found interesting i
H1IUNU CONVICTS TO COUNTIES
Mr. Laban Mauldln's bill to prohi
bit convicts from belog loaie'J for
work on private farms created a long
dtsousslon.
Mr. Mauldlu claimed that the pres
ent law puts convict labor lu com
petition with honest and free labor,
lie cited instances where men employ- |
lug cor.victs were taking conti acts lor
grading streets aud making brick w ith
convict labor, while honest laborers |
were out of employment Hid ice,
Coi > utS no* been let to private farm
er, they could not have been avail- ,
able for this contract work. Lie was
opposed to convlots being hired for
any purpose. Our roads need improve
mi nt. We have thousands of s ? a of
swamp lands which may be reclaim
ed. There are Duiubers of ways In
which convicts can be employed with
OUt coming into competition with free
labor.
Dr. Woods defended the bill along
the same lines as Mr. Mauldin.
Mr. Jeremiah Smith asked if this
would not bo discrimination against
farmers, as railroads and Othi r enter
prises could employ convicts, not being
excluded in the 1)111.
Mr. 0. B, Robinson stated that he
proposed tOOlTl r an amendm nt to rem
edy that discrimination.
Mr. Prino1 |*t>ked if it were discrimi
nation (or the State to have her own
farms.
Mr. Mauldin replied that it was, but
ho couldn'tIncoiporate that in his bill,
as tho Slate has this properly aud can
not easily get rid of it at once.
Mr. Prince continued that be favored
a measure giving preference to those
counties which propose to Utilize con
vict labor on public roads ; but lu dood
not think it would be wise to contino
tho directors to such lessees, as all of
tho convlots i.dght not be contracted
for, and the others would be In the
penitentiary at an expense. ilo
favored leasing convicts to privato
parlies to relieve tho penitentiary of a
congestion of population, as this has
boon a source of revenue to tho State.
Contracts now in force cannot bo in
terfered with under tho constitution.
Mr. C. E, Robinson said that a meas
ure would be introduced to work con
victs on the publl: highways. Tho
author of tho bill w? uld accept an
amendment to provide that no con
tracts now in force be Interfered with.
The house by a vote of US to 01 re
fused to strike out tho enacting words.
Mr. M. 13. Woodward ollerod an
amendment tt.at convicts could bo em
ployed by couutics at the rato of 15
cents each per day for the purpose of
building roads and highways.
Mr. Sawyer offered an amend
ment designed to prevent tho hiring
of convlots to any private concerns
whatever.
Mr. Wo od ward stated that he was
in favor of leasing convicts to farmers
as well as to any other person or cor
poration, but be thought it wise to
hiro the convicts to counties for tho
public roads. Tho need of good roads
Is a pressing one, and the counties
should be given an opportulty to hire
convicts from tho State penitentiary
to work tho roads.
Mr. Stevenson, chairman of the lato
penitentiary investigating committee,
said ttiat he had been through the af
fairs of the penitentiary pretty thor
oughly, and ho was quite sure that If
tho hiring of convicts to privato
parties were prohibited there would be
a deficit in the Slate treasury. If the
counties aro allowed to tako tho con
victs without competition they can
dictate tho price, but if countios must
compete with private parties in ac
quiring convict labor, then there will
be revenue coming into the State. The
State now nets $.*>(> annually over and
nbove the expense upon each convict
hired OUt. He differed with Mr. Wood
ward on the price to be paid for con
vict labor.
Mr. J. VV. Ragsdale commended tho
present penitentiary administration
and thought that while the cor.victs
should be worked on the highways, It
would be inexpedient to chango tho
method now in operation.
Dr. Wycho agreed with Mr. Wood
ward. County roads first and then
surplus convicts to bo hired to privato
parties.
Mr. Ilydriek favored legislation
which would send convicts back to tho
counties to work thj roads and Im
prove tho health and upbuild tho pro
sperltp of the community. U-j wanted
tho bill to provide for convicts to clean
out streams and lowlands.
Tho presentation of bo many amend
ments began to get the measure con
fusc*d, and Mr. i'rinco moved to re
commit tho bill In order that the bill
bo gotten,iuto tangible and intelligible
shapo.
This was opposed by Mr. Woodward,
and the house refused to recommit by
a tie vote.
Mr. Bydriok'samendment to provido
that counties hiring convicts might
uso their for cleaning out streams was
killed, as woll as his amendment to
apportion tho number equitably among
the counties.
Mr. Stevenson's substituto was then
taken up for discussion.
Mr. Woodward opposed it as net fix
ing a delinito price for tho hiro ol con
victs by counties.
Mr. Stevenson showed that tho State,
Is now getting $50 a year for each con
vict, much In excess of what tho ro
venuo would be at ID cents a day, or
$10.80 a year. Hotter not havo a fixed
price If it would entail a depreciation
in revenue.
Mr. Woodward claimed that tho
counties deserved to hiro convicts
cheaper than individuals. The public
roads aro groat civilizars, and tho
State can afford ?to hiro convicts to
counties at a i educed price for this
great work.
Mr. 1'rince wanted to adjourn dobato
to another day, as tho matter was so
?"^rnifuscd : but the house refused to do
so.
Dr. Wycho agreed with Mr. Wood
ward that Mio counties aro a part of
tho Ststo and good roads do?crvo
much consideration at tho hands of tho
State.
Mr. Cantt opposed Mr. Stevenson's
substitute as defeating tho original ob
jects oPMr. Mauldln's bill.
Mr. Williams thought that tho poor
counties of the Stato would be paying
for building roads for moro fortunate
counties, as tho penitentiary funds
would fall behind If tho hiro wore fo
bo at a low rate, and a direct appro
prlatlon would bo necessary to rur. ti e
penitentiary.
Mr. StevenBon and Mr. Woodwa'd
agreed upon a BOhedtllo of char(fos and
submitted an amendment to tbke tho
placo of Mr. Mauldin*i original bill.
This amendment was adopted by a vote
Of to 12, and tho bill passed a second
reading, as follows :
Tho board of directors of the peni
tentiary aro hcrebyl authorized and
ompowored to leaso or hire out any
convicts in tho penitentiary,' except
convicts under sontenco for murdor,
rape, arson and manslaughter, undor
tho following rules, and regulations,
and restriction, with all others in
posed by tho said hoard : That tho
said board of directors shall mako an
annual roport to tho general assembly
at tho regular sessions, showing tho
number and names of convicts hired
out, to whom hind, for what purpose,
and for what consideration, and tho
board of directors are authorized to
retain for the uso of tho penitentiary
all amounts rccoived by them from the
hire of labor of convlctu during the
current fiscal year; Provided, That
the preforenco shall be given to ooun

UIENNIAL. SESSIONS WIN
Mr. Efird called up his joint resolu
tion to make the sessions of the Gen
eral Assembly biennial. Tho time of
the General Assembly, ho said, is
taken up amending and repealing
statutes. Tho statutes of a general
nature arc jumbled up and tho laws
affeotlng the several counties are at
variance. There aro only seven or
eight States which have annual
sessions of tho General Assembly. Ju-t
as much could bo accomplished iu
biennial sessions. The Legislators are
pledgeu uo economy, aud toe people
should bo given a chance to say wheth
er they want tho Legislature to meet
every year or eveiy two years. Tho
bill merely provides for au election on
' the question of an amendment to the
! Constitution.
Mr. Peurlfoj said ho was a member
of the llouso 'in 1880, 1887, 1888 and
1880. The resolution, ho sad, was
nothing new. tie said at that time
that if the House did not, meet in five
years it would bo better. Formerly
tho House met Iftte in November and
adjourned before Christmas, but you
Kef Or m Legislators meet and remain
in s--bsion forty days, and there is no
more dons. Hiennial sessions are
wanted.
Mr. Wolfo said that nine-tenths of
his constituents favored biennial ses
sions. There was now too much legis
lation. The Stato is Dot rich enough
to pay for laws of no value. Tho tax
payers aro overburdened. There is a
public domand for the measure.
Mr. LJacot said that since 1701 down
to the present time tho bill of rights
has provided for the General Assembly
to meet frequently. He thought it
healthy for the 'awmakers to meet fre
quently. It ib the result of tho wisdom
of ages.
After further discusdon u yea and
nay vote was ordered, which resulted
8,'l to 22 in favor of tho resolution.
The advocates of biennial sessions
won a decided victory ; thoso voting
for tho rosoiutlon were Messrs Ashley,

ho was finally excused.
Mr. McCullough was paired.
Mr. R >gors and Mr. Prlnco said that
If they had boon In tho hall they would
have voted yea.
The 8.1 votes adopted tho resolution
and by the bare "skin of a vote" tho
House adopted tho resolution sub
mitting tho question of hlonnial ses
sions to tho people for a constitutional
amendment.
Undor the constitution It took the
eighty throe votes to order the vote on
tho constitutional question, and tho
resolution now goes to tho Sjnato,
having passed tho third reading in the
House.

THE SENATORIAL SC.-t NDAIj.,
A. Montana Politician Who is .VI leged
to Have Bought ills Hr-nt in the
United SUteBSonate.
Tho Senate committee on elections
has resumed consideration of tho case
of Senator Clark, ol Montana, who is
charged with having bought his way
Into tho United States Senat?. The
facts that have been given the public
iuJicute either the mo:*t open bribery
of the Montana L. igislaturo, or else the
hold st game of hlutr that has ever
been p ayed in a political ,!ght.
It seems ihata lawyer of Hatto, Mon
tana, nameu Wellcome was the man
ager of Clark's oampalgn in the Mon

side, of Montana, convinced that Well
oomo was a Ciu< k lobbyist, and present
for the purpose of Improperly obtain

st If in iiis corlidenceT He succeeded,
and ere long had promised Iii? vote, to
Ulark and agreed for $10.000 to aid
W'ollcome. in securing certain Other
votes. Whltei'lde thereupon took into
his conti lencj two ottier members of

bands ol Whlteslde as stakeholder, too
mouey net to he paid OVwr until the
votes were delivered, A mom bar of
the House Was also fount! who agreed
to vote for Clark for ^.OOO. aud this
sum was al.-o placed in Whlteslde'd
tiands as stakeholder. When White
side had Ii st agreed to co-operate
with Wellcome for $10,000 lie had re
ceived $ri,0t<0 on account. Tuis, with
the other sums whioh he hehl as stake
holder, aggregated $:io,ooo.
It was at Hos stasra of the game that
Whlteslde thoug .t everything was
reaily for his coup before tho Legisla
ture, aud so he arose in hid place, re
cited t'io laets which hav._> alroady
uoen given, doneunced Wellcome as
the tiuancial agent of Clark, and as
evidence of the truth of Iiis story, sent
up $;io,ooo In cash to the president of
the S.r.ate. A tremendous sensation
fol lowed.
Hut f Whiteside's story is true
Clark'd agent had already fixed a ma
jority of the h.>jy ind they were oblig

rirst bI.o :k of Whitslde's disclosure was
rallied from, the Clark contingent in
the Senate turned tue utlacK upon
Whiteside, declaring that this $30,000
bad not been received from the agent
of Clark, but it had been furnished by
Marcus Daly, the copper king - a . o

the purpose of making this grandstand

eliminating dark from the Senatorial
ratio. Tnoy then proceeded to convict
Whitedido of falsehood and ( xpullcd

Though stunned by tho miscarriage
of his tight in tho Senate, Wtuteuido
did not tamely submit to i h ? result
reached in that body, but carried the
ca.e, into the courts in a motion to dis
bar Wellcomo from practice. This
opened the whole case anil all tho tes

The opponents of Clark have car

COTTON A SURPLUS CROP.
Kditor llomo and Farm .
The advance in tl'C price of v n
will CAU6C an iuorease in cotton a. re ge
for liic coming year. Many Inrim-is
will plant ou Hie "all cotton" plan
next bpring, thinking that they \\? i ^ct
8 cents per pound for tl eirCOtt1 M in St
fall and neglect their food crops.
Just suppose a crop of 12,000,000
bale's next tall, how nun ii would a lui in
er receive for his crop ? Some itrnuo
thai it 12,000,000 baa s are made ni \l
year the price to be paid will he not i
less lhau 8 coins, 'l in y Liy to make
themselves believe ii. ii the faetorit
are In hind.' Thl'J ii)uy be true, but il
a fai nu r should neglect to raise any
hogs and \leauuts, what wi i h> do lor
incut if for any reason cotton should he
chcup ? And if lie neglects Iiis caito
cmp and other- , hUell as pC is, lie- , po
tatoes, etc., lie vniII i>>- i.unip.iriuivuly ,
left. Kvcu it coiiou shoui? ie worth
10 cents next lall it hhould be a sur
plus crop. A l.uiuoi should ..cv_r buy
any coin, and always have a f< w lu n
dree pounds of meat to sell. Some
think hog1; re too much trouble to
raise, and that thoy can make cotton '
and buy their meat cheaper than they
can raise hogs. This is a mistake. A
person can have n pasture convenient
to the house and raise bogs almost on
what would otherwise be thrown away.
Then hogs kept in a pasture are not
subject to cholera as when let to tun
out on the range.
An} farmer can fence a few acres off
and have a Spanish peanut patch. My
so doing he can turn his hogs in on
thein in August, and his hogs will be
nearly ready for the butcher by the
time his corn is gathered, and more
thai: tln.t, hogs will fatten better in
warm weather than in co il. Then to
have meat to sell, you car pay for work
being done on tbc farm (if you cannot do
it all yourself), and never miss it.
Why, it looks foolish to buy meat when
it can be produced at home so easily.
1 had hogs this year weighing lrotn 150
to 170 pounds, and they were not
twelve months old. They had never
eaten much corn. They were raised
on slops principally, and in July 1 be
gan giving them small watermelons
that were raised in my Spanish peanut
patch, and by the middle of August
they were doing fairly well, when i
put them on the peanuts. A pig, in or
der to thrive, should never get "stunt
ed." A few peas boiled, once a day,
is just spiendid for pigs.
I know fanners who raise cotton in
plenty?a large crop?and boast of
their splendid farming, and after the
truth is known they have their corn to
buy, meat to buy, make no cane do
potatoes, and have no garden, and, in
faot| nothing but cotton. Well, 1 can't
see anything great in this. A farmer
can never prosper under such o.unlit
ions. In summer I like to visit a
Community and ?nd at the dinner table
plenty of beans, peas, Irish pota
toes; in fact, vegetables of every
description, and thenliud ou hand
watermelons, etc. In the fall I
want to see barns groaning with corn,
peas, etc., while in smokehouses I
want to sec meat hanging from each
cud.
Think of old times?times just after
the war?when cotton was scarce and
times were good. Cotton has been the
farmer's ruin. It lias made many of
our boys leave the farms and seek
positions in the city. A tanner can he
the most independent man on earth it
he will only try.
There have been more than fifty
cotton mills opened up in the past
twelve mouths iu the South. There
are more people to use cotton, and
there are more usages for cotton than
have been, but is that any reason why
a farmer Should make more ? Why lie
should work all his life and then die in
poverty ? Why, no. Make such as
you will consume and let cotton he a
surplus crop. Did you ever see a farm
er get rich by raising cotton ? A few,
but "they are few and far between."
It < ne will keep out of debt and make
what he needs for home consumption,
ho can be contented to live on the
farm. Timothy.

Just out of reach, Is where every man
would like to be when danger threatened
him. Disease is more dangerous than
any wild beast. To be just oot of reach
of disease, is safer than to engage it in
a death struggle with doubtful results.
The secret of keep
ing j ist out of reach
of disease is in keeping the
blood pure and rich. Pure
blood offers no breeding
ground for disease germs. Rich blood
creates a vigorous vital force to resist dis
ease. This ideal condition of the blood
is best obtained by the use of Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. In thou
sands of cases where there has been ob
stinate cough, bronchitis, spitting of
blood, weakness or other ailments which
if neglected lead on to consumption,
"Golden Medical Discovery" has healed
the disease and put the life just
out of reach of the destroyer.
There is no alcohol or other'
intoxicant contained in
" Golden Medical Dis
