CITY OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER
THE PURPOSE At a recent investi
OF THE LAW gation of city jail
methods in the fair city of Tacoma
the police station matron expressed
it as her opinion that " the law fras
made to punish folks, and I don't be
lieve in giving prisoners pillows and
sheets." This matron, an excellent
woman according to her lights, had
the ancient interpretation of the law
deeply impressed upon her mind.
Oregon City is fortunate in having
some officials who differ quite radical
ly with this matron of the old school.
While they know that the law is de
signed to punish evil-doers, they also
appreciate that it is designed to pro
tect those who are trying to lead
honest lives. Owing to this fact a
man is today working in Clackamas
county, and so doing his best to sup
port his wife and child, who other
wise might be lying idle in jail and
indirectly forcing his wife to become
a county charge. Because of certain
features of the case more than usual
credit is reflected upon the Oregon
City and Clackamas county officials
who had the courage of their convic
tions, and who made it possible for
this man to step from behind the
bars and into a place that ne is hew
ing for himself in the social struc
ture. The man once was convicted of
wrong-doing, and was sent to prison.
There by good behavior he earned a
parole. While in prison he learned
a trade, and upon his release he went
to work at his trade. For reasons
which must have seemed good and
sufficient to the man he did not join
a certain labor organization, and ac-
cording to his statement, the labor
organization thereupon set itself to-j
work to make life unpleasant for him.
In time he left his former abode
left it 30 days before his parole
period was complete. And in time
he came to this county with his wife
and child, and after paying down a
sum of money upon his home, started
in to earn his living, support his fam
ily and pay the balance upon his lit
tle place. Technically this man had
broken his parole, yet he may have
had extenuating reasons for thus
breaking faith with those who gave
him his second chance in lite.
Be that as it may, he subsequently
got into a quarrel not of his seeking,

Opposite Court House
and in defending his life against
heavy odds, and what he believed to
be desperate attack, used a deadly
weapon, inflicting a flesh wound up
on another man concerned in the
same fight. The man was arrested,
and at his preliminary hearing was
recognized as a breaker of his parole
elsewhere. Friends stood ready to
furnish a heavy cash bail for his ap
pearance to answer trial for the 'use
of a deadly weapon, but the man',
knowing that his past had been dis
covered, refused to accept this bail,
and gave himself up to the. custody
of the sheriff. News of his where
abouts was sent to the prison from
which he had broken parole, and tha
authorities of that institution took
steps to secure his return.
Acyrding to the old idea of the
law, this man should have been sent
back to prison,' there to serve out an
extendedterm for breaking his parole.-
His later good behavior, his ef
forts to redeem himself, his life as a
good citizen would have gone for
naught. The brand of the "convict
was upon him, and therefore he was
damned.
This man had friends, however,
who did not have the old punitive
idea of the law. They believed that
this man was honestly trying to lead
a new life,' and that his second
trouble was not of his own seeking.
They rallied to his defense and aid,
and by presenting a new legal angle
of the case brought him once again
before local authorities. Bail money
for the man's second offense was de
posited in court, and County Judge
Beatie, Sheriff Mass and Deputy Dis
tric Attorney Stipp were asked to de
cide whether or -not, in view of all
the circumstances, this man should
be returned to prison. These three
officials of the law, in their several
capacities, decided that in this case
the man had done no intentional and
criminal wrong, that he had. made ev
ery honest endeavor -to live down the
past and start life anew, and that it
was the duty of the law to protect
him, and not to persecute him. And
as a result legal ways were found to
bring about his discharge from the
peril of return to prison for further
punishment.
The man, thus freed of an over
i hanging dread which must have

STEALING AN UMBRELLA.
There are laws against most kinds
of theft, but some varieties of larceny
are too small for the law. It may not
be so in theory, but it is so in practice:
A man who will steal an umbrella
would steal anything else if bethought
he could" get away with it' - ' '
We make a joke of this thing, but
In reality it is not a joke. No ques
tion that involves a moral principle Is
a joke.
The man who takes another's um
brella is not only a thief, but a cow
ard. He has not the courage for other
kinds of larceny, for he fears the law.
Yet the theft of, an umbrella is as
much a violation of the moral law as
any other form of larceny.
Here is a case in point that came
under my observation. The Incident
occurred in a boarding house in a large
'city.. One of. the boarders bought a
new "umbrella .and deposited It in the;
hall on his entrance. Dpon leaving he
discovered that his umbrella was gone,
but that in its place was an old one
with a similar handle. On the handle
of this one were scratched initials, but
they were not the initials of any of
the boarders. The man whose umbrella
had ,heen stolen naturally refused to
take this substitute bearing some one
else's mark. v ;;'. - ' .
He supposed it a "'mistake,, but the
next morninj; . when .the Bubject was
mentioned nobody Seemed ready to
rectify the error. One man. however,
said that he had also bought a new
umbrella the previous morning and
made other. remarks; that" left an un
pleasant impression -on -the minds of
several of those pfesetit The incident
there dropped, but the unpleasant im
pression remained. . ' ' ;."
It was evident that there was a
thief among them and the most despi
cable kind of a thief at that. The
money loss was small, but the princi
ple was big.
The suspicion forced upon these peo
ple was that this individual was in
the habit of taking umbrellas that did
not belong to him. that he had pre
viously picked up the one with the
strange initials and In turn had left
this and taken the new one belonging
to his fellow boarder.
A small thing, yon say? No. It was
not a small thing. It was petty, yes.
which made It all the worse, but habit
ual stealing is never a small thing.
; The only man to tie to Is one who
is honest from principle, not because
he is afraid of the law.
