Observation-Disclosures
Graded Prison system.

In addition to abolishing the clock
STEP at the Kansas prison, Warden
Jewett has put in force the graded
prison system. The first grade, blue
suited prisoners, will have the best
place in the dining room and will be
quartered in the new modern cell
house erected six years ago. The sec
ond grade, gray-suited prisoners, will
have the second or intermediate place,
while the bad prisoners, in striped
suits, most of whom carry n ball and
chain, will have the rear seats in the
dining room and be kept in the cell
house in the south wing. An effort
will be made to keep the best pris-
oners by themselves as much as pos
sible and the third grade prisoners
away from the others. A new prison
er will be placed in the intermediate
grade at first, and if he proves himself
worthy will be allowed to attend
night school, read books and will be
treated with as much consideration
as possible.

Formerly from the United States.

Roshern, July sth, 1900.
Frank Pedley, Esq,
Superintendent of immigration
Strive the undersigned settlers in
atchewan, Township 43, Range 6,
beg to submit the following letter. We
came from Springfield, Bonhomme
County, s. Dakota, in the spring of 1899
and settled where we now reside. We
had considerable crop last year we
put in on breaking, and it was very
good, and this year 1900 our crop Is
excellent. Our wheat win yield about
twenty bushels to the acre, the oats
and barley are also very good, and
our potatoes and root crop all that
could be desired. We consider this q
fine country, and are glad we came, as
our prospects could not be better. A
poor man will get start in this coun'
try much quicker than in Dakota.
