Congressman VIM. L. Wilson
is urging the President to make
Senator Faulkner a District of
Columbia Judge. Ifthis appoint.
ment be made it is understood
that the Presidentwill urge the
appointment of Mr.. Wilson to
succeed Mr.. Faulkner in the
senate.
We fear that the appeal will
fall on deaf ears. The prize will
be in the gift of Governor Mac
Corkle, who will be likely to be-
stow it on his friend Joe Chiffon.

In writing on the subject Of prison re-
form In the various states throughout
the union Samuel j. Barrows in an
article in the New England Magazine
gives utterance 70 some very truthfni
and pointed remarIss He says:
I'm every state in the union, the
leaders in prison reform are Obliged 70
90 70 the Legislature again and again
with feryent appeals repeated and pro-
longed, sometimes for number Of
years, TO secure measures and reforms
which % students 81 the subject are
necessary and urgent. The prison re
former Of to-day is not a rose-water
sentimentaiist. He must be student
OF the social and moral problems which
enter into the large and difficult sub.
ject Of crime and its treatment. How
complex and mysterious many of these
elements are. only those who have at
tempted TO grasp them can understand.
Indeed, on many Of the questions in.
yolycd in this subject, NO one can be
dognatic We must wait for further
light and experience. n there be some
disadvantage in the Contradictions Of
the criminal codes Of the different
states, and the prison system attached
70 them, there is some advantage
in the fact that different states
are making different experiments
along different lines concerning the re-
duction Of crime and the treatment Of
the criminal. If there is a wide di-
versity ofpractice in prison administra-
ton in the different states. it may be
said that prison rcfor1ners have come TO
a general and even warm and positive
agreement concerning the Fundamental
principles OF prison reform phese
principles may be briefly stated as, first,
the protection Of society, and second,
the reformation Of the prisoner. Asto
how these principles are to be applied
and these ends attained, prison author
tiles differ; but that these are the ends
to be worked for, they earnestly agree.
