Trouble has been stirred up in
the management of the Ohio peni-
tcntiary over the manner of the
release of Harry Reynolds, who
was sent to the institution from
Cleveland for bigamy. 1t is claimed
that the hearing which was given
Reynolds was green room ses-
sion and that letters and evidence
on file contradicts every statement
made by the prison board. If these
releases are regular, there is no
reason for holding a green room
session. The courts which hear
both sides of the case in the trial
are surely better qualified to say
whether a punishment being meted
out is just or unjust, than the
prison board which generally hears
only those things which are most
favorable to the prisoner. Surely
| there is no more excuse for a
green room session of the prison
board than there is for star cham
Der session of the city council.
