Foundation-How States
Get Bad Regulations

Such stories as the one recently
published regarding a so-callcd
"White Cap outrage''at Worcester,
this county, are the of bad
regulations being attached to many
sections and States not really de-
serving of them. The following
letter from "A reputable citizen of

matter public in so vile a light

demnation of evey good citizen
To the Editor OF the Ledger.
WORCESTER, Mo-, March 13.-
* * = My wife and another
LADY were out riding the other day
and passed two boys about eleven
and thirteen years of age. They
were rather tough and made a
rough passing remark and went
scarnpering through the woods.
No attack, no one scared, no
threats; nothing but meanness in
small boys. With a few friends l
went to the camp and reported
them to their father, He called
them out and administered a good
flogging and we went our way.
They were not Gypsies, but poor
people of our own race We did
not order them away-the roads
were so bad they could not go.
They made no threats before leav-
ing. The old folks thanked US for
coming, and SAID they tried to
raise their boys right, but had fall
ed. The whole thing amounts to
nothing but an ugly remark from a
rude boy, only eleven years old.
Whoever reported the affair in
such an exaggerated way was far
from telling the truth about the
matter. Truth TELLER.
