MR. EDlroR.-In your last issue, YOU refer to =
matter that directly concerns every citizen in Oro
vile and its vicinity-especially parents To know
that there is anything claiming relat onship with
the human race in 0roville. located on Montgome-
~ street. bearing anything like an image Of the
Great Author of our existence engaged in calling
which must necessarily render il indispensable for
ladies and children TO find their way to the rooms
of the photographer, for the purpose of having
their hkenesSes taken TO send TO some dear friend
or relative. or to preserve for themselves-what
feelings must they have when they are informed
that they have been imposed upon by 8 low, mean,
foul, disgusting Cea.t who. for price would take
the photographs, OF public prostitutes in
nude" state, in all imaginable shapes and posi-
tons, and place them in the hands of those be has
thus photographed, who Immediately circulate the
same broadcast among the community. and by this
means they fall into the hands Of children attend
ing School. and become public exhibition among
the youths of our village and vicinity, and become
public advertisement for the benefit Of the piups,
hangers-on, strumpets, and their siders and abei-
tors. Then again. what would be the horror Of
respectable ladies and innocent Misses and children
should they some day learn that their faces, by
some artistic process is attached to the nude body
of OF these strumpets sold at exorbitant prices,
and exhibited to the confidential friends of those
who are degraded enough to purchase them. The
best evidence that. artists who degraded enough
in the scale Of humanity to take such photographs
will sell them is the fact that it has been done by
many Of these "bruteS'' Now, ladies and gentle
men. before you patr onize any such institution.
where you are liable TO be thus seen all over the
country by your acquaintance and strangers, con-
trary to your own desires, ponder well ere you
place yourselves before camera under the control
of any such vagabond and blackguard.


Must such thing be tolerated in Orovie
Must the wives and daughters of our citizens suffer
this indignity and let the scoundrel go unwhipt
Why, in the name of decency do not the Fathers
and Mothers Of the children of 0roville school
District, demand that this fountain of hypocrisy
and corruption on the body polite be asked to re-
sign his position as School Trustee, and that the
Public School Library be removed from his polluted
den? 1t is a dnty that every right-minded person
owes to himself, or herself and family to see that
E. A. Kusel should be removed as far as possible,
from associating with any other charactera than
those who willing to submit themselves in a nude
state for his inspection. All decent people should
avoid him as they would the Egyptian plague"
The officers of the law should that he is presen
ted to the Grand Jury. How long will this com
munity submit to the vile practices of this echer
Gus old hypocritical villain? How long will they
stand his leer? How long will they tolerate this
old carbuncle on the good name of the town? If
mild and gentle hints will not suffice, give him
taste of the % Regulators Pacifer, and Divers.


"a grdle foul with grease binds his obscene a tire


NO pardon vile obscenity should find.
