DISPOSITION OF coNvIcrs.
An Argument that Each County Should
Receive the Labor OF Its own.


The question OF disposing Of State con-
victs WIS being discussed yesterday by two
gentlemen who had evidently studied the
matter, Both of them favored the plan Of
each county caring for its own criminals,
Of high and low degree, the idea being IN
work them on public roads. Said one of
the gentlemen: "Public roads are the in
dex which point TO coun,ys general con
dition. II they are in bad shape, render
ing travel troublesome, and often danger
GUS, you may safely conclude that other
internal ailairs need attention. Property
ia valued ut n low figure, and difficult To
dispose OF Mt any price. With first class
roads, the reverse is the history. Public
roads are something even the best Of hired
labor does not care 10 be employed upon,
and will not do themselves or employer

the value Of property would increase fully

A GOAL DEALERS COMPLAINT.

Why He Can Soc Neither Reason Nor

''0f all the absurd acts Of any Iegisla-
ture, ancient or modern, that by the last

for this purpose, and the arrangement

In many cases the purchase from these
parties would not exceed 10 or 10 cents in
amount, and the quantity might reach
five barrels, just US the poor buyers

these small dealers In large quantities.
The special privilege tax, which raised the
total to ut least $3.50 per year, closed the
door OF these retail customers, and thus
deprived the heavy dealers Of good trade,
