W. T. Crothers,| WASHINGTON, Oct. 4â€" The visit of deputations from five to the Central Prison Farm _ at Guelph this week, marks the beginâ€" ming of a movement for far reaching reforms in connectron with the comâ€" aspect of joint jail farms Inspector mon jails of Ontario. _ Instead _ of subjecting prisoners to close confineâ€" ment and allowing them to eke out their terms in idleness it is proâ€" posed that a number of adjoining countiecs coâ€"operate and establish | a joint prison farm, where prisoners can be profitably employed cither in preparing road material for the muâ€" micipalities or in doing farm and other work. Referring to the economic Bruce Smith pointed out to the deleâ€" gates that the five counties involved a cost in five years of $67,274 for jail â€" maintenance. The _ average number of _ prisoners in all five during the five years was . 44. Central Prison, with 400 _ prisoners cost only $60,000 to maintain. ‘The possibilities of united action on the part of the municipalities reâ€" proesented were further pictured _ by the Provincial Secretary:â€" "Uniting," he said, ‘"You _ should get an organization that will comâ€" mand not a jailer at $400 a year, but something that will be worth while taking hold of, and men worth while in charge. _ Get out of your . heads entirely any thought of _ expensive buildings. Any change we would make in our original plans here would be in cheaper construction â€"I don‘t mean less secure. My thought would be a workâ€"camp, a place where you can exercise care . over _ those who are unfortunately wards of the public and inmates of your jails. I do not mean gates and bars; you do not need them so much, but all the time you must know where the men are, what they are doing, and have somebody keeping them at it. "I hopeâ€"within the next year to demonstrate, by giving the _ Central Prison a separate account and creditâ€" ing at market rates what we . proâ€" duce for our public institutions, and charging us with every dollar in the way of maintenance, including adminâ€" istration, that we will not only pay the whole cost, but would hope to have a nice dividend that would be the property of the Province, and which would, in the nature of things, I think, find its way into: distribuâ€" tion among those who ate dependent on those here." If this can be done, and it now appears to be in a fair way of acâ€" complishment, it will go a long way toward the relief of dependent familâ€" ics that in addition to the mortificaâ€" tion involved are deprived of their main squrce of support. Hon. Adam Beck is mentioned as a possible successor to W. T. Crothers as Minister of Labor. It is hardly likely, however, that Ontario‘s Minâ€" ister of Power will consent to forâ€" sake his hobby to help the Dominion Department of Labor out of the hole into which the present head has put it. According to the assessors‘ returns Stratford now has a population of 16,153, an increase â€" of 1,377 over last year, or nine per cent. This showing should be particularly _ enâ€" couraging to Classic City people in a year of financial sttingency * and general retrenchment. Fisher in the Chauteguay byeâ€"election Jends added interest to the contest. MWhether Mr. Fisher with his splendid record as Minister of Agriculture in the Lavriet Goternment, wwill be able to overcome the whole electoral machinery of the Botden Government directed hy Hon. Bob. Rogers, Jn this campaign, remains to be seen. Judgâ€" ing, however, by the reception Mr. KFisher is receiving, _ the electors â€" of Chanieanay are likeiv_ to elect him by a substantial majoifty.

Mackenzie King, has been used during the past two years meteâ€" ly for the purpose of collecting a lot of statistics that may or may ~not mean anything and that certainly are of no practical use in the direction of improving the conditions of labor. ‘The officials have been forced to do this in lieu of amy more useful ocâ€" cupation. Minister of Labor, llon. Mr. Crothers is merely cartyâ€" ing out the policy of his government. The elaborate machinery of :the Labor Department, so carefully built The Dominion Labor Department is to all intents and purposes a . dead institution, and it was never intendâ€" ed by the Borden government that it should have life. This is the logical outcome of the appointment of a man to this imporâ€" tant most â€" who neither understands Canadian labor canâ€" no longer look upon this department as ont constiâ€" tuted to bring about betterment _ in labor conditions. It is under the conâ€" trol of those who have bigger fish to iry. And this is the reward of workingâ€" men for helping the interests to turn a Government that was labor‘s*best friend out of office. of other mothers have the sams praise to offer not only for stomach trouble and teething troubles but for all the minor ills of little ones.
