lDIENESS CAUSE OF: CRIME

IDLENESS CAUSE OF: CRIME
Doubtless there are many causes
that contribute to the creation OF crime
and CT criminals. 1t appears that idle
ness may be the most prolific OF all
causes in creating criminals, and for
the increase Of crime.
Bishop Duane has said that there
are two kinds of people IN this world
workers and idlers. There also are
two kinds of iders--those who cannot
get work and those who do not want
work; or, in other words, those who
would gladly work if they could, and
those who are resolved that they will
not work no matter what their oppor-
tunities Ter work may be.
Those who are compelled t. be idle
are a class who are not as easily led
into criminal life as are those who
are idle from choice. But habltual
idleness of any class of persons and
especially of the young often leads
swiftly to crime, With all its assoc!a
ticas, evil company, evil places, evil
habits, late hours on the streets and
in the saloons and desertion of home,
The Chicago barn murderers had
entered upon life of idleness before
they became criminals. They were
wanderers over the city; they were
1oungers, loafers, idlers. OF course
they came swiftly to whore want star
ed them in the face. If they remain ut
idlers there was no other possible
resort but to crime. Now II must be
evident that if these young men hal
been Industrious, if they had been will
ularly. and had so worked. at some
useful and honorable employment, ev-
en- at moderate wages. they would
have never been guilty of the crimes
charged against them What is true

FORAKER HOT.

The relations between President
Roosevelt and Senator Joseph Benson
Foraker, heretofore excessively friend
ly, are becoming strained. Senator
Foraker suspec's that he is being made
a victim Of double dealing. Senator
Foraker is now impatiently waiting fer
the president to fulfill certain demands
which have been maze upcn him in
connection with the pending fight IN
Ohio and his future course will de-
pend upon what the president does.
Foraker is still engaged in planning
and organizing a campaign to control
the forthcoming Ohio state convention
in the interest OF the president. me
presidents personal newspaper organs
all cver the country have stated that
the Ohio fight was over, that Foraker
had abandoned It, and that the pfesl-
dent had consented to Hanna 5 naming
the Ohio delegates.
Last Friday Foraker went to the
White House and asked the president
point blank if he had Withdrawn his
name and the prestige of the admins
tration from those Republicans in
Ohio who desire to make fght Tor
Roosevelt delegates. The senator had
been informed by telegraph while III
n bat tho and
knowing that his correspondent was
reliable and usually accurate, he be
| lieved what the dispatch said. The
president denied the accuracy CT the
dispatch and assured the senator that
he was as much in favor of battle
with Hanna in Ohio as he has ever
| been.
Theleupon Foraked presented GER
tain demands, which included appoint
| ments for fifteen or twenty desirable
| federal offices in Ohis. that are now
occupied by holdOveS. The president
assured the senator that he would give
| this matter his earnest attention and
indicated, in a manner that was entire
the patronage would be at the senator's
disposal.
Foraker explained to newspaper cor
respondents after leaving the White
II use that his interview With the
president was satisfactory and that he
had no doubt that the president woG.l
back up his attempt to prevent the
election of a delegation from Chic that
was hostile to himself That night the
ASS ociated Press sent a MESA sc
broadcast to the newspapers of the
country to the effect that Senator Fer
aker would abandon his fight in Ohio.
Six or eight correspondents, who re-
eeive much of their political inspira
ton direct from he White House,
sent out stories of similar import.
1t was taken f. granted by per-
sons familiar with sources Of news in
Washington that that particular bit of
news came direct from the president. |
Foraker's friends jumped at the con- |
clusion when they heard of it and Il
was obvious that the senator himseI.

Grace Of Eastern Women.

Passing us occasionally, going 20 Je-
rusalem with butter and eggs and little
Jars of leben that showed their thick
creamy tliroats as they were held up tn
us, were small companies OF women in
single file. As one blue procession
went by. the leader called to us:
"Why should you ride and we walk?
Why is your lot better than ours?"
Given the opportunity for leisurely
argument we could not by any philos-
ophy have made satisfactory answer.
We could only admit the fact ss they
saw it, and recognize the universal
world-plalnt of discomfort.
They carry themselves, these women,
like figures on an antique frieze. AS
they stride along, holding in sure bal
lance on their heads their jars and bas-
kets of homely produce, they tread the
stony paths with the grace and large
ness of action that we OF the Occident
have grown to regard as belonging only
to the age Of Praxiteles.
The men are also admirable in the
simplicity of their gestures, the big
lines of their attitudes, the swing OF
their draperies. / saw a youth fling

BEWARE BOHEMIA!

Esperance Goodlove contributes to
the New Idea Woman's Magazine for
January an article or "The Etiquette
Of the Business Woman" in which she
"boils down" her code of conduct into
the laconc advice, "Be reticent, and
work" Incidentally she remarks:
II was once inclined toward an affect
ion for that vague style Of life some
timos called Bohemian L went into
a business office, remained there two
or three years, and-loathe the name
Bohemia! We'll knowing that many
readers win shout with laughter at
what am going TO say. that they will
lay my advice to prudishness rather
than digested experience, hereby
state that business wcman's dignity
suffers if she accepts any favors from
men she knows in her office, unless
those favors are coupled with socIa
recognition from the family of the mar
who gives them" Here isa rsdica
statement which may surprise the in

which will no doubt cause some
thought.
