THE SALE OF PUBLIC PROPERTY.
TO THE EDITOR OF TIE NEWS.

TO THE EDITOk OFThE NEWS.
Since the advertisement Of the sale Of State
property have intended to give some atten-
tion to 1t, but have postponed doing 80, from
day to day, until the present. 1t Is unquss-
tionably an unwise move to sell this property,
particularly as the small amount produced BY
such sale could not be more than drop 10 the
bucket towards the liquidation of the State
debt. The debt, then, will remain, the prop
erty will be gone, sd where will be the
money? Not Into the State treasury; no, not
a dollar; 1t will be eaten up before 1t reaches
that point. Well, the taxes will remain, the
property gone. and the debt, comparatively,
undisturbed. If Governor Scott or the Legis-
lature really wish to see lhe State prosperous
neither the one or the other will stand with
folded arms and see this matter 60 on. They
will at once stop the proceeding. The people
do not wish to see this property wasted. It's
clearly duty incumbent upon those In power
10 respect the wishes of the people by saving
the State from being despoiled Of her real
estate. hope, Mr.. Editor, to see full ex-
preston on this head. There is no time to be
lost. Let US, at least, chow that We cannot
see the State property wasted without pro-
test. - A TAXPAYER.

sentence of ten years Imprisonment and Ave
thousand dollars ane, while # sentenced as
held by the defence, under the fourth section,
the punishment is light. Numerous authori-
ties were cited to show the illegsllty Of the
mode of procedure in this matter being pursued
by the prosecution, and also to show that
to carry out the opinions held by them, would
be to put in operation an e1 post tdcto law. In
other words, to punish men for an act COM
mitted In March under law enacted In April,
which is the position of the prisoners as re-
CARDS the eleventh count, to which they have
plead guilty. The court granted the request
Of the prosecution for time to reply to the
weighty considerations Of the argument Of
Mr.. Stanberry.
It is very evident that the district attorney
has an elephant on his hands In this matter,
and the opinion of the legal minds who daily
throDg the courtroom Is that there can be but
one f11al result upon the question as to the
constitutionality of the law, and the irregn-
larity of the attempts to enforce it.

advantage to others. Iscau be said, without Of.
Tending truth, that his loss is irreparable.
We cansbut partially feel this !oss. 1t will be
