BILE that the plea of insanity will be urged

1t is hardly possible to conceive more
infamous convict system than that which
prevails in several of the Southern States,
notably in South Carolina and Georgia.
There is difference. however, in the man
ner in which the outrages which have been
perpetrated are treated by the authorities
OF the two States. In the former State
they have been investigated under instruc,
tions from the governor, and the result OF
the investigation is the arouslng OF pub
lie sentiment which bids fair to result in
the abolition of the entire system of
leasing couvicts. In Georgia, however.
the authorities seem disposed to white
wash eutrages which are so infamous as
to be almost unnamable. The physician
of the State penitentiary went to the con-
Wet farm. where the convicts are hired by
State Senator Smith. and made report of
the state of affairs. which the governor
promptly suppressed. 1t has been since
learned that the physician declared the
convicts were being starved, that the sani-
tary condition was fearful. and that the
morals of the chain gang were too bad
to be expressed in writing, the men and
women being all chained together. and
made to eat, live and sleep thus. He
pronounced the whole camp in a state OF
filth. both morally and otherwise. Yet in
the face of these allegations the governor
issued an order dismissing the complaints
which had been made against this convict
