A terrible, sickening, horrifying
wave OF crime is sweeping over this
country, more severely felt in the big
cities, and especially felt In New York
where within few weeks nearly l25
women and girls have been assaulted,
strangled. ripped open and mutilated
by human fiends. Little girls from
four to ten pears have been murdered
with such devilish cruelty that the
soul reels to read the revolving details.
1t Is certainly awful to think Of, and
up to the present time there has not
been a successful capture Of single
criminal upon whom the law can
wreak vengeance.
The question arises what shall we
do with tile criminalP That may be a
prominent question now with the
criminal busy daily, nightly. hourly at
his bloody job, but we believe far
more important question is, what
shall we do to prevent crime9 This
country is one Of the greatest criminal
factories on earth. The wealthy cla5s
has been exposed In its dishonest meth.
DDS, and as we predicted at the time
the :tirst gigantic robberies were laid
bare, the exploited class and the de.
generate would take the tip from the
rich rascals and attempt to equal them
or exceed them In crime. In America
where gold Is god, the poor watch the
goings and comings OF the rich with
envious eyes. They try to initiate
them In dress and manner, and having
discovered that there is the most flag
rant dishonesty among the high priests
Of finance In the temple of Mammon,
Is 1t surprising that the poor degener-
ate follows the example Of those he
has been taught to defy?
Go back to the reekiug, putrid
jungle Of the Thaw trial. The sleek,
artistic, famous Stanford White, the
lion Of upper ten society, Turing young
girls to his den OF shame and politely
strangling In them the soul Of virtue
then returning them to their homes
graduates In the elements OF shame
and harlotry. Has not New York's
despisable "Ripper" an eminent ex-
ample for his awful atrocities in this
same White ard men Of his ilk?
Few good mothers would dig up
their outraged, mutilated, murdered
baby girls even II it were possible to
restore them to life, knowing that
they would live life Of dishonor, so
as matter OF fact, IN heart search.
ing alternative, the "Ripper" is not
so much the greater criminal than
the oily tongued traducer.
What shall we do to prevent crimes?
First OF all destroy the chief Of crime
factories, the liquor traffic. As long
as men and women can secure this
fiery liquid which Is a veritable torch
from hell, to set afiame every evil pas.
sion and consume every good impulse,
crime will continue undated. 1t
would be safe wager that the inhu.
man brutes who have drained the
dregs from the cup OF lust In New
York, first drowned their humanity
in liquor, probably the most vile poison
sold as a beverage. The White studio
was supplied with champagne, but
the debasing influence was the same.
This medicine is sure cure for the
most severe attacks OF decency, virtue
and morality.
