prostitution and is increasingly encour-
aged by our artificial modes of life. FASH
ion demands so many gratciations that
young men of mature age fear to marry.
We would not advocate imprudent mar
riages. but at the same time we would
urge marriage as duty on all who can
embrace 1T. 1t is only through an honor
able love that man can live a full and
manly life. IL is only by a natural union
both man and woman can rise to the full
height OF their moral stature.
Above all, before any great good can be
wrought parents must interest themse Ives
more fully to enlighten their children in
sexual matters, and to open their eyes to
the pitfalls that surround them. Thous-
ands of girls budding into womanhood
would never have been seduced and driv-
en- to prostitution if their own mothers
had only taught them what seduction
meant if they had only instructed them
in all that relates to marriage and ma
ternity; if they had properly guarded
them against the practices of profession
al seducers. And thousands of boys would
have been spared physical and mental life
misery if their fathers had rightly warned
them against secret practices and how to
''flee youthful lusts. 1t is the natural
and imperative duty of every father and
mother to do this on behalf of their chill

profit by il. They Should also impress

| SANTA BARBARA SUMMERERS

| SANTA BARBARA. Aug. 3l.-The
phenomenal rapidity with whicn this
old California town is passing from a
quiet abode to lively seaside resort is a
! surprising thing to those acquainted
with the easy. going chara cter of its resi-
, dents. This season witnesses transfor-
nation of the Channel City that amazes
the proverbial mossbsck, who is unao-
customed to keeping pace in the march
of enlightenment and progress. Costly
i'm mprovements and tho development of
new industries are announced daily.
r. b. Fithian, formerly a capitalist of
New York but now resident OF this
county. has purchased valuable property
in block oil. and will soon begin the
construction OF fine 4story brick bull
ding on State street.
j. Goldstone of San Francisco is visit
ing in this city. He noticed the fact that
there are scarcely any empty houses
here, and forthwith decided to erect four
, cottages on his corner lot in block 1913.
Santa Barbara wins the first neat in the
contest for the Raymond hotol, which
for the coming winter at least will be To-
Gated here, as Walter Raymond, the great
excursionist OF Boston, has leased the San
Marcos. Heretofore this city has not
been included III the route travelled by
the numerous excursions annually man
aged by Raymond & Whitcomb, and
there fore this fortunate deal will do Won
ders toward increasing the popularity of
our seaside resort. Preparations are
already being made to widely advertise
the city OF flowers in the east, and Mr..
n. S. Mullan has been engaged as man
ager OF the San Marcos. The gentleman
named is hotel man of experience.
The asph alt mines are under successful
operation and furnish work TO a large
complement of men. At La Patera rs
tons of asphaltum are turned out weekly.
while at Carpinteria 200 tons of refined
material are produced each week.

tress with such legal rights as will enable
her to bring public infamy upon her de-
serter by so amending the bastardy laws
that no man, through any circumstances
whatever, shall be legally absolved from
the duty of providing for his natural
children, not by a miserable half-a- crown
week, but IN Just and proper manner"
If seduction itself were held as prima
facie evidence of promise of marriage
there would not be many deserters,
and the ranks of PROSTITUTION would
speedily be thinned. At present with the
exception of the criminal amendment
law, on behalf of young girls. it is the
seducer whom the law protects, the Sc
duced who is deprived of protection.
With regard to those who hire prostitutes,
some check upon their profligacy might
be devised. Such degraded use of wo-
men is as offense against public morals
and public polity and is therefore a mat
ter with which the state has a right TO
deal5without pre- judice to personal liberty.
We deny that prostitutes are necessary
and that men cannot be continent. Physi-
cal exercise-work or athletic sports-will
always subdue sensual desire ald healthy
and moral habits of thought will always
prevent it. But if men choose to live
idle and voluptuous lives to inhame their
imagination with sexual thoughts and
their bodies with luxuries and stimu-
lants their passions will be difficult to
control and to such prostitution NAV ap-
pear necessary. If the law treated them
as ''rogues and vagabonds," their habits

They cannot escape these. Therefore does
it oehoove us, as co-workers with God. to
.void all kinds of moral and physical con-
tamination, and to regard ourselves as
His everlasting temples. Could we view
truth clearly, with eyes unclouded by
prejudice. then those organs and func-
rions which are held in least esteem
might appear the most important and sa-
cred. The stone which the builders re-
jected'' would become the foundation of
the social editice. Perchance in the first
ages Of Phallic worship its votarles recog-
nized this. And whether old or young,
married or single, let all who love their
country and value it's honor. strive to
wipe out this fodl blot of prostitution
from their land and race. Let them
strivs to repress the worship of ignoble
customs which tolerate or advance it,
Let them endeavor to revive the chival-
rous habits of respect for women, and of
aiding the weak and the oppressed. Let
them remember the mothers who bore
them, and the sisters who were the play
mates Of their innocent childhood. And
as they would take the ruftian by
the throat who should dare to insult
OF degrade their beloved ones, SO let
them do whatever men can do for
the purity Of these other mothers and
sisters.

STRAIGHT TRUTHS
ON THE SOCIAL EVIL QUESTION, ITS
CAUSES AND CURE
BY TENNESSEE c. CLAFLlN

We have many evils in our midst but
that especial vice which in common with
other nations touches us most vitaliy is
the one which we affect to ignore. We
smut our eyes to its presence. we close our
ears TO its recital. Yet ser ious. wise and
good men, moved by the sincerest pa
triotism and the highest motives, have
from time to time endeavored to draw ma
tional attention to its existence and its
dangers. Its evilsfall upon both sexes,
butsmost heaviuly'upon women. 1t seems,
therefore, a subject worthy of general con-
Bideration.
Mr.. Acton, in his great work, the result
of years of patient investigation, wrote !:
"It is impossible to exaggerate the suffer-
ings entailed by life of prostitution. In
stead of the scorn so freely lavished on
the poor lost daug ghters of shame an
misery. I pleadifor little pity-nsy, for
more than pity-I plead for Justice. If
unequal laws between man and woman
compel to shameful and hated trade
the helpless and shuddering victim of
seduction whose fall, though it has
stained, has not utterly polluted her
charge those laws with cruelty, and | say
further, that her blood is on the head of
those who know the injustice of such
laws, vet will not help to alter them"
The number of spinsters above Is in
this countIy-England-i about 5000, =
600 and gthe illegitimate tables show
that at least about one in every twelve OF
these lapses from virtue. Thus we know
there are about $50. 900 unmarried women
Of lost chastity from whom the great army
Of prostitutes is constantly recruited. But
this is not all. Defective habits, love OF
6nery and poverty also add to the num-
ber. So that, on a modest computation,
We may assume that the public and priv
ate prostitutes IN London alone cannot
be less than 40, 900, and this would not in
elude those who occasionally, but not
habituaIly, practice mercenary immor-
atty. In 1852 5000 illegitimate infants
were registered.
Mr.. Acton says, II should imagine if
cases of seduction -bastardy not brought
to light though non-registration, unfruit-
fulness, mlscarriaees and abortions could
be calculated, their mum bers would be as
three to one of those From time to
time various attempts have been made to
suppress or regulate the social evil. not
