The Socialist meeting at the Windsor
Theatre on the Bowery last night was
attended by over Il thousand people.

in their u]tteranCes. Think said one
of them, ''of eighty thousand working
people, desperate with hunger and fran
tic with suffering, and the State doing
nothing. If something Is not immcdi-
ately done for the unemployed, they will
do something for themselves
The State IL the people, and the peo-
pie are doing very much for the uncm-
ployed w~orkingmen of the city n the
w~orkingmen are doing much for them

tive and nobler than 1t Is Mt this time,
inc the authorities, both OF the state
n the city, are seeking to hasten on
those public works that will give en-
ployment to the idle. Never hav the
honest toilers shown more strikingly
that they are deserving of the sympathy
n aid of their feilow-mcn than during
this Winter of suffering, by their patient
endurance and their respect for law and
order.
The agitators who seek to incite them
to lawlessness and violence are their
worst enemies. They eXaggeratc the
evils, bad enough without cXaggcration,

to back up their inccndiary teachings 10y

Height Of Woman's Ambition.

A PeddIer without a Pull.

To the Editor:
As I walked through the Bowery last night I
saw a poor old man peddling some candy. All Of
a sudden a boy came along and grabbed a box
OF candy and ran away. While the poor old man
was trying to catch that boy another one came
up and grabbed another box. To my sorrow hs
was quicker than l., or l would have laid my hands
on him. As 1t happened, One OF the Finest
came along and the poor man told him his story.
Instead OF catching either OF the boys he gave
the basket a kick and split the rest OF the stock
into the mud. Isn't 1t an outrage that We have
such people on the force! LOUIS HALPERT,
