Park Row, @ Park Row. on ice at New Muttor a The Evening For E Continent and for the United States: HN) One Year.... One Month, @OLUME TARIFF T . WORKING GIRLS AND R. SIMON N.:PATTEN are his title and hie name. He lives | D in Philadelphia and is professor of political economy at the | University of Pennsylvania. He is a protectionist. He has ! been reading investigations of the social evil and of the alleged rela- tions of a girl's wages to her virtue. He has also been reading of tariff reductions at Washington. In his Philadelphian sleep he gets the two things mixed and writes to our esteemed contemporary, the Tribune, to say: ! “When the tariff is reduced the low waged workmen lose; not their employer. And of those low waged ones the working girl will be the worst sufferer. ‘Nhousands of girls are now pressed to tie edge of moral endurance; the least push will put them on the street, Who will take the responsibilty for this?” Who, indeed? ‘The tariff of high protection taxes everything the working girl wears from her hat to her shoes. It taxes everything she eats fre morning ‘til nighj. It taxes the raw material used in the factory where she works: it pnts monopoly control over the machinery that does the work. Who will take the responsibilty for that? e By reason of these extortions the high tariff puts a virtual pre- mim on shoddy clothing and adulterated food. It makes a market for fraud. by: overtaxing honesty. Who will take the responsibilty for that? O movement to establish a “Court of Appeals” to be presided over by five judges, all of whom are to be women. In comn- tmendation of the measure it is said: “Girls can tell their experiencee im ’confidence and escape harmful publicity. The name of the re- sponsible man will be known to the court, and, if circumstances warrant, the information can be used either to drive the man from the community or to prosecute him.” This is intererting as an evidence of the reckless way in which anti-rice legislation is urged. Some of it is sentimental. Some of it hypocritical. Nearly all of it absurd. When charges against a man cen be made in secrecy before judges having the option to + «preseowte him or to drive him out of town, it will surely be necos- tary to provide for « recall of decisions and of judges with prompt- newe'and deapatch. ——_—__— +4 2—— MORAL MADNESS IN ILLINOIS. UT of the investigation of vice in Chicago has developed a oo PLAIN RIGHT AND LEFT. ‘CERNING the order of naval authorities changing the terms “port” and “starboard” to “left” and “right” there has been much criticism. Those that love sea lingo above “land language mourn what they deem a los#to romance. But others “hall the decree with joy, seeing in it not only a good thing achieved bat « forecast of better things to come. The example may be followed elsewhere. Baseball authorities may fix the terminology of the game so as to make it intelligible to intelligent men. If there is to be no port side to a ship why should there be a “south paw” to a pitcher? The drama, the prize ring, the medical profession, football col-| legians, society demes—heve not all these a jargon concealing wis-| dom worth making clear? We hoast of a language with more words than any ‘other. Un- fortunately the multiplicity of ite terms confuses ite thought, so we néed a new dictionary every other year, Thus the navy is serving well the country. When every man’s right is right and left is tefi we will not appear so learned, but we will have clearer understanding of one another. FUR 1 Bah ys SHUTTING OUT SUBURBAN SLEEPERS. INCE the ordinance requiring that all persons employed by the S city shall live in the State was passed by a vote of 53 to 11 it is evident there is hefty backing behind it. The argument put forth for it is that since a man draws hie salary here he should | ¢ spend it here and pay taxes here. Such argument was at its prime a thousand years ago, and has been decaying ever since., It may #till retain some of its pristine vigor in the town of Tailholt and the vounty of Wayback, but in New York it manifests nothing of its past but an ancient and fishlike smell. Suburban residents are among the most profitable upholders of the trade and work and wealth of the city. The sum of taxes we love ‘by their residence or sleeping apartments in New Jersey and Connecticut is more than compensated by the value of their service. We cannot annex all our suburbs by law, so if we can gei the use of the energies of their most active citizens by consent, it would be folly to shut them ont, Besides, a metropolis should always be metropolitan.
