on the Bella Union and the other Infamous
dens. He was sure that the Chief OF Police
was in accord with the movement. lie then
went on to denounce the action OF the Board
of Supervisors in dallying and hestatlng as
they did in passing upon The amendmeht 10
the license order. There was no reason
why that honorable body should hesitate
about such vital matter.
The folio wing letter was received by the
committee of fifty yesterday:
To the Chairman Of the Peoples Mdss-meet-
ina. Metropolitan Temple, for the Suppression
Of D5aes-SIR: VIII YOU please be kind enough
10 read this communication at The meeting 10 Oe
held on the 18th inst While am healt and
soul I'm favor Of closing the dives, allow me TO
ask THE MORNING CALL, who commenced II,
and you reverend &c ntlenen, VINO look IL up 50
vigorously and who, / hope, Will make success
OF IT, what are you going 10 90 WIN all lhe poor
unfortunate women and girls whe are now max
ing 4 living thereinP Gentlemen, l ask this
question on the grounds that we now have girls
aud also men falling down on the sidewalks ex-
hausted for lack of the Reeessarles OF life, after
having travelled the city over an6 over seeking
employment and unable to fnd IL. Does any one
here to-day know what IL is TO be hungry
/ hope not and also hope that they never Will.
Why is this city in such condition. The ques-
ton is easily answered. When THE MORNING
CALL. the only respectable paper in our city,
and which represents all fairly and honestly,
informs US that there are between five and six
thousand Chinamen and Japs doing household
work which our white women and girls should
aud ought 10 be doing, is II any wonder that
women and girls are forced into such places
rather than staTYe on the streets? There are
hundreds OF people who attend these meetings
who are earnest in assisting TO close the dives
who employ either Chinaman or Jap TO do
their work. Is IL, therefore, any wonder that
women and girls are forced Into such places, nd
that is where our sons are TO be found and so
the dives live and flourish. l hope TIE
MORNING CALL, whom we have 10 de-
fend US for a starter In everything.
will commence crusade against every family
and every person IN this city who employs them
until the last one IS gone. / hope you reverend
gentler9en VIII assist he CALL In this as well
as IN the closing OF The dives, and that shall be
able 10 hear Esther Montgomery say as lie sald
last Sunday, that he came forward Hol 10 speak.
but as a mOurner at the funeral OF every China
man and Jap IN this city who has been doing
white wOmen's work. / hope the committee Of
fifty, which was named last Sunday,
while putting into effect resolution then
adopted. Will also prepare and distribute ciTcu-
lars among those employing Cinnamon and JapS
demanding their discharge, aud report 10 The
those who Will and VIII not comply with the de-
mand. Mr.. Chairman, II you fail 10 do this and
continue 10 close dives, how SAD the condition Of
San Francisco VIII be. No bread, no butter.
Contemplate the result Speedy action is ne
cessary This is written by one in favor Of clos
