HERE’S A CHANCE FOR GOVERNOR WEST In the Portland Evening Telegram of July 12th appeared the followin g criticism on Gov. West's prison re form policy, signed by a person un der the non de plume o f "N ear So cialist.” There la much food for in telligent thought In what the "N ear Socialist" haa to say about Oregon'.i grand stand play governor. Here Is the criticism: " W h i l e one elt licn o f Astoria — Governor Oswald W es t— seta at lib erty murderers, rut throats, bur glars. highwaymen and rape flenda who hare been sent to the peniten tiary for committing heinous crimes, and cheats the gallows every time a foul murderer is sentenced to death In Oregon by holding up the sen tence. another Vitlxen o f the same town, a minor court Judge, sends to Jail for SO days Robert Johnson, a poor fisherman, and mulcts him of the only tools o f his trade, a fishing boat and equipment, because he c o m mitted the henlous offense o f catc h ing salmon, ao as to provide for his wife and children, without having paid the beggarly sum o f $5 for a state license And this is called Jus tice! Johnson has already served 25 days In Jail, while his family Is reported aa needing hla support, and a few friends are vainly seeking to get his release so that he may pro vide for his wife and children, and possibly thereby save them from hav ing to appeal for public charity. " Y o u r well fed and prosperous of- Itcial often exacts the pound o f ffesh for a minor violation o f the law. for daring to Ignore the majesty o f the statutes, made and provided (In a trade In the legislative hall where many laws are made on the principle o f 'you tickle me and I'll tickle y o u ') and yet wonders that such en force ment o f the law is follow ed by the growth o f socialism and organis ed opposition to things governm ental aa they exist. “ If the man who was convic ted o f killing Saloonkeeper Tracy o f Junc tion City, a few years ago. was en titled to be released from the peni tentiary and placed on the payroll o f the atate o f Oregon at Salem, by a citizen o f Astoria, was not that oth er act o f the oth er citizen o f Astoria. In sending a poor fisherman to pris on for 50 days and confiscating his boat and flahlng gear, too stern an enforcement o f the law? " I f the Humph rys brothers, who foully murdered the lone widow st Philomath, according to thefr own confession, had their just death sen tence postponed in an effort to save them finally from the gallows, are receiving justics. what o f the wo man. Mrs Rohsrt Johnson, and her children, who are deprived o f the support o f the husband and father for 50 days la nd even beyond that, for he has lost his means of gaining a livelihood, his boat and gear being conffscated by the grwat state o f Or egon ) ? " T h e constitution o f the state o f Oregon says that no man shall be Imprisoned for debt Was Joh n son's unpaid license fee more than a small debt? " O u r machinery o f g overnm ent is still too Incomplete, much as has a l ready been written into the statute books, and one o f its greatest needs right now Is a tribunal that will take up. without the necessity o f an expensive appeal, an unjust sentence and protect the poor and ignorant from the effects o f the arbitrary o r unjuat infliction o f exaggerated sen tences at the hands o f heartless o r careless m inor ju d g es.” POTATO SHOW COMMITTEE REPORT PRIZES NEXT WEEK Next week this paper will print the premium Hat offered by the Ked mond Commercial Club for the Sec ond Annual Potato Show to be held at Redmond on October 8th and 9th Very liberal rash prizes have been hung up by the citizens of Redmond.
