Excerpt from The American Prison System The quality of mercy is an absent factor insofar as its application to penal conditions is concerned. There exists a singular, relentless attitude on the part of the law toward the offender that curbs all hope of regeneration ere it is born, breeding a defiant, stubborn nature that results in no good.

Excerpt from How to Reform Our Prison System A pithy aphorism of Carlyle occurs to me as singularly appropriate for the first class I have referred to. Many a man thinks that it is goodness which keeps him from crime, when it is only his full stomach. On half allowance he would be as ugly and knavish as anybody. Don't mistake potatoes for principles. Ruskin must have had the third class in view when he wrote: The plea of ignorance will never take away our responsibilities. It is written, If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not He that pondereth the heart consider it? And He that keepeth thy soul, doth not He know it As regards the second class, the self-complacent Englishman, the only way to rouse him is, I think, to shock him by flinging cold, hard facts at him.

Excerpt from Modern Prison Systems: Their Organization and Regulation in Various Countries of Europe and America 1. The purpose and scope of this volume. - The foundation of wise plans for the future is laid, not in speculation and imagination, but in Knowledge of the teachings of world-wide experience as formulated by experts. The present work offers: (1) A collection of facts, the actual methods of administering prisons and reformatories in civilized nations; (2) the translation of these documents into English, so as to make them easily available to practical men in America, Great Britain, and wherever our language is understood; (3) to arrange the statements on a uniform plan, so that they may be compared on specific topics;(4) to discover the agreements and the differences in the practice of different countries; and thus (5) to discover some of the causes which produce noteworthy tendencies in administration; and, finally, (6) to call attention to suggestions for improvement in our methods and practice in America. Wise men learn at the cost of experiments made by others; foolish people insist upon learning only from their own experience, with doubtful results. The text of this volume is composed of authentic facts in a certain wide field of social activity where the battle with antisocial forces is fought. But facts, even when intelligently arranged, are not science. Only when the phenomena are displayed in their uniform sequences, their causal connections and their significance for conduct have we a scientific treatment, a reliable theory. This introductory chapter is ah essay toward a comprehension and interpretation of the facts which follow. Naturally the writer of this book, after the long and tedious labor which was necessary to produce it, has a desire and a hope that it will be useful. A study of the documents should stimulate experiment, clarify judgment, enlarge the number of "working hypotheses." These regulations are not final; they do not in all respects agree; and some of them show the influence of antiquated conceptions of the purpose of prisons. But those persons who advance beyond these methods must first know them and climb to their heights in order to see farther. 2. The countries whose administration is described may be divided into two large groups - those of northern Europe, Canada, and the United States of America (largely "Teutonic"), and those of southern Europe, Belgium, and Mexico (largely "Romance" or "Latin"). It is hoped by the author that a supplementary volume will soon be ready, which will add documents relating to Russia, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Sweden, Japan, etc., but the present collection is fairly complete in itself as a representation of European and American methods.

Excerpt from Prison Systems of the United States: Reports Prepared for the International Prison Commission There are four different systems of dealing with sentenced pris oners in the United States: The separate system, the congregate (frs quently known as the Auburn) system, the reformatory system, and the convict-lease system. The separate system in the United States is represented by a single institution - the Eastern Penitentiary, of Philadelphia. An exposition and defense of the principle on which this prison is conducted is given in the article on the Pennsylvania institutions by Mr. Isaac J. Wistar. The late Michael J. Cassidy, for many years warden of that prison, was an ardent advocate of the separate system. For some years the number of commitments to that penitentiary has been much in excess of its capacity, resulting in a doubling of the inmates in many of the cells, which is in direct violation of the principle of separate confinement and individual treatment. The warden and managers have been powerless to resist this overcrowding. They have endeavored to put together those prisoners who are recidivists, or who would, in their judgment, be least affected deleteriously by living and sleeping together in the same cell. Contrary to popular notions and to misconceptions in regard to this prison, the health rate is excellent. From an economic standpoint it is one of the most suc cessful of American prisons.

Excerpt from Wall Shadows a Study in American Prisons On the other hand, there are a few books by genuine men of science which are accurate and valuable; although these are less con cerned, usually, with the details of prisons than with the psychology of the men before they are confined. But such a volume as William Healy's The Individual Delinquent is of permanent value. For the general student the best books are these few, like Donald Lowrie's M y Life in Prison, Al Jenning's Through the Shadows with 0. Henry and this book of my friend, Frank Tannenbaum; books which combine a sane and healthy social point of view with an intimate knowledge of prison life.
