THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 25, 1905.
PRISONERS CALL HER "LITTLE
Reform of Desperate and Vicious Criminals Is the Mission in Life of Mrs.
SOME years ago the Booths had a
family Quarrel and there was disaf
fection in the ranks of the Salvation
Army which the old General founded and
commands pvlth Iron hand. Out of this
disaffection grew revolt, and the son Bal
lington and his wife led the secession
movement In America. They declared
their Independence and set up a new ban
ner. This was the beginning of the Volun
teers of 'America, which has waxed strong
In numbersand Influence.
Mrs. Ballington Booth, who, with her
husband, leads the Volunteer forces, was
in Portland yesterday. She came down
from Salem, where she addressed the
state's prisoners, and spent a busy day in
the Interest of her cause. Afternoon and
evening meetings were addreesed by her
at the White Temple, and In the interim
she was engaged with local Volunteer
leadera In planning, future campaigns
She alpo dined with Dr. and Mrs. Stephen
S. Wise. Mrs. Booth, and the distin
guished rabbi were fellow-soldiers In the
struggle for civic righteousness in New
Tork when Theodore Roosevelt and Jacob
Rils were field officers.
Mrs. Booth Is a comely young matron
with a sweet face and dancing eyes. She
is eloquent of speech, animated but pol
ished In her manner. She has a splendid
eense of humor, and is almost rare enough
to be set down' as a brilliant woman. She
has a tinge of affectation, and one who
observes closely will declare that she
poses somewhat. She is a Booth by mar
riage and much egotism must be forgiven
a Booth.
Her particular branch of the volunteer
work is that of prison reform, and she
is known and loved in almost every big
prison in the land. To her the convicts
are "my boys." and to them she is"""The
Llttlp Mother."
Prison walls and iron bars have no
terrors for her. She has carried her mes
sage to the thief and murderer, repent
ant or unrepentant alike. In season and
out she has ono motive which Impels
her the betterment of those who suffor
for their sins. Thanks to her efforts hun
dreds of desperate and vicious men have
been turned to better things than plann
ing escape and revenge upon society. Hun
dreds of them have patiently served out
their terms and gone out into the world
to benave themselves.
Iir the gloomy corridors of Sing Sing,
Leavenworth and Salem she has told
"her boys" the way of life and the telling
has borne fruit. She is doing a groat
deal to make the world better, and her
reward Is coming opulently in the respect
and lovo of thousands of her fellow-countrymen
and in treasured laid up where
moth.. and rust corrupt not.
She centralizes all her energies on the
work in hand, and because of that will
discuss only prisons, prisoners and their
betterment. When an effort was made
to secure an expression concerning the
control of the social evil which seems to
be the first local problem at this time
she declined to take up the subject, in
sisting that her present mission had to
do with another phase of reform.
Mrs.vBooth seemed pleased with condi
tions at the Oregon penitentiary, and if
she is pleased nothing radically wrong
can be the matter, for she knows more
about how to run a prison than a dozen
legislative committees. Before coming to
Oregon she visited all the principal pris
ons In the West, and from here will re
turn to New York by way of Seattle and
Spokane. A. A. G.
MAKES PLEA ''OR EX-CONVICTS
Mrs. Ballington Booth Asks That
They Be Given a Chance.
To an audience that tested the seating
capacity of the White Temple, Mrs. Bal
, llngton Booth last evening protrayed the
difficulties and obstacles that have to be
faced by the convict when he emerges
from the prison walls a free man only in
words. The subject of Mrs. Booth's lec
ture was, "After Prison, What?" Mrs.
Booth 6ald that when a convict had
GOES TO YOKOHAMA
Cargo of Steamer Olmypia
Disposed Of.
3APS BUY WHAT CANNOT SEIZE
Orders to Proceed to Orient Received
After Work of Discharging Oats
Had Begun Pythomene Is
Off River.
The steamship Olympla will go to Yoko
hama with her cargo of Oregon oats. The
Japanese have decided that they might as
well buy what they cannot seize.
When the Olympia left Portland last
month it was the intention of her char
terers to land the cargo at Vladivostok,
notwithstanding they cleared her for-Moji
for orders. After coaling In British Co
lumbia an accident to the machinery
made it neceesnry for the steamer to re
turn to the Sound. Her repairs were com
pleted a few days ago, and the Olympla
was about to resume her voyage when
word was received of the blockading of
Vladivostok. The Russian agents who had
chartered the vessel then made overtures
to the owners, the Northwestern Com
mercial Company, toy cancel the charter.
It was announced yesterday that the char
ter had been canceled and the work of
discharging the steamer at Seattle was
begun, when word was received that the
oats had been disposed of to the Japanese
government. It is expected that the Olym
pla will be -able to start again today on
her trip across the Pacific.
The Japanese from now on will be heavy
buyers of feed and other supplies on this
Coast, and the winding up of the Russian
trade will have but little effect. Port
land will get Its share of the business,
and in the coming month will dlspatcth
two and probably three tramp steamers
to Yokohama. Several fixtures have late
ly fceen made at San Franclwco for thl
kind of business. The Brinkburn, which
sailed from the Bay City some time ago
with hay and barley for Vladivostok and
afterwards put back, will carry a full
cargo of barley to Yokohama. The Glen
turret's cargo has been reconsigned to
Japanese buyers, and the Stanley Dollar
and Thade Fagerlund will also take sup
plies to the Far East. The steamers In
verness and Forerlc have been chartered
fey the Pacific Mall to load for Yokohama,
the former on a ?4 rate.

while In reality free, there still remains
with him that despondency and feeling
of utter hopelessness that Is brought on
only by confinement In penal Institutions,
She said that the people, instead of giving
what aid they could, refused to give
even a little show, forcing released con
victs deeper and deeper Into the grasping
walls of crime until they had completely
obliterated from their souls all that
was good and honorable.
"People wonder how criminals can be
come habitual criminals." said Mrs.
Booth in the course of her lecture, "and
at their utter recklessness of the terrible
consequences that ensue from perpetra
tion of crimes similar to the ones that
had forced them Into the clutches of
the law. They wonder why they will
again commit crimes when they have
experienced the deprivation of their lib
erty. They think it should be a lesson
that could never be forgotten or disre
garded. It is a lesson and one that will
always be remembered by these poor un
fortunates who have experienced it, were
they given half an opportunity to realize
and understand the bright side if life
instead of an existence shrouded In gloom
and the mistrust of their fellow-beings,
"When a prisoner emerges with the
slain of a convict and criminal upon
his character, he is facing a situation
he is not bound to respect its regulation
and can seal at all seasons. Last year he
carried a Mexican flag, but this- was with
drawn, it Is said, at the request of the
American Government.
When cruising last year McLean at
tempted to raid the Copper Island rooker

ono of whom afterward died at Port
Townsend.
Steam-Coasters Come and Go.
The steamer Nome City sailed for San
Francisco yesterday afternoon with 20
passengers and S03.000 feet of lumber. She
will stop at Stella and take on 269 cedar
poles today. The steamer South Bay,
loading at the Portland Lumber Mills, and
the steamer Cascade, taking cargo at St.

license allows her to carry 7C passengers

brought In 66 tills morning. From San
Francisco to Coos Bay she had but 31
passengers and picked up a number at
the latter port, from which she sailed

Pythomene Is Outside.
The square-rigger reported off the mouth

that cannot be appreciated except by
those who have experienced it. He is
shunned by his former friends, and Is
pointed out as a jail-bird. He Is refused
employment and told there Is no room
or use for criminals. They are looked
upon as vile creatures of depravity and
degeneracy who are born to commit
crimes when often they are men who
have entered once more upon the world to
start at the bottom of the ladder with
the determination to win success and
right the wrongs they might have In
flicted when youths.
"We, who have Interested ourselves in
the reformation and righting of theso
poor unfortunates, do not ask that they
be honored and treated like heroes. We
only ask that they be given a show to
regain the narrow path of righteous liv
ing, out of which they have strayed.
Glvo them the same show that Is afforded
all American citizens who have not been
convicts. If they show a willingness to
start life over again they should be
encouraged. Let an ex-convict try to do
what Is fair and honorable and be In
dustrious, and people will say his refor
mation is only temporary or feigned."
Mrs. Booth told of an Instance of a
man who was sentenced to prison for
a crime which he had committed In a
moment of recklessness. He proved a
model prisoner and was released after
lost on the-Knight Commander when that
vessel was sunk by Russian warships.
The material weighs 1500 tons and Is worth
$250,000.

TIRES AT SCHOOL, BUNS AWAY
Ernest Robert, Twelve Years Old,
la Reported Missing.
Becoming weary of school, and In the
possession of over So spending money, Er--nest
Robert, 12 years old, and residing at
S26 Corbett street, ran away yesterday
with another boy whose name cannot be
learned. Roberfe mother thinks that her
son has been abducted by his companion.
A story was current last night that the
two boys had left for this reason: "To
get the pot of gold waiting for those who
find the way to the end of a rainbow."
"When this was told to Mrs. Berger, Er
nest Robert's mother, she said: "Stuff
and nonsense! My boy has been persuad
ed to run away by an older boy. I think
he has been abducted. My boy looks as
if he were 9 years old, and he has been
playing 'hookey lately from the Falling
School. He was at home this morning,
and. saying 'Excuse me a moment,' he
went out and I haven't seen him since. I
now find that his aavings bank, which
contained more than 15, is empty. I sup
pose the money will be all spent when he
gets back."

He, under a false name, secured employ
ment In a large factory. By the strictest
and most careful attention to his duties,
he succeeded in securing a position of
responsibility and trust. His employer,
through an accident, learned of his past
history and discharged him without even
an explanation, although for several
years this ex-convict had lived a life of
Industry and progresslveness. In despair
he took to drink and In a few days found
himself once more behind the prison bars
having violated the conditions of his pa
role. There he attempted to dash out
his "brains by beating his head against
the walls, but only succeeded In crip
pling and disfiguring himself for life.
Mrs. Booth told similar stories taken
from the lives of convicts whom she had
met in her work which carried her Into
the prisons In all parts of the country
She made a stirring appeal to her listen
ers not to discriminate against ex-con
victs. She also told of the good work

CHARITY AND EXPENSE
MR. STRONG RENEWS HIS COM
PARISON WITH MINNEAPOLIS.
How the Work There Is Carried On
Significant Tacoma
Figures.
PORTLAND. Feb. 24. (To the Edi
tor.) Misled by a similarity of names.
The Oregonian in its editorial of today
nas apparently made a serious mistake.
Besides this it also seriously mis
states In this editorial my former com
munication. In my communication,
after stating our oneness with Asso
ciated Charity organizations. I said, to
use my exact words, "How do we com
pare with similar organizations?" and
then I gave the figures of the Associat
ed Charities of Minneapolis with abso
lute accuracy. This society Is the exact
counterpart of our own, supported by
prlvato subscriptions based upon a sim
ilar constitution and having- for Its
purpose "to encourage 'tnrif, to help
each applicant to help himself, to raise
tne poor above the need of relief, to
prevent children growing up as pau
pers, to inculcate the best principles
of poor relief, to prevent fraud, beg
glng and indiscriminate begging," etc.
etc Its report is before me, and Its ex
penditures are as I stated them, and It
apparently does not deem' It wise to
spend nearly as much for direct relief
as we do. I did not use the words given
as an apparent quotation in "the edito
rial, as follows: "Jn Minneapolis In
1903 the total expenditures by the City
Board of Charities were 57003.CG," or
any words like them, for to have done
so would have been to .write myself
down as very ignorant of both charity
and municipal matters.
There Is no charitable board like
ours in Minneapolis by the name of the
City Board of Charities, but there Is
an official Department of Charities and
Corrections, and its exact name is
"Board of. Charities and Corrections of
the City of Minneapolis." It Is a part
of the city government, and Is, as Is
usual In many Eastern cities, the coun
terpart of our County Court In charity
matters, and this Is the one your cor
respondent evidently refers to, but even
then he does not give all the figures. It
is supported as our County Court is by
public taxation, and its report for 1903
is before me. Its entire receipts in
1903 were 5147.201.36. Its disburse
ments were: Poor department, 533,69).-
51: City Hospital. $54,333.91; City
Workhouse, $19,SS5.57; hospital build
ing improvements, $37,653.72; total
$145,563.71. This organization is no
more subject to any comparison with
ours than the nurses' association of
this city is comparable with our Coun
ty Court. In other words, the comparison
made in The Oregonian is exactly as if
you nad taken the expenditures of the
Charitable Department of the County
of Multnomah, which I3 strictly a pub
lic Institutional, charitable agency, ex
pending tens of thousands of dollars
on poor farms, poor hospitals, transpor
aUloj? afld tjoor xrJfS juii coJJ&4 that
expenditures for charities and called the
superintendent's salary the only salary
ulsbursement. Even then your Minne
apolis correspondent's report of what
is Btrlctly a disbursing and Jlsnensinsr
charity apparently shows that its net
disbursements for charity out of a-
total disbursement of perhaps $150,000
was only about 524.481.69. About what
I would expect of a municipal charity
and correction department and prob
ably proportionately just about the
same showing that our county poor de
partment could make.
We have hundreds of charity reports
on hand. They are at your service
and at the service of anybody at our
office. I only wish that our subscribers
could be sufficiently agitated 'so that
tney would come to the office and look
up our accounts and compare them with
otherj, but as it is they remain as ob
stinately unruffled and easy as an,
aioatross in a gale of wind, and it Is
only by reason of the fact that some
of them, by way of a friendly pat on
the back are sending in their subscrip
tions in advance of their being due,
that we know that they appreciate that
there is any windstorm at all.
In regard to the friendly little let
ter in the same issue by Miss Anabel
Russell. I do not think that Miss Rus- !
sell's action as described by her in
ncr letter could or- would be called im
pulsive or misapplied. There is no kind- i
lier and more effective charity In the J
worm tnan the friendly visiting and 1
help cf families by neighbors who keep j
themselves informed of the situation,
and help wisely and judiciously any
unfortunate family In their neighbor
hood.
This is the help the City Board of
Charities seeks for every destitute fam
ily, and it will not interfere with or
discourage any such effort. If Miss
Russell or any oilier woman has tlmo
for this kind of work sne cannot do
better than to so use it.
THOMAS N. STRONG.
President City Board of Charities.
If The Oregonian was misled by a
similarity of names. It was misled be
cause President Strong in his former
communication failed to make clear his
comparison with Minneapolis. The Ore
gonian took him on his own ground and
obtained the figures for the City Board
of Charities and Corrections for Min
neapolis. Notwithstanding Mr. Strong's
protestations, it thinks that the compari
son between the Portland City Board of
Charities and the Minneapolis City Board
of Charities and Corrections Is quite as
fair as the comparison between the local
board and the Minneapolis Associated
Charities, which Mr. Strong now drags
forth. In Minneapolis, It Is evident that
the City Board !. the central organiza
tion for the relief of the poor, sick and
needy. It disburses a large amount for
the relief of individuals and families. The
Multnomah County Court maintains the
County Hospital, but gives a comparative
ly amall amount to families, pensioners
and individuals not at the hospital or
poor farm. No doubt it will be agreed
that the Portland City Board is the cen
tral organization here.
But It Is not neces3nry to go to Minne
apolis to make comparisons, fair or un
fair. The Associated Charities of Ta
coma Is doing the same work the Port
land City Board docs, or is supposed to
do. From the annual report of Manager
William Hoover for 1901. the following
extract Is taken:
The total receipts of the year are $3334.58.
the expenditure being: Salary. $904.10; office
expenses, including telephone, $01.05; relief,
transportation, etc.. 5.T04S.44. maklnr a total
of $4044.58. thus leaving a deficit of $110. In
addition we have distributed 3070 pieces of
clothing: at an estimated value of $550. wc have
secured 14 GO odd Jobs and 30 permanent posi
tions for those out of employment, we have In
vestigated 120 new cases and have secured as
sistance from parties In the East for friends
here 29 times, we have alno distributed 1G5
pieces of bedding-, four wire mattresses, six
muffed mattresses, four bedsteds. four tables,
blx chairs, four stoves, relief was extended 816
times.
Thus It is seen that the maintenance
expenses of the Tacoma board are about
one-fourth the total disbursements. In
Portland the similar expense is about
three-fourths of the total. Much other
charity Is dispensed In Tacoma. For ex
ample, 3079 pieces of clothing were dis
tributed. The report of the Portland
board (page 13) shows that 1443 pieces of
clothing were distributed. On page 14
the information Is given that 395 pieces
of clothing were distributed. There Is
like confusion In other Items of the sta
tistical report, so that It Is hard to know
just what the local board Is doing.
If Mr. Strong was misquoted In the edi
torial It was entirely because he was
misunderstood and the words "City Board
of Charities," which It was supposed he
meant, were Inserted for purposes of
making his meaning clear, when "Asso
ciated Charities," which he says he
meant, should have been substituted.
