attention Of the people OF this city and
State the necessity OF the authorities
providing better protection for our
defenceless women while travelling
through the rural districts. Without
police, constables or detectives I'm the
rural districts It is not TO be wondered
at that men become bold, and the only
surprising thing IS that they do not
commit more crimes. The women have
no one to look to when forced to pass
through a lonely section Of the coun-
try and this condition should not be
allowed TO exist any longer. Rural
police Of some kind should be estab-
lished. Their presence would have a
restraining effect on any one crlmi-
nally bent, and the very fact that such
officers were likely to come across
them in the midst Of their deviltry
would cause them to think long and
seriously before attempting any Of the
crimes that are now becoming so fire.

BRYAN's SUPPORTER.

GOLONEL BRYAN'S program for the gov
- ernment ownership of railroads has one
supporter and probably in an unexpected source
The New York Press, the Republican newspaper
with the largest circulation of any Republican
papeti the country, says:
Mr.. Bryans radcalism in his railway pro-
gram is precisely the radicalism of publicly
managed post office 1t terrihes no one to-
day but the enormously wealthy owner of
monopoles. 1t will gain supporters as the
number of failures at regulating the privately
owned railroad highways ncrease-as they
will.
The trouble with Bryan is that he has played
bad politics. He is too far ahead of the times on
the government ownership of railroads question

such cases occur in other States there
are rewards offered for the arrest Of
