Yet the officers make them #top. When they appeal to you, they say, you tell them to get out of town. They protest to me that they are Seattle residents, with homes they own here, and, av they are violating no law, they are going out of town, Frankly, their story rather tends to put you in the light ot an unreasonable autocrat.
