Whipping Post Law Has Effect
In Oregon
DECREASES CASES NINETY Per CENT
BAR ASSOCIATION WANTS AC-
REPEALED AND A STRONG
FIGHT WILL ENSUE.

PORTLAND, Jan. Ex-senator Sig
| mund Sichel, the father of the whip
ping post law" in Oregon, is loading
his suns for "a BITTER fight which will
be a feature of the legislative session.
| The bar association of Multnomah
county is at the back Of movement
to repeal the whipping post law, and
Senator Sichel, who drew up, intro
duced and successfully engineered the
hard fight which placed the law on
Oregon's statute books two years ago,
is preparing to battle against the re-
peal, tooth and nail.
Oregon is one of the few states pro-
| viding for the official whipping OF
wife heaters, and the Oregon law is
perhaps the most conservative of any.
In drafting the measure Senator Slchel
intended it to be more of deterrent
influence, preventing brutal men from
beating their wives, than as a means
tenders. That his intention was car
ried out in the actual working out of
the whipping post law is attested by
the statement of District Attorney John
Manning of Multnomah county, in
which Oregons largest city is stu
ated. Mr. Manning declares that wife
beating has decreased fully 80 per
cent since the passage of the whip
ping post law, and that. while the fin
ing and even Imprisonment Of wife
beaters for atrocious brutalities was
formerly a matter of almost daily oc-
currence, since the whipping post law
has been in force it has been neces-
sary to punish only two men at the
post.
Only in Brutal Cases.
The Sichel law is so drafted that
the penalty of official lashing is to
be administered only in the most de-
liberate and brutal cases, the fine or
term of Imprisonment serving as a
penalty where the wife beater can
show that he had been impelled to
the crime by extreme aggravatiOn, or
had other partial justification. The
criminal is further guarded from I'M
just or undue suffering at the post by
the fact that three different tribunals
must pass upon a case before the Of
fender can be sentenced.
Senator Sichel will go to the coming
session at Salem armed with the writ
ten testimonials of police judges, SUI
perior court judges and district at
torneys, warmly commencing the law,
and Governor George E. Chamberlain,
who was recently quoted as being in
favor of the repeal. has assured Sem
ator Sichel that instead of favoring
the repeal he will be one of the laws
most ardent defenders.
Senator Sichel, while acting as po
lice commissioner, witnessed the abuse
of women in the lower walks of life,
many being compelled to lead a life
| of shame under the fists II men VINO
had married them for the revenue they
could bring from the city's dives and
this determined him to devise some
means of effective protection for these
unfortunate women. In the whipping
post law this means has been found,
says Senator Sichel for the 80 per
cent decrease in wife beating mas
proved it. In mis- fight against the
laws repeal Senator Sichel will have
the enthusiastic support of the women
of the state, as well as a generous
proportion of the men.
