GOV. WEST TRUSTS CONvIcTS

1.-THE only honor lacking in the aver
age criminal is that which Is wrenched
from him by incivility. distrust and
inhumanity. Extend to a convict the
courtesy, confidence and trust due him
as a man and he will respond with
more honor than the average person
who has never seen the bars, the dun
geon or the dismal gray walls of a
penitentiary."
Basing his action or this bit OF
philosophy. Gov. Oswald West Of Ore.
gon recently threw open the barred
doors Of the Oregon state p~enitentiary
and turned more than 200 convicts out
into the inviting forests and fields to
serve the remainder Of their terms
without guards. stripes, chains or
stockades.
With one sweep the dungeon, the
dark cell, the striped suits, the ball
and chain and the gallows were wiped
out as unnecessary parts of the insti-
tuition and in their stead was estab-

UNCLE JOE, rs, STILL YOUNG

Uncle Joe" Cannon celebrated his
seventy-sixth birthday at Washington
the other day under a cloud Of grief.
The night before he ex~ultantly IN
nounced that he was going to observe
the day by dissipating wildly. A cir
Gus was in town and he was going to
take the afternoon and, II necessary,
the evening of and go to see the lions
and tigers and the ~hippograffe and the
beautiful lady acrobats and the hair
raising trapezists.
Instead Of that he went meekly up
to the home on Congressman Weeks,
Of Massachusetts, with his daughter
and spent the evening d%ecorously
there.

Governor of Minnesota.

ReapportiOnment, the rock upon
which state administration and legis'
lature split last session, is the issue
between house and senate in the spe'
cial session of the legislature which,
at IL o'clock this morning
A deadlock between the two houses
is threatened.
Effort on the part of the senators
to sign up a majority of members
pledged to consider nothing but the
passage Of a direct primary law and
a corrupt practices act, succeeded, and
the quiet announcement was given out
that the senate was prepared to
stand pat" Before doing SO, an al.
lance with the Democrats was formed
On the other hand, the house mem
bers gathered and decided upon a
course of action in direct opposition
to the position of the senators. They
drew a circle around six things for
which they propose to stand.
These measures are:
Statewide primary law.
Corrupt practices act.
Federal income tax amendment.
Federal amendment relative to cleo
ton Of United States senator's.
Increase in the gross earnings tax
for railroads.
Reapportionment.
Insistence by the house members
upon this program means a deadlock
between house and senate, which may
become a test Of endurance. 1t was
decided by the house members that
they would agree upon a program re-
lative to the statewide primary, the
corrupt practices act and the two fed
eral amendments to the constitution.

On March 80, France inaugurated a

France has had much experience In
the government of the North African
