The humane system OF giving State
prisoners employment, instead OF keeping
them 10 lislless, vicious idleness. is "a
source of trouble to the National Labor
party, both OF Ohio and New York Aside
from the humanity of the system, this
problem is very simple one, VIZ: Shall
these scamps and Williams be supported by
a tx on the labor OF alt honest people. or
shall they be made TO work for their grub?
II the latter, then, whether the prison
labor shall be farmed out to contractors or
not is OF very little consequence.

The campaign meetings held last week
were largely attended aud many persons
who had partially adopted the greenback
theories were brought to "see the error Of
their ways" Hall the growth of these
views has been due TO the fact that they
have been stated and reiterated without
contradiction. Let every man see that
both he, himself, and his neighbor attend
the nearest honest money gathering, that
all may be enabled to see both sides OF the
question. - OXFORD Democrat.
