HEARST'S Moga'.iuo for September contains a very
interesting article on prison reform by Governor W.
P. Hunt of Arizona, who is following in the footsteps of
Governor West of this state. Among other tilings Mr.
Hunt says: ' , ,
In Arizona we have a steel anil concrete struetuYe
which we have been in the habit of showing visitors with
n 'flourish of the hand. We have felt a warm glow of state
pride in it. It is one of our most modern institut ions. It is
tho break-prool prison and it cost a hundred thousand
dollars.
People come to see that fortress today because of iis
ability to keep prisoners in. A hundred years from now
they will come to mavvei and shudder as we do when we
see dark cells beneath donjon keeps and the horrible
machines of torture of the Inquisition. Thev will wonder
at the inhuman Way men treated their brothers in this
barbarous age.
They Avill also smile at our conceit. For we pose as an
enlightened people, and yet we are still shutting away
nuninn souis to rot. We take weak men, condemn their
bodies to degeneracy, break their spirit with iron bars, and,
when their souls are black and cankered, we turn them out
again upon the world. It is hard to say whether it is more
terrible or more absurd.
Prison reform has sprung up like a mining fevor and
fe.
nas caught the attention ot a people who are quick to
think and act. Something is happening among us that has
never happened in the world's history before. In several

A RAILROAD OF THEIR OWN i
(Salem Statesman.)
Some of the prominent business
men of Medford and vicinity propose
to have "railroad connection with tho
Pacific coast. They say they are
tired ot promises by railroad compa
nies and outsiders, who have been
huilding such a transportation line
one paper for some time past. A
company has been incorporated and
operations towards the building ot
the road will be commenced before
long.
r There Is a great amount 6f tin
developed land between Medford and
the sea lino and the mineral and
timber resources aro almost unlim
ited. A. railroad would bring that
coHBtry- "out ot tho woods" and
cause It' to be "inhabited with pros
perous farmers and numerous manu
facturing industries would also be
one of the beneficent results.
The railroad will extend from Med
ford down the Applegate. touching
at'Kerhy and "Waldo through Smith
River to Crescent City.
Such a road will be of incalculable
Went to Medford and the Rogue
River, valley. It will open up a vir
gin mineral aad timber region, will
tap the fertile but undeveloped Ap
plegate valley, and will bring a
great reduction in freight rates.
With tho construction of the Pana
ma panal it will anean that fruit and
produce can bo shipped by water to
Atlantic coast ports, and incidentally
a delightful summer resort will be
within easy distance of Medford.
states west of the Rocky mountains prisoners are actually
uiuiijf ufjiicu as muiiau ucmgs.
Like all .great movements this one is marvclously
suuuie. i is uasea on uic tneorv that the eoou in men is
stronger than the evil, and we have proved that theory. We
have made, a direct appeal to the better nature in men, and
we have shown that to be the easiest thing m the world to
do, if you go at it rightly. The touchstone we have found
to be honor.
In Arizona we have reached the point now where Ave
arc developing a new conscience in our treatment of the
criminal. We arc trying io arrive at a general plan that
will deprive the prisoner of nothing but the power to do
harm and will surround him with influences that will make
a "better man of him. Already, in return for services to the
state, we credit men with two days of time for each day of
uik. in utumion, a. uencve inev suouia receive soma
small wage so they can leave prison with enough money
for a fresh start. It may even be possible to have them
support their families while in prison.
Work on prison farms, building bridges and high
ways, the learning of trades, even a regular system of edu
cation can all be made to take the place of the pestilential
immorality common to all prisons of the old type.
Neither in Arizona, nor anywhere else, is there the
shadow of an excuse for the continuation of the old prison
ideas! All the gatling guns ever cast will not remodel the
unruly or subjugate the man with, a wrong perspective
of life. For all our false philosophy and despite all our
penny-wisdom; it is not to be doubted that all men have
moments of sublime thoughts, and love the vision of a
noble, happier existence. We have proved it in the peni
tentiaries in the -west.

Under date of September 14th, tho
following press dispatch, regarding
tho much-talked-ot Coqullle-Roguo
river railway, was sent out from Co
qullle, and published In a Portland
paper:
"That McArthur Bros. & Perks aro
backing the project of building a
railroad from interior Oregon to the
coast, was the assertion o fthelr en
gineer, E. Valjcan, who is here sur
veying a right-of-way through the
valley. Tho proposed lino is to ex
tend from Port Orford through Uan
don, the Coquille valley, Grants Pass
and tho Rogue river valley and con
nect with the Pacific & Eastern near
Medford. The excellent harbors at
Port Orford and at Bandon will bo
the two shipping ports, and will thus
rcceivo the produco directly from tho
interior.
"Tho project was first mado to tho
citizens ot Coquille a few weeks ago
by H. E. Lee, a railroad promoter,
who asked a right-of-way from Fish
trap to Lampa Creek, a distance of
1G miles, through tho valley, and a
bonus of $25,000 for his company.
A committee of local business men,
George E. Peoples, R. S. Knowlton,
J. A. Lamb and George Moulton, are
at work examining tho possibility of
securing tho right-of-way, and they
report very good prospects.
"The engineer, E, Vnljean, survey
ing through this section, recently
moved hs temporary headquarters
from this city to RIvorton, from
which point ho will conduct tho re
maining survey through the valley.
Besides tho oxpenso of tho survey,
the company Is reported to have se
cured terminal grounds at Port Or
ford and Bandon."
