,Gefman Loot In War Offered To
 Loos Citizens

Paris. October 29-The inhabitants of Loos. who has lived a year under German rule in sight of the British lines before the town was recaptured September 26th, have been transport ed to the Pyrenees to be sheltt red there until their twon, now under the continual fire of German batteries, be- comes inhabitable again.
 They brought with them copies of papers published by the German auth critics in the French language in Bel gium and circulated in northern ous advertisements that are occupying ties on the supposition< that they re- Belgium and put on sale by the Ger mans.
 One advertisement runs: "A thous- and secondhand electric motors and dynamos for sale-''
 Among the others are the following: Sensational offering of 3500O ma chimes. new or nearly new, at half their value. including crushers. roll ing mills, mixers and hydraulic press es, pumps, steam boilers and loconno- biles.'
 Selling out at factory prices 500 pianos. first makes
 'sOne hundred and fifty thousand bottles of champagne for sale at prices that defy competition"
 The houses inserting these adver- fsements are said to be German firms that have established themselves in Brussels since the occcupation.

posa1 for the cure of the jail evil is tnat prisoners sentenced for any but the br1efest terms be sent to state farms. A state farm for male rnisde- meants 16-21 years of age is in pro cess of establishment in New York In Indiana 1905 acres have been pur- chased for a state institution for mis- demeanants, and the construction of bu1Id1nigs has been begun. The crea- tion of institutions of this character IS the practically unanimous desire of reformers in this field
 (b)Payments to prisoners in the na- ture of wages. The object of this is to support the lrisoner's dependents. Payments to conYicts are optional with prison authorities in a number or states. and the way seems clear for the adoption of the principle with respect to the naisdemeanant class. In the administration of the Kansas City Municipal Farm up to $1.O0 a day may be allowed the family of any pris- oner.
 (c)Revision or sentences. The prin- clple of systematic revision of sen tences on the basis of more complete knowledge of the criminal and of his action subsequent to conviction has been established through the success of the indeterminate sentence acts The principal needs yet to be extend ed misdemeanant class.
 (d) Habitual offender acts. A recent study at Springfield, I11inios, shows that 45 per cent. of those convicted in the city court are repeaters. The desir- ability of plan of sentence and treatment which taken into considera- ton the repetition of offenses is gen orally conceded.
 (e) Educational work and mental exan1ination. A school operated sucf cessfully for several years at the Ball timore City Jail cannot be Ignored. Both school work and classification within the institution should be based on thorough mental examination of every prisoner.

ISLE OF MANIS . NEARLY BANKRUPT;
 HARD HIT BY WAR

London, Oct. 29-No part of the United Kingdom has been so hard hit by the war as the Isle of Man, which is now on the verge of bankruptcy because the Imperial Treasury in sists on the wiping out of the deficit of $120,000 before it will sanction the relief of distress. Where the money is to come from is problem as the proposed remedy of higher duties and taxes will fall short of re- quirements. The island might swal- low it's pride and annex itself to the neighboring country of Lancaster, but tradition and sentiment revolt at the idea. Although Man is only 32 by 12 miles, it's political constitution is said to be the oldest in Europe, its Ian guage, a gaelic dialect, is peculiar to the island and home rule has been the privilege of the Manxman through the ages
 When the war came, the heavy tourist and holiday trade was cut i off, The swift packet boats were taken over by the Admiralty and the popular. Man then became a concen- tratfon camp of alien enemies, who now number 10000 or less than three times its total native population. These camps helped to save the sit uation for the island farmers, all though a poor substitute for the flood of tourists who used to come. It is now proposed, that the government use the hotels and lodging houses, whose owners are in great distress, as hospitals for convalescent soldiers. One of the relief measures proposed by the Manx parliament which the IrnDerfal Treasury refuses to en- dorse. is a. grant of $25o,0 to dis trsssed boarding house keepers

BRITISH SUBSIDIES
 FOR SHELTER PLANTS

London. October 2s-Tne payment of a government subsidy for a period of twenty years on spelter produced at works in Great Britian from ore .'or Empire origin has been officially recommended by the Council of the London Chamber of Conmeee. The bonus is to be payable only when the monthly average falls below $115 a ton, this bringing the lowest price at which sfHe1ters can operate profitab- 1y in England, according to testimony taken by a London committee The amount of the bonus is to be suffici- ent to raise the months price to $115 This figure compares with the present war price of about $34a.
 The subsidy is regarded as a neces- sary preliminary te inducing private capital to put many in the new smelt- ing works in England.

DARK JAIL CELL IS OFTEN SCHOOL AND CHURCH OF THE LAW BREAKER
The Reform of This Archaic Institution Is Becoming
 of Conscious Social Policy Toward the AIisdemeanant

Have you ever been in the local jail or lookup in your community? If not make it a visit the next time you have an hour or two to spare.
 As you stand before t14e dark, un- sanitary cells and the prisoners idling their minds away, you will be look ing at the whole process of treatment of the man who breaks the petty laws of the state. The jail is the mis- demeanant's place of temporary de- tention, his abode while waiting trial, his prison after sentence. It is his school, the haunt of his leisure hours, the place where most of his thinking is done, and too often it is his church.
 The jail is still doing a big business. The latest figures show that 32 per cent of the population of penal insti- tutOns are in county and municipal jails and work houses Worse still, 91.5 per cent of all prisoners commit ted during a single year are sent to these institutions.
 Agency of Vice
 Peno1ogists are agreed that the jail is in nine eases out of ten "an agency of vice and a school of crime" Some of these fortress-like structures are inscribed with dates as far back as 1836-the days of Andrew Jackson, of the invention of the steamboat, of the pioneer struggle.
 The past generation haS naoe some improvements in. the jail. These had to do chiefly with cleanliness, food, moral supervision, classification of prisoners, abolition of the fee system, state inspection, and standardization of jail rules and of specifications for construction and repairs.
 Today we are coming to something better, says William =. Cross, general secretary of the NationaIs Conference of Charities and Correction. We are approaching a conscious social policy in the treatment of the ntsdemean- ant Newer ideas have come into prominence. Jail reform is but one aspect of the problem of the petty of fender. MT. Cross describes these new ideals as follows:

QUOTA
 SYSTEM ANCIENT
 CONSCRIPTION PLAN
Lord Kitchener's Project Is <' Interesting Survival of /
 Old Times.

London, Oct. 29-The quota system which Lord Kitchener is sad to ad- vocate as a compromise between the present voluntary enlistment system and conscription is a. historic method of raising troops, for it existed in England from Saxon times down to the year 1892. It is now merely sus- pended, not dead.
 By the quota system, Great Britain would be divided into military dis tricts, each of which is required to of recruits. It is a form of pull sion, but a democratic form that stood the test of eight. centuries. Its spe- cia1 merits are it's appeal to local pa triotiSnn and it's civil control Each locality has the power to enforce en- large number of additional voluntary recruits will be found just because the affair is managed by the civil au- thorities and the appeal is more per sona1 and less emotional than by the military recruiting with their bands and speech making actors
 There are many statutes on the English books relating to the quota system, which can be enforced at any time by order of the Privy Coun- ciI with the approval sof Parliament Some changes were made from the old methods in 1757 when the various counties were instructed to propor- ton their quota among the various parishes where the men, in ease of necessity, were to be chosen by bal lot This law placed the age of ser vice from IS to 30 years, exempting all men with more than one child born in Wed1ock. Forces for the Ma poIeonic wars were thus raised In 1882 the old militia passed from the control of the counties to the war of flee, and the system of district se1ec- tion was allowed to lapse.

Illinois, (which includes Chicago) du1f ing the first three years operation of the adult probation law the earn ings of probationers amounted to ov- CT $1,OOO,OOO.
 (b) Parole. Conditional pardon has lately begun to be adopted for misde- meanants. It is not uncommon at municipal warehouses. A successful instance appears in Onondega, County New York.
 (c)Out-work for local prisoners. It is quite common for local prisoners to be used on road work. WWisconsin so employs them, turning over earn ings to the prisoners to the prisoners dependents.
 (d) Honor system. Although there has not been the opportunity to build upon tn rustworthiness of prisoners in case of misdemeanants that there has been in case of felons, occasi ons for it seems to increase with the em- ployment of prisoners in larger mum bers, as on municipal or state farms.
 (f) Change in System of Commit ment for fines. One of the most ab- tenn of treating of petty criminals is that of Imprisonment in lieu of pay ment of fines. Unless graded accord ing to the ability of the offender to pay, fiping is, a poor means of attain ing justice; and in case of certain C1dSSSS, ike IL serves mere ly as a licensing system. The Interna- ttona1 Prison Congress has advocated that fines be made payable ininstaI- ments or on public work.
 Rehabilitation
 III. Rehabilitation of the offender
 (a) Special treatment for special classes. In most communities it ifs still common to find the Jail chief means of handling inebriates, vag- rants. cases of wife desertion an non Predetermined. Other tpstitutions and modes of treatment should be used for these special classes.
 (b) Cooperation with community agencies. Juvenile courts, backgrounds homes for discharged prisoners, as- sociated charities, societies for the re- formation of drunkards, boards of health, and a great number of other agencies should be definetly focused on the problem of crime as any other penal institution.
 (c) Case work. What ever be the na,- ture of the ma1ajustment through the offender is finally committed to prison the prime need is for some agency to under take to see through to the end the process of his rehabilitation. The penal institution ought definite 1y to take part in this process.
 ". Improvement in the process pre- liminary to conviction.
 (a) Psychopaf1fc study. Recent studies of the febIe-n1inded delinquent

the establishment of bureaus of psy- chopathic research in connection with courts and penal institutions, with such results as the production of Dr. William Healy's revolutionary work. The individual delinquent, may be re- garded as heralds of the ultimate es- tablishment of the principle of psycho- pathic study as a. basis of Judgment and treatment of criminals.
 (b) Reforms in legal procedure and police adIninfStratiOn.-The report of the so-called Merriam Crime Commits sion in Chicago this year depicts in a convincing way the almost hopeless tangle of out-grown legal forms and bad police practices at the basis of the crime that heads up in the local .jatls- The Springfield Survey revealed the fact that only S4 per cent of those arrested finally paid penalties.
 Supervision
 (a) State supervision and control. The principle of state control of the treatment of rnisdeTneanors is clear, for crimes are committed against the direction of improvement of state su- pervision and extension of direct state control of local jails.
 (b) Statistics-The meagerness and useless quality of statistics of nnfsde- meanants in America, is notorious. In the comprehensive and telling figures of the English Prison Commission and of auth horities in other countries.
 The principle of punishment Is not eliminated from the system here out lined, but rather is it madS more ef- fective. The local jail is left virtually a place of detention only, and that elusive ideal of our penology, separate confinement for the unconvicted pr1s- oner, is brought a, step nearer.

 DIRECTED BY AERO vULTURES

labor of turning the wrecked Ger man into British trenches. of making nek dugouts, traverses and parapets and laying out barbed-wire had to be done before the Termans concen- trating swept back in a counterattack which was expected and which came. A Niagara of German gunftre added to that of the British announces an other German effort. So far the Bri- tish have held their new positions; and when the Germans were attacking in one part of the line the British repulsed the German attack and took five hundred yards from the Ger mans in an adjacent part.

LACKFOOT COURIER
SUSPENDS PUBLICATION

w. H. Hildreth, who took over The
Blackfoot Courier couple of weeks
ago with the intention of conducting
it as weekly paper, canvassed the
whole situation carefully last week
and reached the conclusion that there
was not enough business in Black
foot for three newspapers, and aban-
doned his plans for building up the
ourier.
Mr.. Hildreth came well recon-
mended as one of the best-informed
and most practical newspaper men
of the state, and the fact that he
reached conclusions and acted upon
them at the beginning, ought TO be
taken as authority on the subject.
r. Hildreth laid in a stock of print
ing house goods at the outset, which
he disposed of upon their arrival,
and took the north bound train Mon
day afternoon, looking for location
to which he could move the Courier
plant
