Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the first biennial report of the State Board of Corrections and Charities of Minnesota, presenting findings from the board's investigations into the state of charitable and penal institutions in Minnesota. Through careful study of jails, poorhouses, and systems of poor relief, the author provides an overview of the conditions of such institutions at the time and offers suggestions for their improvement, such as the introduction of a cumulative sentence for minor offenses or the creation of a third hospital for the insane. The author emphasizes that each county in Minnesota has approached the organization and management of poorhouses differently, leading to a lack of system and wide disparities in quality of careā"an issue the author believes can be addressed by providing counsel to counties considering building new facilities. Overall, this book provides a comprehensive and insightful look at the state of corrections and charities in Minnesota during the late 19th century.
