REV. cox IS AGAINST
CAPITAL PUNISHMENT
Pendleton, Oregon.
oct. Il, 1890.


Editor East Oregonian:
hac been oft misquoted and there
are lot Of statements going for which
am not responsible, so am trying tC
make myself understood.
F'lrst-As to the five boys signing
a statement that they were not abused,
by any Of the three officers named in
their statement, it true. These men
the boys said did not administer the
third degree to them. but somebody
let others into the Jail that. did
secondly-They definitely stated
stated that all the abuse. after the
verdict of guilty was arrived at was
that Mr., Sinclair put them into sepa-
ratio cells, took away their reading
matter and shut off their light and
used abusive language to them.
Thirdly wish people would be
careful not to state anything that they
do not know to be definitely true. eth
er about officers, prosecuting attorney
myself of others. II Is wrong in the
extreme so to do.
Some have said that am upholding
lawlessness. that Is absolutely untrue.
I am as strong and sound on law en-
forcement, as any judge anywhere in
the land. Now my position Is this.
We as a state have no right to repeat
murder by executing any one, 1t is
Just as wrong in the sight of God to in
flict capital punishment as It was
wrong for Hart TO kill our friend Til
Taylor. but this poor fellow has been
offlicted with mental deficiency ever
since he was four years old at which
time he had measles, scarlet fever,
chicken. pox. all one after another and
has been defective ever since. And
I am persuaded that this man should
be incarcerated for the rest of his nat
llral life but hung, never.
The next two, owens and Rathie
are perhaps worthy of life sentence
by reason of the many things they
did in iail; but to my mind the extreme
penalty Is an excess of justice to sas
the least thereof.
AS far as these two are concerned
owens in particular is a hard crimlha.
and should be taken care of but nol
hung. Why shall we go backworo
and mar the name of our beloved state

Departmental sessions followed the

tion Mr.. Brumbaugh talked on The

the images and ideals youngster has
3nouid not be destroyed but should be
cultivated. All stories that are so fiu~
,itious that child's imagination is
aroused should not be scoffed at. The
child should not be punished for such
but the parent or teacher should try
TO make that story just as large as
possible by suggesting things that
might have happened.
One of the NEST instructive lectures
yesterday was that given by Prof.
Klemme on 1.-The Aim in Teaching.
Mr.. Klemme emphasized individuality
and stressed understanding and teach
ing the student as an individual and
not at a member of class, all of
whom have the same interests and
mental qualities.
THE greatest fault of our public
schools is that we make no place for
the genius in the school group" Mt.
Klemme said. Some students fail to
grasp or take an interest In a certain
subject and because of this some
teachers and instructors class them
as a failure and give up in despair.
The aim Of the teacher should be to
prepare each and every boy and girl
to be best possible benefit to himself
and others, physically, mentally and
spiritually"
Yesterday Mr.. Klemme met all the
teachers who have graduated from the
State Normal School and
Mr.. Gentle met those who claim the
Oregon State Normal School.

To accommodate the large number
of teachers in the city many people
have opened their homes and are fur
