The Home Of : Genius.

~ SuOOUV ~ = 0vUuoUs
Beethoven was born In small house
In Bonn. His father had inherited the
vice Of drinking, and often Beethoven
and his younger brother were obliged
to take their intoxicated father home.
He was never known to utter an I'M
kind word about the man who made
his youth 20 unhappy, and he never
failed to resent It when third person
spoke uncharitably OF his fathers
frailty. Young Beethoven was thus
taught many a severe lesson in the
hard school Of adversely. but his trials
were not without advantage to him.
They gave to his character that iron
texture which upheld him under his
heaviest burdens.

A Western Governor Who Trusts
Convicts,

In the Interesting People" depart
ment of the January American Maya
zine appears an article about Cover
nor Oswald West of Oregon, who
likes to trust men. He let a life-term-
murderer out Of prison long enough
to earn money to pay off mortgage
on his father-in-law's home, the money
having been spent to hire lawyers to
defend him. Following is an extract:
"Out in Oregon there Is governor
who believes in men--even though
they have sinned against society and
the penal institution of the State.
Oswald West believes in men to such
an extent that sixty-two per cent OF
the prisoners serving time in the
Oregon State pcnitentiary are out con
honor" as it is called. A considerable
number of these men are earning an
honest living outside the prison walls,
entirely independent of any prison
discipline or oversight.-The rest are
TRUSTEES working for the State at
roads without being guarded-fre-
quently one or two hundred miles
away from the prison, and often in
thinly settled portions Of the country
where escape would be comparatively
easy. And yet fewer prisoners try to
get away under this system than in
the old days when the guards stood
armed with repeating Winchesters.
"One of Governor Vests first ex-
periences in trusting men was to re-
lease temporarily murderer serving
life sentence, simply on his word OF
honor, in order that he might earn
sufficient money to pay off the indebt-
edness on his father-in-law's home
which had beer mortgaged in order
to raise money for his legal defense.
About the middle of last January the
man reappeared at the penitentiary
after an absence Of nearly year. 'I'm
back, he said to the warden. The
mortgage is paid
when the present executive Of
Oregon came into Office the State PEN
itentiary had reputation that was
anything but enviable Discipline was
administered through methods that
had long been outlawed in many of
the penal institutions.
"Over one third of the prisoners
were unprovided with work of any
kind. Guards with loaded rifles watch
ed every foot Of the prison property,
and went with each group of prisoners
that was sent outside of the walls.
Governor West has changed all
this. He has put every able-bodied
man to work. He has removed most
of the guards. Over 200 of the $50
men now under sentence at the
Salem institution are outside Of the
walls daily without guard Of any
kind, trusted to return at night and
honor bound to do fair days work.
