"But I have noticed on many occasions the genuine kindness shown by prisen officials to -their changes, some of whom did not deserve it. Much of the danger ligs with the sentimentalists, whose briny organs drip tears over the well-cared for brute, but not a tear for the unfor- tunate victim, dead or alive, of the object of their superficial sorrow. From what I observed, I think that Portsmouth penitentiary is among the very .best conducted on this continent, considering the inter- ests of the public safety. Warden Ponsford, who came there recently with a fine reputation, has not yet had time to put in force many im- provements in prison regulations, discipline and conduct, but he is making every effort to do so. If half of the practical and wholesome recommendations for improvement irr the conduct of the penitentiaries, as are put forward in the yearly re- ports of the superintendent of peni- tentiaries (General W. P. Hughes), were taken up and put in force by the authorities at the top, there would not be any complaint from even the briny sentimentalist. But governments can never carry out within reasonable time, the best re- commendations made to them by the most responsible and experienced of- ficials. From what I saw of criminals from provincial jails wearing wuni- forms that have been discarded by Dominion authorities over twenty ~| years ago, and from other reports, I do not think the Ontario prison authorities will do well to criticize the conduct of the Dominion peni- tentiaries. ------------ Big Spring Tapped On Canal.
