AN ANNOUNCEMENT.

Governor Merriam has made a material
and important change in the ''Regulations
for the Conditional Pardon of State Prison
COnvicts from the Minnesota State Prison"
He has caused to be stricken out sections
two and three and the following to be in
serted:
Sec. 2. No prisoner shall be eligible for
conditional pardon who has not served at
least one half of the full term for which he
was sentenced, not reckoning any good
time.
The matter stricken out reads as follows:
No prisoner shall be eligible for cOndi-
tiOnal pardon who has not served at least
the minimum time prescribed by law for
the punishment of his Otfense. unless his
sentence be for one year or less. No pris-
Oner sentenced for one year or less shall re-
ceive conditional pardon before he has
served at least two thirds of his sentence
The amendment admits about sixty men
to the class eligible to parole who were ex-
cluded by the limits fixed by the regulations
as first made. Many of these men are
among the most worthy of trust and most
likely to honor their paroles. Life men are
not affected in any way by the new plan,
except that they will come under the grade

Those who condemn the modern reform
atory prison should come out boldly and
proclaim themselves in favor of the old
brutalizing methods that were popular when
the prison was used for punishment only
They should rise up and defend those pris-
ons in the south which are being so loudly
condemned throughout the country, for
they punish and do nothing but punish.
But no one claims that they are either ref

illogical subjects in the country, says in re
ply to contemporaries criticisms of the
reformatory prison: 1.-THE fact is. as the
Examiner could readily learn if it took
pains to investigate the subject, that the
criticisms made upon our prison system do
not apply to the refOrmatOries proper.
The refOrmatOrY system, indeed, has not
been adopted to any great extent in the
United States We may count on our fin
gers the institutions which can be properly
designated as refOrmatories. That some of
our prisons are schools of crime cannot
be doubted. but it is because the refOrma.
tory system has never been applied to them.
Prisons in which the men are allowed to
loaf, in which they are put together in large
dormitories with every opportunity for in
tercourse cannot be called reformatories in
any sense"

operative in the state prison by adopting a
system of conditional pardons complemented
by system of grades. From that time I'M
til now the matter has been receiving the
serious consideration of officials interested

ayers establishing system of grades and
marks. On the first day of June the plan
will 90 into operation and the Minnesota
State Prison will be abreast with modern
ideas. the old will have given place to the
new. It is an experiment only as it applies
to this particular prison, for it has been IN
operation in other states and other cOun-
tries for number of years. and has been
studied out and planned, not by one or two
experimenters, but by hundreds of practical
men who have advanced it step by step as
experience dictated. Educational training
is the soul of the new method. 1t endeav-
ors to elevate the criminal by degrees until
he is merged into an upright man fit for lib
erty. From the day a man enters the
prison under the new plan he is kept striv-
ing for elevation until the day he reaches
the degree of perfection that entities him to
partial liberty under parole. Once he is
paroled he is compelled to choose between
leading proper sort of life or becoming an
outlaw subject to being returned to prison
whenever caught. Liberty under this plan
becomes the price of we'll doing. Anyone
with natural reasoning powers must see the
advantage Of such a system over one by
which criminal is simply locked up for a
certain number of months and then turned
out to begin over again his career of crime,
dissipation or vagabondage. There are a
few who are welded to the old methods of
prison management and look upon the new
method as a sentimental arrangement but
they speak from prejudice or lack of
knowledge. There is no method of prison
management but may be made pernicious
by mismanagement. The prison population
of Minnesota has hardly increased at all in
the past three years while the population of
the state has increased during the same
period several hundred thousands. We ex-
pect to see this condition continue and even
improve with the aid of the new and better
method of dealing with convicted criminals.

their views and caused the Governor and
others to consider the matter. These per-
sons constituted the committee appointed to
