were outside Taylorville and the redlight district. "Doesn't It show the strongest proof that this work was not done all over the city, a city 'of 60.000 people, but that it was done In the precincts in which Holler and Nugent ruled as iron masters, going to gamblers, keepers of brothels and saloon men who keep open Sunday, -demanding large sums of money from them. -; , ' Mayor In Campaign. - "What was the mayor doing? - He told you he was a candidate for office out campaigning over the state. Why should he not assume the police were doing their duty. - There is not a ray of evidence or proof that any one ever went to Roberts and -said that Holler and Nugent were not doing their duty."

tors to follow it when it votes no one. Why if Roberts had planned thH scheme there would not have been any heed for. repeaters." -He asserted the inspectors -were regularly appointed, that Roberta obeyed the injunctions of Judge Cox and that the regular inspectors did not serve and that when Joe Jeffers shot up Fayetteville he did it without the orders of Roberts.
