one AND ONE MAKE rwo

It sometimes Inconvenience a newspaper
to tell the truth. but when it Results 1 n pub
lie benefit neither trouble nor expense
should weigh against the good accomplished.
On Wednesday The Times defeated a libel
suit brought by one Ajax Griffith, - who
claimed that his character had been de-
famed TO the eXteut of $50 900. The YER
dict Of the jury justified the publication,
aud showed that Griffith had no character
TO defame. Yesterday another suit for
$50 900 was instituted by the New Alex
andria Improvement Company as means
OF notifying the public that the statement
made by The Times concerning the imprac-
ficabHity Of trying to make New Alexandria
a manufacturing town, was false and with
out foundation.
New Alexandria is not far from Wash
ington. and those interested can satisfy
themselves as TO the truthfulness of The
Times statement. The town is really too
dead TO be Injured by a newspaper lubIi-
cation, and just where the libel comes in
will be difficult for the company TO esuab-
nsb. The only object The Times had in
mentioning the project at all was 10 pro-
tect innocent purchasers from the celu-
sive advertising of speculaton. The re-
suit OF this libel suit Will b. similar TO the
one brought by Griffith.
1t might as well be understood by all
who attempt to prey on the public uat
sooner or later The Times viii expose
their buccaueering practices. As a pub
lie servant it is the duty Of every news
paper to protect its readers from schemes
that DO not give adequate returns Tor the
Investment, and in pursuing this policy The
Times viii not shrink from that duty.

The active efforts of the bond syndicate
to turn gold into the Treasury in return
for currency must be accepted as evil
dence that there will be 10 more bond
sales. The only way that this country
can be kept out of the hands of the silver
party is to prevent another bond issue
and allow business to increase without
being retarded by further financial agi-
tation. President Gle veland and his
banker friends evidently recognize this
fact and are acting accordingly.
The Washington times., 1895-05-17

Midst all the excitement and contention
concerning jackson City, the outlaw
track and other iniquities the public should
not forget that cheaper gas is of great
Importance and that signatures to the
gas coupon are necessary to petition
Congress. Send them in and when Congress
meets an extraordinary effort will be made
for an iIluminator at less cost.

A HoRRIBLE STATE OF AFFAIRs.

A HORRIBLE STATE OLE AFFA IRIS.
The practice Of sending young boys, as
detailed in our news columns, TO dissolute
houses at all times of day aud night where
their minds are poisoned by contact with all
that is vile and bad is too revolving To con-
template. 1t is SO shocking that every
parent aud every person Interested in the
coming generation will unite in demand
ing its reformation. 1t is so wicked, SO
horrible that those who knowingly allow
such crime against humanity to exist are
responsible for more than they eau possibly
make atonement.
The messenger boys of this city range in
age from ten TO sixteen years. They are
bright, Intelligent and active, and seek
this service TO earn a modest stipend
Some OF them are sons OF WIDOWS, who use
the wages of their boys to assist in main
tanning the household. Others belong to
families Of Industrious mechanics, and
all are loved and loving youths just beyond
the age Of childhood. Without being eX-
posed to the communicating Influence of
social vices they would develop Into
manly men, but when allowed TO tread
the ways OF those who live in gii,ied sin
there can be but one ending to their lives,
but Que result OF this demoralizing temp
tation-a debauched mep tality and
bestialized nature.
This assertion is not overdrawn. The
messenger boys whose duties lead them
into the gates of perdition are not capable
Of realizing the enormity of their position.
Their minds are young, unframed, and,
sponge-Iike, absorb evil without being
capable of distinguishing its demoralizing
effects. Unconsciously, innocently, they
developed sinful. traits Of character with.
out having had opportunity to grow into
useful manhood. Can there be a greater
crime than to subject them to such fate?
The Times earnestly appeals to the
public TO come to the rescue of these
boys 1t is not their fault, nor can their
parents be blamed for the unfortunate,
ruinous service that gives them employ
ment. They are too young to judge right
from wrong, and their parents are no
doubt ignorant of the deteriorating duties
demanded of their sons. The publication
to-day in The Times of this sad condition
will give them warning, and unless the
managers OF the messenger service dis
continue the practice of sending these ir
responsible boys OF such errands a public
| protest should be filed with the Commits
sioners and the messenger calls ordered
| out OF the disreputable houses.

increase in the supply would be secured
which would meet all the necessities of
the District for the next twenty-five years.
There should be nostint iusupplying water
to a community. 1t has been coutended by
eminent sociologists that ii ought to be as
plentiful and as free as the air, because it is
equally necessary to the health, comfort and
life of man. Opinions may differ as
to the proposition to furnish water
absolutely no charge whatever is made for
absolutely no charge whatever is made for
it. Everybody, however, will agree that
the city's supply should be so ample that
none, neither private consumer nor
business man, nor manufacturers, need be
stinted in the use of it.
Up with the dam and down with the
meters would seem to be the proper battle
cry in this instance.
