111-117. I will simply add here that moral agencies are far more used now, and are found more efficient than the severity formerly practised.
Question 6 — "Is there any scheme of reform for the system of convict prisons ? On whom devolves the task of originating such reform? What innovations or changes, if any, arc in contemplation ?" * Answer. — No officer or department of the government^ is charged by law with the duty of devising schemes of reform in prison discipline.
The worst evil growing
... out of the present system, and the fruitful source of many others— instability in the executive administration of the pri- sons — is the direct result of a provision of the Constitution; I refer to.
that provision which makes the Inspectors elective by the people, and clothes them with the power of appointing all prison officers — a provi- sion which makes the administration of the prisons the mere foot ball of party politics, and would deprive the best system that could be devised of all chance of working out its normal results^ Of course, no funda- mental reform can be effected until the obnoxious provision is replaced by one which is better.
