energies largely on driving the crim

are receiving wide commendation from
some of the reformers. But how san
crims be diminished by esusing crim

smallpox patients from Munds to In

deport from tho town, then It ought
to be strong enough to brirtg about
his arrest snd conviction. Spreading
criminality over a wide territory is not
curing it.
