New Law Furnishes Serious
Problem In Glue Grass State.
ALL MUST SECURE WORK.
lndeterm nate Sentence Measure Opens
Prison Doors to Men Guilty Of All
Kinds of Crmes-F armers Anxious
to Employ Prisoners, as There Exists
Scarcity of Labor.

Hopkinsville. Ky.-Kentucky is fac
ing the problem of caring for 422 con-
victS to be liberated at approximately
the same time and for whom no pro
vision has been made. The prospect
Is viewed with varying sensations in
different parts of the state. In cities
md towns there is alarm. but on the
farms ana plantations. where help Is
scarce. no fears are felt. and in fact
.he liberated criminals will be made
welcome for their labor.
This condition is brought about by
the new inleterminate sentence law
which is now operative in Kentucky
and which does away with the old
nw by which the jury trying case
fixed the term Of years for which Il
person should he confined. in the same
verdict declaring him guilty. AS il Is
now. the jury merely passes upon a
prisoners guilt or innocence. and if he
s found guilty his.prison term is auto
matically fixed by the law covering
he offense with which he is charged
These sentences, Of course. range from
I specified minimum number of years

rule heretofore for the prison board.

GOVERNOR M'cREARY OF KENTUCKY.
to allow the prisoners their freedom
largely upon the character Of their
crimes and their prison conduct.
But In the John De Moss case. re-
Gently decided by the court Of ap-
peals. 1t Is held that If prisoner has
completed his minimum sentence and
shows clear record in the prison he
must receive parole then. Another
feature is that he must be able to
show that he has some legitimate &C.
cupation waiting for him when he is
set at liberty again. This parole Of
course does not free the prisoner abso-
lutely. a string is held on him. and
should he ever transgress again he
may be brought back and made to
complete his original sentence.
! Naturally, the cOnvicts are delighted.
OF the 400 convicts to get their liberty
232 will go from the penitentiary at
Frankfort and 100 from the Eddyville
prison.
| One of the requirements with which
q prisoner must conform before he can
be paroled. even under the new order.
that he must have Il job awaiting
him. has caused the 400 prisoners
who are to be released to cast about
for landing place. Among them are
individuals of all classes, some very
expert in certain lines. but the most of
them are ordinary labOrers. this being
especially true of the negroes, who are
In the majority. Right here Is where
the release of the prisoners promises to
be good thing for the state at large.
For several years the question Of farm
labor has grown to be more and more a
matter Of serious nature. The negroes
prefer to live i'm the towns or to work
on the public works. where they can be
, together in crowds. Often the farmers
are sorey tried in their efforts to get
labor ut rush seasons and are forced to
pay eXorbitant prices.
! But the ordinary laborers among the
convicts find the farms their best
chance for getting the coveted job. The
farmers are willing to take the risk. If
risk 1t is. and they are Offering TO give
employment to the prisoners. In one
county the seventeen negroes that are
due to return have all been thus guar
anteed work. Other counties are doing
the same thing, and probably the ma
jority of this class of the convicts will
find home and freedom on the farms.
Governor James b. McCreary has
pardoned only few convicts. but the
executive has nothing to do with the
wholesale alterations. The court ruled
that he Is powerless to interfere in any
way with the release Of the prisoners.
