Special to The NeaOs.
Jackson, Jan. Sit is the prevalent
opinion among legislators who reached
the city today that the lawmaking
body will give all aspirants for the
senatorship an opportunity to be
heard in person, and, at the proper
time, an invitation will be extended
to them to address the legislature.
This has been the custom in former
senatorial elections, especially when
the contest involved an unexpired
term. 1t will be Of interest of course,
despite the fact that all of the candi-
dates are Democrats, to hear their
views on public questions, government.

in their modest judgments, they
should be chosen for this position.

MODERN PRISON REFORM.

Following similar action in other
states the officials of the Massachu-
sets penitentiary have abolished the
lock step ON the part of convicts, as
has been done In nearly all progress
i've prisons in this country and Eu-
rope. In many penal institutions
the prisoners are no longer required
to have their hair closely cropped
or to wear black and white stripes
In their attire, but in some cases the
stripes are reserved for those con-
victs whose tempers are vicious and
persist In serious violating the prison
rules, thus making themselves a con-
slant source Of trouble for their keep
ers.
That considerable progress is be-
ing made in prison reform is eviden-
ced by the discarding as far as posi-
BILE the insignia of degradation such
as the lock step. the shaved head and
the prison stripes. 1t is held by those
interested In the movement, and we
think with good reasons, that to SUBJ
ject even felon to unnecessary
shame IL an unwise policy, because
Il tends to hamper rather than pro-
mote the work of reformation to
which much attention is now being
given by progressive prison officials
who recognize the fallacy of trying
to make convict better by further
Degrading HMM. o. States.
