How Shall It De Utilised So ni to lieneflt All Concerned f To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: Not any. more Important meeting has been held of late anywhere than the State Conference of Charities and Correction which is called to meet at Fort Wayne next Tues day, and no topic Is likely to come before that .body near so Important in Its economic,' social and moral bearings as the hackneyed question: What to do with con vict labor. Though it will there be in the hands of experts it may be allowable for a layman to say a word on it In the "Journal, for the question is too broad and far-reaching to be settled by any single convocation of even such men and women as will comthat conference. No single Slate LegI 'siaiure can seine 11. 11 is interstate ir noi International in its scope. Like ell such questions, It win never be settled until it is settled right, and it never can be settled right until It is settled in conformity with Justice and at once in the Interest of the convict and of society; hence I hope that the conference, after fully discussing It, win invite other similar conferences to join In a national conference, so that whatever the most" enlightened and philanthropic thought of the day may dictate may become practically uniform at least through the United States. Let me premise that we are not ready yet to adopt the best treatment of prison ers. Public opinion and the public con science axe passing through a transition stage a tentative period, as it were. There is Just now a conflict between sentimentalism run mad and unreasoning and unreasonable organized labor. What with bou quets on the one hand and organized labor on the other the convict is often idle half his time, and if put to work at all it is at a class of labor which yields little to the State, and is utterly worthless to the convict in after life, even if he should want to earn a living by labor. It seems to me there are a few funda mental principles which must underlie the question In its final settlement: such as. nrst of all, prison life is not to be made a heyday period. The notion of punishment must not be dlmlnuted, while humanity 4 to be interwoven through the entire sys tem. 'Hard labor" used to be required of convicts. It now seldom Is, but it ought to be. always. Hard labor Is the lot of the majority of honest men who support their families, and It is chiefly because convicts wanted to get along without it that they are convicts, liestdes, employment in prison is as essential to the morals and to the mental and physical health of prisoners as to all others. Hundreds of prisoners have been damaged both physically and mentally, and morally, also, by the idleness1 which our tentative process has enforced. This Is cruel. The only proper question to settle is what to S?prlneLS dolnS KPremISInK jhat i profit to the State should be a secondary profit to the State should be a secondary consideration, without being wholly ignored. I would urge that the lndustrj' should not be degrading or humiliating, if any neces sary industry can be so classed. It should be an industry which could be carried on within prison wans; hence, the fad of making good roads by convict labor should not be entertained a moment. The Inhumanity of this is obvious, while the plea that con vict labor should not come into competition .with free labor, therefore, put them on roads or in mines, is specious and cruel. No class of laboring men demands protec tion more than the unorganized labor which finds employment in Just such work as this. It is the quintessence or selfishness to drive anybody from the more profitable callings to starvation because other Indusirirs tire nut uuirciru uy vi ganii-aiiuri. ana it is the perfection of cowardice for the State to be stampeded by such a clamor. Let the Fort Wayne conference and the interstate or international conference first resolve that convicts should not labor, and that the extent or-hardness of the labor should have the element of punishment in it without cruelty: then let them wholly discard all considerations of competition with anybody else s labor. Railroad 'nave entirely destroyed tne once profitable and honorable Industry of teaming, and the planing mill turned out of employment thousands of carpenters at its besrinnlnjr. and now comes the type-setting machine and disregards the convenience, not to say the right of thousands of printers, and the electric car has not only nearly broken up the livery business, but it has made the traffic in fine horses and the manufacture of fine carriages almost worthless. Yet nobody minks or interdicting tnese and a I thousand other similar things. becaue of tKlff nam r,0Zf inno. ito,. fng those who may seem to be Fufferers to adjust themselves and their, callings to the new order of things, and an who have pluck enough to live respectably soon do this. The selection of any one. or two, or more industries as best suited to convict labor might cause a temporary inconvenlence with some, but In a decade the bus! ness and commerce of the world would be go adjusted to the new condition that not one in ten thousand woull' notice the changes. My thought Is that this cctnlng conference should patiently discuss this question and pass It up to the National Conference. where It should be thoroughly considered. and ultimately this National Conference should select from all industries possible to be used within prison walls two or morf not many that can be operated with the least expensive plants, and that will furnish the. moat employment for unskilled la bor, and In which "hard labor," in the way of punishment, can be exacted without cruelty. Whether sucn industries can be operated profitably or not to the State. While jt 0Ufht not be operated at a loss, the profits to the State should be a secondary consideration. Employment, constant empioymcni, sncuici cc a iirsi confiQcration. The learning of some honorable trade should also enter the question, so that. If the man or woman, after release, wants to earn an honest living, which is rarely the case, a living through employment may be possible. Some system of profit sharing mieht be wisely introduced so as at least to encourage proficiency and skill In what has to be done, and all organizations of la bor. In prison or out, in this State or In any other, that may discriminate against an exise worthy, or should make good wages as any other skill, should be forbidden forces many a man to repenitentiary by It3 cruelty toward tex-conv!cts, and largely through la bor organizations, which will neither take them In nor allow them to work at their trade outside. When a National Conference of Charities and Corrections shall have selected such Industries, let them be recommended to the States, no matter what industries may seem at first to be damaged by it. and tnen let all the States adopt them with as much uniformity in detail as possible. The case is urgent, cut not so urgent that due deliberation cannot be taken. Making all due allowance for diverse conditions In the heveral States which may Justify sllaht mollhcations of details, the essential features ought to be the same in all the States, both for the benefit of society and of the criminal clarses. A matter bo affecting the whole country should not be left to the whims of local boards of directors, nor to wardens, nor even to Mate legislatures. rd the National Conference of Charltlm nd c?.rr,ectJOIl" a.n mature this scheme tnac au ouie iecuwiur wou.q do oniy ioo did tq conform to Its crsentlal features, as
