In q case where the usual home rem

EVIL AMONG THE PRISONERS
HabItual Criminal Injuries Wronodoer
With Better Aspirations-New
Era Editorial.

The habitual offenders released from
prison, who continually persist In their
criminal pursuits, are the men who
bring disrepute on men now In and out
of prison who strive to follow the
straight path, says writer in the New
Era, federal penitenttary. Leaven'
worth. Though these criminals are
reaping the harvest Of their misdeeds
and their sins are steadily finding them
out yet they cast . reflection on us
that is q barrier to even better condi'
tions within our walls. They are the
men who shatter our hopes of speedy
release by piling up statistics of dam
aging record against us. They are the
men who are responsible for the con.
servative policy and cautious decision
when our own lives are in the balance
of consideration for more privileges
more paroles-liberty and freedom.
They are the men who wreck our
homes and tear down the structures OF
hope that we have spent years in build
ing. They are the builders of more
prisons-architects of abuse-tnstru'
mentalists of barbarism in our penal
institutions.
Therefore we should, with firm re-
solve. wreck the ambitions of our de.
stroyers of salvation. We should unite
our forces and bring every pressure to
bear to bring them to their right
senses of thinking. Society cannot,
through selfish economics, hope to
make better men out Of habitual crtmt'
nails nor reform even first offenders.
The habitual criminal is more to be
pitied than censured. He must not be
deprived of his chance to make good
and 1t is society's duty to uplift him.

Dor the Press views it, a great part
of the military force of the country
was right on the spot and yet
Gen. Funston waited a week before
crossing the border.
Right on the spot" happens to
lac frontier OF more than 1900
miles, along which the army was
scattered for police purposes. Only
a single track railroad has been
available for the transportation OF
troops and supplies at Columbus,
and if the army had been five times
as large its size would probably
have made little difference in the
length Of time necessary to get ready
for an expedition of this peculiar
character.
Even after the German army was
modified it was possible 10 send
only $4,000 troops into Belgium for
the first invasion, which shows that
preparedness never means prepared
ness in the sense that an army can
be made instantly ready for any
thing that may happen.
The war department has shown
sound military sense in giving Gen
Funston a free hand and in refus-
ing to nag him into starting before
he was ready. This is serious bus
mess. 1t is not moving picture
