It would be gratifying indeed if the issue were brought into publicity throughout the country. It is not at] all likely that this city and its Jersey suburbs are the only places} where shippers of produce get unsatisfactory returns from mer- chants that engage to put it on the market. The National League says any person has a right to complain of any m-mber of the league before a local arbitration committce, If not satisfied, he may appeal to “the branch league as a whole.” If still unsatisfied, he may appeal the case to the National Executive Committee at its annual session. Tt will be readily noted that in every one of these hearings de- dston is to be rendered by commission men. Now commission men | are very apt to stand by “trade cistoms,” and it happens that some af the offenses specifically complained of are classed as such customs, The final appeal, therefore, must run to something ger and broader than the National Executive Commitice of the National League of Commission Merchants. Meantime the activity of the Jeague in the affair is hailed as something quite natural and possibly advantageous. — fe CORSETS AND WOMAN’S MORALS. UT of the investigations of a Woman's Reformatory Committee in Illinois comes the strange report that reclaimed delin- quents among women in that State amount to only 3 per cent., while in Massachusetts the percentage of the reclaimed is as high as 85 per cent. The difference in percentages is so large as to stagger the casual reader. The Reformatory Committee, however, believe they have found an explanation sufficient to account for it. They attribute the failure of reform in Illinois to the lack of proper clothing for the women convicts. As the chairman of the committee puts it: “No woman can maintain her self-respect unless she wears a corset. Dress our women prisoners well and they will be reformed. Corsets would make good women out of many who are now delinquent. This recalls the saying of Emerson that when one enters a church the consciousness of being well dressed gives more serenity of spirit than religion could do. A like rule may hold when one enters prisqn. It may also be noted that the present disconttnts and revolts of women have followed the increasing fad of dispensing with corsets. The Illinois idea should be worked out. It may lead to as strange things as the vice probe. ————— 2-2 THE VICE AND GRAFT PROBLEM. Certs te the problem of ridding the city of both vice and graft, the Executive Committee of the Citizens’ Committee has recommended that the police force be no longer charged with the duty of vice suppression, The committee says: “For the past ten years, in widely separated parts of the country, whether approaching the problem from the police side or from the side of vice repression, there has been a common answer: ‘Separate the field of vice suppression from the work of the regular police force.’ ” Recommendations so sustained are not to be lightly set aside, but there would be a good many disadvantages in having virtually a double police force. * A simpler way is open. If most of the prohibited vice were treated as a nuisance instead of as a crime, it would be easier to enforce the ordinances against it, and there would be less willingness to pay graft or blackmail. Furthermore, a good many misdemeanors under our laws, such as drinking beer on Sunday or buying food at delicatessen stores on that day, should not be deemed either vices or misdemeanors. There would be fewer law breakers if there were wiser law makers. ———_-t+--____ A BEGINNING HAS BEEN MADE. F LMOST exactly two years to a day since the 'l'riangle fire, the A Committee on Safety makes report to the effect that con- ditions in New York factories are virtually the same as they were when that fire occurred. ~ Investigation showed that of the factories inspected more than helf have unsafe staircases; in three-fourths of them the emergency exits, the outside fire-escapes and outeide staircases are unsafe; about half have doors that open inward or are obstructed, and about threo- fourths disclose such poor general maintenance that a fire might occur at any time in piles of rubbish, paper and inflammable material. Upon this showing the committee reports “that, while a begin- ning has been made in securing safety for factory workers, conditions in New York factories are for the most part such as would make possible the recurrence of the Triangle tragedy.” Upon that statement of facts we may surely congratulate one another that toward securing safety “a beginning has been made.” If we keep doggedly at it, some time in the century we shall attain the | end, Letters From the People “Comin?

OOPEAROS FODASELED EES EEOSEOESEEOEEES OEOEEEOEOEESEOESE Do You Know What Swanning Is? a rr elped Build America} By Albert Payson Terhune barr The Captive Indian Girl. © panne Copyright, 1018, by The Publishing Co, (The New York Evening World), No. 23-—-SACAGAWEA, Heroine Who Saved the Lewis and Clark Expedition, HERE were many heroes in this Band of Immortals. There was but one heroine—Sacagawea, the little Shoshone squaw, the ‘Bird. woman,’ All honor to her!” “So writes Wheeler in his history of the Lewis and Clark expr- dition. Two statues and a brass tablet now mark Sacagawea’s exploits ar! |@ mountain peak is named in her honor. These are tributes accorded to few | women. Yet in her lifetime no reward was hers for all she did and sudeved for the United States. When the United States bought the vast “Loulsiana” tract for $15.0°0 09) the geography of most of the newly acquired region was ay unknown Americans in general as the moon. It was needful to explore and surv ¥ the huge tract for future settlement; to open the closed gateway to a nr~ | western world. On the report of Lewis and Clark, the officials sent ovt charge of this exploring expedition, hung much of our country’s future, And their success was made possible by one Indian girl. Sacagawea was a Shoshone equaw. She was the daughter of one chief ont, the sister of another, In 182, when she was fourteen years old, she was captured by @ hostile tribe, the Hidatsas, ‘and was soon afterward sold by them to French Canadian trapper, Toussaint Charbonneau, who married her. ‘Two years later the Lewis and Clark expedition, passing through the Dakotas on {ts outward journey, hired Sace- gawea and Charbonneau as guides. Charbonneau was more or less of a dead loss for such work, ‘Not only was h¢ ignorant of much of the wilderness through which the part? was to travel, but he was awkward and careless, and once or twice caused trouble and loss. His wife made up for his deficiencies, and speedily became the Inspiration and real leader of the travellers. Through almost impassable wilds she led the way, her Indian instinct serving her unerringly when all else fatled. Hoatile savages, lying in ambush to murder the white men, let them pass unharmed ata word from her. During the hardest part of the westward trip her little boy was born. Without delaying the Jour- ney by @ single hour, Sacagawea slung her pappoose across her shoulders and resumed the lead, When Lewis and Clark reached the Shoshone country they found their way barred. Inaccessible mountains rose before them. Without local guldes end sure-footed Indian horses this range could not be passed. Once more Gaca- kawea came to the front. She went to her brother, Cameahwait, chief of the Shoshones, and induced him to furnish the needed guides and ponles; also ty toed and shelter the explorers, Next she discovered and averted a treacherous plot of the Shoshones against Lewis and Clark. To the mouth of the Columbia River she accompanted the expedition. The return trip was even worse than the outward journey. In the passes of Montana mountains the party became hopelessly lost. No guldes could be obtained, Saca- gawea took the lead. By sheer instinct she led the expedition to safety. On this return trip, too, while the explorers were crossing the Missouri River, Charbonneau managed by a miracle of awkwardness to upset one of the boat It was the boat which contained all the records, maps, &c., of the expedition—a parcel of papers on whose preservation hung the success of the whole scheme. Sacagawea was the only member of the party to notice the loss In time, She leaped overboard, plunging into the ‘cy waters of the river, and rescued the precious package as it sank out of sight. . For five thousand miles Sacagawea tramped, slaved and ————“@“muffered with the Lewis and Clark expedition, saving it Saves Lewie 3 again and again from utter fallure and even from destruc- 13 and Clark. tion, And, the work done, she returned home, unrewarded, | «f unknown to fame. Lewis and Clark became immortal. 1 land they explored grew into a mighty centre of civilization. But the Indlan woman to whom our country owed so much was neglected and forgotten. She died among her own people, near Fort Washikle, April 9 1884, in her ninety-seventh year, Since then—too late to remind her of a nation's tardy gratitude—two statues have been erected to her memory; one in City Park at Portiand, Ore.; another in North Dakota's State Capitol at Bismarck. A audatory brass tablet, too, marks her last resting place, and one historian has given her the high sounding title, “The Pocahontas of the Pacific.”” {The Day's Good Stories | ofr etere rennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn “And several of y voolmates are workits right In tus twin for $10 a week," retor.ed Everyman, ‘while one of them {s tn jail, 1 guess A Little Too Hot.
