in the bill providing for the location
of the refCrmatories, but that the bill
provided that there shall be two sepa-
rate schools. one for the whites and
one for the blacks, but with less than
$4,000 the reformatory would be a
failure. He congratulated the Demo-
cratic party that it had made the
adult criminals pay for the training
and correction of infant criminals. lie
said that no child should be commit
ted on q charge of larceny, arson or
other crimes, or even mlsdemeanor,
so as to have these opprobriums
hurled at them later in life. He OBJ
jected also to the separate docket,
and probation officer, and said the
clerk of the court is now designated
as custodian for criminal children. He
thought there were other provisions
in the bill which should be reframed,
and moved that the bill be re-referred
to the Committee on the Judiciary.
Mr.. Long, of Iredell, opposed the
motion of Mr.. Williams to re-refer
the bill
Mr.. Webb opposed the motion to re-
refer and suggested that Mr.. Williams
withdraw his motion. He saw no me-
cessity of having the bin to go before
the Judiciary committee.
Mr.. Williams amended his motion
by re-referring the bin to the Commit
tee on Penal Institutions instead Of the
Judiciary Committee.
Mr.. Webb arose to a point OF or
der during Mr.. Williams speech, and
the point of order was susta ined by
the chair, the president ruling that
MIR. Williams should confine his re-
marks TO the question of re-reference.
Mr.. Empfe said the re-reference of

appointed by the Governor TO serve
without COMPENSATION. These institu-
lions shall be established at different
points. 1t would not be well to have
the negro and white schools at the
same place. and ii would be we'll for
the colored reformatory to differ from
the white reformatory. 1t is specified
that the reformatories shall not be in
towns, removing them from the vice
of the cities, and it shall be nearly
self-supporting as possible, thus ii is
provided that it shall be esta Diished

in the industries. The institution is
not intended for orphans and incorri-
gible children, but Tor delinquents.
,Inere are not many cnildle en- IA the
penitentiary: the judges OF the State
are too wise and humane than TO
send them there. In 80 cases out of
every 100 they are turned out upon
the state criminals. The bill provides
that when a delinquent child is
brought before q mayor or magis-
trate the bill does not take away
their jurisdiction, but they may fine
him. suspend Judgment or turn him
loose. But if they say he snali De
i,,-7-iscne9 the state appeals for the
child to the Superior court. In the
Superior court, lne regular course is
pursued. and the child has every right.
But the bill requires that the children
shall be tried before the hardened
criminal and their names entered
upon a separate docket. They are then
removed from the idea of crinlinality.
The Judge may return the child to
his or her parents. or may impose q
fine or suspend Judgment, or may au-
thoriZe the probation officer to place
the child in some family where he
will remain till Il years of age, or
place him in some orphanage or in
stitution. or the judge may turn over
the child TO the State Board of Con-
troll, or may sentence him to 81 coun-
ty reformatory or penal institution.
These provisions are wise and flexible.
The probation officers duties shall be
to look after the child, try to encour-
age and uplift him. and cary out the
judgments of the court. The bill pro-
vides for parole system, which pow
er is vested in the Board of Control.
The pernicious practice of placing
child in a cell with hardened crimi-
nal is prohibited. The last provis-
ions of the bill appropriates $4,000,
a part of the State Prisons surplus,
to the esta blishment of the refOrna-
tory. The Board of Directors of the
prison have offered this sum. which
is not at all excessive, and it seems
right that the money earned by Grim

quent youth. This sum is at present

the bill would be waste Of valuable
time, and the Committee on Penal In
situations had thoroughly considered
it at three long meetings. The obJcc-
lions of Mr.. Williams could all be pro-
yided for in two amendments.
The motion of Mr.. Williams to re-
refer, was put and lost.
Mr.. Empie said the bill was not
the outcome of sentiment, but was to
provide for the States putting out its
hands for the correction of delinquent
youth and prevention of criminality.
so that whereas a criminal would
cost the State one or two thousand
dollars, If properly trained the same
man would give TO the State one or
two thousand dollars. severity Of pun
ishment does not suppress crime. A
youth is made in every way by law
irresponsible. but il he commits a lit
tie act OF criminality, he is placed on
the same plane as an adult criminal.
Half of the men in the jails and peni-
tentiaries of the world are at the age
of twenty-thrce, and it is established
that the average age of persons who
become criminals is between ten and
twenty years. This bill contains the
feature of the probation ~ refornatory
feature, almost q Juvenile court fea-
ture, and 1t is broad. comprehensive.
