VIII Crime Decrease?

w LLL CTLTLE D0CTSUSE!
CONSIDERING the widespread movement towards
higher ideals in public life that in full swing
thruout the country the next decade ought to
witness wonderful decrease in crime. The pessi-
mists in the present upheava the germs unres
and predict that the uncoverng of so much dishon-
esty will incite many to commit unlawful acts This
is not likely to occur. When the law is enforced
mpartally it's effect has always been wholesome and
far-reaching. Considering the present-day activity
against such concerns as the Standard Oil Co., 1t
surely appears if no partially being shown.
This is good harbnger and indicates that it is
safe for any break the law openly secretly
He who has carefully kept track of the present
movement towards civic honesty, and cannot detect
any hopeful signs for the future devoid of astute
observational powers. Every indication is of
improvement. These indications are more numerous
than many suppose Within the next ten years the
present greed will show that the battle has
not been waged in vain. In the final analysis, it
will cause remarkable decrease in crime among all
classes.

spend this fortune. Perhaps they, too, would stick

Camping Out.
WHEN the winds smell Of sulphur and everything
begins to sweter, those who afford it lose no
time in seeking the solitude Of the forest and stream
there to pitch their tent and enjoy life in barbarc
comfort and splendor.
There is nothing in city life that compete
with the healthfuness of outdoor existence during
the summer months. To be away from the roar and
haste Of the city and encamped alongside of trout
stream. is like being transported to paradise. The
freedom from all and responsibility while camp
ing out compensates one for whatever inconvenience
he may have been put to in making the trip. The
wild life of the forest however, appeals strongly
to his primitive nature that he forgets trihing mat
tiers and as he tries to fathom the immensely of
things about him. he becomes lost in admiration and
pure enjoyment of the hour. Since the days ofAdam
has continually hied himself to the tall timber,
and it is likely that he will always do so when in
quest of the unartfcial and the beautiful in nature.

OF the highest literary pursuit and attainment Pris-
oners graded and classified according to the
ofense they have committed and the frequency with
which they return to imprisonment. Is the con-
6rmed petty thief each time to be subjected to the
same treatment as the man who in burst of anger
Stays his neighbour but has otherwise led an upright
life?
We are today applying reform methods to some
so-called first offenders who never can be reformed
under the present methods and are refusing reforms
to some unfortunates who have fallen number of
times because reform never properly applied.
The for this lies in the fact that failed

Ninety nine thieves may all be thieves and yet each

and each should be subjected to different treatment
The discoveries of Professor Benedickt established
the correctness Of the claim that mental treatment
and development is the sure method of reformation
1t the prisoner be amenable to this, he should be dis
charged at the proper time and not until then.
My conclusions, then are these: That the same
care which is exercised in depriving person of his
liberty should be employed in returning it to him.
That the judicial function should cease when per-
has been adjudged guilty of crime and that then
the presiding Judge should simply commit the de-
