Take The Reform School Oul Of Politics

The State Reform School with only
NJ boys in custody on Nov. ist., has
cost $23. 2s per month per boy the past
year The appropriations for the past
two years were $40. i5O. or 1886 per
capita for the biennial period.
The buildings are large enough for
five times as many inmates and the
farm Is one Of the largest owned by the
state, The cost of administration and
management has been 81. 55 per boy per
month. about double that of other in
stitutions
A few Of the older boys are criminals
and might be kept at the penitentiary,
and Governor West says the rest of the
boys might better be of home, From
It's origin this institution has been made
the football Of politics.
During the past few years n reform
management has tried To make improve.
ments but has not been very successful.
Supt, Hale was Y. NJ. G. A. worker
and a young man Of the best intentions
but not u professional reform school
manager.
There is growing feeling that this
institution should be abolished unless il
can be placed in the hands of trained
expert reformatory manager who can
develop the boys industrially.

The question az 10 whether Ontario
shall lend her credit to encourage and
promote industries was carried by a
very substantial vote on Monday and
the City Council at once got busy and
appointed committees TO go to work on
the proposition.
Ontario is centrally located and is the
natural location for the manufacturing
industry of the Snake River Valley.
There is no sense in the people of this
section sending away their hogs and
buying back their bacon, hams and lard
There is no sense in the people of Ore
gon shipping her wool east and sending
east for their clothing, giving the rail-
roads two profits on everything worn
here. The same line Of argument will
hold good in many other things. There
is demand for cheese and butter and
we have the best grass and grain count
ry In the world, still we buy most of
our cheese and all our condensed milk
from the outside.
The Snake Valley produces corn bet
ter than any other section Of the west,
still all the canned corn used here Ia
shipped In from the east, there was
over s400 In freight on a car load re-
ceived here short time ago. Broom
corn also does well here and sorghum
cane, still our brooms and syrups are
shipped in.
