To The Editor Of The Nd'ional Republican:
At the so.callcd mass meeting at the Capitol
last evening Mr.. Isaac Cohen is reported in
the Standard as having used the following Ian
guage: That the Departments were abiding
places for political tricksters or women put
there for purposes best known to those who
did it,"
Now, 1t sc ems strange that while Mr.. Cohen
seems to advocate the cause of workingmcr.
and working women he should thus publicly
utter q vile and covert slander against 50 large
and respectable a class of working women as
those engaged in the several Departments of
the Government and who, as class, will COM
pare favorably in all that makes woman noble,
intelligent. sslf-sacriicin2 and praiseworthy,
with any similar number Of their sex In the
whole nation.
Could greater outrage be committed against
this noble class of ladies than that committed
by this mau-if man he be-Cohen, and would
the community not do him justice hereafter to
hiss him from any public stand where he may
have the impudence to appear aud harangue
his hearers in language both indecent and uu-
truef
Hereafter let him be known as a slanderer
and deiamer, and let all respectable ladies and
gentlemen shun him as unworthy Of that
recognition due man and a gentleman.
The cause Of the workingman cannot but
suffer while such men as Cohen represent it.
