which means the past record of defen-
dants would be Immediately available.
Such plan would stimulate defen-
dants to honesty and would help the
court to wiser decisions.
G. Elevate the police court. This
court is not given it's due measure Of
respect, nor is the Importance of its
work appreciated. The office of police
justice in the minds of many is of un-
certain dignity. He is paid less and is
not expected to equal in ability the
other judges of his community. His
court room is often a poorly furnished,
huddled, cheap affair, where many
thousand defendants and their friends,
including a goodly number of foreign
ers, gain their first knowledge of
American justice. These conditions
should be changed for If crime is TO
decrease the problem must be solved
chiefly by this institution. 1t should
be housed in dignified building, and
at least i'm larger cities, the salary Of
the judge should be made equal to that
paid in other criminal courts, and the
attitude of the bar and of the public
should be altered to respect and APP
probation.
Jail Imprisonment a Failure.
| According to the opinions of prose-
cutting attorneys and circuit judges,
prisoners are not made better by Jail
Imprisonment, and in many instances
| it's results are positively harmful. Ere
quently, there is inadequate provision
for light and air and no arrangement
/ for exercise i'm the open. Prisoners are
unclassihed and the young and mex
perienced and unfortunate are COM
PEELED to associate with the depraved
and criminal. In addition, there are
the corrupting influence of bad poll
tics. the fee system and worse than all
else-idleness.
The commission finds that the fee
system is greatly abused in many
places. Some justices and police Off
GERS make il a business to hunt vi
all the DRINKS and Migrants they car
find, and a majority of officers are i'm
clined to stretch matters for theii
own benefit
To lessen Jail Imprisonment and tC
correct some of the evils thereof, thu
following suggestions are made:
Abolish the fee system and pay
sheriffs a fixed sum for the bord o
prisoners. and for lodging homeless
men.
Establish the probation system fo
minor offenders. according to the plai
| given in this report.
Provide for one or more distric
prisons, especially of the farm colon!
| type.
. In counties where there is a large
I town, have complaints in crimina
cases made before the police court
e rather than before a township justic
= of the peace.
Strengthen the present method o
4 the supervision OF jails by the Stat
e Board of Charities and Corrections i
a such way that abuses, when discov
Y cred. can be promptly abolished.

Elk up the Levee.

To the Editor of the Gate City:
Advertise the city by removing
all distractions on the levee, and
clean it up, it's full length. Have all
buildings allowed to remain in the in
terest of commerce painted and kept
clean. Build a concrete wall two feet
thick from the abutment of the bridge
to the south line of Exchange street
about 1900 feet properly reinforced
and fill in behind the wall for riv.
err front.
This improvement will cost about
$4,000 and will be of invaluable
benefit in advertising the people and
city to the thousands of strangers
who pass through the city on trains
and who come to visit the city. Do
this now in the year 1911.
