BOYS AND GIRLS FAR
Judge Cannot Say Whether Pa
rental Court or Moral
School Will Do It.
THE BURDEN ON THRIFTY
County Juvenile Officer Says Older
People Are Responsible for Im
; ' morality of Girls.
That unless some plan is evolved
within the next few years, Marion
county will be taxed to the limit in
order to cope with the cases of delin
quent girls and boys, is the opinion of
County Judge Bushey, who also acts,'
as the county juvenile judga. Some
thing must be done, and done within
a comparatively short time toward
overcoming the problem of preventing
girls and boys from going in the wrong
direction, says the judge, but whether
a parental court or a moral school
will serve the purpose, he is not pre
pared to say.
"We have to acquire something of
a moral construction that the parents
of these delinquent children fail to pro
vide," declares Judge Bushey. "When
we raise horses we cull out the best
for certain purposes and the remain
der we put in the harness. You can't
draw any distinction of this character
in dealing with human beings. You
have got to give every single one a
name opportunity."
Hundreds of Cases.
"There are hundreds of children in
this county who were born by parents
who are not worthy of being the fath
ers and mothers of a litter of cats,"
t'uuiluued 'Liie judge. "They either
don't know how or absolutely refuse
to care for their offspring, and conse
quently it devolves upon the. community
at large to lend a helping hand to keep
the growing boys and girls out of
some penal institution. Now, who is
going to lend this hand! If we didn't
have a juvenile court or a parental
school of some description, do you sup
pose the next (ioor neighbor would be
-willing to take it upon himself to de
mand that the children of heartless
parents be turned over to them! Hard
ly. "There are girls going to the devil
liy the scores and almost every female
making a wrong step is sure to be com
plained against. But at the same time,
there are just as many, if not more
young men going in the samo direction,
and not three out of ten undergo repri
manding by the courts. People are
going to overlook the defects in girls
to a certain extent in the future, and
the young men will experience a closer
investigation of their actions.
Burden Falls on Thrifty.
"Some families believe that all that
is necessary in this life is to own a
doren children and an equal number of
dogs or cats and let the other fellow
do the rest.
"J'jst survey theenormous percentage
! the thrifty families in this county.
You will f nd that they had few chil
dren in the earlier part of their mar
ried lives.. They didn't load themselves
with responsibility until they could af
ford to, but Ht the same time, these
very same people are compelled to bear
the bin den of caring, to an extent, of
course, lor the little girls and boys
whose iai nut neglected to use the
proper amount of common sense or
judgment. ' The thrifty man and wife
are burdened with the responsibility of
another couple who insist upon bring
ing into the world more children than
they can feed and clothe. The latter
can't take care of their children, edu
cate them or even teach them the moral
side of life, let aloue provide proper
food and clothing for them. So, you
ee, what must be done. The bard
working man, who already supports a
lamily and Is getting along nicely,
nust put his shoulder to the wheel and

unworthy man and woman who are
cither too shiftless or too ignorant to

Upholds Prosecutor McNab and Says He
Could Not Be True American
and Do Otherwise.
I'NITBD TRESS LEASED Willi!.
Jackson, Cal., June 20.' "Mr. Mc
Nab could not be a true American and
do otherwise than he has done."
This was the declaration here of Mrs.
Elizabeth Caminetti, wife of F. Drew
Caminetti, who is living in seclusion
with her two children as a result of
the escapade of her husband, F. Drew
Caminetti, Maury I. Diggs, Marsha
Warrington and Lola Norris, of Sacra
mento, the political consequences of
which have convulsed the nation as a
insult orH the resignation of United
States District Attorney John L. Mc
Nab, of San Francisco.
"I want to see the men punished,"
continued Mrs. Caminetti, who is just
22 years old, as she sat with her two
children. "Both of them deserve it
and I believe that will be the outcome.
But the children they are the ones
who must suffer. There is the tragedy.
What does all the national entangle
ment, explanations by cabinet officers
and the president and the jeopardizing
of political fortunes amount to beside
the welfare and the future of these two
little babies!"
While the mother was talking, Na
omi, her oldest child, was peering at a
newspaper where her father, Diggs and
the two Sacramento girls were pic
tured. "Oh, there's daddy," she suddenly
lisped. "When is daddy coming
home!"
Mrs. Caminetti declared that, while
opposed to divorce, she will never live
with her husband again. She is hope
ful that his son's escapade will not af
fect the fortunes of Caminetti, the
elder, tho United States commissioner
general of immigration.
"Both he and Mrs. Caminetti have
been so good to mo," said the deserted
wife. "They are as heartbroken over
this as I am."
BUNCO MEN WORK WHILE

charges of "Chito" Ravigo, St. Louis
bunco man, that ten confidence men are
working in Sacramento.
About the same time that the denial
was made, H. C. Soucey, of Lemooro,
Kings county, was fleeced of $110 by
two smooth strangers at the Southern

matching dollars was used.

Blames Older People.
According to Mrs. Jackson, the
county juvenile officer, the grown peo
ple are responsible for young girls and
boys going wrong. She declares that
right in this city the older people are
encouraging immorality in tin lives of
young girls. Mrs. Jackson mentioned
one great fault. She declares that she
has knowledge of certain older people
coaxing young girls away from employ
ment and inducing them to remain in
young couples' homes upon the prom
ise that they will be placed in better
positions. While the older people may
be sincere says Mrs. Jackson, it is
wrong for them to induce girls to re
main in their homes on the pretext
they will find the charges work.
ENT OF PEN
IS
by
Warden Will Have His Say
and Governor . His Re- '
garding Matters.
GOVERNOR ASKS ACTION
Board Also Decides That All Its Pro
ceedings Shall Be Made Hatters
of Record.
The board of control this morning
held a session and took up the mat
ter of the policy and management of
the penitentiary.
At the beginning of the meeting the
governor presented a lettor to the board
in which he set down that whatever the
board did they should make a record
of the same, for three reasons, namely:
First That the public may know the
views of the board and the members
thereof in reference to the treatment of
prisoners. '
Second That the warden may be ful
ly and clearly advised as to the wishes
of the board.
Third Not only that the prisoners
may be fully informed as to what the
board expects of them in the way of
good conduct and service, but as to the
attitude of the board toward them
when such good conduct and service
have been faithfully rendered.
Governor's Views.
The governor then pointed out that
the last legislature did not do all they
intended to do when they croated the
board of control, as noted, that they
provided the board should have charge
of only the work that goes on in the
prison walls, while the governor is re
sponsible for all work at the several in
stitutions and on the road, which is
commonly known as the honor system.
He further said that he is solely re
sponsible for tho escape of any convict,
because they are put in their positions
by his order.
The board placed the matter of prison
management in the hands of the war
den, who is to work out his own policy,
submitting all plans to the board. This
action was brought about by the reso
lution of Secretary of State Olcott,
which reads: "Be it ordered that the
matter of prison management nd poli
cy, so far as it extonds to the prisoners
under the control of the board of con
trol, be left with the prison warden,
who will be held responsible for the
safety and welfare of prisoners, and
that the detail and institutional and
road work be left to the governor, as
provided by law." The motion was
seconded by Treasurer Kay, and passed
by a full "aye."
Mr. Kay then made the motion, not
for record, that when so requested the
warden make known to the press all
details relative to escapes.
Honor System Not Abandoned.
Governor West today gave out the
following statement in regard to the
assertion of the Oregonian that he had
abandoned his honor system at the pen
itentiary: ."The statement that the 'honor sys
tem' has been abandoned as a part of
my prison policy is absolutely without
foundation The statement was made
and given currency by those who are
too crooked themselves to ever hope to
become the beneficiaries of the system.
"Those who are trying to crucify this
humane policy will never have the
pleasure of heading it off, as I intend
to further extend the policy through
the opHrtunity presented by the recent
adoption of good roads legislation."
