town, but if no other method can be de
vised to eradicate gambling, then we
should not be surprised if the sentiment
of the people ran in that direction. This
is the plan adopted in a few towns, and
other towns are catching on. The peo
ple of this city have not arrived at the
point where they will tamely endure the
presence in large numbers of gamblers,
or those who thrive on the wages of
poor fallen women. The lives of these
women are degrading in any community,
but it is not so bad compared with the
demon who profits by their shame and
knocks then down and shamefully kicks
them. We are not in favor of lynching,
but there is swift justice in it at times.
There is one satisfaction in this shame
ful conduct. This class will make the
“sports” so odious that the people will
not longer endure the open violation of
law, and when public indignation is suf
ficiently aroused the whole shameful
business will be stopjied. The H ead
light now call upon the city officials to
enforce the city and state laws in every
particular. Tillamook City and her good
people are not owned yet by the lawless
element.
