GOOD WOMEN AND BAD.
FRIENDS OF THE CLUE: notice considerable talk
In The NATIONAL tribune about women, some
blaming them for the crimes committed by men,
and others claiming they are not to blame Now,
i think that most of the serious crimes men COM
init are prompted either by avarlce, revenge or
women and am sorry 10 say that those prompted
by women numerous as those due to the
other causes. But this is not ALI Women, also,
are responsible for a ma ority of mems good deeds.
On the one hand we have a mau spurred on by an
uHprincpled woman to some heinous crime; on
the other a man buoyed up ana eiicouIdSeu W 10
right by the loving counsels OF mother %He,
sister or, perhaps, a daughter. There are Dad
women III our world, but SO there are pad men.
Let not man assure himself that woman's intu-
ence is for good vaunt himself that he Is
better eff without her, for without her refining IN
fiuenee he would be brute. so, while we de-
nounce the woman whose pride and ambition sac
riiices mans honor to her ends, let us bow with
reverential love and approval TO the gentle, earnest
woman whose words and deeds are Illan's sweetest
comfort in the hour of trial.-Hobart Z. Scott Wa
tertown, Conn.
THE CHINESE MUST NOT GO.
FRIENDS OF THE CLUB: On the question of the
prohibition of Chinese immigration TO the United
States wish 10 say few words. ii. III. Bronson,
on the affirmative cites as example the recent
outbreak at Rock Springs. Now, the Chinese did
nothing to provoke the white miners to this whole
sale and -blooded murder; they were quiet
and industrious set of people. Hthey can sford to
work cheaper let them do So If they live more
economically let the whites initiate their sober and
industrious habits curail their expenses for beer,
whisky, and tobacco Then they will be able to
compete with the Celestials III wages Who ever
heard of band of Chinese numbering Americans
or driving them out of the Empire? Ii We prohibit
the Chinese from immigrating, then we must pro-
hibit the Germans, the English, the Irish, and ali
other natonalities, and have America for Amerl-
cans" Shall we do this? No. How, then, could
speak of this as being the land OF the free.
While there is room and labor for all, let them
come, obey the laws and labor and live as cheaply
as they choose. Let the murderers of the Chinese
be brought 10 justice, and let their places in the
mines be filed by Chinese laborers.-J. X. Metre
gor, Oakland City, Ind.
THE UNITED STATES A FREE COUNTRY.
FRIENDS OF THE CLUB: Harry Moser takesa very
narrow view when he would prohibit not only the
Chinese but all foreigners from coming to America.
This IS free country, and any foreigner who Will
obey the law and be an industrious, useful citizen
should be allowed to come here. Our own fore
fathers foreigners, and but for the foreigner
America would to-day be wilderness. Harry
Moser las too much Know othlnglsm to prosper
in this country.-Grace c. Lewis Emporia Kan.
FRIENDS OF THE CLUB: Harry Moser should not
put the Caucasian race on footing with the Mongo
liam. The Caucasian or white race settled America,
and to draw the line now would be to declare
against ourselves to forget how oteuben came from
Germany and la Fayette from France to fight the
battles 81 the revolution; to forget the brave Ger
mans and Irish and other patriots from the other
side who fought and died for the Union. Let US
have no Know-Nothing talk in the Club.-Feteran
of 18th III.

woMAN's FoLLIEs AND MANS VICES
FRIENDS OF TIE CLUB: In reply To Homer Corse's
