SORRELLS SAYS
 THEY MUST GO
City Attorney Declares That The Po- lice Must Aid Him in His Efforts
 To Suppress Immoral Houses.

Editor Graphic, City.
 Dear Sjr:-If defining my position On the question of assignation houses in the city of Pine Bluff is a matter Of such interest to your valuable pa- per as will justify the space in it's columns, I would be glad if you would publish this:
 1 An assignation house is a house where the keeper knows that some woman is betraying her husband or some man his wife.
 ?. She is fully cognizant of the fact that some boys sister, some mo- ther's daughter, and very often, some innocent and virtuous girl is being ruined for life. It is a recruiting station for houses of i'll fame-and afterwards a life of misery and in- fanny.
 3. The woman who runs an as- signation house, is murderer of character. They ought to be put in the penitentiary. An open notorious house of prostitution is not one twentieth as bad, because the notor- ious houses of ill repute are we'll known, and young girls cannot be inveigled so easily to enter such mo- torious resorts, but assignation houses are generally in respectable neighborhoods and in the Jseclusion, the opportunity-the darkness of the Iight-the return of the buggy trip, is found that which leads to aband- onment and afterwards life of shame and misery. Ask the unfor- tunate creatures in resorts if this is not true. They have so informed me, and I believe it. that thousands of of young, innocent and virtuous fame through an immoral woman, running in a respectable neighbor- hood, what it is pleased to be called house of assignation.
 4. Pine Bluff is full of these houses and I have made a fight against them. My motive has been explained fully in this letter to your paper. They squat themselves un- der the nose and side by side with de- cent and respectable people, and in decent and respectable neighborhoods, and these people have oft-times beg ged and pleaded to the officers of the county and of the city. for remedy and redress and without avail.
 6. have determined positively that these houses must go, and l have been so much abused and vili- fled, misunderstood and misconstrued ,intentionally most times) that thought perhaps 1t would not be out of place for me through the columns Of your valuable paper to define my position along this line. You un- derstand that in these troublesome times of ours" and in the sour and sordid conditions of the era in which we live. every man almost placing

here by the war department officials.
but there Will be strong pressure
brought from the guardsmen in the
states TO have the measure go through.
The regular army is short Of Off
GERS. For that reason the militia or
CARNATIONS are not receiving proper
attention. 1t is a vital matter, army
officers say, and the remedy lies with
Congress.
Despite the loud proclamations Of
certain newspapers in the country
said an officer of the United States
signal corps today, the airship is not
yet an engine Of war that should
cause any government uneasiness- As
it is at present, there is not an airship
that is reliable. Whether the ma
chimes will fly or not is problematicai;
in the majority of cases the operators
have to wait for favorable weather.
Then again, you can hear them, their
puzzing and clanking motors, long
before you see them. This is a dead
give-away and a thing that makes
them useless for night attacks. Should
an airship hover over q hostile vessel
the dropping of a bomb on the deck
would result in no danger at all, GuES
are not needed. Good Old-fashiOncd
fireworks, the skyrOcket that used TO
be known before the safe and sane
Fourth of July celebration came into
being, Will afford ample protection.
Should dirigibles threaten to at
tack fleet or an encamnmenT. sky
rockets, which, when they reach their
height in the air, would explode AMI
throw off burning guncOtton and other
intlammables, will be sure protectors.
If there be dirigibles overhead, the
chances Of instant death to the dirigi-
Bile operator and crew, if any, are ex-
cellent If the enemy is using a heav-
ler-than-air machine, a silyrocket ex-
ploded near il would cause such a con-
cussiOn in the air as to destroy the
equilibrium of the craft, while the ex-
plosion would injure if not blind the
operator and crew, and q quick tum-
bic would be the end.
Skyrockets are cheap. They will
make an effective defense against air
ships OF all kinds in warfare. War
viii surely try out their effectiveness. .
