Grimes Against Women

The Chicago Inter Ocean recently con-
tanned a record of the crimes against wo-
men that had been perpetrated during
the first three weeks of August in the
United States, as far as the writer was
able to gather them from the public
prints. The cases cited did not incluGe
mere shootingS. beatlrgs, or other bru-
%alities in which sex was rot the lmpor-
tant features of the crimes. The list
contained particulars of forty such as
saults, in which sixteen of the victims
were children. Fifteen other instances
Of the seduction of young girls were
cited, the circumstances being such as to
make the crime even more shameful and
damaging to the girls than as if force
had been used As the writer in the
Ittc,- Ocean noted. these were only a
small proportion of the crimes that were
actually committed, since there were
many made public which were not
brought to his notice, and many more
which were hidden from public gaze by
the terrified and shrinking sufferers.
1t has been the boast of Americans
heretofore that a woman vas safer from
l,Sult and outrage in this than any other
country but unless an adequate and dc
terrent punishment be meted out to
these ravishers promptly and unfailingly,
it will Soon not be safe for any woman to
be far out of sight and hearing of her
lawful protectors. Philadelphia Record.
