Degenerate American Aristocracy


The Independent has frequently
called attention to the degeneracy of
the aristacracy and the disreputable
daily press of the large cities that adj
vertises and fosters the shameful prac-
tees. The National Rip Saw calls at
tentiOn to the same subject in it's April
issue and handles it with commendable
|vigor. The Rip Saw says:
In HearSt's Sunday Chicago Ameri-
can of February 5, there was a great
write-up in the society column about
the wedding of Miss Elizabeth Walton
of Chicago, who married Benjamin
Marshall of the same place.
Now we want to quote some of this
sickening, nasty, abhorrent "twaddle'
about the nakedness of this bride,
which follows:
She had certainly the most beauti-
full neck and shoulders, and this is
not my opinion only, as have the en-
dorsement of the white house, which
ought to be convincing, to say nothing
of numerous and divers matrons and
envious maidens, who have heaved and
sighed, and wished they could wear
decollete gowns like Miss Walton.
while Miss Walton was at Wash
ington, D. c., she attended an evening
reception at the white house, and
everybody wanted an introduction TO
the Chicago girl with the lovely Shout
ders,' as they were pronounced the
most beautiful of any in the room.
Everybody who had not seen those
shoulders, wished that it was the style
for bride to wear low neck gowns,
but Miss Walton did the next best
thing at her wedding last Wednesday
evening, and wore a thin lace bodice,
and through the transparent meshes
of this yoke, her dimpled shoulders
cleaned in manner truly to the sat
isfaction of the guests
For the love of John Henry Johnson,
is it possible that the guests who at
tended Miss Walton's wedding, went
there to behold her nakedness?
Now we do not know thing about
Miss Elizabeth Walton. but we do
know that if one of our daughters
were to marry, and the newspapers
could not say anything more about
her, than they could say about a plump
heifer calf, or wellfed clay-bank filly
that we would get SO Internal mad
that we would have sixty-eight fits, one
right after another.
This article in Hearst's Chicago
American occupied nearly a full col
umn, and the majority of this "drivel'
was devoted to the naked anatomy of
this bride.
We would feel very bad indeed to
know that one of our daughters could
not perform some womanly act, that
would call forth commentator from
her friends, unless she exposed her
person to the lustful gaze of a lustful
herd of lustful devils.
The independent. [volume] (Lincoln, Neb.) 1902-1907, 1905-03-30

Let us repeat again a paragraph
from this nasty "write-up":
Through the transparent meshes
Of this yoke the dimpled shoulders of
alabaster wilderness cleaned, in a
manner fully satisfactory to the
guests"
All, young women, you who have
been guilty of this immodest, unlady.
like performance, in the name of God
and in the name of common sense, and
in the name of common decency, never
be guilty of the like again, as it is the
eye of lust that you please, and not
the heart of manhood

"yerndon & Small, Bankers" was
the sign over the oldest and what was
considered the stanehest bank in the
western part of the state, the same
being situated at Poolsville. The bank
had been in existence for thirty years,
had weathered all panies, and depos-
itors believed it TO be as sound as the
government treasury itself.
For a quarter Of century the bank
was conservative. coafSng itself to
safe investments and taking no risks.
Then Small died, and his son William
succeeded him. William was thirty
years old and had made money In
speculation. yerndon had come to be
considerably over fifty and was infiu-
enced by the younger partner to take
thought of. Inside of two years the
bank was practically bankrupt. Dur
Ing the last year there was not week
when it was safe from complete wreck.
1t did business only on its record.
When the partners came to realize
that any day might precipitate the
crisis each began to prepare for it. In
these preparations they did not take
each other into confidence. In fact,
they did their best to deceive one an
other
A man from Chicago who was talk
ing little trip over the country for the
benefit of his health stopped at Pools
vile and the bank one day to get some
money changed. He looked about him
and saw that a couple of enterprising
burglars would have little trouble IN
making haul He hung around for a
day, making a few notes, and then
went back to Chicago for his tools of
trade and his friend Mike.

posting with old time confidence, and

AS the pinchers were about to close on
Mr.. Verndon's ear he explained that he
wished to amend his explanation. He
had thought Of going on a little jour
ney and had come down TO the bank
to provide himself with money.
"You blamed old robberr' Kissed Mr.
Small In his partners ear
Don't get excited" cautioned Bur-
glar Bill. Il win now take your some
what prominent nose between the Jaws
of the pinchers and see what effect a
gentle squeeze or two will have"
The effect was all that a burglar
could hope for Mr.. Small also amend
ed his explanation. He, too. contem-
plated little journey and wanted the
cold cash to pay expenses.
"You miserable thieves. Kissed the
cashier at both partners.
"Your turn now" remarked Bill as
he reached the end of the line. Speak

"Spunky, eli? Well, let's see. I'll
take fat piece of your cheek in the

The cashier was game, but he had to
sit In and acknowledge that he had
been anticipating trip to Europe.
"a nice state of affairsm said Bur
glar Bill as he sat down facing the
trio. Your kind are always railing
about my kind, and you enter into
combinations to make us trouble, and
here you are to rob the public and
each other. Mike, we ought to feel
like Sunday school children beside
such men as these"
More of the pinchers might make
them see the error Of their ways" re-
piled Mike.

money.

three went home. Next morning a
whole state was astounded by news
Of a great bank robbery. The robbers
had made clean sweep, and the
bank of Verndon & Small must close
its doors. Mike and Bill could have
told tale but Chicago men, and
especially Chicago burglars, realize
that silence Is golden. Besides, they
were too busy preparing for their trip
