lost his right of veto by delaying too long to exercise 1t. The late Samuel Frisbie, who represented the town of Pennington many years ago, said one day in the house: "The legislature has the power to give a town what kind of charter 1t has a mind to give and it is the duty of the town to behave itself under it." The town of West Hartford is in the fifth district where it's votes are not nee essary to maintain the supremacy of the Republican party. The migrants from Hartford are mostly Republican and their change of residence has not abated their loyalty to the Republican party. They would like to vote in the town where their vote is most needed The Democrats when they took New Britain from Berlin. sey- enty-four years since, were aetuated
 by desire to increase the Demo cratic vote in the house of represen- tatives.

Hartford and West Hartford


 The interest which Is taken in the proposition to annex West Hartford to Hartford is not confined to the two communities directly interested or to the county in which they are located. Up to seventy years ago West Hartford was g part of Hart ford. The separation of West Hart ford had not the unanimous approval of the people of the town when the separation was decreed by the Legis- lature, and there has always been a lingering longing for reunion. Hart ford is will to be reunited to West Hartford but it has always taken the position that West Hartford should not be forced into a reunion against it's will. The remarkable growth of West Hartford has been due to the migration of Hartford people to 1t. Most of these people are Republican in politics. Their removal from Hart ford has reduced the Republican vote of the capitol city to an extent which,

AFTER SIX YEARS FORCER

to Jailer Jack Barry when he walked
into the police station at Butte re-
Gently and related story of being a
fugitive for six years from Bozeman,
where he says he forged check for
twenty dollars.
Nelson, looking careworn and tired
from long travelling, asked Assistant
Chief of police Mike O'Donnell to in
form Bozeman authorities that he
was in custody and announced that
he was ready to take any punishment
that might be due him.
The man declared that it was near

would ''tell everything" to Gallatin
authorities when they came for him
Nelson was a farmer near Bozeman
six years ago when he sold an auto
mobile owned jointly by himself and
another man, he said. He also forged
check, he said, and then disap-

In the six years of absence he has
not written to relatives in Bozeman
and has been in every section of the
country. Afraid to linger long in one
part, his life was one continual NOV

He has been in Butte about two
