Prison Problems.

There was a grand symposium through
ject of prison work, prison reform. That
subject needs to be discussed and discussed
by practical thinkers. Too little is known
about the whole subject of our prisons by
the public. 1t would be we'll if the nation
took deeper interest than it does in the
matter. The people are rarely interested
beyond the discussion of the probable effect
which convict labor has on free outside la
Dor. The humanitarian and true economic
sides of the subject are generally untouched.
At the recent session of the National
Prison Association, in Cincinnati Warden
Brush. of the Sing Sing prison, in New
York. pointed out. in practical manner.
the two great deficiencies in this nation
which ought to be laid to heart. He showed,
irrefutably. what is known to all thought
full persons. that the lack. the painful lack
of sound parental discipline, is the domi-
nant factor in providing subjects for prison
life. The diSObedience of children and
their defiance of parental authority is fol-
lowed. naturally. by their diSObedience to
the laws of the country. Law abiding peo-
pie begin their law abiding course in the
nursery, in the home.
Another deficiency named by Warden
Brush is the weakness of our prison disci-
pline. He holds that the penitentiary life
must be corrective and refOrmatOry. The
ignorant convict must be purged of his ig-
nOrance; must be taught to read and write;
must be taught trade. He must have reg
ular work of some kind, or the penitentiary
system is farce.
And then the slender care and supervisor
which is given to the released convict is an
abuse which ought to be remedied. Most
cOnvicts, after serving their terms. return
to the old vicious life. Nobody cares for
them. Everybody fears to employ them.
In a few states efforts are making to change
this bad state of affairs. But it ought to be
part of all dealing with convicts that,
when they get out of prison. some provis-
ion will be made to keep them under good
influences and to get them permanent work.
AS it is. police records all show that most
of the parties arrested are old offenders,
who have been incarcerated and resume the
old life as soon as released.
A perpleXing subject to deal with, truly.
After all. however, the true prison reform
consists in keeping people out of prisons.
This is to be done by bringing up children
to habits of obedience. 1t can be done by
rescung the children of vicious parents and
setting them on the right course in life.-
