Vandalism.

An expedition now being organized in
New York city to traverse the whole
United States on mission of vandalism,
more permanent In its effects than that
perperated by strikers, tramps and rioters,
has recently been unearthed. Ten painters
employed by the "New York Advertising
sign company" are going out to plant signs
on rocks, ON mountain tops between that
city and the Pacific ocean signs extolliug
the virtues Of pills and potons, soaps and
hair ellis. There is a law In Vermont and
New York which prohibits the defaclng of
natural scenery by such signs, but the ad-
veftising agents do not expect to meet any
opposition. But without special laws to
meet the yandals who 60 about defacing
natural scenery with pots OF paint, an ef-
1cient stop could be put to their practices
By property owners-whose rocks or trees
are dishgured. Many of these, however,
condone the crime for 80 much cash.
