The mora serious crimes, murder and th like bavs been as fsw, I believe. as in any community the slse or Fort land. Such offenses usually srloe from a disordered mind and ! know of no particular cause to which they can be attributed. , Offenses such as - larceny and 'bur glary, which It seems to me are In the larger majority committed by people who have no regular employment and will not work, and will not seek work, hsvs been lessened to a arest extent by piecing In operation the rock ouarrr as KeUey'a StjttS 1 not!

And ths ' habitual "rounder'1. who hss no business snd will have nons and does not work, Is present giving Portland rather a wide berth; where els months or a year ago the police court was crowded daily with a large number of people held under charges of vagrancy, it Is now only seldom that more - thsn two or three such characters are before Judge Cameron. . , While there may be critics of ths way the present laws are enforced, and I presume there always will be., for I doubt the ability of any publlo official to satisfy all ths people all the time. I believe thst aa far as criminal affair a are concerned, judging the same by ths records of eur courts ' and the com plain ta made to arresting officers, thst Portland was jiaver better ' governed than It Is at present. .
