The Times-Visitor tculay rticiveil 9
communication from a iiti.'.'i of Hnjoiifli
dealing with an unpleao.u.i SMhjcit. hut
one which should he finci. it is a son
mis question, hut if tin- facts stait-1 ..le
all that is claimed, the c:,.y air liorit
ure some one of the ri.t-:istri.;ic.i in Fti.l-t-igh
should act at once.
The romniuuication i us follows:
"There is certainly a laxity of enforce
ment of the law by those entrusted with
the dispensing of the same, in regard to
maintaining the moral standing of this
municipality. At common law all open
lewdness, grossly scandalous actions
which openly outrages decency, and is in
jurious to public morals, are Indictnhlc.
Improperly conducted house where both
hexes of evil tame and naau are suffered
to remain lewdly and lesciviously misbe
having themselves are at common law
public nuisances and liable lo indictment.
Any place kept where dessolute an de
bauched persons ore drawn together en
dangers the public peace, outrages de-
reucy and corrupts morals anil should be
bummnrily dealt with by law.
"In our midst is such a place it may
lie there are numerous such but there is
tine In particular, located on East Davie
ptreet kept by a disreputable woman. Hut
a few days ago a young girl liorn and
raised in Raleigh, was carried to this
house by a man and became an Inmatft
thereof, throwing herself into a life of
debauchery. The next day this depraved
Jnan, procured a license and married the
Itirl to avoid a criminal prosecution, and
since his marriage and now is keeping
his wife in this house of public prostitu
tion, submitting herself to all the sur
roundings of such a place.
"In the name of God, in defense of pub
lie morals, in maintenance of common de
cency and in behalf of virtue shall such
R condition of affairs continue in our
midst. Our police pass this house many
times during the day. and see its inmates
on the porch, at the gate, and on the
Bidewalk. They know all about this awful
ntory of the! young girl. The justice of
the peace who married them knows the
whole story. Every magistrate in the city
has heard it. Will no legal steps be taken
to wipe out this foul stain upon our good
name?"

The executive committee of the Teach

day night and after a session lasting
several hours decided to hold the next
cession of the Assembly at Morehead.
There Were two bidders for it More
head and Wilmington. The advantages
iifforded and the Inducements offered by
both places were fully discussed, and
finally Morehead was selected.
-The reasons thai influenced the com
mittee in -mnkiug this choice are set
forth In the following letter sont yester
day by Secretary Mebane to the chair
tuan of the Wilmington committee:

ToDo III Costs More
Than To Do Well."
This might properly read,
"It costs more to BE ill
than to BE ivell." The
source of all health is rich,
strong blood. It is to the
body what the mighty
streams are to the earth.
If the blood is pure, the
body thrives ; if the blood
is iveak or impoverished,
then every pulse-beat car
ries weakness instead of
strength. The only perfect blood purifier
and i' tjW-maker in existence is the tvorld
fimed Hood's SursiptriHi. It brings
good, perfect health.
Catarrh and Deafness - "lam
