What a Prisoner Knows About the
BusybOdy.

One of the staggering mysteries OF life is
sble to attend properly to our own affairs,
there are great many people who seem to
devote most of their waking hours to the
affairs of other folks. They appear to take
care of their duties after a fashion. but how
they do it is more than any man can say,
Tor they seem to work for, or about other
people all day.
Sometimes we hear of smart work done
by detectives, but one North American
busybody can be safely relied upon to find
out more about mans private affairs in a
single day than crack detective would in
a year. and without charge for his services.
The detective prizes INTO affairs because it is
his business; the busybody does it for fun
or malice. What detective finds out and
tells will often send guilty man to prison,
but the busybody's talk will drive an inno-
cent man to the madhouSe There are
men who seem to have such hearty liking
Tor you that you cannot help turning your
heart inside out before them; in perfect con-
tidence, of course. Before twenty four
hours everything the busybody saw or
heard, has been displayed with decorations
and embellishments to everybody he knows;
but in perfect confidence. of course.
The old adage that Birds of feather
iiock together" does not hold good regard
ing busybOdieS. for they are found among
every class OF human beings. from the loafer
in the streets, to the men who are intrusted
with the management OF nations. Never
theless they are all alike on the main ques-
ton; they never fail to make trouble for
those they talk about. A curious fact
about them is that they always profess to
be setting things right and to be reformerS
Their idea of reform differs very little from
that of the small boy. who brings about a
change in everything by smashing it to
pieces, and then letting the pieces take care
OF themselves. All the great religious wars
that made Europe graveyard two or three
hundred years ago, were started by busy
bodies who had not enough religion
between them to keep one man to the duty
OF telling the truth, and paying for what he
purchased. 1t is not always easy to dis
tinguish the busybody at sight; the bible
says that even satan appeared as an angel
of light, so it is natural that his followers
should take pattern of the old man.
The prison mirror. [volume] (Stillwater, Minn.) 1887-1894, 1888-10-10

1t may be very interesting to hear all
about the private character of your neigh
Dor, or your employers, or your guards,
but it you open your mouth about your
own. you will soon learn that fools are pun
ished according to their folly. and that no
amount OF crying will put split milk back
into the pitcher. In olden times people
used to discourage buSybodieS by looping off
their heads, or banishing them to lands
where the natives were cannihals. and re-
garded all strangers as heaven-Sent meat
for the local butcher shop. Neither of these
plans would work now, for there are not
enough caunibalS to 20 around. nor enough
headsmen who would be willing to work
double time, as they would have to do.
But the busybOdy can be boycot:ed--ieft
alone entirely. and more terrible punish
ment has not entered into the heart OF men
to conceive. Some one has said of one
class of busybodies that. His idea of hell
is place where man can not meddle with
any ones affairs but his OWL" The same
rule applies to all the species. whether high
or low, hateful or seemingly nice no one
can have any communication with the
creature without being the worse for it..
and if the heart trembles at the thought of
snubbing a fellow being. he who only
talks too much." remember that The re-
ceiver is as bad as the thief" G. NJ.

" "TWO SINNERS.,'

There was man. it said time,
Who went astray in his youthful prime.
Can the brain keep cool and the heart keep quiet
When the blood is river that's running riot?
And the boys will be boys the old folks say.
And the mans the better who's had his day.
The sinner reformed, and the preacher told
of the prodigal son who came back to the fold
And the christian people threw open the door
With a warmer welcome than ever before.
Wealth and honor were his to command
And spotle woman gave him her hand,
And the world strewed their pathway with flowers
a-blOOm
Crying, "God bless lady and God bless groom!''
There was maiden went astray,
In the golden dawn of lifes young day
She had more of passion and heart than head,
And she followed blindly where fond love led,
And love unchecked is a dangerous guide
TO wander at will by fair girls side.
The woman repented and turned from SIM
But no door opened to let her in;
The preacher prayed that she might be forgiven,
But told her to look for mercy i'll heaven.
For this is the law of the earth, we know,
That the woman is scOrned, while the man may go.
A brave man welded her. after all

More OH That QEsliOn.

Tammany is still open to conviction.
That is right. we should always be open TO
conviction on any subject. / don't know
whether will be able to change his views
or not, but at all events | am going to say
few words on the great question that is
causing so much turmoil at present, in our
otherwise quiet colony.
Which system is of the most benefit to the
state pecuniarily? The contract system ac-
cording to Commissioner Wright's report
for 1886; for we will not discuss the bar
barous lease system which is pure profit
Which is the best for the free laborers?
My dear friends l.. NJ, G. E.. Tammany,
and S. b. t.. why not emulate them in
their dealings with us. by not giving them
a thought? 1t was question between the
labOring man, the contract system and the
state: why not make it a question between
the convict, the contract system and the
state? You will say. "Oh, the laboring
class will be heardw Well, let them talk
for themselves. When the contract system
was abolished in this state, the labOring
classes did not take the convict into account.
Don't class this as a rash statement; leave
ii to your knowledge of the facts. Well
then, the laborng class is disposed of, so
far as this paper is concerned. and now we
will deal with the question financially
AS we find by the commissioners report,
the contract system is the best for the state,
how does it effect the convict? Under it in
this state he got nine cents day; the state
allowed him this, but stopped it when the
system was abolished. Under what system
will the convict get more than nine cents a
day? 'Oh, under the new plan we are go
ing to have. the convict will be paid regular
wages" Il quote from the tenor, if not
the exact language of your writings.) Well,
my friends, life is sweet, but | for one,
positively decline to live that long. l am
not married man. but my grandchildren
may live long enough to vote for measure
that will pay cOnvicts wages. No, you will
not see any system come in here that will pay
you better than the contract did One great
trouble, it seems to me, is, that you forget
you are cOnvctS, or at least, what convict
is My dear friends, convict is no&better
than any other man. l expect, in the near
future, to hear some one advocating a
scheme to pension all ex- cOnvictS: give them
ten thousand or so year for keeping out of
prison.
| have no statistics to retute any of the
arguments advanced by the prosecution; nor
do l want any, for figures DO sometimes
lie, and very small amount of personal
observation is worth very large amount of
theory cleaned from the writings of men
who can only have had a superficial view
