WANT JAIL FOR DISORDERLY
HOUSE KEEPERS

Jail for the keeper of a disorderly
house and protection in an institu-
ton for the unfortunate girl is the
solution of the white slave traffic, &C
cording to a report submitted to the
health committee by the corporation
counsePs Office.
All observers agree that the fine
system is indefensible, said the re-
port of Corporation Counsel Beck
with.
ct operates to take money from
persons already helpless, and to keep
them in the power of persons who
live by their earnings.
Under the present system commit
ment can in no event be for more
than a period of six months and can
always be avoided by the payment
of a fine, which can never exceed
5000.
"The proposed enactment also in
creases the punishment for keeping
a house of prostitution so that the
person found guilty may be fined as
high as $1,000 or may be committed
to Jail from one day to one year.

but every member is expected to work

Marvellous Trained Animals.

1t is seldom that such an oppor-
tunity as that offered by the combina-
ton of Gollmar Bros. America S
Greatest Shows with Herr Driesbock's
entire collection of wonderfully
trained wild animals is afforded of
seeing two big shows for one price
of admission
Herr Driesbock's marvelously
plants, lions bears, etc., are now
being exhibited as part of the circus
program. In large steel arena
which is erected on an elevated stage
between No. and No. 2 rings,
Miss Marguerite Driesbock, a beauti-
full little lady of seventeen, presents
a thrilling and sensational exhibition
with seven ferociOus fOrest-bred lions.
Another act of the famous Driesbock
collection is the troupe of perform
ing Siberian bears and Russian wolf
hounds in the same arena at the
same time In addition to the Dries
book collection of animals, Gollmar
Bros. are presenting their own mag
nificent menagerie, including Lotus,
the finest and largest hippopotamus
in captivity. Emory Styles, Super
intendent of Gollmar Brothers big
menagerie is presenting, in ring No.
l of the circus this year, Gollmar
Brothers famous $4,000 herd of
performing elephants. This is con-
coded to be the best trained herd of
elephants ever exhibited. At the
same time in ring No. the Dries
book performing elephants are ex-
hibited by Mr.. Ed. CORTLAND.
Gollmar Bros. have always enjoyed
the reputation of having the finest
horses of any show in the country;
for this season they have added a
great many head to their already long
string. In the Gollmar Brothers
stables are to be found some of the
very finest specimens of Norman and
Percheron draft horses. While
among the ring stock are many
thoroughbred race horses of unblem-
ished pedigree. The entire show is
transported on long trains of double
length cars, with regulation Pullman
sleepers for the accommodation of
the performers and attaches. The
coming of the big united shows is
heralded by a corps of SO trained
men who do the advertising, and a
body of skilled agents who make all
the necessary preliminary arrange
ments for the coming of the big
shows. These men travel in their
own special advertising cars, which
travel one. two and three weeks
ahead of the big shows.

form Of borrowing, whether for long
periods or for short, there is the same
objection. These arc not the cir
cumstonces; this is, at this particular
moment and in this particular ext
gency, not the market to borrow
large sums of money. What we are
seeking is to ease and assist every
financial transaction, not to add "a
single additional embarrassment to
the situation.
Reliance on People.
"The people of this country are
both intelligent and profoundly pa
triotic. They are ready to meet the
present conditions in the right way
and to support the Government with
generous self-denial. They know and
understand and will be intolerant
only of those who dodge RESPONSE
bility or are not frank with them.
making. We had no part in making
it. But it is here. 1t affects us as
directly and palpably almost as if we
were participants in the circumstan-
ces which gave rise to it. We must
accept the inevitable with calm judg-
ment and unruffled spirits like men
accustomed to deal with the unex-
pected, habituated to take care of
themselves, masters of their own af-
fairs and their own fortunes. We
shall pay the bill, though we did not
deliberately incur it.
''In order to meet every demand
on the Treasury without delay, and
in order to keep that Treasury un-
questfonably strong throughout the
present anxieties, respectfully urge
that an additional revenue of $780,
100000 be raised through internal
taxes devised in your wisdom to meet
the emergency. The only suggestion
l take the liberty of making is that
such sources of revenue be chosen as
will begin to yield at once and yield
with certain and constant flow.
II cannot close without expressing
the confidence with which approach
Congress-, with regard to this or any
other matter, which has shown so un-
firing devotion to public duty, which
has responded to the needs of the
nation throughout long season
despite inevitable fatigue and per-
sonal sacrifice and so large a pro-
portion of whose members have de-
voted their whole time and energy to
the business of the country

these, although there are number
of other factors, Republican party
disaffection, Bull Moose strength,
ETC., which will undoubtedly play a
part.
And the result is expected to be
felt not only in Congressional cleo
tons, Tut in state elections. Demo-
cratic success in the nation has made
Democratic strength in the states.
This will be a big factor in Iowa,
aside from the strength given the
ticket by the commanding person
atty of John T. Hamilton and the
unpopularity of Gov. Clarke, due to
the charges of incapacity and extrav-
agance brought against his admins
tratiOn.
There has been no charge of in
capacity brought against the national
administration. On the other hand
the emergencies which have arisen
since President Wilson and the DEM
ocratic Congress went into power
have given opportunity for striking
display of administrative and legis-
lative craftsmanship.
Even the New York Herald, which
has been a consistent critic of the ad-
ministration, was moved to say
editorially in recent issue:
Fortunately we have at the head
of the government at this tine q man
in whose calmness and judgmen we
have as great confidence Is we have
in his patriotism"
The New York World says no more
expressions of contempt are heard
for the Presidents idealism. 1t adds:
'In the light of the worldwide
catastrophe of the last ten days the
most blatant lingo in the United
States would not exchange Woodrow
Wilson for any European statesman.
1t is very fine to prattle about
'vivorous foreign policy but con-
science and sincerity and integrity
have their place in government des-
pite the Metternich legend that still
controls European chancellories.
There was plenty of vigorous foreign
policy in Berlin, in Vienna and st.
Petersburg; but there was none of
the good faith and common honesty
that has shown through the diplo-
macy of Washington. To the his
torian of fifty years hence the fact
that Woodrow Wilson was president
in this crisis may seem no less prov
idential than the fact that Abraham
Lincoln was president when the very
life of the union was hanging in the
balance"
The New York Evening Post sees
in the war crisis an evidence of the
efficiency of the Washington govern
ment 1t says:
Whatever of evil the war of ma
tons may have brought upon us
Americans, the country is indebted
to it for a clear revelation of the
efficiency of the administration of
President Woodrow Wilson" The
evening Post then discusses the polit-
ical significance of the sentiment in
favor of President \, ilson, saying:
''That so keen a politician as Mr..
Roosevelt has called off his proposed
criticism of the amateur in the White
House is clear proof of the changed
status at Washington. 1t will be
sufficient to silence any criticism by
simply asking him what he thinks OF
Mr.. Wilson'S handling of the war stu
alton, and whether at any period in
our history we have ever had a
smoother working governmental ma !
chinery in grave national crisis. 1t |

try may be justly proud
