EVERYBODY with an ouncc Of
sense knows that bawdy HOUSES
SKIS! in our city. not one, two
three, but score or more. These
houses were never SO numerous ia
Wilmington until Mr.. Gibboney's
agents drove them out OF Philadel-
phla. when many located III our
city. The raid made on Tue sday
night on the proprietresses OF these
houses is the same old story over
again. The mad ames and inmates,
numbering some 70 persons. were
marched to Inc city about midnight
and required to give bail for their
appearance at the Municipal court
on Wednesday morning, when Judge
Cochran fined them the usual fine
imposed in such cases. and then
set them free to 60 and ply their
vocation at the same places.
Do these raids lessen the evil Of
these women which the agents of
the baw and Order Society profess
to stamp out' If the evil could be
stamped out. then there would
some good come of them. These
sham reform movements are spas
modic, they come anu 60 and the
world goes on in the same old Jog.
These raids have not stamped these
houses Of prostitution out OF Will
mington. The fact remains wheth-
er you wish to admit it or not. there
