Mayor Jones said this morning in regard to the ordinance passed ‘last night prohibiting the distribution of obscene ous papers in Nevada: “I will instruct the police to ar rest any man, woman or child off ing for sale in Nevada the Kansas City Sunday Sun or any other ob- scene literature. In case where child- ren sell such publications their par ents will be held responsible and punished according to the ordinance. “I will do allin my power while in office to suppress the sale of such scandalous literature. Persons who have any idea of handling such pub lications can rest assured that they will bs arrested and vigorously pros- ecuted,” What is good for Nevada ought to be good for Butler. Why not pass and enforce asimilar ordinance for this city. Vicious and obscene literature should not be allowed sold on our streets, and the Times agrees with the Post, that the scandal mon- ger who furnishes the lies for filthy, sensational journals should be caught and whipped out of town. sale, gift or| Letter From a Missionary. Memphis, Tenn, Dec. relatives of Mrs. Helen Royster‘Bliss who reside in Memphis, are in re- ceipt of a letter relative to the Ar menian wars. Mr. snd Mrs. Bliss are native Memphians, and are con- nected with the American Bible so- ciety at Constantinople. Mrs. Bliss says: “Weare having an anxious time here and know not what to ex- pect. At Harpoot all but four of our missionary houses have been destroyed and these were looted. At Erzeroum 20,000 armed Armenians were killed in less than ten days. } There is no doubt at all that all these outrages are committed with the sanction of the Sultan. The Bulga rian massacres were but a dropin the bucket. Of course there was the same fiendish cruclties at that time but they are not to be compared with this in extent. 100,000 Armen- ians have been butcherd,mostly men leaving women and children in awful poverty, with winter upon them. None of the ambassadors have rec ommended their communities to leave the city, and that gives us hope that v we will be safe.
