The proposed amendment Of the con

Wet labor to private contractors was ad-
opted by the people of Illinois at the last
election by a majority of more than 20
900. The Chicago HcTdld says that while
the vote in its favor was very heavy in
the cities the rural districts generally
gave adverse majorlties, the idea having
been carefully cultivated that with the
abolition Of contracts the prisons would
once more require large appropriations
for their maintenance. The amendment
Is in the following words: Hereafter it
shall be unlawful for the commissioners
of any pcnitentiary or other reformatOry
institution in the state of Illinois TO let
10y contract to any person or persons or
corporators the labor of any convict con
fined within said institutions" The
practice will therefore come to an end at
once, though existing contracts will. of
Course, be fulfilled.

varIably has his private carriage driven
into the coal yard. alongside of the rail-

stand the horses on side track, some
distance from the depot proper. The
reason this is done, it Is stated, is be-
caus" the president wishes to escape the
crowd which usually awaits hin when he
leaves or arrives. But this seems strange,
because the president generally manages
to make his arrangements to 90 out of
town unaHnOunCed, except or Il very few
occasions. The cause of the talk against
This foolish habit OF making the carriage
stand down on the tracks outside the
stallion was the barrow escape Mrs. CleveS
land had on Thursday night, when She
went down to meet the president on his
return home. The driver drove To his
usual place on the side tracks, aud the
horses became frightened at an engine,
and the driver had hard work to qaiel
them. Even when the president crossed
the tracks and tried to get into the car
riage the horses behaved so badly that it
was some minutes before he could get in.
II the president wishes to risk his life
oI car tracks rather than pass through a
crowd of American citizens. OF course it
is nobody's business but his own, but Ger
tainly Mrs. CLEVELAND should not be placed
in such position.
