That Hearst. the greatest sensational 81
| of the age, was publishing every day
! dozens of issues of his various papers.
! In face of all these facts it has remained
| for a man who is almost a total stranger
| to New York but who speaks as from the
| intimate knowledge of lifetime, 10 make
! a statement which reeks with faisehoou
| and is entitled to no credit whatever, save
| such as would be given TO any other gross
! " exaggerated partisan campaign STORY
! published on the word OF hired sia i I1Ts
! In the columns of a undertaking ana nIth-

The whole thing shows not alone the
| length to which such publishers VIII 60.

| descend in the last days of bitter po-

rccted against both the womanhood and
manhood Oh the g gefea+ HbiCh the inra

ments of our citizenship will visit on the
selfish and unscruplous defamers OF this

Judge Gaynor coptented himself with

language, calling him a political and
| racial bieot" He referred to "ChrisIy
Sullivan, who is running for Sheriff on the

QUESTION OF A NAME
In fact, the article is one of the dirty
kind, which I have invariably founG 10
have been written by some dirty fellow
whose own morals are below par Inns
writer calls himself George klobe IuT-
ner." I do not know him or OF mn NM 30 pu II
name that does such things! NO pam
John Pearson or William Murphy ever
knows all these refnements OF VlclouShess;
This writer is plainly mere poullca.
and racial bigot. 1t sticks out in almost
every line. He has the traits or lghoranSte,
superficiality, recklessness anu lT[eslSt tar
acteristics of the Hearst writer's anu
which people have got on to at last What
a grand article could be written on the
subject instead of this miserable trash!
II is sadly evident that this muck writer
with SUCH a pretty name has never read'
for instance, what st. Augustine says on
tho subject in his DE Ordine." or Mr..
Iecky in the famous fifth chapter of his
European Morals or Professor Lily, In
the fourth chapter of his First Principles
i'm Politics. He is just a vulgar. bigoted
fellow, trying to make political capital out
of the fact that there is female prostitu-
ton in the city OF New York, as there is
everywhere in the world.
The fact is, as every one knows who has
read or travelled. that the city OF New
York is the most decorouS of the large
cities of the world with the lowest per-
centage of vice of any of them And yet
there are impure minded political and race
bigots whose delight is to lie about and
Islander New York in this respect and in
others. They are detestable lot, and l
hope for an opportunity to make them
shut up or get out.
SEES RACIAL BIGOTRY
This writer shows the mean bigotry that
fills his soul. He does not scruple to lay
race I believe that | am as familiar
with the inbred and innate virtuOus wOm-
anhood of the Jewish race here as is any
man, and | say that this man is malicious
" untruthful of Jewish WOmanhOod and
manhood from the time we get the first
glimpse OF il in the very twilight of his
tory or at that border line where fable
scarcely ceases and history hardly begins,
down to date He also casts the same re-
nrOaeh on the Irish race here Nor does
the purity of the women of that pure peo-
pie need any defence against bigOts.
seashore of Ireland this summer with in
finite mOdesty and almost unconscious of
world need TO be defended from the charge
of being in the traffic of women. Out with
scoundrels who make such a charge!
II so happens that there is now running
for office in the Borough Of Manhattan on
the Tammany ticket tfor that is where
the Tammany organization. so called, eX-
ists) a man who with his brother. now
dead. went down into a much talked of
district in Manhattan and with number
of good Catholic. Jewish and Protestant
ministers cleaned il UP. without any men
ton being made Of them or their work.
while nOtorietY seeking big6tS We're
screaming and OBTAINING. but not giving
the work a hands turn and not word OF
commentator is he getting or seeking for
it, God bless such people as they. There
are certain vices we can ameliorate. lessen
