PLANS FIRE PREVENTION FIGHT.
American society Formed for Ma.
ttOnwidc Campaign.

The American Society for Fire I'rovon-
ton. formed for the purpose OF carry.
ing on an aggressive and militant cam
paign for fire prevention and to carry this
campaign into all parts OF the United
States" was organized yesterday at Il
meeting held at 81 Chambers street
The society after electing officers TO
serve for year. issued "A statement that
calls for a widespread campaign and also
depOrcs a condition OF conflicting laws
and officials which hinder tho work Of
proper fire prevention.
1.-The city of New York is conspicuous
example of these conditions" runs the
statement. THE State Department OF
Labor. the State Fire Marshal the Tcne-
ment House Department, the Fire Depart
ment, the Health Department. the De
partment OF Water Supply, Gas and Flee
tricity and the Building bureaus. are each
empowered by State laws, the Greater
New York Charter or city ordinances with
the enforcement OF statutes and regula-
tons.
"In many cases they have the right to
make regulations of their own, and, with
each working from an entirely different
standpoint, disorder has resulted"
The society believes that with an an
nual national fire loss of more than $780,
900, 900 in actual cash. fire prevention ''is
now the most vital subject before the
American public" Three quarters OF the
losses, says tho society, are du" to non
compliance with or lack of enforcement
OF simple principles of fire prevention.

THE VICE PROBLEM

Editor Day Book:-We read a great
deal these days about the Kidding
Chicago of vice, which, of course, is
not uncommon when we remember
how often this has been achieved be-
fore. Some years back we herded
these unfortunate women of the
streets together and deported them
penniless to towns near the outskirts
Of our city. Here these women, I'M
able to secure employment, soon
drifted back to the old profession.
This, of course, could not be long en-

LETTERS TO EDITOR
FARWELL'S GOOD POINTS

Editor Day Book:-l have noticed
quite a number of articles in your
paper in regard to Arthur Burrage
Farwen. viii you please allow me
to quote to you some of his redeem
ing qualities?
First, he is a poor man as far as
the wealth of the realm is concerned.
The largest item he pays taxes on is
a piano.
Second, no one is turned away from
his office without help of some kind,
and let me tell you right here that
he gets stung by the "bo" your paper
seems to make such terrific efforts
to uplift.
Third, he has no high-salaried Off
GERS or investigators in his Office,
although they receive living wage.
Fourth and last, he is a Christian
gentleman (of course, he has his
faults, and one is that he won't fight
back, an American citizen, raised a
family of five, four beautiful girls and
one boy, who worked his way through
college by peeling potatoes, so his
father says, and is now a professor in
a Southern college, and he believes as
you do in making all conditions the
best for all workers and along that
line also argues that it is far more
satisfactory to save a girl or boy be-
fore he or she falls, than after.

resident made it his business to know:
that of his neighbours. And when
the so-caIled respectable element be-
came afflicted with venereal diseases
it spread like wildfire, undoubtedly
because they were so respectable.
Well, the towns people soon got
good radiance of their undesirables,
as did Chicago, by deportation. HaV-
ing received no invitation from other
cities they, of course, gradually again
fiocked to Chicago, spreading broad
cast over the entire city, but this
time mingIing with the better ele-
ment, here and there to make new
acquaintances, more associates and
gain new recruits. And then people
wondered why vice was on the in
crease. How often have they been
driven in this city from one locality
to another? And this, here in the
twentieth century, in a so-called civ.
ilized world, is our method of solv-
ing the vice problem.
But there is still another class Of
prostitutes we read nothing about

far more objectionable than the wo-
man of the streets. l refer to the
woman who sells herself not for an
hour or two because of economic
necessity, but for lifetime to duke,
a nobleman, for a title, for wealth
and for luxuries, marriages wherein
love never enters.
l often wonder as to whether our
dual standard of morality is not also
responsible for blighting the path to
reformation of our unfortunate wo-
men. 1t has often been repeated that
with every fallen woman there is also
a fallen man, but have yet to hear
a sane reason why such man should
be received in so-called swell society.
and the woman made an outcast.

way of solving the vice problem. To-

PINKHAM' 'SCHOICE.
FOR u. S. MARSHAL.
Dark Horse the McCarn En-.
try in Race for JOB, Accord
ina to Persistent Rumor
US. DISTRICT ATTORNEY
RETICENT IN THE MATTER
Fight for Hendry's Office Gives
Promise of Being Up to the
Bourbon Standard

Governor Pinkham has suggested
the name of former Senator Palmer
p. Woods for United States marshal.
In letter addressed to Jeff McCarn,
the United States district attorney, he
tenders the name of Mr.. Woods as a
suitable Democrat to succeed e. r.
Hendry, incumbent.
But notwithstanding the suggestion
of the governor, there is a growing
rumor that dark horse" is to be
sprung by Mr.. McCarn for the job On
this subject the district attorney pre-
serves the closest reticence. He re-
fused to state this morning whether
he Is or Ia not in favor of Mr.. Woods
for the place, or whether he has any
other man In view for the position, or
when he will take some action in rec
ommending the successor of Marshal
Hendry.
Mr.. McCarn, In replying to the let
ter of the governor in which the name
of Mr.. Woods is suggested, is non
committal. He merely says that he
will give the chief executives recon-
mendations every consideration, and
lets it go at that.
The governor stated this morning
that he considers it within the prov.
ince of the district attorney to send
in the name of his choice for the
successor of Hendry, but that he be-
lieyes the chief executive has the right
to recommend to the district attorney
the name of man he favors for the
place.
The fight for the marshalship prom
ises to be as warm as previous and
current fights for jobs under the new
administration. 1t bids to be more
than a three-cornered contest of
candidates. Hendry has strong back
ing, it is said, for reappointment, and
]. J. Smiddy. former road overseer
of the city and county, has the ter
ritorial central committees endorse
ment for the job. Palmer Woods is
backed by the governor. Who is the
dark horse?"
While Mr.. McCarn does not state
that there is or will be a dark horse"
his careful reticence and the little he
does say on the subject seem to sup
port the rumor that so far unherald-
ed candidate for the place will win
out
There is nothing wish to say now
on the subject" stated Mr.. McCarn
this morning.
Are you in favor of the appoint
ment of Mr.. Woods?"
Il don't wish to say now,'' he re-
piled.
And he made similar answer when
asked If he was opposed to Mr.. Woods.
