CONVICT LABOR.

A very interesting conference upon
convict labor was recent J held in New
York, at which there were representa-
tives f:om Massachusetts. New jersey,
Connecticut and New York. The sub
ject was discussed by Prof. Francis
Wayland, of Yale College, president Of
the State Prison Association OF Con-
necticut, and chairman Of the Board OF
Prison Inspectors by Elisha Harris
and DR.. Wines. and by several gentle
men representing the hating interest.
which seems chiefly to suffer by con :
vict competition. The question Is one
OF importance enough to have arrested
the attention Of party platform makers.
and there have bean some exceedingly
warm denunciations of convict compe-
ti;ion. designed to catch votes.
There is undoubtedly very great and
outrageous abuse Of the contract sys
tenn. A system which authorizes con-
tractors to bring workmen into prison
and associate them with prisoners In .
common work, is one which levels oil
distinction between honest and penal
labor, and it is necesssrily dsmoraliz.
ing. But because the present opera
ton of the contract system may be Of
ten very pcrniclous, it does not follow
that convict labor should be disoontin-
ned, or that it should be limited ex-
clusyely to stone breaking. Professor
Wayland said that there had been less
progress during the last twenty five
years in State Prison reform than in
any other direction. and be cited the
Elmira Reformatory Of young Offend
ers as the one practical experiment OF
reforming criminals. He holds. with
all the lenders in such questions. that
prisons if possible, should be self-sup-
porting, and that State supervision OF
convict labor will tend to reform the
conyic,s. In Connecticut there are 22O
out of $50 convicts employed in skilled
labor. Many of them are reformed BY
it but when they leave the@prison it
j. very hard for them to fnd employ.
ment at benches with honest workmen.
The gentlemen who appeared for the
hat interest said that eleven per cent.
Of the fur hat work in the country was
done in prisons. and 10 that degree the
contract labor system injured the hon.
es. workmen. 1t would be. in their
Judgment, better to send criminals ia
penal colonies than to crush honest 10
Dor ut home with their work. Dr..
Wines and DR.. Harris argued that il
convict labor were distributed among
all trades. its rivalry would be scarcely
felt outside. They also agreed that
while tho partisan management Of pris.
ons continued, it would be almost i'm
possible to abolish the contract system
Of labor II there were reasonable
tenure Of good behavior among the
prison officers. the State could pro3ta-
bly, arrange prison labor. So from ev-
cry side comes the practical argument
for reform. The Commissioners will
report to the Legislatures Of their
States the results Of their inquiry. with
recommendation for legislation.
