MIR. MARTIN, rector of the Episcopal
church, made a good point in his SER
mon last Sunday when he spoke sar-
castically OF the action of modern mu-
inequalities in srresting drunken men
and such characters for disturbing
the peace" while the resl disturbers
Of the peace are perm tied to go free
The real disturbers of the peace are
the keepers of gambling dens and
disorderly houses OF every sort-not
the man who is led into the evil way
because these places are thrust into his
path and made to administer to all his
bssest instincts. The HERALD does
not propose to undertake to advise
individuals rs to what they ought or
ought not to do in their daily lives. II
they are doing wrong, they are to
answer for it. II it is desired to reach
them and give them lift toward bet
ter living, that is the province of the
churches and the workers in the moral
crusade. 1t is not the province Of the
newspaper. This refers, however,
to individuals in their capa-
ual is free, but freedom ends where
trespass against ones neighbor
begins. We say that the dens of inn
morality are public enemies, and
should be treated as such. So in all
cases of wrong doing we are inclined
to 90 back of the immediate offender
who is sentenced in the courts, to the
real criminal who induced him
to sin The drunksrd is a
moral weakling. The man who made
him to sin Is n moral pervert. The
latter Is the cause Of disease, the for
mer is the victim. We pity the wo-
man who falls into sin. We sbhor the
man who drew her down. a contem-
porary takes US sharply to task for
calling attention to these things, urg-
ing us to come out and take the place
OF the public prosecutor. We have

is our duty to let mothers, for
instance, know that their young boys
and girls are in danger, il, as we be-
lieve, their apathy proceeds from
ignorance. 1t is not our duty to print
In the paper the names of those who
have gone wrong. No, our words are
not directed against the unfortunate
who is suffering beyond ex-
preston already, but rather
against the breeders of crime,
with whom the city government is in
lesgue-we are not prepared to say by
collision, but certainly by silent &C
quiescence. And let 1t be understood
that we do not demand the impossible.
We fully recognize conditions as they

to Judge as 10 the morality or immor-
slity OF the occupations under consider
alton. That, again, is out OF the
province of the newspaper, and the
question is one each man must decide
for himself. But public gaming is IL
legal, and keeping disorderly houses is
illegal. The collecting of monthly
"fines" by the police from these people,
with no provision for the suppression of
the evil, is illegal. 1t is enforcement
OF law that we ask for now-the statute
law of the state of Texas, not abstract,
not theoretical, but plainly written.
The mayor violates his oath of office
every day that he permits these things

a GERMAN scientist has discovered
how to make eggs artificislly. Thus is
one of the most rigidly organized trades
unions in the world threatened with
destruction. The hens have never be-
fore had to meet serious competition,
and they have established their own
rules for day work. The artificial egg
won't hatch out, so to perpetuste their
kind and make chickens for potpie the
hens will still be of use. 1t will be q
sharp contest, but we bet on the hen.

MUNICIPAL ownership of valuable
franchises may theoretically be right
and advisable. But until cities learn to
transact the commonest business af-
fairs of daily life without incompetency
or corruption, it is best to leave the
greater responsibilities to private COM
panies. But these private corporations
doing the public's business ought to be
under rigid control and subject to min
ute inspection.

A CITY ordinance provides that no

THE HERALD is not now condemning
the men who carry on these illegal
businesses. Like men in other occupa-

state that saloons are not illegal.
They are recognized by law just as 9TH

licensed. Moreover, we do not propose
