Would 1t not be better and cheaper in the long run to adopt the reformatory methods Tn force at Elmyra, N.

 It is the duty of the state to protect the criminal tendency of the convict afte" his release The wisest method Is to make him a better citizen If possible when in the custody of the laW-neyer to release him upon society until he has reformed until he is better fitted by training Tor good citizenship than he was when ar nested Give the ncorrigible criminal the indeterminate sentence Nothing tends more to bring about the constant hard ened criminals reformation than his knowledge of the fact that his sentence or stay in prison is self elf-determinate-tha 1t ends only with his reformation. Hold out before him the thought that the only pros pect of future release Is to form habits of industry to be obedient to orders, t9 become proficient in good conduct and to lead an exemplary prison life. Thus the better qualities. the nobler powers of his nature are called into activity and quickened into life. The daily exercise of such powers soon becomes habit of his life-a second nature. The prison su- perintendent should be an expert as to ths habits and conduct of convicts that giV" evidence of reformation. He should watch his daily life and be able to say when the prisoner should be trusted with parole, pending his indeterminate sentence, as the physician in charge of the insane pa tient watching his daily conduct, is abe to tell when it is prudent to release him upon society. The prisoner should be provided with employment upon release, with favorable environment, and should be looked after by a probation officer until his reclamation Is complete. This method is not novel; 1t has been tried with good results It appeals to the best elements of the human soul and evokes the finest qualities in character building. Why not strive for the shadow of that which is best rather than cling to the substance of that which is bad
