SAN FRANCISCO DEFENDED.
Vv to this time we were not aware
that Boston was In the habit of exalt-
big her moral horn at the expense of
San Francisco. The unpleasant revela-
, Vn cornea to us In the form of a de
fense of this city by a California lady
sojourning In Boston, says the Cult
- Her temper has been touched by the
continual Boatonian criticism of San
Francisco as the wickedest of cities.
sort of Sodom with a. Gomorrah lean-to
: while Boston Is boasted as the "storm
center of morality and virtue." This
gallant lady declares that the young
rnea of San Francisco are models of
temperance, knights of the blue rib
bon and white, as compared with the
Xunesse doree of Boston. The young
chaps of the Hub are accused of a
chronic dark brown taste permanently
swelled heads and throbbing temples,
, They go forth tn the morning on the
primrose path of the cocktail and come
back at night via the shandygaff route,
. with their liquid contents swashing
around under their belts like beer m
a half-empty keg. We are gin d and
sorry to hear this. Glad that It can be
said that our young men stick closely
to the fine waters of -our own state,
finding them useful to quench thirst as
well as for navigation. Irrigation and
bathing, and sorry that the sons of the
Puritans and other people In Boston
are prono to trot the pace that kills
and arrive at the wire as full as Bac
chus andta noisy as a runaway auto
mobile. But our California lady does not stop
with a comparison 'of thirsts and the
vways of quenching them, but goes In
to a more serious question of morals,
and brings our young men out flying
but whether with flying colors depends
on the point of vtew. She says that
h knnwa several young California
. gentlemen who were students at Har
vard and vere compelled to run out of
town and leave their books behind
them by the attentions of Boston wo
men! This Is serious. We do not send
our youth to Harvard simply to prove
them "los'phs and resistant to the
moral phylloxera in the guise of Lady
potiphar. We "end them there to stock
up. on lore and to get a full orbed train
ing In the wisdom of the world. Pres
ident Eliot will please take notice that
