The record-union., 1891-02-26

The bill of Senator Dray Is. B. 12D
amends the code, if passed, so as to re-
lieve Sacramento of the surplus of JUS
tlces Of the Peace she now salaries. 1t
does not affect the incumbents of Justices,
| offices, but, when their terms expire,
gives to the city but one Justice to which
1t is compelled to pay salary. This has
been -hoped-for and much-desired
measure. In this city it will save to the
treasury $1,000 year and any amount of
annoyance. The REcoRD-UNIoN has fire.
quently explained how utterly useless
three Justices are to the people, and how
the conflict or contest between City and
Township Justices is demoralizing and
not calculated to advance the ends of JUS
tice. 1t is not necessary to travel in de-
tail over the ground again-the people are
familiar with it: In brief, however, the
trouble may be thus stated: Under the
law as it stands, Township Justice is
elected, as also are two City Justices. The
latter are salaried, the former lives upon
fees. AS consequence the City Justices
do little more than draw their salaries,
while the former gets nearly all the busi-
ness that has to be prosecuted in Justices
Court. How this comes about is easily
explained. The Township Justice is ia
vored by htigants, because fees do not
have to be paid in advance, and because
lawyers wish to take their cases before
that officer to cultivate his friendliness,
since if they go before the City Justices
for plaintiffs, and are broughtto the bar of
the Township Justice for defendants, they
fear that he may punish them by favor
ing the other party. However unjust the
implied reflection upon an incumbent
township officer may seem, it is simple
statement of the truth concerning the
sentiment that obtains. The bill of Sena-
tor Dray will save the city money and
not limit the number of Justices SO as to
affect the ability to discharge promptly all
business that comes before such magis-

to NEEDLE with the Parole Board, there
fore, since it is not in its power to confer
upon him any advantages or strength. If
it appeared that the political boss de-
sired prisoner paroled, it would still re-
main that it could not be done except the
time-records of the prison showed the
convict to be of the worthy class, and
that those in that class shall be sent out
out on parole is the purpose of the pro-
posed law. Moreover, the politician will
have no use for the convict, who, though
paroled, still remains in legal custody
and is liable to be returned to prison. OF
course the liability of attempts to corrupt
attaches to any and all officials, boards
and commissions, but we should not for
that reason abandon the selection of pub
lie servants.
The record-union., 1891-02-26

SOME friends of the prison parole sys-
tenn fear that California has not yet at
tanned that condition which is necessary
for the successful operation of the sys-
tenn. These fears are not warranted.
Very true, the State is thinly settled as
yet. but its civilization ,is level with the
reformatory work which the bill aims to
inaugurate. It may be true that very
many of our people are not well informed
concerning the parole system, but to in
troduce it is the speediest way to convey
to them information concerning it and to
win their approval of it. 1t is not, we
think, true that our people are lacking
IN humane sentiment or that they are
saturated with prejudice against men
who have been confined in prison. 1t is
true that political influence and manipu-
lation are not wholly eliminated from
our prison system, but we believe that
under the Senate bill a parole board can
be raised up that will not be subject to
political pressure. Even if it were
attempted, the bill lodges such dis
cretion in the Wardens that they
Will practically be the judges of what
prisoners are worthy to be trusted with
conditional freedom. Nor do we see
where there Will be temptation for politi-
cal motive to seek control of Parole
Board. The politician does nothing with
out deep purpose; he would not be likely
