ADAMS TALKS OF CONVICT SYSTEM.

Hon. Cliff A. Adams, State in
spector OF convict camps. was in
the city yesterday en- route TO
Fort Bend county to inspect some
of the camps in that county. "Do
you know" remarked Mr.. Adams
10 a Post representative during a
conversation, that there has been
a great change in the management
Of the convicts within the past
few years? Corporal punishment
is fast becoming obsolete. A great
many people-in fact the majority
Of people-imagine when anything
goes wrong in the camps that the
guards have full sway and can sail
in and whip the convicts. This is
a mistaken idea. The sergeant
who has charge Of the camp can
not whip a convict without first
bringing the matter up and secur.
ing a permit from the inspector.
! have more than 1900 convicts
under my supervision and the per-
mits issue allowing the whip to
be used will not average twenty a
month. There are times when it
becomes necessary to whip some OF
the men, but it is never resorted TO
only in extreme occasions. The
men are treated well in every way.
There are no tasks on the farms,
and the men work an average OF
nine to eleven hours a day, the
length of time depending on the
season. They are expected TO put
in fair days work, and if they
are sick they are we'll taken care

and are not allowed to eat their
noon meal ont in the sun. Sheds
have been provided for this pur.
pose. The practice OF allowing
the convicts some Of their time for
good behavior is a great incen-
tive.
THE men fight among themsel-

more trouble because of this than
from all other sources combined.
