DEALING WITH CHILDREN
IN CRIMINAL COURTS
The Child Should Be Regarded as a
Ward and Not as an Enemy of
The State.
Associated Press Special.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 17.-''To pre-
vent children from becoming crimi
nails is the best investment a govern
ment can make" said William
Trant, police magistrate of Regime,
Sask, Canada, in an address before
the American Prison association to-
day He declared Canada and the
United States should cooperate in
creating Improved laws for dealing
with delinquent Juveniles
All taint that attaches to crimi-
nal law should be removed in deal
ing with offending children" said
Mr.. Trant
1.-THE child ought not to be tried
for anything There should be no
charging with offence no com
initial. sentence. As an Amer
lean penaIogist has said, the great
thing to realize is that the affair is
not the state versus Johnny, but the
state for Johnny The probation
officer should attend the Juvenile
Court not as prosecutor but TO
represent the interests Of the child.
The child should be regarded as
ward of the state, to be cared for by
it. not as an enemy of the state TO
be punished by it. The supreme
question is: Is the parent fit per
son to continue as a guardian of
the child? If not. what ought to be
done with the child? The proceed
ings. | repeat, are not against the
child, but in its behalf Instead,
therefore, OF trial, charge, commit
tai, there should be nothing more
than an inquiry into the condition
and environment of the youngster
and the conduct of its parents. If
anyone Is on trial in the juvenile
court, it is not Johnny but his par
ents, the charge being breach OF
trust amounting to cruelty. There
shou.a be enforcement to the utter
most OF the parental obligation, The
point wish to emphasize Is that hi-
stead of trial the duty of the Juve-
nile courts should be to find out eN'
actly how the child is being reared
and discover the best tn i.g to do
under the circumstances. The state
is a loving yet prudent mother
cares for her weak and erring chill
dren and ought to see that they are
not neglected or oppressed, Young
delinuuents, as a rule, have not
strayed. They were born on the high
way to ruin. and there they are
Surely the hand Of love can lead
them into the right path.

Experimental Farms.

One of the wisest laws enacted by
the send, or any other Legislature,
was the one which authorized the
Commissioner Court of any county
to make an appropriation Of not to
exceed thousand dollars per annum
to be used in farm experiment and
demonstration work.
The Commissioner Court can
make no better investment than to
appropriate the entire sum and place
it in the hands oil competent de-
monstrator. A number of our COM
miSsioners have joined hands with
the Federal Government, thereby Sc
curing expert supervision without
cost.

farmers in this section report that
the season has been an ideal one fot
picking cotton, and in this county
more than half of the crop has been

have been the largest in number
of years, some of it probably being
due to the big new Farmers Union
gin, which has done rushing busi-
ness and been working night and

Our Cotton Money.

Our cotton crop last year sold for
approximately $220,00o,0o0 and
many of our citizens are under the
impression that this money is avail
able for building railroads, factories,
opening mines, etc. 1t is true we
exchange our cotton for gold but
while producing the cotton, we con-
sumo all our cereals and ship in
$75, 900, 900 worth of feed stuff from
other States. The Texas Grain
Dealers Association conducted es-
peciallY for this article, an exhaus-
tive investigation into our cereal
consumption. The production col
umn is taken from the Federal Agri-
cultural Department reports and the
figures in the consumed column were
furnished by the Grain Dealers As
ISOLATION:
Grain Pro. Blu Cons. Blu
Corn .1s1 100000 250,000,00C

Oats -. 24.325, 900 25,o0o,0o0
Hay-Tons I'll, 900 100000
The average price of corn is sixty
five cents, wheat one dollar; oats
forty-six cents and hay twelve dol
lars When these extensions are
made to the figures in the consump-
tion column, we find our cotton crop
has entirely disappeared.
OF course all these products are not
consumed on the farms as our cities
are composed of exclusive consum-
ers but. as whole, we are an
agricultural State and in its last
analysis, the banker and the mer-
chant is as much a farm laborer
as the hired hand that follows the
pillow and to get our net gain, we must
deduct total consumption from total
production The money to develop
Texas cannot be found by searching
our cotton fields. We must get 1t
from other sources and our principal
supply must come from outside the
State. ------
