Increasing.

The TraIhc In YOUNG Girls In EmGIand
Increasing.
The Pail Mall Gazette devotes five pages
of its space to showing that the trade in
young girls for immoral purposes has in
creased alarmingly. 1t claims that the
growth in this traffic is due to the utter
worthlesness of the law in relation to the
matter. The names of several wealthy
men holding prominent positions in society
are mentioned in connection with the bust
ness. The Gazette states that it yet has de-
tails of a large number of other cases,
which were omitted owing to lack of space,
but that they will be given to the public in
the course of a few days.

perpetual harassing of the poor and leaving
the well-to-do alone. The City Solicitor
and his friends are towards. Let them
fight US if they dare. We challenge prose-

The Pale of the Law.
The editor of the Pal Mall Gazette said
that the exposure had not been made with
out careful advice from learned iurists in
regard to every detail, and that he kept
not only within the pale of the law, but far
within the bounds which natural and hon
est indignation would have prescribed. As
to the law he knew he was justified, and as
to public opinion he feared nothing, for he
was backed by the highest and best in the
land, including Cardinal Manning, the Earl
Of Shaftsbury and other eminent men of all
denominations.
