BeurjiiK 00 delegates to the Northwest development congress recently held in tSeattle, (he Minnesota special ar rived in Portland. In the party was Louis J. Hill, chairman of the exe cutive board of the Great Northern railroad. The parly was entertain"d lavishly tl.Y ml will bo again tomorrow, EK THE SAN QUENTIN REVOLT. U'TrVHE quality of food served the prisoners has nothing to do with the outbreak. Tho real oauso is tho' abla tion that hag boon going on for prison reform, Governor West of Oregon being one of He is largely responsible for the prisons, oast and west. As a result it will now no necessary to make discipline a little stronger all along the line. The man who was killed Sunday was a graduate of Governor West's college at Salem." This is Warden lloyle's explanation of tho San Quontin penitentiary bread riot in which one convict was killed and two others wounded. There were riots at San Quontin, much more virulent, with many more fatalities long before Oswald West was heard of. When barbaric methods, untemporod bv cither mercv. justice or decency, ruled the violence than there is today the wreck of many victims ol a hrst talse step. Capital punishment for petty larcoucy did not decrease crime in England. Neither does inhuman treatment of helpless prisoners increase order in penitentiaries. Penitentiaries are filled with the victims of society as at present organized a motley mixture of the unfortu nate, the weak, the debased, the degenerate and the insane. It is impossible to place all upon an equal plane for equal treatment, therefore Governor West lias established the merit system, whereby a prisoner may by his conduct work out his own salvation. It is a favorite saying of Governor West that there are, roughly speaking three classes of prisoners in every penitentiary, the degenerates, who are hopeless, the crimi nals from choice, who are no sooner out than they are again in, and the weak and unfortunate, victims of drink, or of some youthful indese-rotiou, not vicious or criminal by na ture. Tt is this latter class only that it is possible to aid by helping them to help themselves. There have been many reforms introduced at San Quontin in recent veal's, but the progress of reform has been so snail-like that there is naturally unrest on the part of the victims. Conditions at the prison are far from ideal, in sanitary and bygone,- far behind those at tho Ore- i "mil rtt'isnii. , j.. .... There are twice as many prisoners at San Quontin as there should be. Five men are crowded into a single small cell, with only a narrow slit, about two by ten inches, in size for light. Ventilation is extremely poor. Condi tions are most favorable for creating criminals and degen erates out of weak youths. When the new buildings now in progress of construction, are completed, these defects will' be remedied to sonic extent, but the'population grows faster than the capacity of the instiution. The prisoners still wear the striped uniform. Most, of them are employed in the jute mill, making gunny-sacks. The dust from the juto fills the air and makes many a con sumptive. The occupation does not fit them for 'making a living outside the prison. All classes are horded to gether. All are served the same plain food and there is no reward for good behavior by better food, as there is in Oregon. .Reform is seen in the gradual extension of fac tories to make furniture, clothes and supplies for state in stitutions and those prisoners thus employed, besides learning a trade useful after release, by being given con genial occupation are kept more contented. Some of the prisoners in every prison arc deserving of assistance. The vast majority are not. It is the problem of prison management to divide the sheep from the goats, to give those worth while a chance, to provide sanitary conditions, and healthy employment that will not con flict with free labor, and road building seems the logical occupation. Because a prisoner has been parollpd does not mean that he has reformed. It simply means that his minimum sentence has expired and that good behavior entitled him to discharge. 'Prisoners are not different from tho rest of human it', and will similarly respond to treatment. Gratitude with them as with others is largely an expectation of fu ture favors. A revolt does not imply the failure of humanitarian methods any more than the Tracy escapade implied the success of barbarism. The luind that guards a state prison; with its conglomerate population, must ever be, a strong one with the mailed fist under the glove of gentleness. THE IRRIGATION MEETING. TT is vital to the future growth and development of the A Rogue river valley that every effort be put forth to bring water to all of the land. At the Medford Theater tonight there will be a mass meeting to discuss irrigation and hear tho proposals of the Rogue River Canal Co., which offers to invest a couple of million dollars in the extension of its water system to cover the valley as far north as Talent. A little appreciation of its efforts, a little co-operation on the part of the land owners and people generally will secure this needed extension. How to do it will be set forth tonight. Construction work will offer temporary employment to'a large number of people who need it at this time. The completed canals will double the product of the land and make the five-acre tract support a family, besides provid ing crop insurance for the orchardist and farmer. Irrigation is the all important thing before the valley. Help secure it. COMMUNICATION. To tlio Hdlter: j Replying to Mr. 1). Ji. Ilcnmo's ln-j qulrieB In today's Mall Tribune. Tlio national luw of Interest has boon as fully established as tho law pf conservation of energy or cliomlcal affinity. Usury results from defects lnnato In a commodity standard of valuo. But usury would disappear by tho law of atrophy under eelon- tho loaders tn tho movement. the unrest Unit is soothing in prison, there was greater and the prison completed; tlflc: money. 'Jlto HuperabunUanco of bonds Interchangeable with money would crcato an unlimited demand for tho currant rato of Interest that would render usury an Impossible Imposition as tho sale of air to breathe. Tho circulation of national bond notes Is a special privilege that would bo abolished by nclontlflc monoy, as thcio would bo no othor monoy In Tlrculhtlon but the imtlou'u tluio note:. TJio present ntnmlftrd f vnlno Is gold coin. Hut the quantity of g1ld coin Is Insufficient to meet the do nmnd for money ami $8,000,000,000 of paper money, consisting of national bank notes nml Uovernmenl legal ten der notes, popularly called gieciu tuu'kn, are kept In circulation on a purity with gold coin by a reserve of $150,000,000 gold coin maintained at tlio United States Treasury. A panic precipitates tho payment of all obligations In gold coin until confidence Is restored, and the tens upon tens of billions of demand obli gations cannot be paid with the ex isting supply of $1,000,000,000 gold coin In circulation. There l no possibility of creating more gold and nothing but gold will satisfy Hie do mnhd obligations until confidence Is restored. Therefore there can be no doubt that while gold coin Is the standard no power exits that can restore confidence but tho power exorcised by financiers In control of the supply of gold coin. K. U .McCM'Ui:. Medford, Juno 7. Meat at the Market To the Kdlter: Just a word In an swer to C. J. Hast man, manager Un ion Meat Co. Now I have bought meat In Med ford for twelve jenrs and never got a nicer tasting leg ot mutton than tho one I bought at the public market last Wednesday. I was thero when the meal was brought In and all the moat looked healthy, fresh nml tempting; and as to the meat not being protected against files, dust and so forth, there Isn't any need that I could sec, as It was sold too fast, and tho market Is a very clean place any way and almost free from files. The meat changed hands loo quickly to suffer an) damage In that way. I think all of the women there could plainly see that the moat was very fresh (and that Is what we want), and could as easily cool It at home as In tho butcher shop. As tho article leads us to believe there Is too much red tape for the consumer to pay for and too much handling of the meat. Yes. we pay for the nice white linen suits tho men wear.
