have an opportunity that is fayorabl.
He ought not to be put in an enyiro,'

which would hold out hope of another
chance-a chance to make good.
The brutal instinct lingering in man
has been graphically illustrated in our
cruel, inhuman treatment of prisoners
and in our barbaric slaughter Of hu.
man beings, upon whom the death
penalty has been pronounced. Justice
does not demand such an exhibition Of
horrors. There must be some mora
human way Of treating our errins
brothers.
How can we expect criminal "a

starving him, treating him like an
animal instead of like man, putting
him in an iron cage away from Gods
light and air?
There is good material, ability
enough, energy, resources enough Ia
these people we thus deprive Of lib
erty and life, to perform great services
to humanity as well as to themselvei
and their families. What right hayt
we to deprive them at least Of I
chance to make good? How often thu
crime we commit against our prison
ers is far greater than their crime Il
society!
If we wish to reform prisoners WI
should try to make them self respect
ing, healthy beings. Their environ
ment should be as attractive and al
normal as possible. Reform mean
healthful, normal conditions. Tn
mind is in no state to improve or re
form when suffering from mental de
preston due to the vicious, crimina
suggestive environment, where every
thing reminds the prisoner of his fall
or his inferiority, and everythin
about him tends to impress upon hin
the fact that he is not human being
but an outcast.
We have all felt the restful, restol
ing, renewing power of beautifu
scenery, of country life. Why shout
we deprive a prisoner Of these help
to health and normality? Nature is
great restorative, and criminals Shout
be kept where they can get the fu
benefit of the sunlight, air and countr
life, in an environment which woul
suggest only the good and true, nile
with possibilities of recovering los
manhood and starting fresh.
