PROF. NJ. II. Hollis VIEWS.

Much has been said and written about
the necessity for the establishment of
Reformatory for young criminals in our
State. Various political and religious
organizations have passed resolutions
favoring such an institution Men OF
prominence have given the subject much
thought, and through their representa-
tives have waited upon the General As
senlbly at several of its recent sessions.
and urged the claims of such an establish
ment from moral as well as economic
standpoint. But in view Of our impoyer-
ished condition as a State, and our pre-
sent inadequate provision for our public
schools, our legislatures Of the past have
held to the idea that unless we had a few
more ounces Of prevention in the shape
Of better general educational advantages
it would not be good policy to invest in
many forms Of Reformatory cure That
1t is unwise to put youthful offenders.
where they are in daily contact with har-
.dened criminals, from which association
they are likely to come forth a menace to
human society, no one denies. But for
any man, political party, or church to
take the stand that under our present
financial and educational condition, the
State ought to take upon itself any
hes Y additional burdens for this pur-
pose, is the veriest sentiment. Such a
step would be both unwise and unneces-
sary. | have a suggestion to make-not
to the idealist, the sentimentalist-but to
the practical legislator who will find
the pressure upon him very great. to do
something along the line, and the
means to do that something with. very
circumscribed. Pass a bill for the sonar
alton OF the youthful criminals from the
older ones. Provide that they shall be
placed upon a few hundred acres OF one
OF the State farms. Provide that the
buildings shall be plain and inexpensive.
provide that the institution shall be a
part OF the State penitentiary, and hence
under the general control OF the super
intendent Of that establishment, provide
that there shall be separation OF the
sexes and races, under the direct over
sight OF practical men and women, pro-
vide that they shall have four months
school each year, with incidental relig-
ious advantages, and be compelled to
work the other eight months, on the
farm and in work shops. Other details
viii adjust themselves. A few hundred
dollars will suffice to make this arrange
ment, and a few hundred more annual
~ will support it. With this adjustment
OF the matter, the class whose benefit is
sought will receive it as completely as in
the million dollar establishments for the
same purpose in the richer States, where
social conditions are different

The reputation OF fIorth Carolina for
providing and earrings for her unfortun-
ate would indicate th&t the time had full
" come for the establishment of this
much needed and long talked of institu-
ton. The necessity OF such an enterprise
has been worked out by the operations of
other institutions for the unfortunate
classes.
/. Our State prison has long ago de-
monstrated the neea of separate quar-
ters, and different treatment for our
youthful criminals. They need to be
reformed, and can be reformed, as many
like institutions in tie United States have
shown. There is an idea in the minds

Tue first OF the ennobling lessons OF
true progress, albeit in sentiment, was
taught yesterday, when, for the first
time, there was a service IN honor of the
unknown dead. They are no longer un-
known They were Mortimer and South
rons- They are Americans.
More than 1000 years ago erring re-
,igious sentiment was never nearer
the true ideal of the divinity who sanctified
abor and progress than when it reared
a temple to the unknown god.
There is no ground holy or more common

hands be cIasped more affectionately, more
freely. or more truly, than over that IN
which Fate made brothers OF the sleepcrs

that they were foemcn.

to which Uncle Sam points again are the

there are no Coronations except of dead

The invisible feature at Arlington yes
