and this city of churches 4
tives have to be employed in stores
to. watch the vast throng Of buyers
and shoppers as it is a we'll known
fact that 10 almost every community
there are men and women who win
steal, not because they need the
goods stolen but because such per-
sons are not employed, have moth
ing to do, hence the devil has use
for such unemployed persons, who
steal, lie, deceive and rob whenever
they find a chance as they suppose.
Then we have the lying stock
brokers who deal in wind, they offer
nothing OF value, nothing to be cx-
amined or handled, but you say y0n
lbuy stock, you don't do any such
thing, you bet, wager, gamble on
the quotations Of advertised stock
lyou receive nothing fromthe broker,
only his word, but he takes good
care to take his toll out Of the
amount you put up in his hands.
And when you call to find out if YOU
won or lost, you will often times be
informed that what you bet on has
declined. and in order to keep in the
game you must advance, say, $1,000.
If you refuse all is lost ami you are
a fool and deserve your fate. The
broker smiles and says try again.
l will advise you when there is some
show of certainty in winning. Then
you borrow from your best friend;
you lie to him in order to get money
to gamble again. If in a bank you
rob the bank. If trusted clerk
you deceive, lie and rob your en-
ployer, your best friend You try
again, but lose again; then you are
desperate, you endeavor to drown
your sorrow with rum, and lewd
women, but you find no rest until
you land in Jail. All such people
as you, both male and female,
should have had guardian APP
pointed over you and your affairs
for life. Then we have another
class of persons who are sworn Of
ficials, such as conduct elections,
and their name is legion. They
stuff ballot boxes, lie, cheat, deceive,
and do any thing to enable their
party to win. This class of per-
sons are the worst class on the face
of the earth. They have no regard
for Almighty God; none for the
devil, as they do not believe in any
religion or churchgoers. They are
perjurers, always ready to do the
bidding of their friends, bosses and
employers. All this is now car
ried on in Philadelphia, is done in
a measure that a number of per-
sons who are in acertain ring called
reformers, can get pay as witnesses,
detectives, lawyers and such. Well
suppose fifty or a hundred of these
perjured scoundrels are convicted
and imprisoned. What good will it
do? why none, for at the next cleo
ton hundreds of just such charac-
tiers will be employed to take their
places. Education improves society
and in a great measure the morals
of great community but at the
same time quite number of black
sheep is let loose. How are We going
to improve this state Of affairs.
One way suggest is this: every
person employed be paid what he
or she is worth for day, week or
a year. And above all don't take
the hard earnings of the masses,
who own little property which is
assessed often times Is or SO per
cent. more than it would sell at
public sale in order that a tax for
city, tax for county and tax for
water, be collected in order to paw
politicians and bosses fifty
per cent. more than they earn in
the six hours they sit in their Of
ices, waiting for you working men
to come forward and hand over the
tax, tax, tax, tax. These persons
are your servants and were SO
elected or appointed to wait on the
public. 1t is strange to me that the
better informed people in this city,
and they are in large majority,
will allow themselves to be hood
winked, deceived and trodden un-
der foot by afew hard-hearted, self
ssh Revealed Office holders. But
it is Of no use to growl, but 20 with
he crowd. l have often thought
that no doubt people from China,
Japan, Persia, Turkey and other
heather countries visit this great
Christian country and become ac-
luainted with the manners, Gus
IONS and our mode Of living. Then
when they return to their countries.
their homes, no doubt they deliver
ectures to their people or by some
means inform their people how we
i've. They can say that our mcr-
chants are compelled to employ de.
.ectives in stores, banks, hotels and
.tc., to watch the thieves, male and
emale. Tell about the great num-
Der Of divorces, abortonists, pick
drunkards, gamblers, sui
tides and murders by the hundreds
