Aiken on Tariff.

We have copied this week Congress
man Aiken's recent speech on unpend-
ing tariff legislation.
MI. Aiken seems to be pretty good
authority on the tariff question. His
speech something over a year ago was
one of five speeches on this subject
copied in the Democratic Presidential
Campaign Book. While Mr.. Aiken
makes little effort at. oratory, his
speeches give you something to think
about.

PAROLE OF LIFE PRISONERS.
Discussed in a Report to the American
Prison Congress.

Seattle, Wash, Aug. lift a life
prisoner has worn the band of bond
age long enough to satisfy the reason
able demands of justice and to exhaust
the deterrent effects of punishment.
and if he is safe to be at large, he
can be put to better use in the world
than to be kept within grim walls
until the undertaken is called to rattle
his bones over the stones said
Thomas Dudley Wells, of Hartford.
Conn, chairman of the committee on
parole of life prisoners, in a report to
the convention of the American Prison
association today.
1.-THE wisdom of extending the pa
role system to life convicts who have
been convicted of no previous crime
involving moral turpitude- and whose
record behind locks and bars has been
clean and not tainted. is predicated on
the fact that man who is responsive
to decent impulses is worth more to
the state and to himself out of prison
than in prison." continued Mr.. Wells's
report.
Mr.. Wells declared that of the life
prisoners who are released by pardon
or parole, few re-engage in crime.
Criminals by accident and circum-
stance rather than by design. they are
a smaller social menace than the pro-
fessional offenders who regard the
world as a pocket to be picked or a
safe to be cracked, said he.
