WHIPPING POST RECOMMENDED
FOR CONVICTED HOLD-UP MEN

two youths Were allowed to plead guilty
to murder. The plea was accepted on ac-
count of their youth, whereas. IL they had
been older they probably would have been
hanged. Recently the police arrested three
boys about sixteen years old, and. from
the confessions of the prisoners, they have
been guilty of dozens of stick-ups and bur-
glares in the last few months. These cases
might be cited without end. In other cities
the stick-up. man is the same youthful cul-
prit he is in Chicago.
-.
"a singlar feature of the case is that
the most desperate stick-ups we have de-
veloped in Chicago have been Poles and
Bohemians. These are races supposed to
be more than commonly quiet and law
abiding. To the police of the world neither
the Pole nor the Bohemian is known as a
professional criminal Just why such a
large proportion of the young, American
born Poles and Bohemians should develop
such desperateness along the stick-up line
l do not pretend to say, but the fact re-
mains.
Another criminal of the Burke type,
whose work is closely related to that Of the
in Chicago. is the night worker or prowler.
He makes speciality of entering a house
In which there Is q sleeping family and
goes to the sleeping-room Of the man of
he wakes him and orders him to keep quiet
and deliver the family valuables. man
named Wilson represented the highest de-
velopment Of this type, as Burke did OF the
stck-up proper. Wilson operated In Ohio,
Michigan and Minnesota several years ago
One of his most sensational pieces Of work
was done when he entered the house of
Thomas Cakes. then president of the
Northern Pacific railroad. in St. Paul.
Cakes fought Wilson desperately all over
the bedroom and was badly battered in the
fight He gave about as good as he re-
ceived. however Wilson, soon after called
on William G. Merriam, banker and after
ward governor of Minnesota. and carried
away the family treasures He was arrest
ed later In New York while disposing Of
stolen property. taken back to Toledo,
sentenced to long term in the Ohio PEN
itentiary. from which he escaped, and was
afterward arrested in Connecticut He
was killed in Weathersf1eld,, Conn, while
trying to escape. This man, like Burke,
was not known to the police as q profess
sional criminal until his capture.
Recently negroes have taken up this
class OF crime. Only lately the room of a
prominent railroad officia1 from San
Francisco in a leading Chicago hotel was
invaded by negro prowler. The rightful
occupant Of the room gave battle and man
aged to keep his valuables, but only after
he had been severely battered up by the
negro thief. The negro escaped through
the window and down the IRE escape.
When the stick-up draws his pistol and
orders you to produce your valuables the
part Of wisdom is to deliver. Whom the
night worker enters your bedroom, turn
asleep. The history of these crimes shows
that the men that commit them will kill

THE character of the men employed in
sticking up the public furnishes key to
at least some of the causes. 1 would say
that sensational Hterature-the yellow
back kinds one of the most prolific
causes. The country has been flooded with
it for years, and the period during which
writer's of cheap fiction began to make he
roes out of the most despicable criminals
was coincident with the inauguration Of
the wave of stick-ups that is rolling
over the whole country The stick
and score of armed gamblers by
a man Of Burke's type carries with 1t a
glamour of daring that appeals strongly to
the ina gination OF thousands of boys, and
when these crimes, clothed as fiction, are
scattered broadcast over the country they
are bound to have disastrous effect. 1t
is natural process for the adventurous
Chicago boy to reason If Burke could i'm
mortalize himself in crime and make thou
sands so easily, the boy in Chicago can
operate at home just as easily and safely.
The yellow-back should be suppressed.

morning land so It was thought only
fair to get a definite statement from
him before taking any action at an.
With that in view a Subcommittee was
appointed to wait on the Governor
on Thursday to find out firstly, if he
were opposed to the conventions nomi-
nee for the shrievalty and secondly, il
he were supporting the candidacy of
Henry. On Thursday morning the
Governors statement appeared in print
so that disposed of the first question.
1--WE called on the Governor and he
admitted the authenticity of the state
ment published over his signature
stating that he was opposing Brown
and in answer to the second question he
said that he was supporting Henry.
That was really all there was to the
interview.
"As far as the conversation went,
there was a good deal said of greater or
less Importance but in the matter of
the Hawaiian women waiting to get
their husbands wages so that they
might not waste their money, matter
of which the governor made special
mention in his letter, 1 pointed out to
him that this had been a custom in
Honolulu as long as he or 1 could re-

Queen to Militant street and then
straight up to the government build
ing. The Governor asked the High
Sheriff what he wanted and Mr.. Henry
replied that he had come to speak with
him about that ms tier of the sheriff
ship. After the matter had been stated
whereby Rawlins was to be nominated
for sheriff by the Civic Federation and
was to receive the nomination of de-
putty sheriff, it was stated that Kala-
kiela could withdraw from the regular
Republican ticket at the last moment
The Governor then turned to Kalakiela
and asked him what he thought of that;
Kalakiela replied that was all right that
he would retire in favor of myself If
the Governor wished it. I then said to
Governor Carter that if Kalakiela was
to resign that that nomination would
be vacant and that the Republican con-
vention could be called together and
could secure the nomination Governor
Carter replied no, that it could not be
arranged that way for if 1 were reg
ularly nominated by the Republican
convention 1 would have to pledge my
self to support the straight ticket AS

for if l won 1 would be deputy sheriff

ed 1 would be given a good position by

The South Is certainly demonstrating
through the assistance OF the Federal
marine corps, that the yellow fever
can be controlled successfully, and that
in all future years, there will not be 90
much fear Of its spread. One thing is
certain, and that is that at the first In
dication of the appearance of this
dreaded disease on American soil in
the future, it will be taken in hand
when it should be and not permitted
to get the start it even this year had
before arrested. Since the Federal
authorities took hold at New Orleans
the fever has been held to dimishing
point instead Of allowed to spread out
its grasp to paralyze the entire South
land as in years past. Science when
manifest and applied means much for
any section, and this year has certain
ly demonstrated that the Government
knows its business sometimes, and at
tends to it. Be Of good cheer, this is
the last year to be known as yellow
fever season.
