Debs Tells of His
Imprisonment
When a man has remained in pri
son over a certain length of time his
spirit is doomed. He is stripped of
his manhood. He is fearful and
afraid. He has not been redeemed.
He has been crucified. He has be
come a rovings animal, casting about
for prey and too weak to seize it,”
said Eugene V. Debs.
Continuing, he said: ‘T never saw
those bars nor the walls in the nearly
three years I spent in Atlanta,
was never conscious of being a pris
oner. If I had had that conscious
ness it would have been tantamount
to an admission of guilt which I
never attached to myself.”
Kindness in Cells.—Being the latest
arrival, I should have occupied an
upper bunk, but the German, who had
the lower, insisted on taking the up
per and giving me his own sleeping
slab. He also insisted on making
my bed, as I had some difficulty in
making it up so it would pass inspee-
tion. He continued this kindness all
the time I oecupied that cell. He
likewise did my laundering on the
smaller items of apparel that had to
be done.
This German was sentenced for five
years because some liquor had been
found in the lodging house of which
he was the proprietor and at which
soldiers were quartered during the
war. This is one of the many savage
sentences that was brought to my
personal attention, and which excited
my indignation and revqlt.
I never knew a finer man and I
could not have been treated more
kindly and considerately had these
convicts been my own brothera. Upon
the German’s release from prison he
sent me a beautiful pipe, and he has
been writing to me ever since.
Incidents of human kindness in this
prison cell could be multiplied by the
hundreds. I would not give the im
pression that I was the sole benefi
ciary of these loving acts, for I have
seen prisoners manifest the same re
gard toward each other, in spite of
the harsh rules and regulations that
seem calculated to crush magnanim
ity wherever it lifts its benevolent
hand.
Just beyond the prison cells lies
the campus, across the walls of
which guards in uniform pass back
and forth swinging their rifles as if
they were going out to shoot squir
rels. The sight shocked me through
and through with its horrid signific
ance as a symbol of man’s inhuman
ity under the prison regime

WE realize that it is often necessary
for a firm to get printing done quick

of the rush order, it is necessary to
sacrifice GOOD printing for speed.
Considering the speed on this kind of jobs we have

Woman Killed By Mule Team
Johnston.—Mrs. Talula LaGrone
Meyer, wife of Rev. William Meyer,
met a tragic death her© Tuesday
when she was killed by a runaway
team of mules. The team ran away
and threw Mrs. Meyer to the ground.
She got up and walked to her home
and stated that she was not seriously
hurt, but a knot was found on her
head and a doctor was called. She
died several hours later.
the responsibility for it, in the last
analysis, falls directly upon society
itself.
The prison problem is directly cor
related with poverty, and poverty as
we see it today is essentially a social
disease. It is a cancerous growth in
a vulnerable spot of the .social sys
tem.
Man is the only animal that con
structs a cage for his neighbor and
puts him in it. To punish by im
prisonment involving torture in every
conceivable, form is a most tragic
phrase in the annals of mankind. The
ancient idea was that the more cruel
the punishment the more certain the
reformation.
This idea, fortunately, has to a
great extent receded into the limbo
of savagery from whence it sprang.
