All are serious. ‘I on their PROSECU COURT PUTS VICE NUISANGE UP TO VANDERVEER; APS GILL The responsibility for tne suppression of the restricted district placed squarely on the shoulders of Prosecuting Attorney Vanderveer this morning. Judge Ronald refused to issue the 1,000 warrants for the arrest of restricted district denizen od by the Public Welfare league, but ordered Vanderveer to take the evidence, and if the nuisance of the restricted district was not abated, to bring in warrants for the arrest of all undesirables by next Saturday. Otherwise Vanderveer will have to explain to the court. dudge Ronaid made it plain that the court would not be @ party to any restricted district nuisance, and that the mayor is not above the power of the bench to see that its orders were obeyed. Mayor Gill, Chief of Police Wappenstein and Prosecuting Attor ney Vandetveer were present. The court room was crowded when Judge Ronald gave the following oral decision: “Uve given this matter considerable thought since last Saturday, and while the complaint is not drawn with that exactness which 1 should think is necessary, the court wil! take judicial notice that you charge @ great many persons with crime. The court will not wink at any infraction of the law, and will not overlook it. it is charged that the district is a public nuleance; that there are 600 prosti tutes, macques and pimps constantly there. You also charge that the mayor fails to suppress thie nuisance; that alse the chief of po- tice fails to enforce the law “This court has no jurisdiction to try the mayor for refusing to enforce city ordinances. It is aise doubtful in my mind that the court has the right to issue the warrants you for for the arrest of the mayor and the other defendants alleged to be violating the law. You say that the prosecuting attorney has refused to issue the warrants “The court therefore now orders the prosecuting attorney to take the affidavit referred to, examine it carefully, and orders him to file informations by the end of the week against every person named in the compiaint who is guilty at that time of violating the haw. “If the nuisance is wiped out, the prosecuting attorney need not file an information. There is no neo ity to burden the county with useless expenses if the nuisange is abated. “It the law of thie state you say, the mayor is required to enforce state laws. If he disobey that law, then, by permitting the nuisance, he should be also arrested. The court takes judicial notice that the property owners and others who conduct the houses of prostitution are guilty of offense against the atate, ‘There is nobody above the law. If the mayor has been violating the law, he should be punished. The law is not going to make a bargain with vice. The law wants the nuisance abated, and is going to abate it. “If the nuisance is not abated, the prosecuting attorney will file his informations against every violator by Saturday morning, or he must explain to this court why he falied to do so. | am unwilling to assume that the prosecuting attorney will not do his duty, On other occasions when he has been charged with being unfaithful to his duty, and | had made a request of him, | found that he complied with the requirements of his duties.” VANDERVEER WILL DODGE. The Public Welfare league has no hope that Vanderveer will @ any warrants. Vanderveer will see to it that he does not find any evidence that the restricted district is in operation, and will so report to the court by next Saturday. The court wil! not go behind the word of the prosecuting attorney, and there the matter will probably rest The league, however, will have committees on watch in the re UPREME COURT UNMASKED aman with a weak little lamp in his cap, we way is barely ave the sunlight and the noises of the world behind, the m« untain itself seems Home and friends seem millions of miles bones.
