sanity? And what intelligent
subordinate would put his heart
into the work he does for brutal
taskmaster? Take these thoughts
into consideration and you will
readily agree that punishment, Civ
ing it the most liberal interpreted
ton, has only temporary effect
upon man or beast. Brutality
begets brutality, just as kindness
is apt to inspire kindly return.
Any intelligent person upon dis
secting his own feelings and
thoughts upon the subject must
conclude that he would answer
more promptly to humane treat
ment than he would to brute force.
And, as an individual he would
ultimately feel punished more by
the thought of offending a public
having only the general social
good in view, than he would by
mere corporal deprivations; the
latter he could accustom himself
to accept as a matter of course.
1t is possible to develop the in
herent goodness to attain the end
sought by society in the treatment
of it's moral invalids. And it will
be found that the best means to
the end is by gaining the conf
dence and respect of the patients.
Human nature in the thinking in
dividual will readily inspire the
best methods to pursue in varying
cases. The main essential is to
procure the confidence and respect
Of the subject. Punishment in
some form will always be a neces-
sity; but it must needs be given in
way to induce feeling that it is
fully deserved to a greater extent
than inflicted. By this means,
and by letting the one to be pun
ished understand that you are not
prompted purely by revenge, it is
possible to make Of punishment an
agency by which to arouse what
ever inherent good is in the sub
ject.

an amazing surprise to the good
people who, naturally enough, con-

indictments read exactly alike, all
were convicted and sentenced to
the same term (six years. here.
Seven Of these men were able
to raise money enough to procure
an appeal; the indictment was
quashed and they were discharged.
The remaining five were in the
mean time sent on here to begin
sentence and they are here yet,
simply because they could not
raise sufficient money within the
time limited for making appeal.
Is this Justice? These men may
deserve their punishment, but that
does not make the otfense of their
more fortunate associates any the
lighter If an Indictment was un-
lawful in the case of man having
money enough to argue it's legality,
it certainly could not be lawful in
a case where the sole difference
was the lack Of money to make an
appeal.
