there is good reason, but always re-
wards meritorious convict with free
dom, if conditions warrant it.
There are few white convicts at
Parchman and one at Belmont, but
most of the white prisoners are con-
fined at Rankin farm, where they are
segregated from the blacks.
Governor Noel says the chapel is
soon to be erected at Rankin, which
will be sufficient to accommodate all
present and prospective prisoners at
that farm. He was present while
Miss Butt was teaching the Sunday
school class. He was impressed with
the interest shown by these men in
this service.
Governor Noel made the trip to
Rankin Sunday so as to be able to see
what the prisoners did on that day,
and because he could see the men
scattered during the week over the
5000 acres of land with less trouble
and know what their condition is. He
found them in the best of health and
spirits, no complaints to make about
their treatment and their quarters
well cared for.
There will be only a few additions
to the prison population this month,
and the pardons and discharges may
prevent an increase, but the courts
have been grinding away steadily and
July probably will show an increase
over this month.

few days before the enrolment show
ed $50 convicts. Some of these have
been discharged or pardoned while
others are at Oakley, where all the
sick are cared for.
Governor Noel has also granted a
number of pardons recently, but they
were in cases where the conduct of
the prisoners substituted what his
friends, in petitioning the Governor
for a pardon. But in the face of the
pardons and discharges, the popula-
ton of the state farms continues to
increase. In 1908 the total prison
population was little over 1900, but
on May 25, this year, the secretary's
report showed something over 1900,
which shows a heavy increase in two

Governor Noel is inclined to be len
lent and grant a pardon wherever
warranted by the facts, but he also
desires to have the law indicated,
and it is being rigidly enforced. That
is shown by the number of white men
convicted and sentenced to terms OIL
