HIT CONTRACT LABOR
Prison Heads Think COnvlCtS
Should Work for State.
Some Of Subjects Should BE Trained,
Others Used for Gain, 10 Idea A.
Vaneed In Reports Given at
Jallers' Congress.

Baltimore.-The contract system OF
prison labor was condemned In the
report OF the committee on prison Ia
Dor presented at the congress Of the
American Prison association In annual
session here The committee. how
ever, recommended the system when
no other means OF employment could
be provided. believing It preferable to
idleness.
The employment Of prisoners. the
report maintained, should be directed
entirely by the state and the products
of this labor should be disposed OF by
the state.
The first consideration OF every or
ganization. the report continued
should be the training OF the prisoner.
and. after that, financial results. EV-
cry prison should be SO classified that
a certain group Of men should at all
times be provided with work on farms'
roads and other outside work. and
larger portion OF each prison should
be employed on the state account sys-
tenn.
The committee believed 1t possible
for every state having q population OF
two million inhabitants or more TO EN-
ploy all its convict population In the
manufacture OF articles for the use OF
state and its political divisions.
James H. Leonard. superintendent
Of the Ohio state reformatory ~

the association, and DR.. D. G. Peyton'

PitifuI Condition Of Native Indians
Described in Letter.
Lured by Promises Of High Wages
Into a ServItude From Which
Only Escape ls Starva-
'tion.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. concerning
the methods OF rubber gathering in
Peru are made in a remarkable letter
in the Times from F. H. Fawcett. 1t
throws q searching light on the situa'
ton, showing clearly the huge profits
made by the exploiters and their
hideous methods of retaining the ma
tives In their service.
Here is o summary OF how the ex'
ploring company which has discovered
rubber trees performs its business on
returning to civilization:
Agents, half.caste men of straw,
with a knowledge Of Quichua, were con-
tracted as they still are every year. to
secure labor. They are advanced
money. They visit Indians on the
Altiplanicle, tempt them with the ad'
vances Of sums unheard Of nv the
poor Indian, highly color the life and
profits, make them drunk. perhaps,
anyway finally obtain a paper signed,
or alleged to have been signed. pledg-
ing their miserable possession Of a
hut, a potato patch and a llama
against q contract to gather so many
quintals Of rubber "a quintal being 100
pounds).
"The Indian, on recovery from his
debauch. IL forcibly dragged away
proceedings at which the law winks)
to the rubber estates.
He has to work under half-caste task
masters, often multi-muderers, AID
is required to transport his own food
and rubber (weighing 100 pounds)
over trails no reader would care to
traverse free from q load"
Men. women and children are
bought and sold for personal service.
Parents sell daughters; the brutal
appreciation of life is such that there
Is no security In the Peruvian forests
for the possession Of children.
It is a mistake. he points out, to
suppose that 1t Is only q degenerate
class Of Peruvian who IL guilty Of
abuses. They are perpetuated BY
foreigners Of various nationalities.
Escape for an employee Is very DIFF
ficult. from many places impossible"
Fawcett says They do. however.
get away sometimes.
In escaping he Rbandons everything
but iife. He can stay and probably
die, knowing he can nsver be out Of
debt
For all abuses the owners are re-
sponsible, whether they realize how
their profits are gained or not The
agent on the spot Is not always to
blame. His livelihood 10 bound up In
the business.

Perils Of overdeIicaey.

A bridegroom gave his best man an
envelope.
Hand It to the parson after the
ceremony" he said, but don't do It
ostentatiously."
The best man followed instructions,
but it seems that he performed his
task too covertly, for the father Of
the bridegroom. after the pair had
departed, believed that an omission
had occurred and quietly pressed a
banknote into the minister's hand.
But he also was too secretive about It,
and before the party broke up the
brides brother felt called upon to
draw the minister aside and thrust .
$10-bill upon him.
