GIVE 'EM A CHANCE
The man leaving the state peniten
tiary is entitled to be given a chance,
and not kicked farther down. When
he leaves the walls ot the pen he
should not be advertised to the world,
something that serves as a warning,
but be allowed to go iorth a iree
man, and, it he has the right man
hood, regardless ol what took him in
to the prison, be given a show- again.
Governor Wttliycombc and the pa
role board have nailed the lid down
on the cot tin ot one of the most of
fensive cadavers that have dangled
before the public eye in many years,
ays Lend A Hand, the prison pub
lication. The newspapers of the state
have been asked to discontinue the
practice of advertising the men who
are released from this institution or
those who arc restored to citizenship
after making good on parole or con
ditional pardon for a given time.
For years it has been customary to
furnish newspaper representatives
with lists containing the names, sen
tences, crimes and counties sent from
of men who have been granted execu
tive clemency. This advertisini: only
Served to bring into the glare of pub
licity the skeletons of the past, rattle
their bones and arouse in the breast
of society a feeling of suspicion and
animosity toward the men.
Many have been hindered in the'r
efforts to rehabilitate themselves, and
not a few have become recidivists
because of the newspaper notoriety
given them after they had paid their
debt to the state. Roseburg News
JUST RATS
Mary Dudderidge. in Forecast:
The annual rat-bill of the United
States for food alone is $160,000,000.
When one adds to this the cost of
disease spread by "the only wild ani
mal that lives under the roof with
man," and the cost of repairing and
cleaning buildings where rats have
gained ingress, the total is appalling.
This doesn't include the cost of fires.
Building out the rat is recommended,
and rat-proofing of buildings called
"a cheap form of insurance against
fire and pestilence." Concrete is the
best protection, but it must not be
forgotten that the building which will
keep rats out will also keep them in.
and every defence possible must be
kept np. There is one strangely cur
ious thing about the mental attitude
of humanity towards plagues, diseases
bad social and economic conditions
in fact, towards everything evil. In
spite of the wonders constantly being
wrought by the minds and hands of
men, the majority of them continue
to harbor the lazy idea that because
evil thinzs exist now we have to keep
on standing for them. As a matter
of fact, we do not have to stand for
eviU of any kind. Uprooting them,
one and all. from the whole course of
life takes only this: First, the imag
ination to see civilization free from
the particular evil: second, the belief
that the reform can be accomplished;
third, the energy to get on the job:
fourth, the perseverance to stick on
the job nntil it is accomplished. Why
pay millions of dollars and millions
of !ive. and the comfort and joy of
millions of people, for rat-bills or
muddling' government, or bad eco
nomics or anything else from which
we need to be free? It isn't necessary

T- ALBANY DAILY DEMOCRAT, THUR8DAY. DECEMBER II. 1918
ItSflTS
That peace dove his been pretty
well shattered.
Just before Christinas, too, when
Sr. are netting ready to sing peace
on earth good will towards all men.
And just before the time for good
resolutions, which often spasm out
about this time of the year.
Most resolutions are like froth, be
cause made without backbone.
Resolutions that amount to much
.ire made NOW. without waiting
even for the next day.
It is always a splendid thing to
start on a better life.
People who are not big enough to
ileal with humanity in its weakness
have no business in the game, for
weak it is and weak it will remain,
as much as it improves.
Take those poor youngsters down
at Salem, playing a part in a doable
tragedy, a striking example of hu
man weakness.
Young people in their associations
do well to draw a line of purity, be
yond which there shall never be a
single step. It never pays to juggle.
Forced piety doesn't amount to
very much. Real piety is a personal
matter, from within, not from with
out. You may whitewash people and
make them look good; hut. behold,
inside the color is black, and black
it will remain until whitened in. the
proper way
Here's hoping Or. will whip Penn.

"Biggest Christmas trade ever had"
has been remarked by a number.
Tiling, haven't gone to smash yrt
since election day.
Lord N'orthcliffe, F.nglsnd's great
est newspaper man. recently said:
"Newspapers can succeed only
when they are newspapers and notli
ing else, that is to say, when they
print the news fully and fairly on
one hand and on the other comment
on it, having only the public interest
at heart. No purse would he equal
to the strain of owiting and running
a new spaper as a personal or political
organ to promote the fortunes of its
owner. Nor could such a paper ever
appeal to the public in a way hroa.l
enough to form a hae on which to
build a real newspaper success."
NOTICE TO DELINQUENT
PROPERTY ASSESSMENTS
I have been instructed by the City
Council to give notice to all property
owners who arc delinquent in pay -
ments of 6 months or more tor pav
ing, sewers, grading and graveling
that there has been issued a certificate
of delinquency against each of these
assessments. These certificates are
drawing 15 per cent per annum. There
has been application made to buy
these certificates and to save them
from going into private hands they
should be taken up with the next few
days.
