RECOMMENDATION TO THE
BOARD OF PARDOXS.

The Legislature of 1888 ell
acted a law granting a commu-
tation of sentence for good be
havior to convicts in the State
Prison. 1t allowed them one
months credit a year for the
first two years, two months for
the second two, and four months
for each succeeding year of their
respective terms. This law the
Supreme Court declared uncon-
stitutional, so far as it related to
prisoners sentenced before the
passage of the Act. The de
cisiOn was based upon the
ground that the statute was an
interference with the jurisdic-
ton of the courts exercised
previous to the Enactment OF the
law. So far, however, as APP
piled to convicts sentenced sub
sequent to the passage of the
bill, the Court held it to be
good. Upon cold principle of
law, the decision was undoubt-
eddy correct, although certainly
not in conservance with public
policy or the rules of justice.
The matter Was called to the at
tention of the Senate State
Prison Committee during the
last session and the members
recognizing the justice Of the
proposition, endeavored to frame
a bill which would meet the re-
quirements of the case, and
avoid the Constitutional Obiec-
tons of the old law. They con-
suited number of prominent
attorneys upon the subject, but
they all decided that it would
be Impossible to draft an Act
which would reach the desirod
end without conflicting with the
Fundamental law. Finding them
selves unable to arrange the
matter in that way, the Com
mittee introduced in the Senate
a concurrent resolution, recon-
mending to the Board OF Par
dons that it exercise its powers
in accordance with the letter
and spirit Of the Ineffective law.
The resolution passed the Senate
unanimously, and we believe
also the Assembly withouta dis
sentipg vote. 1t is to be hoped
that the Board will act in ac-
cordance with the recommen-
dation of the Legislature in this
matter. By doing so it will not
only be carrying out a principle,
the irness Of which is beyond
question, but it will go far to-
wards maintaining discipline at
the prison by preventing in
suberdination, which is the nat
ural result of unjust discrimina-
ton. A convict working along
side of another, with an equally
good prison record, but because
Of the date of his sentence can
not receive the same credits, is
bound to chafe under such i'll
justice, and that feeling is at
any time liable to eliminate in
general INSTRUMENTATION and in
surrection. The Board should
at its next meeting adopt rule
in accordance with the Legisla-
tive resolution. Let it be known
at the prison that the pardoning
power will be exercised so that
no distinction in the matter Of
credits for good conduct will be
made. It will ma terially assist
the Warden in the dis charge of
his duty, by removing a cause of
discomfort which now exists,
and one which no f ir minded
person will hardly deny to be
but too well grounded.

Various Kinds Of Drunkards.



Some men seem to become drunk sudden
y, giving no previous indication BY thick
ness of articulation or unsteadlness of gait
this being commonly the case where mental
excitement from other causes, as heated
discussion prevails at the time. The most
dreadful and astounding cases are afforded
by those unfortunate people who are never
sober. How they manage 10 survive so long
they do is a mystery. There are men
Who have been peIpetually under the infiu-
enoe of liquor for twenty or thirty years. OF
course the brain must have become perma-
nently injured, 50 that we NAV infer that
the drink these persons nov take has little
~ no real effect on them. and that their state

do not suffer 50 much as intermittent drunk
ards-at any rate not so soon, for the newt
able consequence is only little longer de-
ierred. The writer knew an old doctor in
Jamaica who used to aver that the climate

er, that because a man was never intoxicated
he may not be drinking too much. Men EN-
ployed in the great brewerIes in London, e.
peclaliy the draymen, consume an enormou,
quantity Of beer. The daily allowance which
