The vandals who have defaced
the Dewey arch in New York
should be ferreted out and prose-
cuted to the full extent of the law.
This monomania for destroying
beautiful and costly property for
the satisfaction of selfish pride
should be rewarded with solitary
confinement and hard labor. 1t is
simply an outgrowth of the love of
lucre. The monomaniacs who were
able to attend the celebration are
so puffed up with false pride that
they DESTROY thousands of dollars
worth of property and the labor of
months in order to show to their
relatives and friends that they had
the money to attend the Dewey
reception. They are simply van
dals and the public deserves a
lecOmpense in their penal servitude.
