She is Mortified at Scenes She Witnesses
Among the Poor.
NEW YORK, Feb. 4-Nellie BLY, has
become a socialist. Nellie has been sent
to report so many strikes and has wit
messed so many scenes of misery and
poverty of late, that the horror of it all
has impressed her wildly. In yester-
days letter in the New York World she
says:
II have spent a day among the strikers
in Brooklyn, and l am more than ever
convinced that something is wrong, not
in Denmark, but in the United States,
the land of the free and the home of the
brave.
81 am not striker; l am not capital
list; but l believe in justice, and say
that when a sober, INDUSTRIOUS saving
man has worked for twenty-three years
for one company, and in that time has
not been permitted to know the differ
ence between Sunday and any other day
in the week, and whose only vacation has
been ore solitary day in the year, losing
that day wages that he might spend the
hours uninterruptedly with his wife and
children, and still this man, sober. in
dustrious and saving, has only been
able to earn enough to maintain the
plainest life, devoid of everything except
the most pressing necessities-then, re-
peat, there is something woefully wrong
in the whole system of Thugs.
"As l have said, l spent the day with
the strikers, and it was proftably spent.
It is one thing to see men in their uni
forms as conductors and motormen,
under the stern pressure of harshest rule,
and another to meet them in their homes
and in the dress that makes all men
alike"

in which the Brooklyn strikers live is
