ing Mrs. Nation, the judge said:
“Missouri is no place for you.
Missouri is not a good state for
short-haired women, long-haired
men or whistling girls.”
She was arrested the night be
fore and taken to the police sta
tion in a patrol wagon, afterwards
.being released on a cash bond of
$6. Mrs.JNation lectured in Kan
sas City, Kansas^, Saturday night,
and came over to the Missouri

Btarted on a tour of investigation
I among the down town saloons that
evening. A crowd of 1,000 men
and boys followed her to Twelfth
and Walnut streets, where there
sare saloons on three corners. She
was arrested because the crowd
following her blockaded the street.
She severely lectured the saloon
men whom she visited.
Criminal Cost $600,000,000.
An eminent lawyer in New York
stated recently that the legitimate
cost of this nation’s criminal pop
ulation was the astounding amount
of $600,000,000 per annum. In
other words the whole population
who make cotton or wheat will
have their labors sunk in caring
for criminals. Think how many
useful citizens have to bear this
terrible load and if left alone the
burden will annually increase.
Georgia owes it to herself and
her citizens to stop this fearful
waste of men and money. Geor-
fellows and better farmers are
hard to find than Messrs. Webb
Commissioners to erect at Mill-
edgeville an inexpensive but well
arranged Reformatory for the State
to save both sexes and races. This
is better than County Reformato
ries because she can afford to pay
a thoroughly competent Superin
tendent who can inspire his asses-
tant8 with his knowledge, plans
and zeal for real manhood.
The Reformatory is to deal with
those older than those the noble
orphans homes are so successfully
reaching. They take the orphans,
the children of the absolutely des
titute and of the morally desti
tute, but from 14 to 20 there grow
up a crowd of boys and girls who
have thrown off their weak ineffec
tive family government, who know
no trade or perhaps wont study or
work. These will soon be gam
blers, sots, tramps, or if girls, de
praved. It is wiser to spend $200
or $300 to turn lives, by moral,
mental and physical training in
to useful citizens than to have to
try them, build words in the peni
tentiary or asylum for them or to
hang them. Lets ask our legisla
tors to put Georgia right tor her
future citizens.—H. L. Crumley.
