We VISITED the State Prison yesterday.
It is marvel of neatAess and well Sis
tanned system. Since our last visit
there, the new dIning-room, 391aa feet
long by 30 feet in width. % feet high
and OF three feet external walls, has
been completed. This room is com
pletely ventilated by means of numerous
small openings, high up in the oater
walls, the said openings being barred
with iron. There are double arch ap-
proaches to this dining room, and the
main entrance is protected. at the look
out place (for the guard) with iron
cages-a sort of grim lattice work. Six
new cells are in process of construction
in the old dining room. Also, since we
were there last has been constructed the
new shoe-shop. Here we found Chris
Blair running the sewing machine and
saw Perry Fuller busily engaged at an
other part of tho work, in the store
room part of this cordwainery. Burns,
the man who was sent from Carson for
an assault to murder Gn Winston Ex-
change in the Winter of 1913 is also
in this shoe-shop. One of the trio of
scamps who robbed Chedic's sheep
herder is also a shoemaker. while his
pals 1--WE have forgotten all their names)
are at work at and about the quarry.
There are sc men now employed in this
shoe making establishment and they
turn out some excellent work and a good
deal Of it. There are. in all, 124 prison
ers. There are 5 of these in the carpen-
ter shop. in the laundry, 4 in the tailor
shop, II in the stone-shed, ) masons
and so on-the less skillful being en-
gagged in the quarry as shovelers, wheel
barrow-men, &c. The two Indians
lately sentenced from Douglas county
for beating Chinaman do excellent
work at the force-pump. Not sick
person in the prison. This speaks vol
umes for the management. Every
morning the whole inside of the prison
is made untsnable to vermin by the
burning of red pepper. Captain Cole
man has displayed great efficiency as
i0cum ten.ns during Col. Hyman's an
sence, and everything about the Prison
moves like clockwork.

RELIEF FOR THE LOUISIANA SUFFERERS.
By the overlooking ofthe banks of the
Lower Mississippi River hundreds of
square miles Of land in Louisiana have

that wide spread distress and suffering

and distressful than that which deyast-
ated Persia two or three years ago, and
which now IS bringing starvation and
death to thousands IL East India. has
come upon planter, and freedmen alike.
Ruin, wide spread and terrible, has
come upon that people. In this emcr-
gency this American people on all sides

siye to this general sense Of sympathy

eral Superintendent for this coast, Mr..

sary is on Easter Sunday. 1t will be re-
membsred that when Eastertide was
upon US the reconstruction of the church

happened that the anniversary exercises

thems and songs. Each class will have
its emblem. Floral devices in great
profusion will be displayed. The schol-
ars will attend, in force. A very inter

classes with their emblsms the profus-
ion of devices the happy voices of the
children the music and devotional per-
formances, will make a touching and in-
pressive display.

VAcCINATED.-Docto Allen visited the
State Prison yesterday and vaccinated
such of the guards as needed the appli-
cation of that precautionary operation.
There is but little danger to be appre-

them to break OUT Still it is likely
they will get their share of the vaccine
for that's what's the matter.

should like to take with us the library

Cong nENSiONAL.

In relation to the Congressional
Convention, tho Richland County
Repss5licaA has the following well
tempered article:
The Republican Convention to
nominate a candidate for Congress
from this District is called to meet
at Mineral Point on the 18th of Sep
tenber. Many would have desizg-
mated an earlier day and some other
place, but we understand that the
wishes of 4 majority of the commit
tee were consulted in the selections.
1t is not doubted that the conveu-
ton viii be composed of the forty
two deleg .tes required; but that it
shall wisely represent the people
and the party Is more important.
Is action will determine in advance
the success or defeat of the party ut

iisical gatherings, and to escape the

tlou, and locality. may be contead-

these and other perplexities, the
convention will not forget that a
great injustice imposed by party
friends is no sweeter than 4 lesser
evil suffered from the enemy. The

Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1874-08-13

No palmer appeal to the preju-
dices Of the people could be made.
iar. Holloway realizing the fact that
professional men at this time are
looked upon by the most ignorant
classes with suspicion and envy,
makes his appeal to that class
against lawyers, because he thinks
probably that those most likely to
succeed in plueking the prize he
covets are members OF that profes-
sion. The reference made to MIR.
Holloway's connection with agricul-
ture is an implied falsehood. 1t is
calculated to mislead those who do
not know that he is by occupation a
banker; money changer; a capt.
.alist: whose interests are more at
variance with labor than any law
yer's in the District.
Mr.. Holloway's candidacy seems
to be confined to portion OF Grant
county, where his chief competitor
is Col. Clark, at whom the circular
is simed, the Colonel being a lawyer,
vet who is more farmer than Hol-
loway-tilling 40 acres regularly
and in every sense more III SYM
patty with the people and their
needs.

THERE seems to be no longer any
doubt that Moth Carolina has gone
D, mocratic by at least 10000 ma
jointly, and that seven out OF eight
Congressman elect are Democrats.
This is ). gain of two Congressman
t the democrats as compared with
the present delegation Two years
ago the Republican candidate for
Governor was elected by 1899 ma
jority, but the Legislature was DEM
ocratic in both branches. The gain
for the Democracy is substantial
one, however, and it is not surpris-
ing that they are very jubilant, and
that they have pretty much aban-
doned business to celebrate their
victory. Democratic victories have
not been striking or numerous for
several years, and Republicans can
afford their opponents a triumph
once in q while. The latter viii
scarcely sned many tears over this
defeat, since it relieves them Of all
responsibility for the State govern
ment. For one We should rather
rejoice ii South Carolina and other
Southern States would elect Demo-
cratic officials, and we should then
see how great wonld be the i'm
provement in the administration of
State affairs. We should see how
the political millennium so often
promised by Democracy when it
should come into power would al
feet things.
