Plaintiffs nance. subsequent application Here in Utah, and in all the mountain states, the matter of housing and working state convicts is a simple proposition. They could be distributed and housed in camps of their own building, in parts of the state where permanent public works should be constructed. Just now Utah convicts might be quartered on islands in the Great Salt lake and for the next ten or twenty years be employed in build ing an auto highway from Promontory Point to the. mouth of Jordan river. Other camps could be located along the old Lake Bonneville water mark and put in years building a highline boulevard along the east side of the Salt Lake and Utah Lake valleys. Other camps could be located in the heart of the wilderness wonderland of Utah and forgotten for a score of years while they built a series of boulevards along the Colorado canyons and to the natural bridges. In the wilderness, farms could be located, where convicts could almost wholly support themselves as did the pioneers of the Rocky Mountain region. Such a regime, with a system of rewards and merit markings which would shorten sentences, with credit for small amounts to be paid for the support of families of convicts, or to be paid in lump sums on release, something constructive in re form might be accomplshed. All that is lacking in our prison methods is intelligent handling. The herding system is a mistake. England built a commonwealth in Australia through intelligent handling of con victs.
