1 TOT the houses occupied by these
poor women, who have no home, and
to whom money is the only recon-
pense for life Of misery, for in most
cases that is what 1t is, as frequent
suicides, and early deaths will testi-
fly. These conditions are a shame to
our proud position as a civilized ma
ton. Pay us so much money and We
will allow you to break our laws
with discretion Is said to the women.
Pay us 80 much money, and obtain
1t however you please, SO that you
keep apart from our PURE SOCIE-
TY. But the man must be protected,
his name must be concealed who So
Der, half intoxicated or wholly drunk
frequents these places, and on the
succeeding day insinuates his foul
presence where true innocent girls,
or trusting wives, receive him, all
unconscious of wrong or betrayal.
Everyone knows that these things
are true. Everyone knows how our
laws protect the few at the expense
of the many.
Why-should the man who finds
pleasurable companions with women
of the border side of life at night,
whether white or colored, and who
gives, or allows to be inveigled from
him, ten or hundred dollars, as the
case may be, be concealed and as
sisted as he creeps shame faced and
| cowardly to the authorities to dis
cover II there be not some way in
which he may get his money back.
Is there any real man who does not
feel like saying, 1.-THE cowardly pol
trOon," even il he does not breathe
it aloud. I'd be man enough at least
to be my own protector and stand
my own disgrace in silence
Why-should officers of the law,
paid to protect honesty and merit, as
well as society in general, consider
1t meritorious thing to intimidate
the poor women into giving up the
money they have obtained at such
cost, and waste time beonging to the
city in aiding men of such type in
conceaing their identity that others
may be endangered morally and ply
sically by their association.
Why-do we not consider these
things in the light of reason and JUS
tice?
Why? Why? Why?
If we had few more judges like
Golden Rule Jones of Toledo, Ohio,
society would be safer and justice
more frequently administered. For
example. at one time a woman OF
shadow-land was brought before him
charged by popular and influential
citizen with having taken his watch
~ her rooms the previous night
Looking sternly at this respected
citizen Jones said "Sir, fine you
ten dollars for being in disorderly
house. As for YOU" turning to the
woman. "go and sin some more"
l do not countenance immortality
in man or woman, but l do think
the need is great for more careful
consideration Of these topics II we
would preserve our homes and our
health as nation. Less servility to
form and custom. more regard for
purity and honesty in social life
equal treatment of the sexes and,
above all, justice In its true sense.

New Orleans, Oct. 31.-Cotton ex-

securing ready cash to export cotton,
thereby lending relief to export and
domestic exchange markets and to the
movement of the cotton crop. This
plan contemplates calling upon Euro
pean consumers of cotton to buy in
this country by dsp0siting with Euro
pean fiscal agents of the United States
government such funds as buyers de.
sired to apply the purchase Of cotton.
Ii is believed tEat through the treas

credited to the subtreasury at New
Orleans which will enable American
exporters to draw against actual eur.

It is conceded that every man, of high

It would seem that Colonel Price is
detected not so much by his disinclina-

pleasure over the popularity of Con-

of the district and is an ardent cham
pion OF Wilkinson.
