MEAYER's MISTAKE.

Generally the zeal of reformers
work their own disaster and destroy
the effects of the good deeds they
have done. AS an instance of tins
take the action Of Mayor Weaver, Of
Philadelphia, in his wholesale raid
ing Of the tcnderloin district. The
press Of that city heartily ana even
Enthusiastically supported him in
the reforms he brought about in
municipal affairs until he began
that spectacular raiding and now
they have turned on him with the
Kisses of serpents mot that they are
opposed to social correction but be-
cause of his inhuman methods. One
paper in Philadelphia, which has
been one of his. most ardent supports
ers, has this to say of the raid:
'sWhen the net was cast for such
an extensive haul there should have
been adequate advance preparation
for humane treatment. 1t is dis
graceful to parade the shame OF
abandoned women and horrible If,
perchance, innocent women are IN
volved with the guilty. = :"
Some of the poor creatures received
treatment that savored of brutality.
and the law, itself, is a brutality
that Furnishes the weaker and the
more defenseless woman sinner with
heavier punishment than that in
flicted on the equally shameless but
stronger man sinner.
E'While the hundreds of women
were compelled to stand for hours or
to stretch themselves upon the floors
'hcrded like cattle in the narrow cor,
ridors of the City Hall, breathing
loathesome air, without food and
allowed but little water, as tho
Philadelphia Record describes it, the
men arrested in the raids were al
lowed to go free on payment of fines
of So or on their personal recognize
ance to appear and answer. The
entire proceedings were disgraceful
to humanity, and disgracGful because
there was no necessity for the drastic
performance of the Mayor and his
-rnew cabinet.
"Raiding women reforms no
women the fallen women not ex-
copied, works to no greater rover
encc for the law nor for greater pur-
ity of Iife-and all the moro 50 when
as in the Philadelphia case, the men
were allowed to 90 free, while the
victims of their passions were no:
only held without bail. but held in
quarters crowded to suffocation, ana
not allowed the necessarics of life
nor even the decencics. There was
no necessity for the raid. If Mayor
Weaver believed he could eradicate
the social evil by arrests, the records
of his Health Bureau showed the
number Of each and every house
raidcd, and the arrests could have
been made in detail and without the
shocking spectacle of many humid
reds of unfortunate and abandoned
women paraded through the streets
of the city"
