tremes that they are now beginning to
feel the reaction of respectable public
opinion. What is most reprehensible
is for nominally respectable newspapers
to become weak imitators of the
openly vile journals.
Regarding the subject, there are sew.
eral facts that are generally admitted
by thoughtful people. The first is that
the advertising of crime tends to pro-
mote crime. 1t is sowing the wind to
reap the whirlwind. Another fact is
that the force OF an elevated public
sentiment is the only adequate remedy
for the evil, and that legislation with
out the support of such sentiment is
useless. For the promotion of an i'm
proved public sentiment, both individ-
ual and organized effort should be
made.
