FLAGRANT CRIMES AND PUBLIC
NOTORIETY.

The REV. DIR. HoRATIo STEBBINs TELLS WHY HE
WILL Nor SPEAK To-MoRRow NIGHT.
To the Editor of the San Francisco Cdl-SIR
My attention was called to notice on Tuesday
morning that a mass-meeting would be held on
Friday evening, the 22d inst, to consider the
hagrant crime too base to mention that has
been committed, the supposed perpetrators of
which are now in the hands of the police.
Among Others my name was given as of one
who would address the meeting In q former
notice, believe, it was understood that none
but women would be present. In THE CALL of
Tuesday morning 1T is announced that "both
sexes will be represented in the audience ana
on the platform
With sincere respect for all good citizens and
for their honorable and upright intentions,
propriety and becoming regard for the COM
mittee who have invited me to be present
allow and, maybe, req uire that 1 should give
some reason for my dissent
In such meeting, for such cause, little or
nothing can be done to increase the force of
public or private morals, or for the detection
and punishment OF crime. What be dis
cussed in a popular assembly concerning so
brutal crime? Can anything be done, save
to give notoriety to human degradation and
wickedness, such as should be concealed from
every man, woman and child? Can it help the
police or excite their vigilance? The police
know that the detection OF crime is commonly
a 'still hunt" and the less noise the betterl
besides, the very important fact that there are
many thfngs-suspicions, Puesses and gypsy
tricks. of which 1.-The public knows nothing.
The insinuation that such degradation is the
outcome of the common school" deserves no
attention, and to give it attention only gives 1t
an Importance which otherwise it would not
have One of the most sorrowfpl things of So
ciety is the number of those who have no
home or none of that care, authority and
obedience that makes home citadel of protec-
ton and peace. In this sorrowful fact old
wickedness and young sins hold their carnival,
PROGRESSES play their deyilish arts, and chat
tering fiends tend the fires of hell. But home
life, security and manners are not established
by public discussion OF the details of revolving
crime. HoRATIo STEBBINs

GLORY FOR Los ANGELES AND
THE CALL"
Los Angeles Times.

From time to time this journal has been
making comparative showings of the Sunday
advertising carried by the three morning
newspapers of San Francisco and by the Times,
to the decided disadvantage of the former. We
now show, in the following statement, a COM
parison for an entire week, which gives evil
dence that this paper printed more columns of
advertising every day-columns of equal
length and width - than any OF the great
papers of the metropolis, and that the Times
contained over 90 per cent as much adyertis-
ing for the week as all three San Francisco
papers combined:
