MICHIGAN MORE HUMANE.
Convict Life at Walla WalIa, WASH,
Is No Joke.

Marquette-That the inmates Of the
Michigan prisons receive princely
treatment In comparison with that
given the convicts confined In the
penitentiary at Walla walla. Wash.
and other persons of the west, was the
assertion Of Deputy Warden 7. Il. Cat
Tin, of the Marquette prison. ycster-
day Mr.. Catlin arrived here Mon
day with Harvey Westhoff. who was
released from the Marquette prison OH
parole six years ago and who had not
been heard from until he was located
In the Walk Wafla penitentiary. where
be was known az Cook. He will serve
out the remainder of his sentence here.
The Walla Walla prison was but &c
Gently finished and the aim of its OFF,
cials seems 10 be TO make II strictly
penal. rather than rcformatory insti-
dred inmates are employed in the jute
mill which has a capacity of 10000
bags a day. but which now is output
ting 5000. The men work ten hours a
day. from to IL in the morning and
from / to 6 o'clock in the afternoon.
A high wall surrounds the yard in
which the jute mill is situated. Guards
armed with rifles, are on sentry duty
on a walk three feet below the top on
the outside of the wall. This walk Is
enclosed with latticed iron work
The one thing that makes the In
mates feel their position more than
anything else is Mr.. Catlin said. the
fact that they receive no overtime and
are not allowed to do any work that
will bring them any remuneration, ex-
cept TO make little souvenirs in their
cells. In the Marquette prison. the
inmates earn about 5000 each month
on overtime. and every man has a
chance to lay aside a little sum to-
ward the timc when he will be given
his sroedom. The Walla Walla con-
yicts have nothing of that sort to look
forward to.
The clothes that are worn by the in
mates are of the coarsest. A hickory
shirt blue denim oVeralls and shoes
constitute the wardrobe OF each in
mate. The prison authorities do not
even furnish the men with underwear
One of the hardships on the mon is
the fact that they are not furnished to-
baccc. In the Michigan prisons tobac-
co is distributed every week. Further
more. the Walla Walla convicts must
drink their tea and coffee without milk
or sugar, and they are not furnished
sugar at any meal.
The men are marched to work under
an armed guard in the morning and
when they return they are locked In
their coils for the night. The only cx-
ercise they get is little parade in the
prison yard SUNDAY morning. The pris-
on authorities are however, building
chapel, i'm which stage Will ne erect
ed. providing an opportunity for en-
tertainments.
This is In marked contrast To the
privileges given the convicts at the
Marquette prison. where they have the
yard each Sunday morning. and on
pleasant days during the summer Tor
