NEW PRINCIPLE OF PUNISHMENT.
Reformation Idea Endorsed by Prison
Congress-After Fight of Thirty
Years.

Washington, October 6.-After op-
posing for thirty years the efforts of
American criminologists to induce the
International Prison congress to ir-
dorse the principle Of tho indetermiu-
ate sentence, which underlies the -e-
formatory system, the European mem-
bers of the congress today yielded and
resolutions advocating this system
were adopted.
The resolutions declared that tbs
indeterminate sentence should be ap-
piled to the mentally and morally de-
fective, and that it should also be ap-
piled "as an important part of the re-
formatory system, to criminals, partly
young DELEGATES, who require refor-
nation and whose offences are dua
mainly to circumstances of an indivl-
dual character.% The introduction of
the system, it was provided, should be
provided on the following conditions:
Individual Treatment.
THAT prevailing notions of guilt and
punishment are incompatible with the
principle of the indeterminate SEN
tence; that an individual treatment of
the offender be assured; that the pris-
on board be so constituted as to ex-
clude all outside influences and to
consist of a commission made up Of
at least one representative of the mag
istracy, at least one representative of
the prison administration and at least
one representative of medical
science
It was declared to be advisable to
fix the maximum duration of the SEN
tence only during such period as it
might be necessary because of the
novelty of the institution and lack of
experience with it.
Foreign Delegates Won Over.
The foreign delegates are said to
have been Won over to the cause Of the
indeterminate sentence by observing
it's successful application during their
ten days tour of the country prior to
the meeting of the congress. Other
important recommendations are:
The extension of probation, with
some central authority in each coun-
try to exercise general supervision
over probation work.
The consideration of participation
in criminal acts or agreements as an
aggravating circumstance and the aug
mentation of the power of the courts
to increase the penalty for such Of
fences.
Penal procedure for young delln-
Quents different from that applied to
adults, with especial care for the
child's welfare, and with a view to
keeping the child as far removed al
possible from the atmosphere of
court or prison.

Report of Investigating Committee
Charges "Careless Way of Do
ing Business"

Saluda, October 6.-The grand jury
made its final presentment and report
yesterday afternoon and was dis
charged from further attendance upon
the court. In the report of the spe-
cial committee, which is indorsed by
the body as a whole, complaint is
made of the condition of the tax exc
cution hooks in the sheriff's office for
the last two years. It is charged that
his books are in an unsatisfactory
COZ: dition; that ''the auditor or treas
urer failed to show, when making up
this book, on the executions whether
thoy were issued against real or per-
scnal property and that by reason

It is further stated that "a number
Of executions have been returned by
the sheriff as partise holding receipts.
some of these are correct amounting
TO s43.16 for 1908; the treasurer has
been given credit twice for this
amount, first in collecting the money
and second a 'nulla bona.' The re-
port says that this amount has been
refunded by the treasurer, and pro-
ceeds: eve believe from this inditeeT-
ent way of handling these executions
the county has sustained other and
greater loses. Further examinations
haze satisfied US that for number of
years the treasurers have been re-
ceiving double credits on some of the
executions"
Claims Not Itemized.
AS to the supervisors office the re-
port says: eve find a few claims that
have been entered and paid and not
approved by the board. We fud a
number of claims made out against
the county by different merchants
that we're approved, and paid and the
accounts were not itemized. We are,
therefore, unable to say whether the
prices paid for gods were reasonable
We find in other claims the prices
paid we're more than the goods could
have been bought for at other places" ;"
Rewards Source of Loss.
Complaint is also made. that the
county has been paying too much 70
persons who claim to have made ef-

forts to capture escaped convicts or
parties for whom warrants have been
issued. It is charged that the county
has not only offered rewards for the
capture of escaped convicts, but has
likewise paid extravagant expenses to
parties claiming to have made efforts
to capture such conVicts.
County's Indebtedness.
As to the Indebtedness of the county
and it's present financial condition tie
report says: From the best informa-
ton obtainable from the books of the

The Reign of TechnicaIity.

Thanks to the famous devotion Of
Missouri's supreme court to techni-
calities, another of the municipal
graft cases in ST Louis has ended in
a final acquittal
Fred Warner, formerly a member
of the house of delegates, was charged
with receiving a bride. On his first
trial he was convicted. and sentenced
to serve a term of two years in the
penitentiary. His case was appealed
to the supreme court, and the con-
viction was set aside because the in
dictment was defective" The fatal
defect was the omission of the word
"the" from the phrase, State of Mis-
souri, The learned court reasoned
that the words state of Missouri"
did not sufficiently describe the COM
monwealth. For all the great court
knew to the contrary, we suppose,

WOMAN THE FIRST SLAVE.

A special piquancy is lent to the
spectacle of the lady as mistress of
the slaves by a knowledge of her his
tory, review of which might be fifty
entitled up from Slavery" Herr Be
bel in his striking way declares that
woman was the first slave-"she was
slave before the slave existed" The
gradual promotion of an occasional
slave to comparative idleness began to
make a lady of her. When she was
given control over other slaves, and
when she was considered to be her
masters wife in some special sense
which differentiated her from the 9TH
er women who bore him children, the
process was complete. Her idleness
consisted in release from useful man
ual labor, and was an evidence of her
husbands wealth. AS such it was
valuable to him, and she preserved
it at his command. Not only was she
excused from labor-she was forbid

there are many places and organiza-
tions known as state of Missouri"
and the identity of the aggrieved sub
division of the Union could not be
fixed unless the precious word "the"
was used in describing it.
So the case went back to the lower
court, for a new trial On that trial,
as was to have been expected, it was
not possible to get all the witnesses
who had testified at the first trial,
and some of those who did testify
a second time were not so certain in
their memories as on the former trial.
and the jury disagreed. on the third
trial, concluded on Wednesday of this
week, Warner was acquitted.
They do have to be shown" in
Missouri, to a certainty. But mean
while, the supreme, court of that great
state, the supreme court of the state
of California, and the courts of final
resort in several other states, are do
ing a lasting and unfortunate. work
in building up in the public mind a
feeling that technicallty, and not sub
stantial justice, is what wins in the
courts, and that the accused man who
has money enough or friends enough
to enable him to exhaust all the re-
sources of technicality is in no great
danger.
Arizona, most fortunately, has a
fine reputation in this regard. Our
courts have made the territory dis
tinguished for the unerring manner in
which they hit the bulls eye of jus
tice, to the disregard of unimportant
technicalities, and one of the impor-
tant tasks of the constitutional con-
vention should be to see to it that
this policy is fixed in the constitu-
ton.
In the judgment of two of the great
ect jurists of our time-the late Jus
tice Brewer of the supreme court of
the United States, and President Taft
one of the reforms most needed to-
day is such a change in our system
of Jurisprudence as VIII assure the
speedy determination of criminal
cases. They have pointed out that
shrewd lawyers, devoted to the crimi-
nal practice, and aided by technical
judges who worship case law have
built up such a bulwark of prece-
dents-cases wherein accused crimi-
nails escaped through the Intervention
of technicalities-that it has become
exceedingly difficult to convict and
punish the criminal of large resources.
This condition of affairs has added
enormously to the nervous strain to
which a conscientious trial judge is
necessarily subjected. In many of the
states the trial judge has to undergo
a strain that is indescribable Con-
fronted by defending counsel who are
constantly on the alert to entrap him
into a ruling that will be held as
error by the appellate court, and by
the certainty that if he does commit
reversing error" the case after long
delay will come back to him for an
other trial, his lot is far from a happy
one. Worst of all. however, this sys-
TEN defeats justice and lessons popu-
lar confidence in the courts.
In the writings of Mr.. Taft and
Justice Brewer on this subject the
constitutional conventions committee
on the judiciary can find many prac-
teal suggestions
