cation to local agent of railroad

In case the railroad company fails

one until all previous demurrage is
paid, should there be any unpaid.
The railroad company is COM

GIVE THE BOY A CHANCE

/ We want to talk to you about your
boy
We will assume that he is, appar-
emily, an everyday, ordinary boy
with the usual amount of spirits,
mischief and hard-headedness. We
will also suppose that he is occa-
sionally just about as big a handful
as either you or his mother cares to
contend with, and that he has his
share of ignorance and wisdom, af-
lection and temper. good and bad
We will agree that he seems to
have in him the making of a good
average man.
But what else has he? What else
is inside of that heads What else
is hidden in the personality that
looks out of those eyes? What else
is hidden in there, locked deep in
that undeveloped brain? What else
can those hands do some doy, those
All the human ability that there
is, or ever has been, or ever will be,
may be sleeping in the soul of that
everyday boy. We like to think
this as the miracle of childhood.
There are infinite possibilities in
every child.
Yours may have it in him to be as
eloquent as Cicero. as strategic as
Hannibal, as poetic as Milton, or as
melodious as Beethoven. He may be
as great a patriot as Washington, "a
profound a thinker as Darwin, or as
magnetic leader as Mahomet If
there are to be any great men and
women of tomorrow they must de-
velop from the boys and girls of to-
day.
You do not want to take the
chance OF robbing yours OF what be-
longs to them.

found in the minds of free men who
observe the Inconsistency of a find
ing of not guilty and confinement in
the penitentiary.
But such is the Graves law, and
it is the duty of citizens and officials
to comply with it. 1t should be
said that the law contemplates a
treatment of the criminal insane"
to accord with their mental condi-
ton, and that any difference in
treatment of convicts and criminal
insane" is not only justified by the
law, but is to be encouraged. If the
state should adhere to the policy of
sending the criminal insane" to
Walla Walla. it should, in justice to
itself as we'll as the persons found
not guilty of crime because of insan-
ity, completely separate them from
the convicts, and should, in addition
thereto, afford them treatment
equivalent to that available at the
state hospitals for the insane.
Just now the cases OF criminal
insane" are those about which there
has been wide expression of pub
lie sentiment, growing out of the be-
lief that the plea Of insanity to
charge of crime has been entirely
too frequent. In time. however,
there will be other cases that will
illustrate the unwisdom of practical
ly overthrowing a verdict of not
guilty by committing persons to an
institution established and primarily
maintained to cOnfine and punish
the guilty A mother may, in Pc
piod of dementia, kill or attempt to
kill her child An information may
be filed against her and plea of
insanity may send her to Walla
Walla although jury finds her not
guilty because of insanity Such a
case as this would rouse the public
Immediately to the need of specitl
treatment for the criminal insane"
and If they shall be kept at Walla
Walla, to the need of a building and
grounds distinct and separate and
wholly removed from the building
and grounds used by the convicts.

HOW GRAVES LAW WORKS

The unwisdom of sending to the
penitentiary persons found not gull
ty of crime because of insanity is
demonstrated again in the effect it
has on prison discipline 1t is re-
ported that the prisoners at Walla
Walla feel bitter and even rebellious
because Sidney Sloane and Chester
Thompson were not kept in stripes
and are now treated somewhat diff
ferently from ordinary prisoners.
This but natural Convicts cannot
understand why anybody is sent to
the penitentiary unless it is for pun
ishment. They assume that Thomp-
son is sane or he would not be sent
to prison, although they may know
he was found not guilty because of
insanity. Any confusion in the mind

nature of the fire and the start that
it had was such that many thought
there was little hope of saving any
of the buildings south of the Ellis

were moved out so as to save them
from loss

The letter which appears in the
Public Forum today is not perhaps
without some foundation. The boys
certainly had a good time the 4th
of July, if plenty of noise may be
considered good time. 1t is al
most as impossible to keep the small
boy from making a noise on the
Glorious Fourth as it is to prevent
the sunrise.
The fact, however, that fire works
were turned loose in all directions
the evening of the Fourth was evil
dence that the boys exceeded the
bounds of propriety and transgress-
ed upon the rights of others.
The criticism NO doubt will be
well taken by those who needed
such and passed up by those who
were neither guilty of a commission
of any intentional wrong or the
omission of any public duty in at
tempting to stop the performance.

people generally kept back from the
fire and allowed the companies to
