"RdTSING CAMP

When the Dallas News printed that
silly story from Austin that the free
grassers intended to c.pture the immi
grafton convention and converE it into q
political machine for the destruction Of
Ross administration, The News did a
very discreditable thing thst became ap-
parsnt to all men when Galveston Sc
lected free grass champion to read the
famous deep water resolutions. Then 1t
was that the only rabbit foot at the immi-
grafton convention became visible to the
naked eyes Of ell men.
Not satisfied with this exploit,
the News converted the recent meeting Of
the state executive committee into q
Coke Prohibition anti George CLARK at
fair, and now poses before the state as
the wa,chiul guardian Of Democratic vel
fsre.
Every member of the state executive
committee knows that the selection of
places at which to hold the Democratic
state conventions was made without refer
ence to Senator Coke or George Clark or
Prohibition. Senator Coke's chances
of reelection will not be affected
in any way and George Clsrk's can
didacy for delegate at lsrge to st. Louis
will not be affected in any way by the Sc
lection OF Fort Worth.
1t is impossible to comprehend why the
News gives publicity to SUCH canards as
that Of the free grass capture of the i'm
migration convention and such perver-
sions of the significance of locating state
conventions, unless that paper wants to
raise q rumpus inside the Democratic
party

An episode occurred recently at Hsr-

deal Of comment, and which caused no
little amusement. Among the premiums
offered for various attainments the Bow.
doin prizes for English dissertations take
first rank. They range from 800 down,
and are accessible to all students Of
all ranks. Now there is an institution
for young ladies called the "annex,"
which, though bearing some relation to
the university, has no organic connection
with 1t, and its students are not entitled
to compete for the Bowdoin prizes But
s friend of the young ladies has offered
smaller prizes for dissertations by them,
embracing the came range of subjects
and to be awarded by the same judges.
This year, by some mistake, the papers
al went in together, with nothing to dis.

THE CONVICT QUESTION ~ Ar
KANSAS.

KANSAS.
Governor Hughes and the Arkansas
penite ntiary board have Investigated the
treatment Of leased convics ct the Ceal
Hill mines and made q report on their
findings. Their report charges violation
of law and OF the rules printed by the
bosrd On the part Of the lessees, who have
employed brutal and inhuman wardens to
take charge Of the convicts. The charges
Of cruelty made against these wardens Is
sustained and the lessees held respons:-
bic for it By the board. In view CT these
facts the board ordered convicts at once
to be returned to the penitentiary, and
refused permission to work the mines
near Cosl Hill, or in mines, or like dan
gerous place; or anywhere beyond the
immediate supervision of penitentiary
physicians or some physician appointed
by him with approval of the board. II is
ordered that the chief warden Of the pen
ltentiary be at once dismissed from his
position and not hereafter retained by les
sees in any service whatever, and that
subject to the boards approval, another
warden be appointed.
This is all very well, as far as It goes.
The evil Of the lease system ID coexistent
with the system itself, and to obviate the
evil the system must be abolished.
And in the disgrace OF sister state
may Texas fiud q lesson that will be bene-
fetal to herself.
