INDIANA PRISONS CLEAN; PRAISED BY K. BOOTH

Pleading earnestly for the cause of "Her Boys," Mrs. Maude Ballington Booth, the "little mother" of the men In the prisons of the United States, epoke before about 2,500 people at the Chautauqua yesterday afternoon, and asked for sympathy for the man who has been so unfortunate as to be sent to prison. Mrs. Booth has devoted the last 20 years of her life to an endeavor to better conditions surrounding imprisoned and paroled men, and her name Is known in every prison of the United States.

"Who are we with our open Baloons, with our slum districts, with our license of crime, to say that any man has slipped beyond the reach of hope? If we are good, it Is not because we are Intrinsically so, but because there has been a mother's hand and a father's example and we have been drilled through childhood until we, as men, could be trusted. Give Prisoners Help. "We must do for the prisoner what has been done for us in our childhood. Instead of standing in judgment we should gladly help those who have had fo much against them. It is a reflection on society that so many men have to go to prison to feel the first touch of sympathy and hear the first kind word. "When I went into prison work 20 years ago, I found a mass of men put there to be punished and to be kept under lock and key, so that they would not disturb society. It was hard in those old days, when men marched In lock-step, wearing the striped suit, with eyes cast down, observing the silent system. "But men are now realizing that though they are in prison, they are still men with capabilities, and the prison is coming to be a blessing to the men who go within. Make Citizens of Men. "We must make the man a good citizen while he Is in prison; If we do not he will retrograde back into the old paths. "The shadow of the prison wall

reaches over the United States, and w herever it falls it brings sorrow and heartache. It is up to us who are happily free from it to meet its problems. The man who has learned hi3 lesson should have a chance to work and hold up his head. "We should choose for the heads of our penal institutions the best, cleanest, brightest, ablest men in the land. In many states the prison warden's place is merely a political job. Thank God, that is not the attitude of Indiana. It has been my joy to hold up Indiana as an example to other states. Praises Indiana Prison. "I believe that your prison at Michigan City is the cleanest 6tate prison in the United States." Mrs. Booth was introduced by Mrs. E. E. McDivitt, president of the Federation of Women's Clubs. The members of the executive board of the federation, Mrs. A. W. Roach, Mrs. J. E. Cathell. Mrs. A. L. Bernhardt, Miss Annette Edmunds, Mrs. S.

that the interest on a twenty year bond issue for $500,000 is estimated at

$236,000; and therefore the estimated

total cost of a level bridge in princi

pal and interest is the sum of $736,000. That the City of Richmond, Indiana,

is unable and is unwilling to pay any

part of this sum of $736,000 or to construct any part of a level bridge for the reason that the City is now near its constitutional debt limit and could not legally give any substantial financial assistance. That an overwhelming majority of the tax payers of Wayne County, Indiana, are unwilling to pay the sum of $736,000 for a level bridge and do not believe that the construction of a level bridge is necessary and therefore the Board of Commissioners declines to impose on the citizens of Wayne County such an unnecessary burden in taxation. That the construction of a level bridge will create legal entanglements and litigation of considerable magnitude litigation concerning the changing of the grade of Main street and the payment of damages to owners of property injuriously affected by the construction of a level bridge and also litigation, concerning the lowering of the tracks and the changing of the

grade of the roadbed of the C. & O. Railway. That litigation will inevitably take time and indefinitely delay and postpone the construction of a bridge. That an overwhelming majority of the citizens of Wayne County and particularly of West Richmond and of the business men of the City of Richmond are unwilling to further delay the construction of a bridge at Main street and are unanimous in a widespread and loud demand for the immediate construction of the Main Street bridge and therefore the Board of Commissioners considers it unjust and unfair to delay the construction of a bridge at Main street by ordering the construction of a level bridge. Now, therefore, The Board of Commissioners of the County of Wayne, firmly believing that the construction of a level bridge is unwise and impracticable because of the excessive cost in money and time, and being convinced that the demand for the immediate construction of the bridge at Main street should be granted, does now resolve and order that the proposed bridge over the Whitewater River at Main Street in the City of Richmond, Indiana, should be and shall.be constructed at or near and on the grade of the present steel Main Street bridge.
