Logansport, VIII was convicted in last December
of horse stealing and sentenced to two years
Imprisonment in the Michigan City p%enitenS airy,
was paroled yesterday by the Governor, on con-
dition that he would behave himself and reform
from the use of intoxicating beverages. The
parole is granted for the reason that it is believed
Kearney was insane at the time he committed
the crime, and because his pardon was asked by
all the court officials concerned in his trial, and
by many citizens of Logansport, as well as a
large number of prominent persons of Peoria,
ILL.,, where the prisoner formerly lived, among
the number who signed the petition being Gov.
Dick Oglesby.

never saw a political conscience, nor has he ever
seen one who saw it. Men who EXPECT to be
religious must get it a long time before they
enter politics, or a long time after
they leave it Corporation consciences
and the halfway consciences, were also called
into illustration. There are men whose private
lives were corrupt, but they have been aroused
to conscientiousness by a baptism of official re-
sponsibilities.
In conclusion. the lecturer said that the con-
science of the people. the average people, must
be educated. He did not favor an education of
religious dogmas or the catechism in the public
schools, but CHILDREN ought to be taught the love
of God, honesty, sobriety. love, frugality, kind
ness and mercy.

THE MAINE cENTRAL's PRoPosI-
TInM

The directors of the Maine Central rail
road have made formal proposition to the
Portland & Ogdensburg Company to lease
that road and pay an annual rental of one
per cent. on the capital stock for the first
three years and of two per cent. thereafter.
As the capital stock of the road is $4,000 900
this would yield to the city $50, 900 year for
the first three years after the execution of the
lease, and $4,000 year thereafter.
The proposition is laid before the citizens
OF Portland, whose property the road is, for
their consideration. As the statute provides
that no lease shall become operative without
the assent of majority of the legal voters of
the city there is not the slightest danger that
any rim" will control this matter. There
is no occasion therefore for acrimonious dis
cussion.
Undoubtedly it will be for the city's inter
est to dispose of the road as soon as it can
do SO without mourning the danger of losing
the benefit which it has a right to expect
from it as means of communication with
the West The city in its corporate capacity
cannot handle the road to so good advantage
as can private corporation. The manifest
destiny of the road is sooner or later to pass
out Of the direct control of the city either by
sale or lease. But the city ought not to act
hastily 1t ought not to be in such hurry
to rid itself of the responsibility of the road
as to accept proposition that may cut it off
from advantages which it has right to rea-
sonably expect will eventually come from it
II managed in the interests of the people of
Portland. Before it let's 60 its hold it should
know definitely the parties into whose hands
1t is going, and whether they are identified
and would identify the road. with Portland's
interest or would be.indifferent to them. The
rental that the city may get for the road is of
trlfling consequence, compared with the indi-
rect benefit it may be to the people of Port
land, If managed in their interest 1t would be
better to give it away with the assurance that
twill be managed in the interest of Portland
than rent it for large sum without that as
surance. The principal question therefore in
connection with this proposition of the
Maine Central for the citizens of Portland to
consider, is not whether the rental is ade-
quate, though of course that deserves atten-
ton, but whether if the road passes into the
hands Of that company the business inter
ests OF Portland will be jeopardized. That
OF course is question which the business
men of Portland are more competent to
answer than anybody else.

The Bic Lumber Raft.

No further attempt is to be made to entice
the big lumber raft at Joggins, N. s., further
into the water. Work has, however, been
begun in rebuilding it on the old site. A
steam derrick has been erected, and the tim
Der is to be drawn up the shore. The tim
bers for the ways are to be five feet longer
than in the present raft, or in accordance
with the original plan, and the angle of slope
for the ways will be slightly increased. The
new raft is to be 600 feet long, an increase of
200 feet on the present one. 1t is to be COM
pleted in May next. The expense since
breaking down has been $4,000, and rebuild
ing will involve further outlay of $1,000.

A solution Of the problem Of disposing of
the products of convict labor has been sug-
gested by woman who is somewhat ac-
quainted with the markets of Mexico and
Central and South America She would
have laws passed prohibiting the sale in the
United States of the products of convict Ia
DOR leaving such products to 20 abroad
where, from their cheapness, they could
compete with the products of foreign labor.
Harnesses, boots, shoes and clothing, the
principal articles made by convicts, would
be especially adapted to the markets of Mex
leo and Central and South America In
countries so lacking in enterprise that these
articles are not made at home, such plan
might be put in operation successfully; but
nowhere Is craftsmanship so poor that ma
tive laoorers would be left to compete with
foreign conyicts. The hope is not yet lost,
either, that the markets of Mexico and Cen
trail and South America may be secured to
the products of our free workingmen.
