REFORMATION DESIRED END
e
Mercy Better Than Justice In Treat
ment of Criminals. .
PORTLAND". Oct. 16. To the Editor,
Oregonlan. City.) Being a close follower
of Uovernor West'e prison policy. 1 would
like to submit my views on the subject.
One of the most difficult of all the per
plexing queatlons which confront the states
man and publicist Is that which relates to
the proper treatment of crime and crim
InaTa. Modern criminal Jurisprudence must
rent upon the prlnclplea which are sanc
tioned by aclence and which have the ap
proval of absolute Justice. "The study of
social Infirmities and deformities with a
view to their cure la a Barred duty."
Herbert Spencer eaye that the process
of doing away with evil Is Dot through
punishment, threat or Injunction, but simply
through a change of activities. Thla truth
glvee color to our whole fabric of penology.
All of our recent progress haa come from
the replacing of bad activities by the good.
We now believe that bad people are good
folks who have misdirected their energies.
The questions which demand our atten
tion are not so much what shall we do
with criminals, but how can we prevent
crime, and what shall v. a do for our crlm
uials? In deallne with crime and crim
inals, society aims to protect Itrelf from
the wrong-doer. It may do this by inflict
ing vengeance upon the culpVit as an act
of Justice, or by aiming at the reformation
and rehabilitation of the offender.
Society demands submission of the crim
inal and the discipline of the criminal code
Is designed to subdue or convert his will
so as to make It conform to the will of the
social whole. In the criminal the sense of
wrong Jias preceded the sense of right, and
In laboring for hla reformation the relative
value of this wrong and right must be thor
oughly impressed upon his mlndv The
Bplrlt of revenge must be overcome, but
fur all this the larger Interests of the com
munity of which the criminal Is a degen
erate member should not be sacrificed to
his personal Interest.
There have been times In all ages, even
the darkest, when -voices were raised In
protest against cruelty, even to the guilty,
and gradually with thoughts against relri
i.ntion. It waa Inevitable that men should
lwtrect their energies to means of reforma
tion. Tne result dm pern omer prisons,
better prison management, the eonrt for
Juvenile delinquents, the parole system, the
Indeterminate sentence, and numerous other
laws for the helping and bettering of crim
inals. Prison reform has been Instituted In many
prisons for the purpose of "remodeling and
remoulding men who have been Imperfectly
cast for citizenship" and for the permanent
trolectlon of society by a. system of phys
aJ. mental and moral tralnln awaf tha

cultivation of such habits as shall tend to
Insure good citizenship. The causes of crime
are better understood than they used to
be. In aplte of retributive Justice, crime
haa been on the Increase. Punishment has
been tried long enough to prove that aa a
remedy for crime It Is Inadequate, for It
does not remove the cause a weak or
vitiated will.
Natural depravity was the once popular
belief, but now conceptions of crime are
changing. Prevention, direction, reforma
Uorr, this Is now the purpose of Judicial
action, especially as bearing on young law
breakers. The courts of every city testify
that youth Is the seedtime of crime. But
the child is not necessarily a criminal be
cause he has tendencies which are antag
onistic to modern social standards. W
misunderstanding and mistreatment he Is
made a criminal. ' .
Help is what the child offender needs,
and If helped to the best possible chnnie
he will make a man of himself. Therefore,
among the most noteworthy of recent re
forms In dealing with offenders against the
law are the Juvenile courts. These courts
are established with a new spirit. For to
Inflict the same punishment on young cul
prits aa on hardened crlminala is seen to
be disastrous, as the young offender has
probably, through Ignorance, vicious sur
roundings or neglect of home life been led
on to do wrong.
The Juvenile court, therefore, aims to re
monstrate with the young delinquent, to
point out to him the error of his ways, and
to show him the path he should hereafter
follova It alms to admonish parents not
to neglect the training of their children.
This system la rapidly developing aa parents
come to know that this magistrate Is not
an ordinary minister of Justice who meas
ures each infraction of law with statutory
precision, but that he is a willing ally,
ready at all times to Join heartily with
them to correct and encourage the boy or
girl who has been tempted to go. wrong.
The probation system in the Juvenile
courts is the embodiment ot corrective, pre
ventive and directive measures, and It has
been established that over 85 out of every
lOO of those placed In the hands of qual
ified probation officers do not have to be
brought back to court.
These striking remits prove the power
of laws of mercy In the case of young of
fenders not yet hardened In crime. In a
criminal case punishment enacted by law
eeldom has a curative effect. Th law
only attempts 'to shut the door after the
horse has been atolen Instead of taking ef
fective measures to remove the causo. The
great underlying thought on which one of
the greatest prison systems, that of Elmlra,
N. Y., Is founded. Is that criminals, especially-
young criminals, can be reformed.
That reformation la the right of the of
fender and the duty of the state. Intel
lectually and morally, criminals are for the
moBt part weak. Criminal Jurisprudence
haa reached a point In the history ef civiliza
tion when It can no longer afford to con
fine Its attention to the crime and the
penalty for the crime, but must take notice
of the criminal also.
To prevent crime Is now a great and vital
question, and depends largely upon the edu
cation of public aentlment. Public ' opin
ion needs enlightenment and guidance upon
questlona relating to crime. Its causes and
Ita prevention. It la not enough that crim
inal Jurisprudence should be humane, it
must also be Intelligent.
The improvement of the crTmlflal ooce
anil the Improvement of prison discipline go
harld in hand. They rest irpon the convic
tion that the criminal is a felloY man whose
lights cannot be violated with social im
munity; that he Is to be uplifted and re
stored, not crushed. Reformation ts better
than punishment. Formation la better than
reformation. Direction Is better than cor
rection. -',...
