On the side OF Good we find right

Evil there are ignorance, superstition,
intemperance, misery and selfshness.
The individual who rubs against the
destructive forces and overcomes them

Of the conscience grows weaker
Now, some people argue that certain

While men are trying to eradicate
graft and protected vice from New
York. Philadelphia and other great
cities the example Of Virginia Brooks,
Of West Hammond, Ind, should not be
overlooked
Miss Brooks is only a girl in her
twentes, who inherited property in
West Hammond. At the time she was
a resident Of Chicago. In looking after
her inheritance she discovered that the
assessment was very high and went to
see about it, She was soon on the
trail Of graft. The 5000 inhabitants Of
the town are nearly all poor people,
most Of whom have an imperfect
knowledge OF English and the grafters
found them easy marks. Practically
single handed and alone, the girl be-
gan to Investigate and soon found that
thousands Of dollars were being taken
annually from the taxpayers. Vice and
gambling were protected and fouTished
on the main streets, The town was
overrun by saloons; the white slave
traffic was in full force. and generally
the place was not only wide open,
but the bosses were Teaping the profits.
Girl Elects Reform Mayor.
Miss Brooks made her @te, trip to
West Hammond only ataa year ago,
and yet recently, through Ter efforts. a
reform mayor and Alderman were
elected and a vigorous attempt = going
forward to clean up the town. Through
letters to the Chicago papers and by
other means this young girl has gone
forward in attask that many strong
men would have hesitated to undertake.
Best Of all, she is winning out We
