Citizens II views on Nelsons Baker Street nuisance
In Nelson March 19 a letter to The Miner urges the city to address the Baker Street prostitution problem by relocating houses to Bogustown or a Chinese garden site near West Baker Street. The writer proposes using fines, raids, or police court action to remove the vice, with or without purchasing property, and criticizes the council for inaction.
