Big Leak In The Lid
Thk Tkiuune suggested recently
that there were evidences that someone
was needed to occupy the lid which
was placed on the social evil of our city
during the closing weeks of Mayor
FahnestookB administration More
recently evidence has accumulated that
the lid has been removed or that the
occupant of the lid haB gone off and for
gotten his business In other words
it is plainly evident that the evil is
openly existent and it seems to The
Tiubunk that it is as plainly ovidont
that the law of the state of Nebraska
and of the city of McCook should bo en
forced in this respect Why self-respecting
citizens why law abiding
citizens whv men with homes wives
daughters sons aye even husbands
should supinely allow this moral ulcer
to gnaw at the vitals of the community
is past explanation The lid ought to
go on and stay on
Those who violate the laws of social
morality those who have a part in the
degradation of womanhood and thus
strike a blow nt the very foundation of
home the family virtue should expect
and receive no more allowance in a mod
ern decent Christian community than
the one who steals but paltry dollars or
chattels
The laws of Nebraska make an effort
at compelling its citizens to be honest
that is observe the rights of property
Those same statutes not to mention
the higher laws of God Almighty re
quire under penalty that her citizens
shall be morally decent that virtue
shall bo protected and not trafficked in
for filthy lucre
Shall we allow and encourage moral
leprosy and continue to hurl all our ir
resistible legal bolts againet suspicions
of diphtheria or chicken pox God
save the mark
Uld Man Strayed Away
Michael Newell of West Point Illi

rived in the city Wednesday evening on
train 5 on their way to Lafayette Colo

They had to remain here until train 3
The old gentlemans mental condition
is somewhat hazy Upon the arrival of
train 14 from the west he got on the
train but was put off the train before
it had reached the eastern limit of the
yard In his uncertain mental state he
wandered during the night across the
river wading through the shallow
stream and on southeast into the Ash
Creek neighborhood being seen at the
Voge and Fiecbtner farms during the
following morning Mr Fiechtner fin
ally prevailed on the old gentleman to
get into his vehicle and come to town
The delight of the distracted women
can be better imaged than described
They left for the west on train 3 Thurs
