* VOL XXVII B MM Against Nuisance Operating Near Corporate Limits PETITION CIRCULATED Several Mulatto Women of Shady Character the Cause of Trouble,-Conway Generally Free From Social Vice Evil,?Citizens Intend to Try to Keep it so. Sime days ago a petition was circulated among the people of the town addressed to the town and county authorities, praying that some action bo taken to stop the operations of a diye of mulatto women who the petition stated had moved to a house just outside the corporate limits. The petition stated facts, which if true, make it imperative that the authorties mentioned shall interfere to havo the parties punished and run out of the town. It appears that their conduct with those who j patronize them mostly white men and boys, is enough to create disgust in the minds of all who are on the side of morals and common decency. The dives of vico having been broken up in many of tho cities in this State, by means of the crusade directed against them, as well as in tho towns and cities of North Carolina, tho inmates have lied to w? r~..~ ?.1 viic iuui uuhjuis ui tuu eurui. Those who are referred to in the petition are supposed to have been run away from Wilmington, N. C. The petition had many s'gners, and it was said that it would be * presented to the authorities the first of this week, Just what action will bo taken by theui ou the petiv # tion is not known, but as a general r4 rule the authorities here will act w hen called upon and the necessity of action is pointed out to them They will no doubt see that these vile creatures are ousted. It is to be deplored that it is in the power of such people to coriupt the morals of white men and boys, but according to the petition, and the reliable information upon which it seems to be based, such has been the case to more or less extent. The men who patronize such places are as low as the inmates, but the law does not undertake to punish them. News Notes From Pcllium, Ga.
