Our Convict System.

Capt. Rust lately retired from
the tripod of the Seguin Times, la
menting that he had missed his vo-
cation, and had not been appreciated
as an editor, We think he had no
good reason for encouragement.
We copy the following good and
timely article from his pen. Those
of our people who have seen. the con
Wet car" on our railroad will have o
fresh appreciation of the justice and
force Of the article - ~ la. 10
\ We see by nm interview with the
Governor, published in the Houston
Post, that Gov. Roberts favors the
building of prisons sufficient to con-
fine all the convicts inside the walls.
And we trust that he will urge this
upon the Legislature. The law con
templates that convicted felons should
be confined, and they are sentenced
''to hard labor IN the penitentid,y;'
and to take them out to labor in the
fields is wrong, that might from
sheer necessity be borne with for a
while, but the protection of society
demands that as soon rs means can
be provided to build penitentiar-
les for all convicts it should be done
and the law complied with.
That the protection of the people
of the state demands it is so patent
that we scarcely think it necessary to
argue it and we have heretofore dis
cussed the matter as protection to
the prisoners, from the cruelty of the
irresponsible men who are placed
over them as guards.
But there is another and higher
view to be taken in the matter. Our
law books say that punishment in
the penitentiary contemplates the re
formation of the convict; and this
being so, it does seem to us that the
convicts ought to be kept in prisons
with experienced and humane super
intendents over them, appointed by
the governor, and that wise system
Of reformation ought to be inaugu-
rated by Furnishing the evil disposed.

COTTON

Those who have shipped me
the past season will testify that
| have saved them money and
given general satisfaction, both
in classification and prices. By
referring to the official quotations
of the different markets during
three of the best Cotton months
of last writer it will be seen that
Houston quotations were equal

New Orleans or Galveston.
Greater facilities this season for
