In atead of abandoning hla policies, Mr, Bryan has lived to see . them appro-. priated bodily by Mr. Roosevelt and heralded to the world as "my pol lcies."

Thus public opinion has been rap idly moulded ln favor of more lib eral treatment of the waterways of the country, the necessity of which is yearly becoming more imperative, in view of a rapidly Increasing vol ume of all kinds of products, and the certainty of a recurring scarcity of railroad transportation facilities. Let tbe agitation be kept up, in all possible ways. The next convention of the Rivers and Harbors Congress wjll be held in Washington on De cember 9-11,- coincident with the meeting of the president's National Conservation convention, and they together should be able to impress the congress strongly with the merits of the demand for Inland water ways, open rivers and improved har bors.

ORE railroads will not ob viate tbe necessity for more good wagon roads; will rath er Increase that necessity. It is hardly necessary to go over the arguments that show the great im portance of good roads again; If all do not realize the Importance, the majority certainly do, and know how greatly any community will be bene fited by good roads. If this be true, the work now Is not bo much to con duct a campaign of education aa to devise ways and means by which to move forward to. attain the desired result. This cansbe done to some extent by single communities as it haa been done in the Alsea neighbor hood, for Instance, and In others. It can be done under tbe taw oy coun ties, and . much will be done in this way. But ln the near future It is probable that the state Itself will take an active, affirmative band, aiding counties with state funds. The money expended under such a lsw. If wisely used, would return to the communities, the counties and the state many-fold, within a few rears. A start has been made. Everybody abould help tbe movement along.

To the Editor of me journal xne Journal or Monday evening contains a letter written by a wire ana mother" and in defense or the north end and Its dives. Instead of tne north end being a safeguard for women it is a well-known fact that every bawdy house Is a menace to the safety of these. If the unfortunate women are Indeed a protection to women and as "wife and mother" would have us believe a preventive of madness and solitary vices among men they should be regarded as rjubllc benefactors and so treated If, at this price, the safety of women Is purchased, then, In deed, .women should make both public and private ' acknowledgment of our gratitude to those we now shun. Was there ever such base ingratitude as both men and women are showing toward tnese wno ere giving up, according to the letter in auestion. Innoesnra and virtue, foregoing homes and the love and tenderness of little children, that other women may enjoy these things and be pafe. becoming a hissing and a bvword that other women may walk the streets ln safety, steering straight for the morgue and the potter's field that other women may leave names of honor and die In the shadow of love and purity? Out upon fuch nonsense and hypoc risy: ine norm en a is a menace to an pure women, Llttl children 'will be born wltn the mark of Coin unnn them because a city of churches allows the doors of these dens to open for the young mon to walk through and thence to the sanctity of the marriaara altar and. fatherhood, with tainted blood. Reference is made In the article In question to the contagious diseases acts of England and their repeal. . I recall an incident of altogether different na ture to the on mentioned. When the women of the W. C. T. V., through whom these unspeakable laws were re pealed, came back from their sad trip of investigation In India, they waited for the time that they were giving their teatlmonv to the Ena-linh tnv.rnn.nl with a woman of wealth and culture'who had a son in the English army. One day at the solicitation of the hostess. Miss Bushnell told her of the awful condition of the women who were kept there under th law, and the equally awful danger to the soldier, because vice was made easy and respectable, also comparatively sare because tne aanger of contagion Was supposed to be re duced to a minimum, tne woman com mented: "I cannot believe but you are n,rim,nt ho. .hnwn that one Dint of . . .1 J ... 1 1 ir.. . . . . - .- . resting boy has been ther. lias but Just re turned, and if it had been aa you aay he would have told me. ur. Bushnell said: "Call your son and let us ask him." This was done to hear the re ply from this bronzed soldier: "Mother, they have not told you one-half of the awrulness. No one could. Mother, I tried to be the man I knew you wanted me to be. but It was not popular. The fPovernment makes provision for sin and tne soldier who tries to be clean, finds himself shunned as peculiar." So, Instead of the much vaunted "con tagious diseases" acts securing safety for men, they send young men, who had left their homes clean and pure, back to marry the Dure daughters of Knar- land and to send the stream of Impure Diooa aown tnrouen tne veins or their own cnnaren. The wives and mothers are not giving testimony to Keep tne nouses or pros titution ln our city, but are Dravlng tnat our gooa mayor may ne successrul ln his attempt to protect the wives and unborn children from the vile diseases. both moral and physical, that the exist- ence of the north end guarantees will be scattered from their doors. My home is sare, my cniia is in neaven, but from my vantage ground of safety I pledge to ao an in my power to give to others tne same sarety, and I am persuaded that there are thousands of women In Portland of the same spirit. Our con vention next week will study this ques tion. If to protect myself I must give even a passive consent to the Immolation of zuo women in t'ortiand i will deny such uruit-ciiun. uci- coia-Dlooaed nenrf- lessness I have seldom seen as is mani fested ln the assertion "that there must be these sad unfortunates to make me safe." Manhood Is not dead yet, and I am persuaded that the women of Port land can depend upon that for their pro tection from danger. It has been asked what will become of these women If they are driven out of teh north end. In God's name, men, can they possibly go to a worse pjace than thev now are? The church spires dotted all over the city will give guarantee that these women will be given opportunity to live honorable lives. .
