What Bemedies Will Heal This Dis- eased Condition of Our Social System? Punishment ot Crime Necessary, but Its Prevention Much Bore Important: Mr, 0. O, Gibbs Suggests Some Measures to Cut OF the Sources of o Criminal Supply. T the Editor of The Tribune. CHICAGO, Aug. 24.~The great increase during the past few years of crime aud of the eriminal and vicious element in the community—an in- crease out of proportion to the natural increase ot population—is a subject demanding the serious consideration of all who value their oown personal safety and rights, and have regard tothe public welfare and good order. Every city and large town swarms with tbieves, burglars, zamblers, and confidence-men, whose sole business and means of support is crime. The country is full of able-bodied tramps. wandering from place to place on foot, or com- pelling the railroads to carry them on trains, Do longer giving even am excuse that they are seeking work, but A REFUSING IT WHEN OFFEBED. Instead of asking for food they demand it, and enforee their demands woen there is not a sufll- cient force at hand to oppose them. Theft and burglary arc a regular part of their Dusiness: and they do mot hesitate to kill if detected or opposed. Added to these there are almost daily outrages upon defenseless women, compared with which death would be merciful. Their numbers have been Zreatly exazgerated, * but, at the lowest, are formidable, and are beinz constantly augmented by accessions from thc class who sfe maturally and constitutionally tired,—who sce these ganes of bearty, well-fed young men going about the country, lounging in the shade, or cnjoying frec rides on freizht- trains, while they are sweatiog in the hay or harvest field, and think it an casier and pleas- anter way to live than by bard work. Inare- cent trip of several hundied miies in this State, during which I had occasion many times to ride on freight-trains, there was no time on which, o starting, there would not from a half-dozen up to twentv or thirty tramps climb upon the train. They were maiuly STOUT; HEARTY YOUNG MEN, from 1810 25 years of age. This was right in the hight of the harvest-season, when harvest- hands were much in demand. But farmers whom T met informed me that tney had offcred 2250 g day and board, without being able to ect 2 man who would work. One farmer, m Ogle County, told me that, needing four hends, lre went to 3 gang of about twenty-five tramps, and offered $2.50 per day and board, without being able to get a single man. Many suppose that, with the return of better times, the most of these tramps and criminals will take to honest work; but it wil! notsohappen. The tendeccy, if left to themselves, 2 1S TO GREATER DEMORALIZATION, rather than reform. Water will run down hill naturslly; it takes a force outside of itself to make it take 3 coutrary direction. Of the high-toned, gilt-edred criminals—offi- cials who rob banks, custodians of trust-funds, confiGential clerks, and treasurers, who betray their trusis—it is not my purpose to write; but rather of this great increase of common crim- inals. We ars brought face to face with the fact that our towns-end rural districts are filled with a class—in numbers slarming, and constantly increasinz—whose only business is crime; and that our present. existing laws, in ‘neitber their scope nor administration, are able 10 hola them in check, and protect gocicty from their depredaticns. Another fact, still more alarming, but receiv- ing too littlc sttention, is that there are con- ditions and influcnces, constant in tbeir opera- tior, whose natoral and inevitable tendencyis to SWELL THIS VOLUAE OF CRIME, and adq to the number of the vagrant and erim- inal classes. The remedies for this condition of things must be two-fold in character: First. such re- pressive measures as will hold in check. intimi date, and control the prescut existing criminal classes; and sccond, aud much more inportant, such. measures as will cut off the sources of supply. The first may be quickly adopted and enforced, and give a measure of relicf and_security within a com- poratively short time. The others will have to be more comprebensive in their character, will Le more gradual in their operation, and must Le persevercd in through gencrations before their full bencfit is realized. Some of these measures the public seotiment 18 fuliy prepared for, and they can be_adopted and enforced. To others thespublic mind TAS GOT TO BE EDUCATED pefore it will sec either the utility or necessity of their adoption. They will -strike many _as radieal, extreme; contrary to the genius and spirit on which our Goverument is founded; striking a blow at personal rights and the doc- trine that all meu are equal,—an attack upon ipalienable rights. In indicating what, to my mind, some of these measures should be, ! shail not attempt to argue their merits,—the - Jimits of this article not permitting. * PUNISHMENT OF CRIME- ‘We netd, first, the.prompt and vigorous en- forcement of laws against crime,—the prompt arrest, trial, and punishment of every person detected in committing offunses against either persong or properly. Arrest and pun- isbment “should be so - speedy as to be a terror to evildoers. This should be donc . under (ke law, and sccordind 10 its forms. But, where or when, from the insulliciency of the law, or the inefli- ciency or faithlessness of thox: charged with its execution, such results cannot beattained under the law, cach community should take the law in- 1o its own hands,—formivg a Vigilance Com- mittee.of its best members, and supported by tlic entire community,—which should arrest. try, and punish al} offenders agaiust either per- s0RS Or proverty,—meting out punishment ac- cording to the enormity of the offense, cven to the ‘extent of capital in cases of murder or rape. “Desperatediseasesrequiredesperateremedies.” Seif-prescrvation is - toc first law of nature. Such power should be exercised until, and only until, it-can be turned over to the civil power. LAWS AGAINST VAGRANCY. Second—The cnactment in each Stale of severe laws against vagrancy, Jike that recently enacted by the Lerislature of New Hampshire, and their vigzorous enforcement, making va- grancy a crime (as it really is), punishabie by imprisonment at hard labor. INDETERMINATE SENTENCES. Third—A reform of our present prison sys- tem,—substituting indeterminate for definife sen- tences,—the convict obtaininz his liberty only by good conduct, and turnishiug satistactory evidence of such reformation of character that soclety will not be endangered by his being st at liverty. PENAL SETTLEMENTS. Fourth—There should also be established penal settlements, to take the place in part of our penitentiary system, to which ‘convicts can be sent till they give evidence of & thorough reformation of character. No part of the penal system of Great Eritain has been more satisfac- tory in results accomplished than its penal colo- nies. Thousands in them, sent out as couvicts, are wow prosperous farmers, mechanics, and tradesmen, without the taint that would bave attached to them had they served out their term and been discharzed from a home-prison. No oue has ever known cxactly why Alaska was purchased; but, having got it, no better use can be made of the country than to usc it {or penal settlements. Itsfisheries, mines, pine- forests, and coal-fields would furnish profitable emplovment for the labor of convicts, which would not then come in injurious competition with that of the industrious mechanic. = JUVENILE REFORMATORIES. - Fifth—Reformatories for juvenile offenders of both sexes, where they could be for, educated, and taught trades; or from which they could be aoprenticed to .families in the country, if withont parents suitable to have the care ot them. - Prevention is not only better, ‘but chieaper, than cure. CONTROL OF CHILDREX OF VICIOUS HABITS. Sizth—The power to take’ from viclous and criminal parents the control of their. children 2nd place them in industrial schools, or fami- 1ies in the country, where they wili be trained up in habits of industry and virtue. Plrem’;%e gives no ope the rignt to ruin his child. e commuuity should not allow bim to do it. . PRACTICAL STUDIES IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Seventi—3 remodellng -of our public-school system,—substituting, in place of nun-essential and_ ornamental brauches, instruction in busi- ness or practical _industrics, such as bookkeepmng, telcgraphy, - ghorthand, dress- making, milliverv, . cooking, and _home- ornamentation, primary .and, 88 far 85 practicable, practical instruction in mechanical trades (it is done in France, and can be in this country), farming and fruit-grow- ing, the feeding and care of live-stock and poul- try, ctc., ete- Teach the boys and girls how to 4o thines that somebody will pay them for do- ing. Place in the hand of each oucan imple- ment by which bread cun_be won. I do not undervalue culture, but bread-winning is of parsmouut importance. We' are educating our chitdren away from, instead of tdward, the bome, and farm, and work-shops. Tauy come out of our schools precociously wise and cul- tured, but without knowing how to do any. one thing which people are ready to pay for having done. They flock to our eitics and towns in search of gen- teel employment, snd succumb by thousands to their temptations, as would . not have been the casc had they been practically educated. PROPERTY AND EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS FOR SUFFRAGE. Eighth—Restricted suffraze. The accident of being born of the male sex does not necessarily fmply the right to cast a ballot on attaining, the age of 21 years, as Wany seem to suppose. Toe ballot is but a means to an end, and that end good government. No one has a matural right to use it, or take part in the selection of rulers or the cnactment of Jaws. who cannot exercise that rizht intellizent- Iy, and will not do it consclentiously. ~Neither has the man who pass no taxes a right by his vote to control end dictate matters of public expenditure to which e contributes notbing. There should bea small property-qualifieation, 1ot s large as to be beyond the attainment of a0y industrious, prudent man, and yet large enough to insure that _cach voter is futerested ou-the side of economical administration and the preservation of good order and Zo0d government. ~There sbould also be an' educational qualification.§ to_the ex- tent of being able to read and write Pauperism, and conviction’ for crime, should disfranchise. The ballot iv the hands of igno- rant and vicious voters is an_element ol danger in any community, since it may lead to iax Jaws in regard to crime, ;or the election of Judses and other officials who will favor the criminal classes, as mapy communities have tound to their cost. REGULATION OF MARRIAGE. Ninth—Stringent laws in relation to marriage, —Tequiring ap licants for license to furpish proot of zood character (at least to the extent now required to obtsin a saloon-license), ability to .support a famlily, aod {free- dom from chronic or hereditary disease. Physical, mental, and moral qualities are trans- miited to their offspring. Iu every community there are peoplé living with such diseased bodily condition, either inherited or tbe consequence of their own vices, and with, worse still, such depraved character, that the bringing of cail- dren into the world by ther: js a grievous sin,— there being an almost absolute certaiuty that such children, inberiting the disessed bodily condition or debased moral character of the parents, will fall into and telp swell the ranks of the pauper or criminal classes,—in either case a burden upon and a cursé to society. Not long since, alady who bad eiven much thought to these questions said to want vou to say what I 25 a Woman ¢capuot & That the time is coming when the State will iave to call to its aid the surzeon’s kuife to io- capacitate a half-million of criniinals and tramps from reproducing their kind.” Without iu- " dorsing the sentiment, I comply with ber re- quest. THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC. Tenth—The suppression, or more strict regu 1ation. of the liquor tratiic,—more demoralizing 1n its effects than auy other agency for evil. COLONIZATION OF THE WORTHY POOR. Elevenin—Comprenensive measures to aid fam- ilies of the worthy poor to settle and acquire homes upon land,” where they ean rear their families awav from the demoralizing influences to which they are exposed in our cties and lar- mer towns. T might extend these suegestions to greater length, but think I have given cnough for one article. ‘What £ especially desire to impress is the pecessity of strong mncasures baving for their object the preention of crime and lawless- ness, by removing the causes aud cutting off the source of suppiv. These evils will not cure themselves. Tney are radical and deev-seated, and must receive RADICAL AND THOROUGE TREATMENT. If Cobsututions, either Nationul er State, or theories of wovernment, stand in the way of meusures necessary to public safety, they must be altered or amended to suit the necessities of the age and time. 0. C. Gisss. oHIO. - Leading Buckeyes, snd Their Residences. Snecial Correspondence of The Tribune. PAINESVILLE, O., Aug. 19.—To koow how 2 great man spends bis time, and whether bis private babits are- like those of other men, is alivays of interest to the great mass of gommon mortals, ‘They have, of course, some things always in 2ommon with the masses, and to know just what these are, and bow many things arc different, and how different they are, is the mat- ter of fmportance. ‘The men of note in Ohio bave almost invaria- bly been raised 1 the country, aud gencrally have remained there during all their liv Their babits have been simple, their lives fru- gal. In proof of this, witness the Corwins, Giddingses, Wades, Ewings, Allens, Harrisons, and many others of the past. But, if this was truein the past, it is noless truein the pres- ent. The great men of to-day are all from the country, or from the small citics aund towns. As examples may be mentioned Garfield,. Thorman, Presideut Hayes, Foster, Ewing, the Shermans, West, ete. A glance.at the habits and homes of 2 few of thesc cannot fail to be of nterest to the general reader. Gen. James A. Gartield was raised upon a pioneer farm. and_alwavs cherisied 2 love for rural scenery and rural work. His ambition has always been to possess s farm of his own, and this desire was ratified about a year ago, when he removed trom Hiram, Portage County, to Mentor, Lake County, upou a fine 150-acre farm, situated on what is called the Ridze Roaa, —one of the most fertile sootsin the State,— within full sight of Lske Erie, and descending towards that beautiful body of water. lHere s four boys-aud little daughter, fanued by the pureand healthful breezes . from the Jake, and taught in the rudiments of life ou the farm, are comingup in a way which .nakes truc manhood aud womanhood. ~General himself revels in the new jov of being mouarch of the soil. His - youthful cxpericnce comes back to him, und, tanned and ruddy, he engages with his owu bands i ali the arduous work of farm-ife. He bas two fine teams,—one, 3 heavy span- of bay horses, for whick he paid about ‘§300; the other, a plump voke of oxen. bearing the traditional titles of Buck and_ Brieht, which were selected for him by his friend, Dr. J. P. Robison. The General takes peculiar deiizht in driving this team, ang? with broad paim-leaf hatand beavy cowhide boots, he handles the whip with peculiar skill, —the houest brutes answenng his deep-toned “Haw, Buck™ and “Ho, Bright,” with the utmost fidelity. The General’s house 'is 4 low cottage, such as appear all over the county, with the sivgle ex- ception that there is, apparently, a cityfied ap- pearance given by a vew porch that has been cxtended across the entire front. ‘The farm is compused of grain-produciog land, and - the General has schemes of his own about the introduction of the best varieties upon it. It was my zood fortune to be with him during a trip last 1all to the Hocking und Muskingum Valleys, and I was astonished to sec with what fluency and intellizence he conversed upon the various épecies of wheat, etc.; and it was here that he ootained some samples of sceds which produced the remarkable barvest he has just reaped. - What time the General is oblized to spend away from this beautiful summer-home, he feels is a real loss: and soin tjuth it is. Here, right in view of that great thorouchfare, the Lake Shore & Michigau_ Southern Ratiroad, and only a short distance from Mentor Station. be is in good commupication with the outside world, and yet as retired as a countrs-home need be. - The Hon. Charles Foster is well known as a business-man. Hé resides at Fostoria,—a small town which has become of late years guite a railroad-centre. Toe town was pamed after the Fosters. wno src the oldest famlics. Charley—as he has been Known for years— is a successful business-man. and, with his father, owns extensive farming-lands. He is a general favorite with the people of the whole region round about. Fostoria, being near the corner of threc counties, is the natural market for a considerable region; and it was but in response to a general demand on the part of his fellow-citizens that he went to Con- gress in the besinning. President Hayes’ home, just outside of the pleasant Village of Fremont, has been so often written up that it has lost a certain degree of its freshness. ¢ Juage West was, in early life, 2 school-teach- er, but soon after became ™ & lawyer, and took high rank in bis professicn. He was consid- ered very feeble last year when he was running for the Governorship, notwithstanding some of the most vigorous speeches that have ever been made in the State since the good days of Thomas Corwin. He resides in a modest way in the pleasant Town of Beilefontaine, and depends entirely, since the almost complete loss of his eyesizht, upon the reading of his son for the very accurate knowledge which he keeps up of all passing events. He took his defeat last fall as a matter of course, and, more _yigorous and belligerent than ever, is now ready for the com- ing of the present campaign. He has been as- signed by the State Central Committee to open the campalen with Gen. Garfleld. Maj. McKinley, the eallant younz member from the Massillon District, is alawyer, and has resided for a few years past at Canton, in Stark County. Hewas ralsed, however, in the little country-town of Poland, and from that town- ship eniisted, when less than 17 years old, a8 a private soldier. The Bon. James Monroe, or Prof. Monroe as he s still known among his friends, is 3 resident of Oberlin, and was formerly a Professor in the College there. He is one of the purest of men, and has_recently been rcnominated for Con- gress, He will be elected, without the shadow of adoubt. His residence is in the heart of the village, and is the same he used to occuny when Professor of Belles Lettres there. He lias no occupation except Follr.iu and statecraft now, and, while in Oberlin, devotes himself to study. The Hon. Frank Hurd, the Democrat who made such a strong fight and _defeated so com- pletely Gen. Steedman in the Fremont Conven- tion, and who will be elected to represent the ‘Toledo District, provided the Nationals do not steal the march on_bim, is 2 well-known lawyer and statesman of Toledu. He stands very close tothe head of the Bar in that city, and was talked of quite prominently as a candidate for the United States Senate in place of Georee H. Pendlcton, last winter. He is an unostentatious man, but is generally retaived upon one side or the other of all the great cases that come before the Toledo courts. MARINE NEWS. BUFFALO.

The Produce Markets Tame and Mostly Easier---Hogs Firm. g Qorn and Wheat Weak—Grain Shipments Aotive—Movement During the Week. FINANCIAL. Saturday was another day of rather light car- rency orders from the country. The.movement during the week just closed has not been 85 heavy as it promised the week before to be. Both the country and the Chicago banks vrdered very freely atfirst, a8 they were ;uncertain how much would be needed. Natarally under these circumetances the amount of currency ordered at first was not a fair measure of what the regular daily movement would be. The shioments of currency, however, anto the country have been regular, and taken altogether will make a large sum for the week. The railroads are doing 8 very encouraging busi- nexe. The moet promising feature of the situation is the zood export demand for our grain, and it looks now as if this wonld continue. The price of New York exchange was 60@80c per $1,000 ais- count. - The discount market has shown 8 slight change for the better. The orders for currency have al- ready led to some applications for rediscounts to country banks, and the oreninfof the fall trade has brought some elicht increase of the supply of Degotiable paper.” Rates are G@10 per cent at the banks to regular enstomers, wilh special rates to first-class outside customers.

The receiots at Toledo und Detroit are large enough to give rize to n seri- ous’ competition with the porta on the western shore of Lake Michigan, ahd grain is already piling up here at a rapid rate. Some operators predict that we shall have fully 4,000. 000 bu of corn aione 1n store here at the close of August, besides fuil #locks of other grain. Carriers bave hitherto been disposed to hold off for higher rates, but weskened a littlé Satarday. R ‘The leading produce markets were rather irregun- lar Saturday, with only a moderate volume of bus- iness transacted. Grain was easler, corn being quite weak most of the time, and wheat ditto the latter part of the session. The fact of big receipts was urged as suflicient reason for a big decline] es- pecially in wheat, which is said to be relatively high in all the Western markets. Oats and barley ‘were easier in sympathy, while provisions were easy, though hogs were rmer. The early feeling in wheat was strong decause of news of storms fn England, but the strength was not sustained. Jobbers of dry-goods were well pleased with the position of the market, the demand showingateady and satisfactory improvement, and prices remain: ing very firm both for cotton and woolen textiles. Prints, brown sneetings, the leading brands of bleached sheetings, and some other lines of cotton goods have an upward tendency. There is contin- ued imorovement 1n the demand for groceries, and the warket mamtaing a fGrm and bealthy tone. Coffees, sugars, and rice are specially firm. There were no price changes, though an advance in sugars seems imminent.- Dried fruits were quoted in fair request, with prices eieady for most lines. Butter was moving freely at fully-sustained prices, Some comvlaints are heard of a scarcity of fine ta- ble grades, bat of all other descriptions there fa an ample supply. The firm tone for some days past pervading the cheese market continues, and in fine, full creams the tendency is rather uoward. Fish _were quoted quiet and steady. No chanees were reported in the market for oils, paint, and colors. Leather, bagging, tobacco, cost, and wood were quoted as before. The cargo lumber market was quiet Saturday, the offerings being very light. Prices for inch were unchanged and standard piece stuf closed steadier. At the yards trade continues to improve, and deslers as a rule are billing lamber at the pab- lished price-list. Wool was steady. The eales of proom corn were chiefly to small manufacturers, and prices were casy under fair offerings and fav- orable crop reports. Hides were steady under good demand from dealers. Sceds were In zood demand and steady, except cloverand the lower grades of timothy, which were casier. The eales of potatoes were fair and prices were steady, the stock being only suflicientto cnable dealers to at- tend to orders promptly. Ponltry was slow and eaey, and ezgs eteady, Lake freizhts were active and abont Yc lower, shivpers taking hold quite frecly at the redaction. Rates were 3%@3%c for corn, and 4@44c for wheat by sail to Buflalo. Room was taken for 315,000 bu wheat, 385,000 ba corn, and 225,000 bu oata. Rail freights were quiet at the recent advance ‘The rates per 100 Ibs on grain are mow 30c to New York and 35c to New England points; to Baltimore 32c. Boxed meats, pork, and lard, 5S¢ more than the above figures, and Joose meats 10c wore than grain. 1t was rumored that rail freights will be further advanced the coming week. Through rates by lake and rail were quoted firm at 12¢ and 13¢ for cornand wheat to New York, and 18c for corn to Boston. Sail and canal to New York were 11%c on wheat and 10%@11con corn.

NEW WeSTMINSTER, British Columbia, July 25.—Salmore 1 cent & piece; that is the market value of the fish along the banks of the Fraser River at preseot. The *-run, as the fishermen call it, has oeen unpreedented. Indeed, the canperies have more fish than they know what to do with, and thousands of dead salmon are daily thrown into the river because there are not men cnough to can them. Each canpery is turning out irom 400 1o 1,000 cases daily. The profit on each case varies in different vears, ac- cordmg to the run of fish, from $1.50 to $3.50; this year it will probably be more. Chinamen do all the work afrer the fish is landea. The fishivg is principally done by Indians. A good many people say that the prescot *run” may be expected every year, as they urge that until pow the correct mode of catching the fish has not been understood. Several of the canneries are Dot only canning salmon, but bave begun to salt the fish and pack it away in barrels. A good many people in_the colon{ cry out against the employment of Chinese labor. But for the Chinamen the fisheries coula not exist; it would be impossible to obtain white labor to do tbe work. Indeed, the cannery proprictors would be very glad to get whites. The season lasts for a few weeks only, and at the end of that time the men would be out of work. The Chinamen board themselves. and st the end of the “run” take themeeives off. . with 1ittle better les. ‘The re; hort ribs at 00210,50 for extra mess, aud £19.50 There was a light inquiry forshipment, but jitile done except on local count, while prices were well maintaincd as stocks Sales were reported of 20,brls win- ters partly at $5.00: 700 bris spring extras chiefly st $4.25@5.%5; 110.brls superfices at $3.0063.57%: and 2.50G3.50 for tine, $3.50 @4.00 for superiines, $4.50@5.50 for extras, $5.00G6.00 for double extras, and $6.002$.00 for patentsand some d by ine facts in the case. and that spring seller Octover sold at The weekly repurt shows " the attantion. ‘bosrd ihe mast dellcata astestion. beme wnd beard 3Ry ARRIVAL A0 DEPARTURE OF TRy Exrra REFERENCE Mapxs.—t Sar R & -t Sary, §icspied. *sunday excepted.
