Bostonian Would Tum
Prisons Into Colleges
?, ByW. l. MOORE, Boston. Mas.

lar ideas about prisons He that prisons cruel absurd anquaed
vndictve stupid and suicidal
~ His idea to turn each prison the country college, nae it,
model in part outside colleges give diploma for good work. but
blend practical productive labor and industry with the studies SAYS
the prisoners what society ought have given them before they
committed crimes.
He thinks that these prison colleges would models for
literary colleges whose crucial bunder is that they not require
student rich and poor to do productive work earning
his living throughout the part of his education
This accomplished the prisons would be great agency for the
up Of those who most need it. Every inmate would be taught skilled
craft that he would be able support himself after prison graduation
With such system prison gates bars and walls except for very few

NO PUZZLE FOR HER
BY ALLIE YOUNGER.

The sharp-nosed man looked dubi-
ously after the retreating figure Of the
stenographer.
I'm in q quandary what to do with
that GIRL" he said. II don't know
whether to fire her or raise her sal
ary. l don't know what to make Of
her. She is the quintessence Of either
innocence or deceit, l can't figure out
which. Any way, she's got me into
pretty pickle.
About two months ago some mis-
guided member of a certain benevolent
society sent me two tickets for a char.
ity ball. ! was surprised to get those
tickets. for supposed everybody who
knew me knew my sentiments in re-
gard to charity.
Il don't believe in It don't be-
lieve in giving things away. l have to
work for every cent l have and ex.
pect other people to do the same
thing. To my mind these folks that
dance for charity and sing for charity
and cut all sorts of didoes for benev-
olent purposes are only degrading the
masses they are supposed to benefit.
l had expressed this opinion 80 often
that ! was amazed that anybody
should ask me to countenance a
benevolent scheme by buying tickets
for a ball. Naturally. hastened to
send the tickets back. put them into
an envelope and handed them to the
stenographer.
"'Here. Miss Drew I said. you,
know what to do with these

1T struck me then that there was
no occasion for her to thank me for
requesting her to perform her regular
routine Of duties, but didn't give the
matter a second thought until three
weeks later. when representative Of
the benevolent society called to col
lect SO for the ball tickets.
"'But I didn't use the tickets

anything about returning them. You

sorry that I haven't had the courage
either to discharge her or deduct the
money from her salary. / can't make
up my mind to this day whether she
really thought I meant to make her a

Legislator.

After a successful tour of the south

State Senator Everett Colby and his
flying squadron left for Atlantic

FIELDER CANDIDACY
CALLED UNLAWFUL
William Sackett Seeks Right TO
Test Acting Governors
Right to Run.

William E. Sackett today requested
Edmund Wilson, the attorney-gen-
eral, for permission TO bring quo war
ranto proceedings to test the right of
Acting Governor Fielder to run as a
candidate for governor.
Mr.. Sackett's letter was as follows:
Il hereby ask the permission of the
attorney general of New Jersey to
bring proceedings in quo warranto
with a view to testing the right of
the secretary of the State of New
Jersey to certify the name of James
F. Fielder to the county clerks of the
State as that of a lawful nominee
for the office of Governor of New
Jersey.
II filed with the secretary of state
of New Jersey on Monday, Septem-
Der 49, a protest against such GER
tifcation or the taking of other off,
eial action by him designed to secure
the printing of Mr.. Fielder's name on
the official ballot to be used at the
coming general election. The ground
of the protest was that the Constitu-
ton of New Jersey forbids one ex-
ercising the prerogatives of a COVER
nor to serve as governor during the
term Immediately following; that Mr.
Fielder, being then in the exercise of
such prerogative. had no more right
to use the States primary processes
to be made a candidate than he
would have had to use the States
election machinery to secure his cleo
ton; that his candidacy for nominal
ton being thus unlawful, his nomina-
ton was as If not made, and that
consequently the secretary of state
of New Jersey has no right to certify
his name to the county clerks as that
of a lawfully nominated candidate
for the office.
I'm his response to the protest the
Secretary of State wrote under date
of September 30, as follows:
Regarding the certif1cation of
this name to the county clerks, l can
see no reason why this office, after
the completion of the canvas, should
not proceed with such certification in
accordance with the statute
II am advised that these words,
over the official signature of the Sec
rotary of State, constitute such a
conclusion of law on his part as to
lay grounds for proceedings designed
to learn what warrant of law he has
for making it the basis of a eerti-
flcation and l ask the attorney-gen-
erals permission to institute them.
THE preservation of the integrity
of the constitution of New Jersey
demands the defeat of fragrant at
tempt to violate that most important
of its provisions which safeguards
the State and her people against the
lawless seizure of her highest func-
tions by an over-a ambitious executive.
This application for your consent
is made at an early stage of the cleo
ton procedure for the reason that
legal steps taken later will throw
the States election machinery into
hopeless confusion. That reason
suggests, too, that an early indica-
ton of your pleasure in the premises
will contribute to the orderly progress
of the preparations for the balloting."

Abandoned Automobile
May Throw Light Upon
Murder of Girl Artist

CHICAGO, Oct. with the finding
of an abandoned automobile in Palos
Park the police today redoubled their
energies in the search for the mystic
rious Wilson" whose promise of a
position drew Miss Ida G. Leegson, an
art student, to the prairie near Clear
ing where she was garroted early
Sunday, after a struggle.
The automobile was stolen before
3 o'clock Saturday afternoon from
Jackson Park 1t was shortly before
the residence where Miss Leegson
roomed. The call was in response to
an advertisement for work, which
read:
Practical Nurse-Maternity cases
preferred"
Miss Leegson was told to take a
street car to Seventy-first street and
Western avenue and to walk west
The street address she was given does
not exist. The police have ascertained
that Miss Leegson was met by man
in a black automobile when she
alighted from the Western avenue car
The tonneau of the automobile recov-
cred in Palos Park, west of the scene
of the murder, indicated there had
been a violent struggle.
Coroner's Physician Jacob Springer
Is of the opinion that Miss Leegson
was tortured by the man from s
o'clock Saturday night until or
o'clock Sunday morning. He asserted
the woman had not been dead more
than four or five hours when the body
was found Sunday forenoon.
The police believe they are con-
fronted with the problem of solving a
mystery where the victim may not
have known the person who plotted
her death.
A study of Miss Leegson's career
indicates there was not q hint of i'm
propriety and she seemed devoted to
art.
