INTERMEDIATE REFORMATORY Hon- L L.-Patterson, candidate. for the nomination by the Republicans for Governor, says in the course of his state ment printed yesterday that he will, if nominated and elected, favor the commitment of all first offenders convicted of felonies to a new institution C - ' - 1 This institution to be conducted in the plant of the pres ent state training school, when that school shall have been -removed to the Woodbum site, which is nearing the time f when it will -be ready for occupancy, or part occupancy. . Mr. Patterson assumes that most first offenders will be young men, which is correct. His idea is to have the new ;; institution conducted under the direction of the warden ol the penitentiary. The Legislature at its last session undertook to arrange this matter from a different angle, or at least to make a be ginning of it. They passed a law which reads: - "There shall be established and permanently located in Marion county a department in connection with the Oregon state training school for the confinement, discipline, educa tion, employment and reformation of offenders in the" state of Oregon between the ages of 18 years and 21 years. " 1 . A11 persons heretofore or hereafter convicted of felonies and sentenced to the penitentiary who are between the ages of 18 years and 21 years may. be transferred by the Governor on his own motion or upon the recommendation of. the parole board, whenever the warden of the penitentiary shall certify that he believes it would be to the best interest of such minor to be transferred to the state training school; provided, that In the event that any minor transferred from the penitentiary to the state training school should prove incorrigible, then the Governor, upon the recommendation of the superintendent of the state training school, shall be authorized to transfer such minor from the state training school to the penitentiary." " , There have so far been no such commitments. The reas . i on is that there has been no opportunity to fit up the depart- nehtjcontemplated, because the state training scfidol has been .. land is still over crowded. It had yesterday 189 boys. There 1, should not be more than 150. A , , -. ,r v. The Legislature provided $4000 with which to begin the .work of fitting up such a department. t h : , " : The commitments to the state training (school are of boys from' 8. to 18, and they are indeterminate, excepting! upon arrival at 21 years. So there are in the institution now; often VV boys of the ages contemplated by the new law; but coming oh commitments direct, and not through the penitentiary & The new institution at Woodburn will begin to-be occu " pied at the opening of the next semester, around the endof January. Working forces go tnere now and perform neces- sary labors. The Woodburn institution will have two com- panies of large and two of small boys, with four teachers ; But two teachers will still be at the main institution, till after the meeting of the next Legislature, for the laundry, i hospital and other industrial departments will still be at the original plant, to say nothing of the f arm" and stock . and orchards and gardens. . , j ; -- But something may be done in carrying out the evident - wishes of the Legislature in passing the law above mentioned, before the convening of the next session of the Legislature And in that case there will arise a question as to: just how the intermediate reformatory shall be operated, and how . the sentencing shall be done, or the committing regulated LFor it will amount to an intermediate reformatory how- ever it may be governed. , : - ? -. ' - In New York the corresponding institution receives all men under 30 and all first of fenders, whatever their ages. . ; ' "Different states have different rules for receiving in- mates at their intermediate reformatories. These will remain to be, worked out . r And upon them will depend the proper government of the institution, whether Under the warden of the penitentiary or 1 the superintendent of the state training school, or independ- J ently. . L . : ' - tation of the law in making arrests and in further dealings with those taken into custody. . ; ' ...5 , But the officer who breaks the law by shooting at the autoist or the pedestrian in order to halt him, for committing a . misdemeanor, is amenable to punishment and should him self, be punished, or better still no person thus ignorant of the law should be granted official authority. , - Officers should not transcend their constitutional rights and should pass an examination showing fair knowledge of those rights and the ordinary: laws under which they serve before entering upon their official duties. And men of questionable character or themselves lawbreakers should not be allowed to. wear the badge of authority over others. . That there is tremendous pressure upon officers to en force the law is obvious. But to proceed illegally is to break down, finally, the very laws which are being enforced. : And discrimination for political, financial or social favor arrays class against class and threatens the constitution itself. . . The warning issued by the speaker is both timely and important. , . ItKe faithful and dexterious use of lipsticks", rouge and chew- And with freedom of speech still subject to slight con ventional curtailment, the self government association might prevail upon the president to construe public opinion into furnishing another room for the practice of profanity, since the statutes prohibit it in public. Surely wonderful and startling innovations are taking place in the name and under the guise of higher educational freedom. .But this spectacular bit of technical and mental degradation will stamp Bryn Mawr as a class by itself. The West, has too high present regard for pioneer decency and progre&j to copy this latest innovation. The vast majority of' colleges both East and West together with the thousands of forward looking substantial young people enrolled therein choose clean habits, intellectual progress and independence instead of license interpreted into the evasiveness of public opinion. . , POOR OLD BRYN MAWR OBEDIENCE TO LAW : That the first duty, of law enforcement officials, is to themselves respect and obey the laws, was one of the1 high points in Judge L. H. McMahan's address before, the Rotary club yesterday. Another mark for "the speaker's1; yerbal shafts was that all men without regard to social, political or financial influence, or lack of the same, should be treated without discrimination under 'the law. K ' r 7 Stories of arrests being made illegally, the too free, Use of firearms and holding persons under suspicion and incom municado were ; told by the speaker in substantiating his criticisms. - - . . ; It should be borne in mind that the errors, and practices unsupported by law and charged by the Judge do not apply to the majority of enforcement officers" who are .both zealous n the enforcement and careful to keep within strict interpre- ; ' Student self government as Bryn Mawr has recently dis tinguished itself by being instrumental in removing the age old ban on cigaret smoking by the coeds of this exclusive college. President Parks with unparalleled alacrity responds to a petition and informs the gasping world that "The condi tion of the students at Bryn Mawr has always been in the hands of the 'Self Government Association' and the regula tions of the said association have been based on the public opinion of the moment." How diplomatic ! How courageous ! How sound and progressive for an educational institution to be guided by "momentary public opinion!" On his principle the institution owes no courtesy to public opinion outside of Bryn Mawr. Again, if a majority of the "self government" branch of this very exclusive institution desire any innovation not positively contrary to the laws and the constitution, they may turn to their brave president for a ruling favorable to their desires "and based on their very exalted and correct analysis of public opinion. This is democrary with a ven geance. There .can be no errors here in interpreting the public attitude? Further, upon the basis of this interpretation of public opinion the limits of student activities, and customs are practically unbounded. If it shall appear to the self govern ment association that the ban on tobacco chewing "no longer rests solidly on intelligent public opinion" a room may be set aside, with fireplace, spit-toons and all the other parapher nalia of the tobacco room for the enjoyment of the coveted cud..
