STUDYING SOCIAL EVIL.
Medical Profession Must Lead in CRU
SADIE of Regulation.

New York. Feb. 26.-William N. Bald
win. Jr.. chairman of the committee or
fifteen. in an address last Might to
l&"sa number of physicians at the reg
lllar meeting of the medical association,
70 which he had been the guest of homer,
said of the vice situation:
Il came here to be instructed for the
medical projections are '.la ones to lead
in this matter. The committee of fif-
teen, of VIII CHI 1 am a member, are not
Interested in refining on improving indi-
'.dual cases. None of us pose as purists
But We draw the line bet ween a moral
condition and an individuals morals
Every child, rich CIR poor, should have
a chance to grow up decent if it wants
to. Livery family should have IA chance
to be decent. And we mean that they
shall have chance. We have made
much study of the social evil and the
best methods of improving conditions.
I'VE realize that abroad it is felt to
be lmprac ticable to regulate vice. But
you and we do not dare to meet public
sentiment. The layman however, is OF
small Importance. it is medical men
who should lead the way and say what
slculd be DONE Let us face facts. The
social evil exists 1t is our duty to see
that it is kept in proper places and not
where decency is trying to exist. And
Il tenement with fifteen or sixteen good
families IS not the place for it.
Are we afraid to face the condition
and say you shall not oNtaminate the
tenements?
What shall we do with it? l am not
speaking for the committee. Logic has
it that the social evil must tend to par
ocular localities.
n
! permit this we shall have litte hell
| ! would rather see a little hell than a
! big hell
James r. Reynolds of the university
| settlement also spoke on the subject. but
| did not commit himself for or against
| the segreSa ton of vice. He said that in
/ New York the taxation of vice was muc1
! more complete than in Paris, the differ
! ence being in the use of the tax.

Special Correspondence Inter Mountain.
Helena Feb. 2S.-Ever since the legis-
lature convened Mr.. Conrad has re-
ceived two votes for United States sem
ator. Today he heard that one of the
''faithful' was going to desert him, and
accordingly he skirmished around in d
frantic endeavor to keep his senatorial
stock from descending further below
mar, or rather, below zero, for that is
it's status at present. He appealed to
the tender heart of Representative
Wood, and not in vain. Mr.. Wood yield
ed unto the Conrad note Of woe and
gave him a complimentary. Had it not
been for this, Mr.. Frank would have
received 25 votes.
Mr.. Conrad is an elderly gentleman
and should know better. Nothing can
stand long that is ridicued-that is a
maxim descended from antiquity. MIR.
Conrad is being ridiculed-ergo, he can
not long stand. But, just the same. he
can stand for being plentffully ''joshed,"
and deserves his need Of credit for that.
The gains made last week by Mr..
Frank have imbued his supporters with
more confidence than ever, and predic-

CONSOLIDATION PLAN,

A joint concurrent resolution was in
troduced in the senate this afternoon by
Myers of Ravalli, proviting for the con-
solidation of state educati onal institu-
lions. The resolution was passed by the
senate. Representative Stull introduced
the resolution in the house. 1t reads as
follows:
'Whereas under the present methods
of conducting and maintaining the sew
eral educational institutions Of the state
of Montana as separate loca tions great
and unnecessary eXpXense is cntailed
upon the people Of the state; and,
Whereas said institutions could be
more economically maintained if con-
solidated at one or more points and
many thousands of dollars be saved to
the people of Montana; therefore, be i!
Resolved. That the Montana state
board of education he requested author
lied and Instructed to investigate the
ACCESSIBILITY of a consolidation of the
several educational institutions of the
state, so far as is practicable, and if
said state board of education find that
such consolidation is advisable to de-
wise plans for such consolidation, and
report to the eighth legislative assem-
bly, of Montana the result of their in
designations. together with such recon-
mendatiOns as they shall see fit looking
to consolidation of said educational
institutions"

LEGISLATIVE SPARKS,

Since the return of Chaplain Price. Mr..
Baker. the house humorist, has taken
a vacation in the humor line He says
that he will contend with an ordinary
man in the arena of humor under any
circumstances, but when it comes to a
battle with an opponent who is armed
with the sword Of righteousness he pre-
fers to remain "all alone.''
1t is said that the constitution will dis
qualify M. p. Gilchrist from holding the
position of third judge in Silver Bow
county, and over this fact local paper
chortles in glee. Mr.. Gllchrist, however,
remains as fat as ever and smiles the
smile that passeth all understanding.
Among those that have already been
nominated for the high honor-by theil
friends-are the following: Ex-Judge
John Lindsay, ex-Chief Justice w. Y.
Pemberton. j. NJ. Stanton, Ed. Scharni-
kow and p. J. Gilligan. OF course, Mr..
Gilligan is not lawyer, but he probably
knows as much about Blackstone as do
some others.
