McElroy \
Laurel, Miss.In a letter from this
place, Mrs. Lucile McElroy says: "I was
sick for three years, \ylth backache,
headache, pains in my stomach and
back, low down. At times, 1 could not
do a thing, 1 was so weak.
After 1 was married, I thought I would
try C&rdul, the woman’s tonic, and afjter
using two .or three bottles, I couldn’t tell
one day from another—-felt good all the
time.
1 not only still use Cardui, but advise
every lady I think need* it, Ao give it
a trial, and several whom I have per*
•uaded, say they have obtained great re
lief.
Another good thing l have notioed
about Cardui, Is that it fills out hollows
under the eyei, whfeh are sunken as if
from a bad spell of sickness. It fieshens
up a woman's eyes, and make them look
bright and plump. Many a woman would
be pretty if it were not for her sunken-
in ©yes.
I believe that Cardui, the woman’s
tonic, is the only treatment for women.”
Do you suffer from womanly trouble?
If so. give Cardui, the woman’s tonic, a
trial. ^
Judging from the experience of a mil
lion other women who have been bene
fited by this remedy, it should surely
do you good.

THE IMPEACHMENT OF A JUDGE.
The senate of the United States pro
nounced judgment recently on a man
who for nearly thirty years has held
some of the vey highest offices of the
country*
He misused his power and office for per
sonal gain. He betrayed a higli trust,
and after a long trial and a magnificent
defense, he was pronounced guilty by
the senate and stripped of an office
that paid him $9,000 a year, and is for
ever disqualified from holding any office
of honor or trust.
He was a distinguished judge in Penn
sylvania for a long time, was a federal
district judge for a long time, and was
twice appointed by presidents to a place
on the commerce court—a most distin
guished position of honor.
He has retired from the senate a dis
honored man—and his son carried him
the news, g.fter the first fatal verdict,
into a small committee room, where his
faithful* wife attended him, in that try
ing hour.
Can you imagine anything more af
flicting to a proud man’s heart, or
more disheatening to those who loved
him and suffered with him?
If he had been a man of high ideals
he would have sunk under the load, but
then no man of high ideals would have
thus disqualified himself for holding
places of high trust andj official honor.
There have .been only a very few* per
sons thus arraigned before the senate
and denounced by the house of repre
sentatives. Only two judges have been
thus disfranchised, until Judge Robert
^chbald was found guilty.
It was a most disagreeable task for
the men engaged in the prosecution and
the jury of senators which condemned
him.
The greed of gold worked his ruin.
And it was no great amount—couldn’t
be to a person drawing $9,000 per annum
—that brought him to disgrace—when we
see the amounts were painfully small
compared to his previous salaries.
He was doubtless a grafter for a long
time.
Such a man, so highly honored, did
not. perhaps, succumb to the first temp
tation, and his long stay on the bench
would indicate that he r was on ’Easy
street” with the railroads for a long
time.
T saw a good deal of the Belknap im
peachment trial in 1876. I can hardly
realize that it was thirty-six years ago
when it happened.
General Belknap was General Grant’s
secretary of war, and he had the ap
pointment of what were called post
traders for the army out on the fron
tiers.
These post-traders sold supplies to
the soldiers, and as they were few in
number, they made fortunes very rap
idly.
All went along smoothly for a couple
of years, but the extravagant prices
charged to enlisted men aroused con
siderable talk.
A man named Marsh got a post-trad-
ership and he sublet it to another man.
wno was overheard to say he was
obliged to sell at high prices because
he had to pay Marsh $12,000 a year and
that Marsh said he had to pay some
body else, “higher up,” etc., etc.
To make a long story short, Marsh
and his wife turned state’s evidence,
and ^aid that Mrs. Belknap collected
that money regularly, and when pressed
for proof, ishowed the bank checks
which passed between them with Mrs.
Belknap’s indorsement.
It created a perfect storm of excite
ment in Washington. Mrs. Belknap was
a magnificent hostess and well known.
Many days did I attend that trial in the
senate, and I became very familiar with
such proceedings.
General Belknap resigned before a
vote was ordered, and his adherents
said he was entirely innocent; that it
was his wife: but I didn't believe it. If
he had been awake at all he knew some
thing about that flush of money. He
was acquitted on the plea that he was
only a private citizen after he re
signed, hut it dishonored him and the
family disappeared from public notice.
T am sorry for Mrs. Archbald. It Is a
dreadful ending to a gorgeous public
display in* high places.
BLOODSHED
PEACE IN
VERSUS
SERVIA.
The armistice in the Balkaans has
failed to produce peace. They prefer to
fight it out.
Ijt does seem horrible to me to know
that human beings are so bloodthirsty
that they are willing to stand up and
be shot at rather then forego the privi
lege of shooting at the other fellows.
It seems to be running into a
ca,lled religious war—the CTreek church
with the Moslems—the Greek church
months ago when four Christian nations
declared war against the Ottoman; but
’t^geems that the Roman Catholics, who
are always opposed to the Greek church
ire now unwilling to see the Turkish
•soldiers defeated or put down.
In the meantime this war murder
Toes on and the efforts to secure peace
during the late amnesty apears to be
fatally defeated.
The homes of innocent, dependent and
helpless people are ravaged, and deso
lated. The troops suffer under cold and
hardships. The wounded are dragged
into field hospitals, and the' dead ar*
pushed into shallow trinches.
AND FOR WHAT?
In truth, war is hat Gen. Sherman
said it was, nearly fifty years ago.
It never changes as to Its horror, its
cruelty and its destruction. And to

20109 WOMEN WIN
FIGHT FOR BETTER PAY
But 15,000 More Will Contin
ue Strike on the Inde
pendent Shops
(■Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
NEW YORK, Jan. 18.—Monday
morning 20,000 women and girls who
have been lighting for increased
wages, shorter hours and better work
ing conditions in the dress and waist
factories of New York, will return to
their work—victorious.
This was the confident statement of
the union leaders tonight, after one
of the stormiest days in the strike. It
should have been & day of peace, but
following the announcement that a
protocol had been signed, ending the
strike, with the demands of the work
ers granted, some ten thousand of the
workers bolted from halls where meet
ings had been called and announced
that they would not abide by the
terms of the agreement.
At union headquarters tonight it was
stated that this uprising was due to
agitators and to the failure of the' for
eign workers to understand the mean
ing of the agreement.
According to the terrps of the pro
tocol signed by the representatives of
the. union and the Dress and Waist
Manufacturers’ associations the work
ers are granted an increase in wages
of from 15 to 33 1-3 per cent; fifty
hours is to constitute a week’s work:
to be reduced to forty-eight hours
within one year.
The improvement of the sanitary
conditions of the shops is granted and
ample protection is granted against
fire. *
Another provision in the 1 protocol is
that Louis D. Brandies, Hamilton Holt
and Morris Hiliquist, who now consti
tute a permanent board of arbitration
in the cloak industry, will be asked
to serve in a like capacity for the
dress and waist industry^
Although the 20,000 workers employ
ed by the association manufacturers
will return to their work, between 12,-
000 and' 15,000 woipen and girls in
the same industry, but employed in
“independent” shops, will continue the
fight to the end.

“A STARTLING SENSATION
By Bishop
AND A SIGNIFICANT SURPRISE
W. A. Candler
All over the United States concerted
efforts are being made to correct "the
social evil” and close the houses of
shame in the cities. It is the outcome
of an advancing conscientiousness in
the land with reference to legalized im
moralities.
From one of the most important cit
ies in the union came a press dispatch
some days ago concerning the crusade
against vice in that city. It was occu-
cupied exclusively with tilling how one
preacher of all the ministers in the city
favored “the segregation of vice” in
’’red light” districts. This dispatch was
printed under this “scare-head” caption:
'Preacher Favors Segregated Vice.”
The whole thing showed how the press
correspondent, who sent the dispatch,
and the telegraph editor, who perhaps
wrote the head-line, were alike sur
prised by the position of this lone
preacher, who takes the wrong side of
the ziuestion. They sought to make a
sensation of the case because they ev-
identity felt it would surprise the
public, as much as it surprised them;
an-i in this view concerning the pub
lic’s surprise they were correct. The
case presents a significant surprise
from which w-holesome instruction may
be drawn by a little meditation.
Why were these men and others sur
prised by the position taken by . the
preacher in the matter? For no other
reason that it was felt to be out of
keeping with the character of a minis
ter of the gospel. Men of all shades of
opinion, from the holiest to the vilest
persons in the community, feel that it
is inconsistent with ministerial char
acter to compromise with sin in any
form. 4
It is quite true that a certain number
of men in every community are dispos
ed to applaud a preacher whose moral
sentiments are lax an<} whose pulpit
utterances \arc locfse, but in their hearts
they do not hold him in the highest es
teem. They will call him to banquets,
invite him to clubs somewhat off color
in moral character, or elect him chap
lain to some irreligious order or secular
institution, but when sore trial comes
to them, or when death stares them in
the face, they do not want him, and at
such times he does not want to be with
them. A more religious type of preach
er is desired wheh issues, too serious to
be compromised and too inevitable to
be ‘ evaded, are involved. When a man
finds himself in a situation where trif
ling is out of the question, he does not
care to call to his aid a clerical trifler.
Worldly preachers (save the mark! but
there are worldly preachers!) should
stop long enough from the engage
ments of their worldly lives to consid-
her why worldly men pet them and make
muci) of them In days of ease and do
not desire their presence In hours of
anguish. A due consideration of the
fact might lead some of them to re
nounce the low position of clerical
arbitors to worldly sinners, and re
sume the high position of ambassadors
of God, from which they have fallen.
In the courts of royalty in former
times there was one called “the king’s
fool;” his rank was not high, although
he feasted at his sovereign’s table and
was praised for his wit; he was never
called to counsels in which wise states
men considered the serious matters of
the kingdom, but was used for purposes
of amusement only. He was quite as
useful as is the preacher who suffers
himself to be made the pfaything of
worldly men, and who plays the part of
liberalist for the worldly patronage he
may win thereby His office was ex
actly on the level of these pulpits in
which sorry pulpit-wares are exhibited
as i..e marketable stuff which worldly
men seek when providing for the pleas
ures of an idle hour! But how im-
measureably below the plane of a mes
senger of God is such a level!
The significant . surprise disclosed in
this press dispatch sheds light on the
questiop o£ what is the right way to
deal with that putrescent evil called
“the social evil”. It shows that even
men of the world know perfectly well
that there is but one logical and sound
position to take on the question, and,
that is that this evil must be abso
lutely extirpated. It is worse than
idle to talk about compromising with
wanton wickedness; and the time is not
far off when any such proposal will be
looked back upon as the base and cow
ardly standard of a licentious era. When
that nobler period, which has already
opened, has fully come, the polygamy
of the unspeakable , Turk will be con
sidered no more disreputable than a pro
posal for civil authorities to segregate
unlawful vice and leave it to work its
purulent iniquity in polluted districts.
The posterity of $hen, who now apolo
gize for such segregation, in that bet
ter time'which is at hand will be per
plexed to know how to excuse the base
position of the4r unworthy ancestors
who affect “broadness” in our day in
order to win the plaudits of this present
evil world.
There is no better way to propagate
vice than to adopt a policy with refer
ence to it based on the idea that vice
is a necesiary evil. Such a policy upon
the part of civil authorities is a con
fession of both. It says to the dwellers
in the “red light” districts, “Your fes
tering vice is stronger,than the mighty
arm of the law”. Municipal and state
authorities would better say nothing
than to say that to the immoral elemtns;
for it is to establish them in the dis
tricts where they haye set up their
nefarious dens and to encourage, them
to carry their wickedness^ into any other
district which they may find it conven
ient or profitable to enter. Moreover,
the segregation of vice in one district
spreads dreadful Immoralities and fes
tering diseases to every other part of
a city. The population of the polluted
districts must be constantly replenish
ed; and all the streams of the “white
slave traffic” flow into the foul pools
of the “red light region” in order to
keep them full. Segregated vice is con
centrated and aggressive vice. It secretes
pus which conveys blood-poison to the
whole social system.
The apologists of segregated vice pose
as friends of virtue and very “prac
tical men”; but if they are really sin
cere in their professions of desire to
promote and protect virtue, a more im
practicable, pur-blind lot never lived.
The policy for which they" stand had
fair trial for many,, many years in all
lands; what has been the out-come of
it? In Paris and Tokio it has had the
fullest and fairest trial; yet heathen
Japan has found it impracticable and
loathesome. The “red light” districts of
Paris and Tokio smell to heaven and
shame the enormities of Babylon and
the excesses of Sodom. Let us hear no
more of the practicability of segregating
vice with a view to extirpating or lim
iting it; one might as well talk of ex
tirpating snakes by establishing a
viper farm.
The truth is that whenever any evil is
licensed by civil authority, formally or
informally, it is effectually propaga
ted. The prohibition of vice may be
difficult, but it becomes more and more
easy of enforcement with every added
day; while the licensing of sin tends
aljvays to greater excess of iniquity.
There are counties in Georgia in which
the sale of intoxicating liquors was
prohibited full forty years ago; in those
counties prohibition was at the first
somewhat hard to enforce; but *now the
prohibitory law is more perfectly en
forced in those counties than is any .oth
er penal statute. A generation has
grown up which never khew the open
saloon and a public opinion has been
made whjch is all-controlling in its pow
er. On the other hand, there are other
counties where ’ the leaders of public
opinion have assumed that prohibition
was impracticable, and’those counties
are^ filled with all sorts of lawless
ness. The advocates of saloons have
protested all the time ; that they wished
the liquor-shops closed, and that just
as soon as public opinion would sup
port prohibition they would favour its
adoption; but meanwhile their method
has constantly created sentiment in fa
vour of the open saloon and against
all forms of prohibition. Men and com
munities can “taper on” to the use of
liquors and the indulgence of all forms
of vice; but they can not “taper off”
from such indulgences. The only way
to be rid of sin is to quit it right now.
For many years after the war between
the States the American people were
very generally agreed that the resump
tion of specie payments was the cur
rency policy which should be adopted;
but the leaders dilly-dallied and said,
“We ought to resume specie payments,
but we do not know how.” Finally a
strong, wise, brave man said, “The way
to resume is to resume”; and it was
done. Whereupon tne nation settled
ddwn to business on a firm foundation.
In like manner the way to stop vice is
to stop it. The thing is too simple for
argument; and nc* man will argue about
it who has not hid away somewhere in
hiA perverted brain the vile heresy that
some sins are necessary—a base, cow
ardly notion 'which makes virtue a
matter of mere convenience rather ^han
of inviolable conviction.
The penal code of Georgia and the
codes of all the commonwealths of
Christendom outlaw that crime which in
fects the “red light” districts in which
some purpose to segregate vice. For
municipal authorities to seek to create,
allow or protect such districts is noth
ing short of lawlessness upon the part
of men sworn to support law and paid
to enforce it. Such a caurse is a shame
less departure from personal integrity
and infamous perfidy to official obli
gation. Who gave municipal authorities
the right to nullify state laws?
The way to stop the “social evil” by
law is to enforce law. That is the pol
icy of our criminal code, which is not
a code for private interpretation and
local application. There is not a man in
all Georgia who will dare stand up in
either house of the General Assembly
and propose the repeal of the laws
against fornication and adultery. That
which none will dare to repeal, let no
man repudiate. Nothing can be worse
than the nullification of law under the
plea that the lawless elements are
stronger than sovereign states and the
decent elements of society. Law-abid
ing and self-respecting communities
can not afford to submit to the licen
tious decrees of the immoral elements.
In the long run they will not submit
to such degrading and demoralizing
domination. Let all concerned mark
this observation and lay it to heart.
Miss Gould Follows
Mrs. Astor; Limits
Trousseau to $1,000
NEW YORK, Jan. 18.—Although one
of the richest women in America, Helen
Miller Gould will confine the expense
of her wedding trousseau within $1,000,
The latter figure was that set by Mad
eline Forde, now th e widow of Col. John
Jacob Astor, when she was married, and
it was a shock to Fifth avenue modistes.
Many wealthy brides have spent ten or
twenty times this. %
When Miss Gould marries Finley J.
Shepard at her Tarrytown home next
Wednesday, she will be gowned in ivory
white, with satin and rose point lace
trimmings with a court train and a
rose point veil. Miss Gould’s favorite
colors are purple and gray, and most
of her trousseau is made up of these
colors.

Bites Tongue in Two
In an Auto Accident
As the result of thie impact when the
automobile he was driving hit a wagon
near Fort McPherson shortly after 7
o’clock last night. W. C. Jones, of Col
lege Park, lies at the Grady hospital
with his tongue bitten in half and suf
fering intense agony.
When the injured man was first
placed on the operating table he was
unconscious. Later he regained hiS
senses but was unable to talk enough
even to give his name. Several stitches
were necessary to sew- his tongue to
gether. Mr. Jones had recovered suffi
ciently from the shock at 10 o’clock
to utter a few words and will not ‘lose
his power of *speech as was at first
feared.
As well as could be, undertsood, he
was driving the car when a wagon, with
two negroes in it, came out of a side
street directly in his path. It was too
late to stop, he declared, and the col
lision occurred, badly damaging the ma
chine and breaking up the wagon.
