The State Prison.

1t is reported that the State Board
of Charities will recommend the re.
moval oil the State Prison from Wau-
pun to Milwaukee, for the reason that
it can be more economically managed
at the latter point, and because bet
ter market for its manufactures is as
sured, and shipping facilities will be
more favorable to successful manage.
ment of the institution. The board
recently paid two visits to Milwaukee
and have become convinced that the
interests OF the State will be advanced
BY the removal 1t is not unlikely the
board are convinced that the State
Prison would be more to the interest
of the State located at Milwaukee, or
any other lake port, than at Waupun;
it would evince remarkably obtuse per-
ceptive powers to come to any other
conclusion, but that the Legislature
will ever concur with them is too much
to expect. The most asinine stupidity
seems to have prevailed in locating
the State Prison on the flat prairie at
Waupun, and the Northern Hospital
for the Insane in frog pond near
Oshkosh. But you could hardly ex-
pect more of board than that il
should be wooden.

as the result of ooservat't ms gives
it as his unbiased opinion that the

make the following extract:

distress as was reported last winter,

find ten in Dane county. This year
the damage to wheat and oats is not
as great as list year; corn and pota-
toes are as good as usual. The far
mers laugh heartily about the large
piles of greenbacks donated by their
verdant cousins in the older states,
not that many ever found their way
to their doors. Last year when it
was known what damage was done.
those here who b d good crops held
them for speculation, but soon found
that others whose crops had been
DESTROYED. wouli not be able to buy,
80 bill was introduced in the Min
nesota Legislature to make an ap.
preparation, which was passed. APP
propriating fifty thousand dollars.
The committe bought this wheat
held for speculation, as we'll as the
oats, seed corn and potatoes. for dis
tribution. Farmers who had opposed
the measure, now as the appropria-
ton was made, sold the wheat they
had for seed, and went forward and
demanded seed of the relief commit
Zee. The loafers around town who
can take any kind of an oath, drew
heir share of the supplies also. Yet
fourteen of the fifty thousand dollars
was returned to the treasury.
Now, you will ask, do you not be-
Iieve the stories which come from

answer, l do not. | believe Pennsyl l.
vania has ten suffering for food
where Kansas has one. | do not
believe that those who are asking
Congress for an appropriation have
the least idea of getting it, even
fro a body of men who could APP

lars to an Indian tribe which had no
existence. 1t is done to assist those
dead beats who are fleeing Ohio and
the Eastern States. The idea that a
homesteader with a family and team,
(and who ever saw one without the
other), whose crop had been destroy
ed ia July and August. would sit
down and wait for winter and star
walton, Is too preposterous for sane
man to entertain. The homesteads
of the west do not deny but that the
people in the more eastern states
have a right to give their money to
whom they please, but when they
falsely report them as starving and
asking relief, they naturally feel in

sa> A fearful story comes to us from
the sea, one calculated to shock the
sensiblities of even the most callous
at this season Of festival and rejoicing.
Three Of the crew of the emigrant
ship Cospatrick who had managed to
effect a landing at tho Island of st.

was burned off the Cape OF Good
Hope, and that 400 persons persisted
Full particulars of this disaster have
not yet come to hand, but il is safe to
presume that even if carelessness was
not the primal cause of the accident,
the great loss of life was due to the
usual lack of boats and the inadequate
Liabilities which sailing ships possess

gers ard crew when casualties occur.

That Horrible Gag Law.

The following Is the press-"gag-
law which has been handled in such
a manner by certain newspapers as
to destroy the reputation of Judge
Poland and several other prominent
congressman
Bet enacted Sc, That the criminalcourt of
the District of Columbia shall have urisdic-
ton of all crimes and misdemeanors commit
ted in said district, not lawfully triable in any
other court, and which are required by law
to be prosecuted by indictment or information.
Section 2. That the provisions of the thirty
third section OF the Judiciary act OF 1889
shall apply to courts created by act OF con-
gress in the District Of Columbia.
There does not seem to be any
severe gag in that. 1t provides a
method for the trial of certain classes
of crimes com mitted in the District
of Columbia, without which, Judge
Poland remarked when the bill was
under consideration, last summer, by
a decision rendered in the supreme
court of the district, it became doubt
full if any criminal court there had
