Bishop A. Grant Of Indianapolis,
Ind, writes the following letter:
The Conservative, 1901-11-28
CRIME.

The object Of mental culture is the
fullest development and highest activity
of the faculties of the mind
Crime is caused by the lack of ability
to control action under abnormal in
f1uence.
Punishment is that which awakens
normal conditions and leads to regular
conduct. 1t tones up the mind to resist
the tendency toward abnormal i'm
pulses.
In one sense, all men are criminal; in
another sense, there are no criminals.
We are all creatures of inheritance and
environment A pious gentleman,
walking along an unfrequented path,
came upon a plowman who was trying
to stir the soil of newly cleared piece
of ground AS the handles of the plow
kicked and bruised the young man, the
fresh-coined oaths and maledictions
rolled from his tongue like doubloons
from mint run by electricity. The pious
gentleman Immediately demonstrated
At the suggestion of the plowman, he
took the plow for single round At
each jerk and bruise he exclaimed, ri
never did see the like!" AS the bruises
became more severe, the EXPLANATIONS
became more emphatic. The question
to be decided is, which one violated the
moral law, the man who calculated
The Conservative, 1901-11-28
oaths, or the one who so emphatically
and repeatedly uttered falsehoods?
Cause of Crime.

The general tendency is not toward
criminal action. The first symptom is
lack of self-control. This is weak
ness. Some one, who is not honest, by
some trick, deprives the weakling of
something that rightly belongs to him.
He appeals to the court for redress The
court makes wrong decision. Or, if
it make correct decision, it has caused
such enormous expense to the plaintiff
that he is worse off than if he had let
the rogue escape with his ill-gotten
gain. The mind of the weakling has
been sharpened and strer gthened. He has
learned that justice is not dispensed by
the court, or if dispensed at all, at
loss to the victim. The redress of the
court amounts to robbery.
Temptation.
If the victim have self control, he
will remain honest and be more careful {;
otherwise, he will attempt to win back
what is lost, and if possible, keep out of
the courts. Here secretiveness is
brought to bear in a wrong way. The
weakling, the dullard, has become
strong and sharp. The innocent has
become criminal, not of choice, but
through force of circumstances. After
the first step, the progress from mild
The Conservative, 1901-11-28

form to stalwart crime is easy, and Sc
we're punishment only tends to make
him an enemy of mankind. The sprout
ing of crime is never found among those
implicated in it's consummation.
Punishment.
All punishment should lead, or tend
toward retribution. After this end is
attained, all further proceeding should
be formal and nominal. Any measure
extending beyond genuine repentance
and reparation, as far as is possible, is
crime in itself. Instead of lessening
the tendency to wrong in others, it
blunts the tender sensibilities in all
within reach of it's influence. This
hardihood is the basic principle of the
worst forms of human depravity.
Prevention.
Patience under mistreatment is first
to be made part of an upright character.
"All things come to him who waits"
Pity the person who wrongs the one
who never did him harm. Next is firm
ness in the right. 1t should be kept
constantly in mind that right never
fails of it's reward.
Temperance.
No one can be successful in any un-
dertaking without temperance in all
things. The indulgence in any practice,
to excess, destroys the power to act de-
liberately. Without deliberate action

with an aged gentleman who knew
K rockefeller when youth. Rock
Teller, he says, was a rather awk-
ward young man and poor. He
sought the hand of 4 young Cleve-
land lady and was turned down.
The old man added by way of par
enthesis that the ''frailty of women
is shown when tell you that ten
years later this Cleveland lady,
though happily but not wealthily
married, sat in her home with two
little children on her lap and with
tears coursing down her face, con-
demned herself for lack of fore
sight. This woman should know
that true happiness does not always
come with the pots OF gold. Far
better the modest comforts and re
sponsive hearts than all else tina,
money can purchase.
