The withdrawal Of Ii. II.
Cherry from the race for the
Democratic nomination for Gov.
ernor, has cleared the air littl?
in that race, and large number
of his supporters will turn over
10 McChesney. 1t is quite prob.
able from present indications
that one or two more will drop
out, and in the end 1t may come
TO IA race between Stanley and
McChesney, which would surely
decide the whisky question in
the state. In the event of such
race there would be no question
but that McChesDey would carry
this county, for the simple rea.
son that local option, as We have
1t here, is anything but satisfac
tory To the general public, and
National or Statewide pr0hibi.
tion would be welcomed by a
large percentage OF the voters.

'CONVICTS not C0DDLED,
SAYS WARDEN OSBORNE
Sentiment" Absent IN Handling PRS
oners. Deslares Head Of s
Sing Sing.

Thomas Mott Osborne. Sing Sings re-
form warden. told yesterday some Of
his experiences when he tried being a
prisoner and some Of the ideas he holds
concerning the treatment that should
be accorded men who are found guilty
of crime. The address was given under
auspices Of the women's department of
the National CiVics Federation In the
Masonic Temple auditorium.
While living the life Of an Auburn
inmate. he found that men who refused
to work were put in the dungeon. he
then refused and went to the dungeon.
II was seven feet long by three feet
three inches wide. Two mon we're re-
quired to share 1t. The walls were
damp. There was no Light. In an ad-
joining cell was boy Of q. who had been
thrown there just after being released
from the hospital where he had under
gone an operation on an ear. Osborne
heard the groans Of the boy and got the
boy out, though not without a struggle
against the rules Of the institution.
Since he has been head of Sing Sing.
Warden Osborne has attempted to
institute self-government among the
convicts. Everywhere he has had the
opposition Of ancient laws and political
enemies. Indeterminated sentences for
all prisoners is the policy that Warden
Osborne advocates. He denies there Is
a criminal type.
At Sing Sing" said he. we are not
dealing with prisoners in a spirit Of
sentimentality. They do not want
coddling and they don't deserve It. The
punishment of a sentence does not come
from the physical discomforts q q
prison. 1t is because Of loss Of liberty.
He advocated sending prisoners into
the open air to work upon the pubic
roads without stripes and that they
be placed upon their honor.
