Show Seth Bullock on New York. CapU Seth Bullock, clear-eyed cowboy critic, says of a certain species of East-cm East-cm citizenship: "A man from out our wav can't help seeing the way a lot 6f sheep-faces along In theso subways and street cars of yours crowd women and stomp on their feet to get ahead of them. Great God Almighty! I came over from Washington yesterday On tho Congressional Limited, and things they called men pushed their way by women, wo-men, who wero there before 'em, Into tho dining car, and when they wero through and dono with their dinners theso same critters sat there and smoked cigars and let the womon wait. If that's tho typical Eastern gentleman, then the real American Ameri-can gentleman Is to bo found In tho West," Mr. Bullock's criticism Is Just. It Is well founded. Not ono word can bo uttered In deprecation of It, except Mr. Bullock's Implied admission that It Is not typical. Thcro aro "real American gentlemen" In New York. In all kinds of places and In all sorts of ralmant plenty of them. But they aro not very conspicuous In the subways. sub-ways. In street cart or In tho bridge crush. NVcy Yirk Wot Id. |
