THE PAROLE SYSTEM AGAIN.

1t is objected that the paroling of con-
victs in America will be of doubtful wis
dom, because under our system no such
police surveillance of them will be posi-
bic as is exercised in Europe. We do not
think this an obstacle 1t is not only not
necessary that our ticket of leave men
should be logged by police, but unadvisa
BILE that they should be- Mt. Wines, Sec
rotary of the Illinois Board of Charities,
has recently said:
The supervision OF paroled prisoner cannot
be in America what it is where they have
more efficient police. Our police is for the most
part, confined TO cities and larger towns, While
many criminals live or would find employment
in rural districts, removed from police super
vision. 1t has been suggested abroad that the
task of supervision might be placed wholly or
in part in the hands OF prisoners aid societies,
but we have no such societies. At least they
are few in number, and restricted in their &C
tivity They could not, 1 think, undertake or
successfully accomplish this word. But te en-
pLOyer Of the pris0Rer-and prisoner should
never be paroled without employment first
found for hlm-may be engaged to watch over
him, and report to the authorities any apparent
deviation from the path in which he should
walk. Prison Director Siehart, of Wurtemberg,
that the paroled prisoner should not be sub
jected to unnecessary modification; that what
he requires is protection against any hinder
anee which may exist TO his honorable success !;
and that in no event should surveillance of any
description be continued longer than the cir
cumstanceso OF each case seem to require.
PROFESSIONALLY this is the correct view.
When the RECORD UNION discussed the
question some months. ago, and expressed
its approval of the plans of the California
Pathological Commission regarding the
parole system, it then pointed out that the
weekly report system would, aided by
communication with the employers of pa
rolled prisoners, keep the prison officials
constantly informed concerning the where
abouts and conduct of their criminal ward.
The more the parole system is discussed
the more it gains in strength and favor
No objections have as yet been raised to it
that have not been satisfactorily answered
California ought to adopt it at once. No
State really has greater need for it. With
our sparse population and abnormally
large number of convicts at San Quentin
and Folsom, the parole system seems to be
a necessity for US. 1t will relieve the
pressure upon the prisons, tend to break
up schools of crime, will give convicts who
sincerely desire to reform full opportunity
to do so, and viii remove from them the
surveillance and blackmail threats that
now practically bar honest paths against
them when discharged, and that drive
them back to their former vicious prac-
tees.

in recent essays, said as much, in the light
of their experience. The law-abiding and

lawlessness in all forms, are chief among
those who insist that our legal methods in
criminal cases are Intolerably slow, and it
is their complaint, not that of the mob,

THE death of Charles Francis Adams,
ST., comes in the fullness of many years
upon his shoulders. He died ripe in age,
and after long and faithful service to his
grateful country. 1t will never be forgot
ten that during all the dark years of the
rebellion Mr.. Adams stood at the Court of
St. James, the valiant champion of the
Union of States. He did not fear to beard
the British Lion in his lair by protesting
with more than warmth against the fitting
out of Confederate men-of war and pri-
vateers in English ports. By persistence,
boldness and the rare wit Of craftsmanship
he brought the Crown finally to admission
of the great wrong it was doing, and thus
established forever the doctrine that bellig-
erents cannot use neutral port as the
Love Of ooI between them. Mr. Adams
was scholar of an advanced type, and his
intellect has made its impression upon the
chief pages of our modern political history.
He was proud, in some respects a cold
man, but it was the pride of achievement,
worth and genius, not of title and blood.
He came of family of patriots, whose
names will shine in American history with
undimmed luster, to which his own event
full and useful life will add brilliancy.

ARCHBISHOP CoRRIGAN, of the Roman
Catholic Church, has entered his official
protest against the new doctrine that men
have no right in property as the result of
their industry, frugality and foresight.
The right of ownership in that one has
produced is strongly defended, and the
fallacy that because one cannot own light
and air, he, therefore, should not possess
more substantial matter, as the reward of
industry, is exposed and condemned. The
Archbishop's enunciation of the principles
upon which the right of private owner
ship of land is based, is not new; he gives
voice to truisms. But his protest is aimed
against the specious doctrines of Henry
George Of to-day, who has drifted away
from the Henry George of a few years ago.
The Catholic Church discovers moral sub
structure to the legal right Mr.. George as
sails, and thus arrays itself against him,
and with the better thought of the age.

THE Christian Union which, while a
representative religious paper, very boldly
and incisively discusses political questions,
mainly from the standpoint of an observer
outside of political lines, says, in review of
the recent elections: In short. so far as
the election indicates anything, it is that the
Republican party in defeat is still an army,
with principle and purpose; and that
the Democratic party in victory is only a
crowd, with no accepted leader and no
well-defned PURPOSE

IT seems strange that so intelligent
journal as the Charleston Nems should
speak of the utter destruction of brick
houses in that city as zone of the most
remarkable manifestations of the great
earthquake in South Carolina. 1t seems to
us also remarkable" that the people of
Charleston should be surprised at the
downfall of brick, and the comparative
safety of wooden structures under such
circumstances. The very weight of the
brick building, which the Nars thinks
should count in its favor, is really a chief
reason for its downfall 1t resists the
earthquake wave, and the upheaval breaks
up the brick bonds, disintegrates the NOR
tar, in a sense, and the walls, as a conse-
quence, easily crumble. The wooden
house, on the other hand, is elastic, yields
to the uprising of the ground, or moves
with its horizontal motion. The Charles
ton people, if they learn wisdom by their
experience, viii bind their brick walls to
every rafter and wall-piercing timber, by
small anchors, and will add a portion of
cement to the mortar in their new brick
and stone constructions.
