In his report to Governor Wilson
on the state penitentiaries Inspector
Thatcher says:
The chief causes for the heavy
amount OF punishment at the Frank
fort penitentiary have been, first, the
Generalization that usually attends
a change of wardens or of prison
management; second, the inexperi-
ence of new wardens, officers and
guards in dealing with prisoners;
third, the refractory attitude assum-
ed by prisoners when new men are
introduced into prison control;
fourth, the contract labor system;
fifth, the further and not unimpor-
tant fact that the Frankfort peni-
tentiary, being at the state capital,
in the very highway of public scru-
tiny and discussion, has ever been
and will ever be the storm center
wherein discussion and scandals
have sprung up. and will spring up
on the slightest provocation. sueh
agitation having the inevitable ten
dency toward the impairment o.
prison discipline.
Instruments of Punishment.
The whipping straps used undel
the various wardens, except. per
haps. Chinn, at the Frankfort peni
tentiary have been sufficient!
