I "Wg ara workingr away from theag lear Idea that a prison's sole function in to punish the convict." said JFrank Brwdarass, the parole officer at the Ornicon state penitentiary. "Society is beginning- - to realize that vindictive punishment breeds smoldering hatred In, the mind of the convict, and that Injustice breeds revenge. "I have Just returned from a trip of Investigation Into the methods of oth eif penitentiaries, and. while there has been a healthful change of sentiment during the past few years, yet we have only begun. One of the things most needing reform Is In helping the pris oner to help himself. Many of our prisoners are young men In their '20s. In a large number of cases they would become useful citizens if they were taught a useful trade while In the pen itentiary. A much larger percentage of the prison population is illiterate than Is the case outside the prison walls. We should'see that the almost half million convicts yearly commit ted to the prisons of the United States receive some education, so as to make them better able to support them selves when their terms of Imprison tncnt are up. Then, too, a prison school will enable the convicts to make more use of our splendid prison 11- orary. ' "-Another thing that should be done Is .to segregate the young man who comes for the first time, from the con. firmed criminal, who can and does prove an apt teacher In crime. We are beginning to realize that men are not sent to prison to be punished, but are punished by being sent to prison. The loss of liberty, the humiliation and the stigma of conviction are in themselves the punishment. How Parole Board Operates. "One of the plans for the reform of the prisoner that Is proving success ful is the parole system. "Colonel B. K. Lawaon. J. It. Linn and J. F. Ixgan constitute the parole Doara. when an application for a pa role or a pardon Is received the parole board secures a report from the war den as to the conduct of the prisoner, and also a report from the prison doc tor as to his physical condition. They then secure from the sheriff and dis trict attorney and the Judge before whom the prisoner appeared a report and recommendation as to the case. After investigation, the prisoner- Is no tified as to the findings and decision of the parole board. If the parole Is granted, a writ of release is prepared, and the convict la released. They re- j port to roe, ' f- I ."The governor, upon the recommen dation of the parole board, or of his own volition, may revoke the parole and require the prisoner to be returned to the penitentiary. The rule qf the parole board that causes most of the parolled prisoners to break their pa role and be returned to the prison to serve out their sentence -Is Rule 10, which requires the paroled prisoner to abstain from tbe use of intoxicating liquor, and never to enter, a saloon during the period, on which he is on parole, or any other placs In which In toxicating liquor is sold. Only 3 per cent of tbe parole violators come back through the commission of some new crime. Most of them fall through be ing unable to stay away from drink. Here are my monthly reports. Take any one of them -at random, and you will get an Idea of how tbe law is working." i happened to plcK up the report ; ior June, 1914. It showed that a to tal of 51 J prisoners had been parolled since the passage of the law in 1911. Almost one third, or 157 paroled pris oners had violated their parole. The earnings of the paroled men for June bad amounted to $5484.29. The report snowed mat on July 1 there were: On parole beginning of month, 287; paroled (luring month, 9; total on parole at end of month, 296: violated during month. 1: returned for violating, 1; missing violators during month, 0; pardoned during month, 2. Not only do the paroled prisoners earn money, but the prisoners who , work while in the prison are paid 25 cents a day. Here is the record of the prisoners' earnings tor July, 1914: They earned on the asylum farm, 17.75; on the asylum rad gang. $9S; at the Mute school, $7.75; on the Marlon county road gang, $1G0.45; at the brickyard, $294; and at the State Industrial School for Girls, $242.60. "A-prisoner or his friends may make application for, a parole, but whether this Is don or not, if his behavior la good, at the expiration of his minimum sentence his case Is brought to the at tention of the parole board. r Prison Kef orn Is General. "Governor west's humane prison policy, including the honor system, has ) attracted attention, both adverse, as J well as favorable, all over the United States. Advocates of the old order de- . clare It will not "work, and prisoners should be given no pleasures nor lib erties. As against this view the' Iowa warden has .organized a prison band. which plays ln t fie dining room while the prisoners are at meals. The Ohio ; prison has abolished the dark cell, and , liberties are allowed to first termers . in- which 'repeaters' are not allowed to participate. In Illinois the convicts . have oeen allowed to subscribe for ... daily papers and magazines, and over 80 per cent of the prisoners take some publication. Dead silence is no longer enforced. ;Motion pictures 'are' rru. larly shown each week In the Montana : penitentiary, admittance being regulat ed by; the earning of good conduct .. marks. THe' federal prison In Leaven worth has four baseball teams, and the ; ; withdrawing from the convict of the : privilege of participation or attending ice .baseball, games is more effective i man tne Old ume dark cell or the nad. - die.
