This portion of Tho principal thoroughfare of the City is nearly As nature nude it Only not quite so Good being encumbered Stith piles of Earth from the tank pit.

License for Tho Salo of spirituous liquors within their District is there no possibility of yet overriding by some Legal technicality and objection perhaps one of Tho License commissioners would kindly give Tho necessary information through Tho medium of your columns. I remain sir yours obediently inquirer. St Andrews August 28th, 1875. The abomination of Desola Tion. To the editor of the Fisk pubs. Tho majority of your readers no doubt regard the speedy abatement of Thot monster nuisance of Whoso exis tence in this City several correspondents have complained As most desirable and look to their representatives in the Council who have Boon so respectfully and urgently petitioned to in Tho Mattor with decision and promptitude. That so much imported i Loncess should have been suffered to Settle it self Down within the City limits and there carry on its infamous and dread Ful work of contamination and death and to flaunt and advertise itself in our streets in the most offensive manner fairly elbowing or shaming ladies of respectability from our sidewalks seems to us und to these shameless harlots themselves very sur prising. And if i can judge aright of to pure minded of this City and others we Hae reached a Point beyond which these do graded ones and their silly or brutish supporters will meet with but Little forbearance. As the City Council must possess the Power to Abate Nui Sincof especially when Thoy arc of a kind which put in jeopardy the property health and lives of citizens so most be mainly they must to clothed with Tho requisite authority to Deal with is depreciating property spreading moral contagion and rendering even life Inse cure authority to scatter these walking or driving pests of society and if need to ship them every one Back to Tho land whence Thoy came. Tho his tory cities and of the working of such infamous and hell instigated establishments resulting As they have in disorder lawlessness crime and even bloodshed should stimulate All our City officials to a very decided and thorough and prompt course of action. If this be refused or oven delayed Here we May look for the like results. And when the blood of some foolish one shall have Boon poured out amid those scenes of intemperance wantonness lust and murder then it will be too Lalo to pre vent what we should ill deprecate the uprising of a Community to avenge in self upon those who May be deemed Tho cause of the great outrage. Let hot our magistracy Bear Tho sword of of fice and Power in vain and then the interference of a certain kind of Law will be a thing unknown. Let these Dens be the name of every inmate end guest placed in a Black Roll of infamy and gazetted until Tho plague snot shall disappear. 1 6 c Winnipeg August 30th, 1875.
