Technically speaking" concludes Mr..
Paine, ''thc ass oCiatcd charities of Boston
have never given a ooller for relief. In
emergency cases we put sufferers in the
way OF receiving aid from private or other
sourccs, but the most important work with
Us is to discover how families may be
placed on their feet SO that they may not
need relief in the future The art of
making friendly visits is a great power,
and after an atom OF brain in advising
those in distress what TO do is worth more
than anything else. 1t rcScues the poor
from habitual pauperiSm.
There is in Eoston what might be called

viduals, WHO have come to be popularity

those who are not So well off is something

the rights of respectable liquor dealers,
will have no tolerance for the keepers
of low, vicious or unlawful resorts
If the non-partisan ticket shall be
elected, the inhabitants of this city
may expect with some confidence that
the dive evil will be suppressed, and
that other forms of vice will not be
allowed to flourish with the brazen
effrontery now witnessed in certain
districts in the city. But If a partisan
ticket shall be elected. there is no
reasonable assurance that any marked
change for the better will take place.
The wives, mothers and sisters of this
city should reflect upon this phase of
the political power and responsibility
resting upon them.

TO WIVES, MOTHERS AND SISTERS

The chief incentive that impelled the
business men who have inaugurated
the Citizens Reform movement TO the
action they have taken, was a desire
to reduce the burdens OF taxation. This
purpose necessarily involves the cor
rection Of many abuses that more par
ticularly concern the finances of the
city, and appeals with special force to
the male voters. for they are usually
the payers Of the taxes
But the reform movement contem.
plates wider scope that this. and the
curtailment of other evils than those Of
heavy taxes and financial extravu-
gance. 1t looks to the suppression of
vice In various forms, which Of late
years has increased alarmingly in this
city. There are within the corporate
limits a number OF dives and gambling
dens, which are traps OF destruction
for the youth, and for the existence of
which no possible Justification can be
urged. Some of them are in the CEN
trail part Of town and some are in the
outskirts. In them boys and young
men come in close contact with the
vicious Of both sexes. and the harm
and Decentralization that result cannot
be estimated
Experience In this and almost all
other American cities has proven that
such breeding places Of vice generally
flourish under partisan rule. The rea-
son Is this: The business OF running
them is lucrative, and otherwise at
tractive to a certain class of men.
This class is nearly always active in
ward politics. At primaries and CON
yentlons they place candidates under
pledges or other obligations that pre-
vent the latter, after election, from en-
forcing the law. or adopting suitable
measures Tor suppresslng vice. Mem
bers of the city council. officials and
members Of the police department, the
city attorneys office, and other mem
beers OF the city government are very
likely to have strings Of this sort upon
them. They are very likely to be ham
pered ia their official action by oblIga-
tons or friendships due to persons who
are engaged In disreputable kinds of
business. Indeed, It Is part of the
business Of a dive-keepcT 10 maintain a
sufficiently potent influence" over GER
tain city officials, to prevent his voca-
ton from being interfered with.
Sometimes this Influence" is the result
Of cash payments, but more frequent
ly, perhaps, it springs from political
debts.
Long experience has demonstrated
that where rank partlsanism prevails
in city government, the dive flour
ishes; but where the people come to-
gcther regardless OF party lines and
choose for office men who have no
partisan ties nor obligations 10 hamper
their actlon, purer social atmosphere
is brought to pass. The history OF
