may also add that the work IL

that the above building Is very

there would be no danger Of Any-
thing giving away. / feel SUE In

NOT SATISFACTORY.
The State Parole System Not
Realizing The Anticipation
..%'. Ofits Advocates.

+ The following ls,an extract from
the report of the stare board Of cor
rections and charities, rela ting to the
parole system VI the state:
The workings Ot the state reforma-
tory IN the matter Of paroles have
not teen entirely satisfactory. Dur
ing the seven years since the tnstitu-
ton was opened 4S4 inmates have
been par lied. OF these, %, or 10 per
cent, violated their first parole. OF
these 81. 81 were brought back to-
the rriormntOry. Of whom % were
pnrul"d the second time, OF whom 3
broke their parole. on these >. q
were brought back to the tnstttu-
ton. of whom 9. were parOled the
second time, aud one of these again
violated his parole. There are now
at large IS men who have broken
their parole, for whom a reward IL
offered. There are still ON parole AZ
mer, nome Of whom will doubtless
break their parole. \" that 1t may he
assumed that out Of the men parOled
from the state reiormntory ut least
~ per cent violate their parole. A
considerable number of men who
complied with the conditions "f
thei, parole during its continuance
are known to have violated 1T since
that time; but, on the other hand,
men may Violate the letter OF their
parole by leaving their place Of en-
ploy ment or going beyond the
boundaries of the state who after
ward lead orderly lives.
The results of the parole system at
the state priIoh have been more
sa tisfactory.: Out III $50 men paroled
during the pnst four years, only %
have violated the conditions Of their
parole, or about II per cent; and III
these 20 men. only 3 are at large. the
remainder having been returned to
the prison to serve out their sen.
fences.
Three facts should BE- kept In mind
In order not to do injustice to the
state ret..rmatory: First. the fact
that all men sentenced to the reform
tory are sentenced with the .expec.
tntion that they will he parolrt
sooner or later. and IN practice
nearly ali are, ~ parnled; while a,
the state prison the privilege IN ex'
tended only to selected portion Vi
the men who are deemed especially
fit for the privilege. Second, thu
number Nf men a'pnl oiled from thu
prison has been much less than from
the ref"rmatory. The number 81
men paroled from the reforrDatOry
since it, foundation has been 4S4
while the number from the state
prison has only been 1870. Third, the
fact that the inmntes Of the state
reformatory arc Il younger class OF
men who have less realization of the
consequences VI violating their
parole. At the same time the fact
remains that the results OF the work
OF the state refOrmatOry have not
entirely realized the oDticipatlons "i
the friends of the Institution.
The Minnesota prison agent acts
fOl the state prison and the state
reformat0ry jointly, hut the work
has now become too extensive to be
carried on successfully by one man.
We recommend, therefore, the em-
ployment OF an additional agent for
the state reiOrlnatOry. We are
convinced that this agency IL one of
the most economical and useful forms
of work which can lie carried on by
the state.
