Poverty in philadelphia.
Correspondence of The journal.

Correspondence of The Journal
PHILADELPHIA, PA Jan. %, 1897. The
stories which come to you from this city as
to the poverty prevailing here are too we'll
authenticated to be denied. The Philadel-
phia Press is newspaper not at all given to
sensationalism and it says in this morning s
issue: "Peopie are begging for bread all
over the city. This is the hardest winter we
have had, as there IS no work we can get for
the men," The industrial life of our people
has indeed fallen to low condition when
small storekeepers, who d few years ago
owned their homes and had little money
in the bank, and skilled work ingmen, thou
sands of them in our large cities, are now
compelled to accept aid. People ask me
nearly every day, what is the trouble with
the government anyway? And reply, that
for one, believe the chief cause of our pow
erty is the attempt to establish in this gov
ernment revenue policy which mas ever
kept England's working classes on the
verge of starvation. And then [ think the
men who have money to invest prefer to
wait until Mckinley takes up his residence
/ in the White House before entering into
new engagements.
Then again, the cost of the rum traffic to
our people every year is something appal-
ling. Its cost would pay the national debt
in one year. The enormous amount OF
money SQuandered for drink each year, if
spent for necessaries of life, would give en-
ployment to $4,000 more men--an indus
trial army 200 miles long. l stated every
where in my addresses in Maine last fall
during the campaign that if the dram shops
We're closed and kept closed for ten years
every financial and economic question now
agtating the public mind would be far on
| the road to settlement, if not so completely
/ adjusted as to require no further public dis
| cussion.
The great party of Lincoln, of Sumner and
of Blaine has a mighty responsibility rest
ing upon its shoulders, and may God help it
| to 80 legislate as to set the army of unem-
ployed to work once again for wife, children
and home. F. W. GowEN.
