STATE CONNECTS.

There are at present 1860 convicts
in the chain gang or penitentiary, A
of whom are in the hospital. These
convicts are employed in building
railroads, mining coal, farming and
making brick. The lease act was an
experiment, because to keep the
criminals in idleness would be no
punishment, and it would impose ad-
ditional tax upon honest industry to
keep them up. The certainty of
punishment is the only thing that
will deter burglars, murderers,
thieves, &c, from the commission of
crime and make it safe for honest
and well-disposed people to live in
this country. Now, it is urged that
convicts must not be worked in com
petition with tree labor. The reme-
dy suggested is to work these con-
vlcts on the public roads of the re-
spectlve counties. There are 1877
counties IN the State and there are
$50 convicts, A of whom are sick.
Distribute these criminals out, and
each county would get about eleven
convicts. TO say nothing of the adj
ditional guards that would have to
be hired, would eleven men be able
to keep the roads Of il county in good
order! Then if the convicts were
kept together and worked, taking
one county at time, then it would
be practically u travelling penitentia-
ny stuck down in county, with no
place to confne them or shelter them.
The question is a knotty one. Solve
it for the best interests Of the people
and the State if you can.

A liOOD SHOWING.

The fiscal year whieh closed with
Wednesday of last week found the
national finances in pretty good
shape in spite of the croaks Of croak-
ers. The public debt, which twenty
years ago was SIS for each man, wo-
man and child in the country, is now
80 for each person in the country /;
and the interest charged, which at
that time WIS over 81 per head, is
now 20 cents per capita. The total
debt to-day is just half what is was
then, and the annual interest charge
but about one fourth of what it was
ut that time. Then the interest
bearing debt was 1882 900, 900, and
the interest FROM to I 3 10 per cent
Now the interest bearing debt is
81 ,22O, 900, 900, and the interert rate
from to 1 per cent. Then the
population among whom the debt
was divided was b, 000, 900; now it is
100000 Then ) cent govern
ment bond was worth 80 cents on the
81, and drug in the Rarket; now a
/ per cent bond IL worth jle, and
hard to get at that. Then the item
cash in the treasury was little over
500, 900, 600; now it is almost $780,
100000.
1t is tavorite occupation with peo-
pie with bad digestion to complain
that the country is terribly burdened
with debt. So it is, but it is espe-
cially happy in this line when com
pared with those of some countries
that pre- supposed to rank very high
in the school Of civilization, For in
stance, while our debts is SAP per
head that of Austria is $50 per head,
that of Spain $50 per head, that of
Italy $50 per head, that of Great Brit
ain 800 pea. mead and that of France
$50 per head.
