utah with gordly possessions ar wanting to a mil mustache stache comb a colle r box and a lead pencil it appears there is another aspiring man tin in stilt salt lake his oame is rosborough I 1 suppose ue ne is tue same who a few years yeara ago endeavored to achieve a little notoriety by bis aati mormon lie ile had himself interviewed and ana designated himself a judge and a democrat bemo democrat crat kle he is out again agai r as a democrat like the great of this city mr rosborough issues it a proclamation but unfortunately there is no cardinal to issue an apostolic benediction for mr there is a cobbler bler though and one is just asgood as good agthe as the other cobbler newman now of washington D L C has a chance to got ahead of cardinal gibbons newman hah bas gone beyond the last long ago so ao there will be no impropriety in his 1119 giving a benediction to mr rosborough or yr perhaps the acrobat JOE JOB COOK might come forward yes mr rosborough is a democrat strange that democrats ize themselves when they go to utah they are a good deal like Dibe liberals rals in england an english liberal is all a liberal in england in fact he Is a liberal with a rolling r in it until he goes to Ir ireland elaud and then his hia r hobbles most lamentably inen in england he is a liber ral batin but in ireland heisa he is a libel on his country and aad on his people rosborough boro ugh visilike goschen both are libels on the parties they claim to represent goschen Gosc ben the descendant of tibe ane jews whose teeth were drawn by english kings kingi to make them the jews hand over cash irom being a liberal in england turns tarns tory in ireland aul helps to carry out laws which once anc e were carried out against his own people yes the toady the in ake now antagonizes gladstone th though on gladstone represents the element which admitted jews existence in england this man an rosborough in common decency should not use the word democrat nor dor should he class as such unless indeed he be wants to HURT THE CAUSE of democracy we have hundreds of democrats of his kind kina in chicago he sneers at the peoples party w why by Peo peoples party is english for democracy mo ma cracy perhaps the judge forgets his greek and thinks that the word is derived from choctaw joe medill the editor editor of the chicago tribune has a bad dose of mormon phobia his paper of the ad instant contains an editorial of the crusher kind it must have ben been written with a fifty stamp mill it does not itself to utah but takes in the southern states and distributes to them a liberal quantity of f the editors odoriferous exudation there is rio no use in quoting noting what is said about utah but A at us quote what hon joseph medill says about the merchants ap apa ana a working girls of chicago this is WHAT HE SAYS A young woman naoman sought employment VZ a short time ago in in one of the big retail stores on state street as hundreds like her do eiery week she bhe was mas bright intelligent and good locking find and her hei recommend recommends a eions were the manager said he guessed guessed lie he could make it a place tor for her and alff told her to come around next morn ing what shall I 1 get she asked same as the ade others 3 a week replied the manager mana gei but how am I 1 to live on that asked the gul i I 1 1 I am paying 3 a week lor board and lodging fo and cannot flud find a cheaper place and I 1 must pay ten cents a day on the street cars for it is three mues to some my y boarding house and ill need some clothes he made a reply at which the girl flushed and left the office without a word I 1 what was the reply this great reat merchant made to that honest girl in search of work it made her BLUSH SCARLET this clipping is taken from joe me dills paper ot jelv joe medill was once mayor of chicago he is now looked up to as the po political prophet of a large section of illinois citizens his paper is purchased and read by the merchants and the working girls of this ethis city the statement here quoted I 1 has passed unchallenged therefore it must be accepted as truthful and it true why is it lake Michi michigan gair does not overflow its banks and submerge this city of sin and wickedness and aad foul foal lechery Is it possible that chic chicago ago merchants who employ female labor are of the kind here pictured Is there anything in the whole history of vice vi 1 ce tyranny and lust last anything so brutal bru tal SQ cowardly so fiendish as that merchant who told cold a respectable girl to supplement lemeut her scant income with the jude ot ker her poor body TO the n very thought of such a tiling thing paralyzes the vocal and la in the intensity of abhorrence tor for SUCH A the tongue forgets its office can i betrue be true can it be possible poss iole that the thousands of working girls to be seen morning and evening on the streets 9 ot this city are what joe medill says in his paper As a citizen of chicago I 1 protest against this foul assertion 1 I admit our city is pretty bad but I 1 hold that there is not no a Ln merchant erchant iu in it would say what is here reported we did have a preacher prea coer ier here once who said that of our women were brosti atutes but we always take what the preachers say with a good deal of salt either joe medill is a foul li beller neller or our cites I 1 a very sink of corruption loan can it be wondered that this hoary old vampire pire would malign the atte people of utah when he thus characterizes his own fellow citizens la Is it not argument enough that utah should be admitted to statehood when such a mo monster nater of infamy althe tribbie editor is opposes it it is to be hoped that abbott and rosborough It have no sisters nor female kin working in chicago if so they ought to blush lor for joe medill and his bis newspaper SPEAKING ho HONESTLY ESTLY and seriously it must be conceded that womans comans condition in our large city is a deplorable one and is worthy of grave coin consideration young girls from the country towns are cro crowding ica into chicago day after dai day in ie quest of office woi k they are compelled to accept wages entirely for their maintenance and strangest of all these women seek employ employment employee me jut to MI stores and offices domestic work is looked upon as something more degraded than even bagnio life Is it any wonder then that prostitution is now n ow one of the quest questions ians eti engaging the attention of our ma mayor or he proposes locating the fallen creatures in a part of the city to be occupied exclusively by them when mr roche koche first assumed office he adopted the role of reformer and his police commenced a guerilla warfare on the haunts of the vicious he thought that ily by adopting tactics contrary to all law ift to all religion and to all allf civil and political and natural riz lits he be could perform the work ot of a hercules he soon lound found that his bis method was a good deal like that of purifying a STAGNANT POND by stirring up the slime at the bottom he drove the unfortunate women into streets inhabited by comparatively decent people developed a system of police tyranny that could not be paralleled even in constantinople or moscow some of the girls sought employment in stores in order to biffie baffle the police fancy the result of one bad woman working amongst fifty others not dad bad the vicious garl agirre got iato aiato boarding houses where working girls reside here also the work of demoralization went on and in place of reforming mayor roche only went on rui ruining duinink girls suspected by the police were arrested on the streets and then charged with disorderly conduct it mattered not whether the girl I 1 solicited 7 or not she was run in lp jp many cases the police would atcha a girl until they were sure she had money enough to PAY A FINE and then arrest her no steps were taken to arrest the male partner in the transaction though really he ought to be made the principal offender there were and are men here making fortunes by bailing out unfortunate women when arrested judges also make money this way A short time aso ago here the treasury of a police court gained lined by tines imposed on the inmates ot of one house three or four shyster lawyers made 00 on these same inmates the abo poor unfortunate female has a hard row to hoe she is kicked and cuffed sandbagged sandbagger sand bagged and rolled at every turn she Is nob odys child but then she Is what our christianity and oui civilization make b ber e r aad if joe medill speaks the truth s she he was at one time advised to do something which made her blush scarlet and that bt by a merchant employer of perhaps a undred hundred girls a merchant who might have been a church officer if we could only be not to put our own house in order and let utah and georgia alone then perhaps there would be hope for chicago tiie G A B R A short time ago the G A E R men were directing tb their r guns at salt lake now they are turned towards washington even the martial medill has as much to say as gen tuttle of iowa the president of the U united cited states is handled bandied just as unmercifully as the president of the mormons cormons Mor mons these G A R men are terrible fellows mr Me medill dillis is spokesman tor for the grand army he was not in the field but he be sent a box of his old linen for surgical purposes to the front like mark twain mr medill did some hard fighting here in in chicago in fact his deafness was caused by the roar of artillery at the battle of boonville blonville Bo onville and he be is not done lighting fighting yet he wants the war beque bequeathed athe L as a legacy of honor to future generations he goes into hysterics aboa battle flags and grand army orators he does not want the Prep president ident of the united states to speak before veterans but he wants toe the presidents substitute sti tute it Is ia strange these people cant seo see HOW contemptible and how petty they are arc r aking themselves if president cleveland sent a substitute to 10 the war ibis his i shows that be was then a person of if means and of industry and that UP lie had a local habitation iud and a name it is to bo be hoped the P resident will not iii 31 degrade the t h e high position he holds by stamping slumping slum ping before a lew few cowardly cranks some of these G A K R fellows were never men and are not men at present A few years 3 ago they raised their howl about utah when they knew there were only women and chil children deen to contend with they are perpetually clamoring for pensions aud and gratuities when the war was finished they bad to be paid for their patriotism and th their air organized appetite for pension is not yet satiated it is only a year ago the G A R men ot this city raised a I 1 about general mulligan he was laying in calvary cemetery y some twenty years or more and there was never a word about him his wife aud and family were drag dragging glug along a poor existence on a miserable pension but there was no DO thought about them president cleveland recognized the claimon claim of mrs elul ligan to sm something ething at the hands bands of her country he made her pension agent in this city but the G A R men who never did anything for her ber came forward to bombard the graveyard with whisky oratory in fact so outrageous and so disgusting was their conduct that the supt bupt of calvary cemetery used a shot gunto u to chose chase them out of the cemetery aks elrese e aro arn the patriots who are now raising such a about our country as if f the war was not yet finished and its issue forever cons consigned ignec to the dark past As to the RETURN OF THE FLAGS of course the proposition was mon etious it was just as bad badas as requesting sitting bull to bury or return the scalps he raised while on the war patti path when sitting bull was requested to do so his bis indignation and patriotism were both aroused and he spurned the proposition in this respect sitting bull affords a good precedent prece deat tor for general and joe the man who would bury our civil ers era mementoes would bo bc spoiling lots of fun for future generations just fancy the lively times limes in store it if only these flags are are judiciously judicious lv planted planned the mementoes of ane english revolution of 1685 88 burled buried and burned years ears ago what fun we would me have lost there would be no 0 range ism no throat slitting for the sake of christ in our time the battle of the boyne would not be fought over again every july and there would BE BB NO WORK for foi john finerty and pat crowe crow e and patrick ford yes by all meant means keep the confederate rags raise them thea I 1 on high transmit the war to generations yet unborn and let us adhere to the patriotism of sitting bull and to the valor of the I 1 scotch auhll I ich who sold their king for four pence and even then cheated the lawyer of course treasure the flaus they are redolent of the most fraternal kind of recreation in the past JUNIVS |
