DANGEROUS EVILS
Correspondent Objects to thi
Existence of Dance Halls.
BOYS AND GIRLS RUINED
Tbeir Exittence Allowed by the City
Authorities Who Favor a Wide Open
Town an1 Make No Effort to Enforce
tbt Uwi or Have Ketpect for Morality
Lditor Antorian. W hen an abuse or a
nuisance exist an offended public in
atirw lively turn at once to the leading
newapapcr a a medium through which
condition favoring relief may be
brought about. The fact that the Antor
ian i a powerful champion of justice
and morality, and the existence of an
abuse which reek with the odor of its
victim and i an offenne to every roan
woman and child in our t-ity, constitute
the excuse fur thi communication.
Supponing Astoria to be a city of
average morality, can a more dangcroun
crime aguin-t that morality lie imagined
than exint in the four dance halt which
nightly disport the allurement of from
30 to 100 half-clad girl and women a
an enticement for boy, men, ye and for
other girl and women to forsake vir
tue and enter tion their ruin! Would
any other American city at thi day
tolerate auch an abomination? I it not
time Astoria ha forever outgrown thin
canceron and ghastly relic for the pro
prietie? How thi portion of the city could
have been c long auffered to flourish in
a city of ten thousand virtuous and re
apectable religioua people at leant three
fourth of them religioua people i a
mystery. How many Atoria home
would not be highly inaulted if charged
with having any connection with or re
sponsibility for thi outraget And yet
we nurse it and it thrive upon ua.
Seven night in the week boy and girl
are baited to their destruction. Surely
it ia only permitted because universal
condemnation ha not yet produced
unity 1 of action, for no aane person "de
fend auch institution unless pecuniary
interested.
Many parent do not know what in
ducement the dance hall extend to
their children. A man who ha frequent
ed these places say:
"You would hardly Wlicve me if I
should tell you the name of the many
boya and girl whom I personally know
made their start in live of sin and dis
grace in these dance halls, for there are
a lot of them. Some people My dance
hall are a necessary evil to attract a
certain claa of men who bring money to
the town, but that ia all rot. If you
could aee the boya many of there from
our ao-called best families who go to
these places, you would say 'close them
up quick.' At first they go only to look
on, and the eight of half-naked girl
and women ia considerable of a curosity
to the average youth possessed with the
usual desire to aee something of the
world, and in the mixture of wine and
women that generally follow modesty
and virtue are destroyed and habit are
formed which separate a boy from his
mother' influence and which would sep
arate him, but too often does not, from
the society of all respectable women.
Manv of these bov would not dare to
go there were it not for the example of
certain men, and may ! often seen in
their haunts regardless of influence such
conduct has lioii the youth who are too
prone to use their example ns an ex
cuse for imitating them. I have often
seen girls of apparently not more thai,
fourteen or fifteen years in the dance
halls. Once they are induced to go there
and dance, then It is good -by girls."
Can it be that the decent people of
Astoria, who are so vastly in the major
ity, have endured this curse so long that
they deem it incurable? So little is
said against them that the proprietor
of these places of vice have come to im
agine the religious and moral people to
lie quite satisfied to have them remain.
Shame on the church people! Is it pos
sible that the city officials, apparently
so fond of running an open town are on
ly waiting for public sentiment to crys
tallize ou these subjects? Or are city
ofiiciul supposed to be possessed of no
personal or officiul discretion in the mat
ter of civic moral welfare?
