CASE ALMOST HOPELESS.

When the president signs the Kenyon
bill the redlight district of the national
capital will pass out OF existence. In.
mates of the gilded resorts as well as
those who have sunk still lower in the
scale of human degradation will he cast
into the streets TO shift as best they
can. Those in the aforementioned class
will probably be able to get out Of
Washington, bat for the latter there is
no hope unless the charitable organiza-
tions are able to provide for them,
The president has been asked to de-
lay signing the bill until arrangements
can be made for caring for these un-
fortnnates. The women OF Washington
have taken hold of the matter. civic So
cietlcs have become interested and mass
meetings were held yesterday TO help
the movement for relief of the outcasts,
many of whom it is said lack the neces.
sary clothing to appear upon the streets.
The eradication of the social evil, If
that be within the realm of possibility,
is found to cause n great deal Of suf.
fering and hardship rs we'll as TO strain
the patience and charity Of the good
people engaged in the work of uplifting
humanity. The worst feature of the
situation is that the women will be the
only sufferers. The men responsible
for their downfall in the first place
move in respectable society and give
no thought TO the poor creatures they
started on the downward road.
The social evil is being attacked all
over the civilized world. Even the
slums of the great European capitals
have felt the influence OF the war now
being waged against this form of com.
mercialized vice. With all avenues
closed to the victims Of the social evil,
the lines of Oliver Goldsmith are
brought forcibly to mind. Death will
be the only recourse for the woman
after STOPPING to folly, unless, indeed,
pitying hands are stretched forth to
save.

MONDELL'S OUTBREAK.

II Representative Frank w. Mondell
OF Wyoming suggested an alternative
policy TO that which President Wilson
has adopted toward Mexico. it is not
recorded in the accounts OF the con.
gresham 8 speech at the Mckinley day
dinner of the Young Mems Republican
club in Pittsburg. Mr.. Mondel ON.

country s Mexican policy. "Amateurs,

FREIGHT BY PARCEL POST.

The parcel post is proving huge
success so far as the government and
tho general public arc concerned. II is
| different with the railroads and the star
route mail carriers Of the west. the lat.
ter facing bankruptcy in many cases as
a result Of being forced TO add a
frcighting outfit 10 their equipment in
order 10 carry out their contracts with
the postoflice department Both the rail
way companies and the star routcrs
have put in claims for additional com
pensation. At last accounts they were
still hoping and praying, if not cursiue.
The attention of the house has been
called to the matter, the following
stories being vouched for by the rap'
resentative of the state of magnificent
distances in which the unfortunate star
reuters faced extraordinary situations:
A carrier in the northern part of
Wyoming recently drove MP to the post
Office in two. wheeled cart, his usual
vehicle for carrying the mail to Mon
tana postoffice 100 miles north, and
was confronted with parcel post mail
made up of 2400 pounds of -four, 1000
pounds of sugar and several kegs of
horseshoes. Mr.. Mondell did not tell
the house how the difficulty was met
after the carrier recovered from his
fainting spell. but proceeded to relate
how another star router who had here
tofore been able TO carry the mail IN
his saddle bags over rough mountain
trail every day in the week but one,
when he used a pack mule, nearly had
a fit one morning when the postmaster
pointed out his parcel post mail-nine-
teen punches Of shingles, seven fifty
pound sacks Of dried fruit, SIX boxes
of crackers and cookies, three Of soap
and two largo sacks of miscellaneous
parcels.
Many similar instances were related
from the western states where the par
eel post rate for the first and second
zone is from 90 to 50 cents per hundred
lower than the frcighters charge, and
as a result the postofice department
gets the business. The trials and tribu
lations Of the star route carriers are
amusing enough, but the poor fellows
will be excused if they fail to find any
thing excrutiatingly funny in the sit
uation.
The postofice department has had
weighings TO determine what additional
compensation shall be awarded these
carriers, but thus far it is said the
awards made have been far short OF the
expense incurred in transporting the
extra weight. If the carriers get their
due it is probable Uncle Sam viii be
the loser by undertaking the freight
ers in the sparsely settled portions of
the western states. 1T is beginning to
become apparent that Postmaster Gen
