Experience is a dear school-unIess
We are wise enough TO learn from the
experience of others.
Georgia is just now paying thou
sands of dollars for the knowledge
that she has been making a gTieVOus
mistake for these many years in her
manner of dealing with her cOnvicts-
She is torn and rent with the painful
labor of bringing forth a system en-
tirely foreign to what has become
settled custom, so firmly cemented
to the foundation work of her state
government that it requires a giant
upheaval to tear the structure from
its base and Yet leave the foundation
upon which a humane and at the
same time profitable institution may
be reared Her probing after the
hidden springs which hare carried
the present institution through the
years without the attendant jar of
inhumane treatment and colossal
fraud being apparent to the citizen

Why may we of Florida not profit by
the experience of our sister state and
plan for the rebuilding of our strUc

Must we wait until our system gives
forth such a fetid odor as Georgia's
