Can't Please Everyone.

To the Editor: As visitor to Wash
ington l am surprised to find that you
must have the old gang OF hypocrites
who post as reformers. Save the girls.
yes, 1 say. save the girls. Pay the girls
who are now decent. who work for "a
week. a decent wage and save them.
Pay the men a living wage and they will
get married, as was just proven by Ford
IN Detroit. The idea of a man coming
before the screen in a theater and talking
about red lights" when many a decent
young girl never heard of such a thing
before. The idea OF factory for the
women Is ridiculous. As a man who
tries to be religious, I say a red light
district conducted like that In Washing
tons Is better than those street walkers
are in Boston.
NOT A HYPoCRiTE.

The Investigation Of Joseph Gregory

Another innocent person arrested by
the police has expressed his sense OF
anger and shame. He had not the op-
portunity or the ingenuity, it would
seem, to have lawyer extricate him
from his trouble. But he got out Of
his shame. He killed himself in the cell
in which he was being held for inves-
tigation.
This person was one Joseph Gregory,
who was arrested because he had some
parcel post stamps in his possession
and endeavored to sell them. The
statements SO far made are to the eff
feet that Gregory had a right to pos
scss the stamps. They had been given
to him by his sister. He had right
to sell them-theoreticany; he had no
right at all in actuaiity.
His mother, who is over eighty years
old, seemed to be very motherly still
toward her forty-two-year-old boy Joe
although the poor fellow was so poor
that he was tempted into trying to sell
parcel post stamps.
She seemed quite to believe in him.
She said
IF he was arrested because he wa.
trying to sell the stamps" said hi!
mother, ''he was arrested for nothing

Somebody higher up is holding JOE

Joseph Gregory was fetched to the
morgue; and coroner, after viewing
the body, determined very shrewdly in
deed that Joseph Gregory had come to
his death by strangulation. But that
kind of investigation does not irk Jo-
seph Gregory now. He no more minds
the blue clothes and the plain clothes
the clubs, and badges and buttons, the
patrols and the prisons, the courts and
the workhouse, than he minds the
trifing bits of stamped paper he indis-

OIL BLAZES ON WATER.
Thousan ds Watch Spectacular Fire
which Eliminates Hudson.

New York, Feb. 1.-E fire which de-
stroyed thousands of barrels of oil in
the plant of the Valvoline Oil Company
at Edgewater, N. j.. early this morning.
furnished an interesting spectacle for the
residents along Riverside Drive in this
city. and attracted hundreds TO watch the
blaze, which illuminated the palisades
and the upper section of Manhattan.
The fire started with the explosion OF
a 5000 gallon tank OF lubricating oil and
spread to a row of other tanks and a
pile Of barrels on the pier, from which
the blazing oil ran into the river. spread
ing over its surface, where 1t burned for
hours, threatening to set fire to other oil
wharves farther down the stream.
Firemen from Cliffside and one OF the
New York fire boats Joined the Edge
water firemen and the company's own
fire crew In fighting the flames, which
were not subdued until all the oil in the
tanks and on the wharves was consumed.
The damage Is estimated at S2So,ooo.

The weepins M.sd.ie.e.

To the Editor: There was enacted .
few days ago In this city and In the
Congress of the United States one OF
the most significant events of legislation
that has ever occurred In that body dur
ing the more than 100 years of our ma
tional existence. Reference In made TO
what Is known as the passage OF the
Kenyon BILL"
This pIece Of legislation was significant
In the fact that IL was deliberately passed
without making any provision whatever
for even the temporary care or subsist-
ence Of the 800 or 100 unfortunate women
who under its provisions were made
homeless and helpless. But In Its rela-
tionship to woman as an individual Ia
wherein this significance Is made most
important. as 1t demonstrates that with
all our boasted civilization and advanced
Christianity of this twentieth century
the truth Is made apparent that woman
still holds today the same position that
she has held since the days Of Eden
that OF the ever-convenient victim and
.'scapegoat'' for the crimes of men.
Every woman, possibly. In that entire
district OF the red light" IL the truth
could be known. would be found to have
been the victim OF mans perfidy.
II would seem a pity that here in this
Capital City of the ideal republic OF the
WOrld mat tne WOrds OF MIN VINO lf1ted

tears have been so forgotten. and that
the same old story should again be en-
acted. stone the woman. let the man go
