care of themselves going to either.
And know that lot of women who

that is-gO to both places.
However, the general run of hui
manity wherever 1 see it looks as rea-
sonably decent as humanity really is,
and probably more so than it really
wants to be. Of course, don't know
what's going on in the minds of the

places where folks resent, but I don't
care. It's none Of my business any
how. And Pm thankful that people
about me can't always tell what's
going on in my mind.
I'm discussing this matter now be-
cause of it's connection with politics.
The political boss generally comes
from the Ioins of common folks. He's
naturally vulgar, no matter how
much culture he may attempt to
cover II up with. And ne understands
human nature better than the cuItur-
ed reformer because human nature
itself.is naturally what we call COM
mon and vulgar. At that, 1 think 95
per cent of the culture of the cultured
refOrmer is hypocrisy and pretense.
That goes for most of us.
In politics the support the reformer
gets comes in two ways, money from
the rich who want to exploit the 95
per cent, and votes from the great
middle class who have decent fam
lilies, go to church, lead decent lives
and who can't afford the vices and
crimes of the rich and are not driven
by poverty to the vices and crimes of
the poor.
Comparatively, this class is not
large in the First ward, but is very

Most newspapers try to make
some abuse or another; and some
imaginary. The freer a newspaper is
Privilege the more apt it is to tackle
real vice. And if it is so hooked up
that it can't attack Big Vice, it makes
hystericaI attacks on Little Vice
and gets nowhere.
When an honest newspaper or an
honest politician attacks Big Vice he
shouldn't make the mistake of fight
ing Little Vice at the same time. For
then he is very apt to lose the sup
port of both the rich and the poor.
A smart political boss who wants
to feather his own nest by serving the
rich is always indulgent toward the
pleasures of the poor, even though
some of these pleasures may be con-
sidered vices by the cultured class.
Take dancing for Illustration
there is actually no more downright
indecency in the dancers in a cheap
First ward cafe or cabaret than there
is in the dancers at the SWEETEST ball
at the Blackstone hotel. The work
may be a bit coarser in the. one place
than in the other, but it is essentially
the same-the difference being main

question whether there is as much
exposure of female nakedness in the
cheapest cafe dance as there is at
one of the SWEETEST social functions

 Earl Curzon said he considered the only way to get a just view of the governments achievements was to seek opinion in neutral countries, especially in the United States.
 Referring to the Irish rebellion he said it was squalid page in history. and retribution will he hard and stern. The attempt to land a rebellion in Ireland and the futile bombardment of Lowestoft showed the strength of the country, he said.
 Was it possible Earl Curzon asked, ito imagine a bigger bungle than that made by the Germans?'
 The speaker said he did not know what would happen in England if the British government had been guilty of such experimentation of failures, but as far as he knew there was no Daily Mail in Berlin to call the all highest" to account.

 Louis Varon, as the police registered him. is the man who is alleged to have told the story of the home seeking child. According to the police he went to Titus store and said that friend of his had just married for the second time. A baby by a first wife was still living and he desired to farm out the baby so that the second wife wouldn't know anything about it.
 The friend was Greek, he continued Ind wished to have the child in a Greek family. He was willing to pay 5000 year for the privilege Of having the child kept out of the notice of his second wife. One thing. however, was necessary. The father of the child must have s2.006 security before the laby was taken from him.
 It was suggested to Titus that he might meet another man at the Copley Plaza hotel next day and bring with him SI,000, which would be used as half of the necessary deposit for the possession of the child. Titus said that | he would be there, but he also notified the police.
 He went to the hotel with the $1.O00 and $10G extra for good measure. The other man wasn't there, however, and NarDon suggested, the police say. that 1 they might find him at the South sta lien If they didn't find him there ] they should push right on to New York | City

Indecent Post Cards

Superintendent Brown of the Phoe nix Indian school, is making an earn est endeavor to secure the withdrawal from the various news stands in this city of th.1 indecent postcards of ln- dian girls and women. Many of the drug stores have given Mir. Brown their cooperation and have With drawn the objectionable pictures from sale, but they can yet be obtained from several dealers by any person wro may wish to purchase them. The practice is one which is highly ob iectiouable and should be discontin- ued. because of it's injustice to our Indian girls and also for its degrad ing influence on the minds of the growing youth of both Indian and white races
 Certainly no one can deny that the Indian girls to be seen on our streets are as modestly-if no, as nodish ly-dressed as the girls Of our owE race and that the display of Partially nude Indian girls and women is an | injustice to the hundreds of selfre- spacting and self supporting Indians | of the southwest; were similar views of young white girls to he displayed ' at every street corner. az are these !
