PAROLES USUALLY
PAY DIVIDENDS
PERCENTAGE OF PRISONERS
WHO MAKE GOOD Is LARGE,
SAYS JUDGE CONNOLLY.

Fred Postal, president of the Michi-
who was 70 have spoken at the Whole
salers' day luncheon in the
Pontchartrain, Wednesday, on the
growth Of the state fair, was called to
New York on account of the serious Ill
ness OF his wife. In his absence,
Judge VIM r. Connolly addressed the
Wholesalers on the work Of the re-
corder's court.
He devoted most of his attention to
the paroling of prisoners, the modern
conception of a courts function now
being to save rather than TO sentence.
Most OF the prisoners In that court are
boys and young men still in the forma-
tive stage. He gave hereditary, en-
vironment, lack of education, broken
homes, bad companionship leading to
the forming OF the drink habit, as the
causes OF the downfall OF most young
men.
Each case must be considered sepa-
rately," said the Judge. "On the one
hand we have the community demand
ing protection and on the other the de-
PENDANT, his future yelled to all eyes
but possessing some potentially for
good. When first went on the bench,
Judge Carpenter told me that every
1ladee makes some mistake, but to err
on the side of mercy. .
when a prisoner is paroled It Is q
gamble against many conditions: a
gamble against his passions and weak
nesses his ignorance, associations ami
habits. There are some failures, but
most cases pay dividends. Out Of
cases last year In which sentence was
deferred to give the prisoner another
chance. only seven fell.
1T is necessary for these men and
BOYS to find work but. In hard times.
when work is difficult to get for hon
est men II is ten-fold harder to get II
for paroled men,
Judge Connolly took a slam at some
members of the Committee OF 100 and
others who had exaggerated the NUM-
Der of saloon cases awaiting trial IN
his court saying that the figures they
gave were 10 times the real number.

Mr.. Cone was so perturbed over the
incident that, although Justice Jeff

rant against Bradley, he left the court
without swearing to the complaint and
the warrant, accordingly, Is still un
issued.
The row started over Justice Jeff
ries' refusal 10 issue a new warrant
against Fisher without first investigat
ing the complaint himself. The jus
tice was ripe for scrap. as Mr.. Cone
had visited him on a similar mission
Tuesday, and Jeffries took exception
to some of the -lattef's caustic obser

Beck. a neighbor. Mr.. Beck told the
justice that while he had seen men
coming out of the side door of the
building occupied by Fisher at a time
when the saloon was supposed TO be
closed, he was unable to say whether
the door connected with the saloon or
with the upper floor of the building.
Justice Jeffries said he would hold
the matter open until he could go up
and take a look at the place for him
self.
When will that be?" Cone inquired,
to which, according to the latter, JUS
tice Jeffries replied:

The justice, however, insists that
he said he would go at the first oppor-
tunity, assuring Mr.. Cone that he is a
man of his word
Does that mean now or six months

fireworks were on.
His ire aroused, Justice Jeffries re-
called the incident OF Tuesday:
