4 Woman S Influence.

The Times published about TWO
weeks ago an editorial headed
Cruelty to Men" It was written
after day when the papers readers
were shivering in heated street cars,
scurrying along the street muffied TO
their eyes, anG watching the Their
mometer, with anxious looks toward
the coal bin.
On that same day hundreds OF their
fellow-men stood at the front OF the
street cars. hardly considered by the
passengers shivering inside, their
hands and feet numb with intense
cold, their eyelashes stiff, and their
boards frozen to their coat collars
They suffered enough from the cold.
But they suffered more from the dTty-
ing snow and icy wind which cut into
their faces every minute they were on
duty
The editorial was designed to
suggest this TO the readers of The
Times. 1t pointed out that in other
cities street car companies were re-
quired TO equip their cars with YES
tibules for the protection of the
motorn,en. And it emphasized the
fact thai while much talk was heard
of cruelty to animals, this cruelty to
men toEi1ng arduously for their daily
bread went on unnotieed-
Scores of thousands read that state
ment of the motorman's case. 1t is
Impossible that anyone who read it
could have read it indifferently. But
there was one reader-not a man, but
q woman-whose heart was so closely
allied to her energy that, on being
told of the suffering these workmen
endure, she brought to bear all the
influence At her hand, great or small,
to accomplish some practical relief.
She was young woman and school
teacher So her time was limited, and
in her own Judgment, her influence
was probably not very great.
Yet, this one girl has given direc-
ton TO current of popular sympathy
which cannot fail to help these men
She first enlisted her brother and q
girl friend Then, in the odd mo-
ments of two days, she obtained In
dorsements of the editorial-4o0 Oh
more.
The list was published yesterday
1t includes the names of clergymen
Government clerks, lawyers, physi
clans, merchants, the Assistant Score
tory of State great commercial com
panies, women who stay at home, ant
street car patrons Of every other class
Il is a company of extraordinary in
fuence 1t is powerful enough It
force any public corporation to gran
any reasonable demand And it wa
brought together by a woman.
The Times and its readers will no
forget how this one girl transforms
inactive. unproductive sympathy int
a practical force. Neither will thes
motornen forget it. Other clerks, an
merchants. and professional men, VIII
are in earnest. will not wait TO ad
their influence to that of their fel
lows by enrolling themselves on tn
same side The Times and the motor
men will go on fighting for Legislation
to right the wrong by law. But
may easily happen, if the railroa
companies are convinced of tn
earnestness of their patrons, that tn
law may find vestibules already bull
and the motormen already protected.
