This statement was made to report

most repulsive insult by young man
who was loafing around the hotel, had
come to Mr.. Gormon. The man made
a filthy remark when a girl OF excel
lent character passed the building.
This custom of insulting women
has got to STOP" declared Gormon
'If We can't do it by the customary
means we shall adopt the most rigid
measures. There are bunch of fel-
lows who loaf around the Westcott,
coming from good families, and pre-
sumably of good social standing that
use the most insulting and vulgar
language when women are passing. !"
Mr.. Gormon stated that there is q
certain class of young men who con-
slider themselves gentlemen that do
things and say things in the presence
of virtuous girls and women that
criminals of the lowest class would
hesitate to do or say.
These foul-mouthed young men
will certainly be prosecuted to the

New York, Oct. 15.-General Coxey
is in town. the same Coxey who led
the great army of unemployed in a
to the White House at Washington
sixteen years ago and was put in Jail
for it. but who has come back.
The geperal is at the Waldorf AS
toria. He is millionaire. but seems
to feel that he needs more money and
he is at present in New York to try
and get it from the financial district
which he hates with all his soul.
"My ideas haven't changed a bit" he
said today. "Only difference is that l
am not SO lonely in them now. Six
teen years ago I was radical and they
put me in Jail. Now am just an in
surgent. The emergency currency
law put in force last year was a Coxey
idea with the name Aldrich stuck to
it,"
General Coxey, who in private life
is Jacob Schleier Ccxey declares he
is out of politics, but he does not hes
itate to express himself against old
parties.

Roosevelt and Bryan are both
four-iushers,' he said
There must be new and indie
pendent party movement 1t must

won't be enough. can't be a member
of either the democratic or republi-

of grafters.
But there is change coming 1t
will be either evolution or revolution,
and am afraid that the last shall be

Teachers maintain that this stand
