THE STATE.
Lore Terms For DisOrderlies.

IIOrg Terms For DiSOrderlies.
The following communication has been
sent out by the state board of corrections
and charities
To the police justice and those exercising
like jurisdictiction;
1t is certain that a large proportion of
the persons convicted before you are ar
rested under the disorderly act. A large
number OF these are old offenders, are
chronic cases. As rule they are lined
small sum or imprisoned few days. This
is repeated year by year, until we find
some have been in the Detroit house OF
correction fitty-seven times, and at lonia
it was as bad until the statute prohibited
sending persons there as disorderly per-
sons and for less than ninety days.
IL requires but little experience to con-
vince anyone that small fines and short
terms not only do not deter or improve
this class, hut harden, brutali>e and con-
firm them in their criminal course,
Especially is this the case with women.
A second OF third conviction usually
puts this class beyond hope, unless put
under restraint long enough TO restore
their moral strength. The snort sentence
simply permits of n partial recovery from
the effects of dissipation.
The same principal applies TO like SEN
fences TO county jais of this class.
such sentences are libel on justice,
and can only tend to make criminals.
This class of chronic disord erlies hould
be kept for term OF years. Ihero then
would be some chance TOR reform. Even
if not reformed, they would be kept sober,
made TO work, kept out OF the han Is Of
the saloon-keeperS constables and courts,
out OF sight-which all work in the direc-
ton of reform.
We call your attention to these views
ask your careful consideration OF them,
and urge you to apply the remedy so far
as the statute has given you power.
The disorderly act authorizes you to
Jsend those thrice or more times convicted
to prison for one year; twice convicted,
SIX months.
We urge upon you that as TO all chronic
cases you cease all fines, and sentence III
all cases to the full term OF the law. The
state will be the gamer in the matter of
expense, and we believe many can in this
way be improved, and some reformed.
