The Convict Lease.

The Convict Lease System is now
the attention of the press
and the people of the state. and
among the interviews of.prominent
citizens as to the advisability OF its
continuance or discoutinuance
re divided.
the best solution of the vexed
problem, to our idea, is that given
by Mr.. Huff of Macon. That able
bodied convicts should be put to
work building public roads, End
the women, children, and the men
who cannot be classed as able bod
led hands, should be put to work
on asupPly farm FOR the sustenance
ofthem8elyes and those engaged in
making the public roads. In some
counties this plan would work adj
mirably, and the result would be
infinitely better roads, the expense
and trouble Of the present system
Ct road working averted, and the
ends of justice met in more hu-
name manner than that at mrs sent
employed.
1t IS needless to argue that it IS
unjust to honest, trce labor, to
bring this class into competition
with them. Large corporations
who are able to employ all the con-
yic,s Of the State, are in position
! 10 underbid smaller contractors, and
many honest laborers, are thereby
thrown out Of employment, or work
at wages scarcely self,sustaining.-
We would supplement MIR. HuA's
views by adding that, the county
. Commissioners be empowered to
: lease them to some other county in
the Judicial Circuit in which the
sentence was passed, where there
were not sufficient number to ius-
thy the employment of guards.
There are some counties where tn,
number Of convicts would not be
l sufficient for the proper working o
] roads, and in this case it would
be well enough to let the adjoining
OF some other county in the circui
] ha e them, or,Wb'ch would perhap
K be better still, let the county hay,

have first choicc,and have all tn,

THE IRON KING.

my dear, pray what shall we do?'
! Once asked my loving wife;
We have no cook, you know, now
To stem the kitchens strife:
This STOPPING and cooking
Over fires large and hot,
Is perplexing and vexing,
Oh! who has ielt It not?
The labors. of the kitchen,
Since our negroes went away,
W rehoth toilsome and lrksome.
And still are so to-day;
Can't you tighten and bri -hten
This load of heavy care,
That distresses, Expresses,
And drives me to despair"
Said I, I'm go to FULroN's
And there a stove I'll buy,
No matter what the price is,
An IRoN KING III try;
Then roasting and toasting,
VIII not wear away your life,
But pleasure and treasure

So down to town ] hurried,
Almost as quick as thought,
And there from JoHN A. FULroN.
An IRON KING | bought:
And now broiiing and boiling
Are the sweetest works in life,
No more caring, despairing,
DistresSes now my wife.
Farewell, We dirty negroes,
I'm Independent now,
For wife can do the cooking,
With smile upon her brow;
No whining, no repiniug,
No angry threatenings ring,
But my meals now, reveal now,
How cheap is Iron KING,

I sat al the window in the twilights so gray;
AIy thoughts? They were thoughts OF the far,
far away;
In my ear there was murmured this sad refrain:
''Never again; never, no, never again.
Up the stairway the voices of children float,
A boys glad shout and girls sweet note;
But mingling with this comes the sad refrain:
''Never again; never, no, never again.
From the far shadowy land dim echoes resound,
My heart trembles now in happy rebound;
A loved voice seems knocking this sad refrain:
''Never again; never, no, never again.
All twas only an echo from the long buried past,
A whisper of hope over dark pathway cast,
That dear voice is stiI oh! the sad, sad refrain,
Never again; no, never again.
A rift in the clouds of twilight SO gray,
See! a heavenly smile in the SUMS parting ray,
In my ear there is whispered this glad refrain,
ut cometh again. yes cometh again.
reach out my arms the children to greet,
The true love of childhood enraptured to meet,
And pressing them close, breathe this glad re-
frain
SIT cometh again, yes cometh again.
Soft eyes with questioning glances bright
Look up into mine, did they hear Alright?
closely enfold them, yes, it's the glad refrain
cit cometh again, yes cometh again.
Yes, dear ones, ye know not the soul-racking
pain
Of Joy fed forever, no love could detain;
Now loving and loved, oh! gladstone refrain

TIE RAlLR0AD ISSUE

The PugTOssment, by a large majority
/ in the lower house of the state legisla-
ture, of the bin providing for a state
railway commission presages its final
! adoption by the house and severe con-
! test over it in the senate There can be
no doubt that many members in both
houses have been brought to favor
the measure 10y the pressure of the
idea that the public demands
a commission. 1t is not possible to de-
termine the number of those who are
committed 10y individual conviction TO
the theory of the proposed law, but it is
significant that the idea that has been
kept constantly in the foreground by It's
advocates is that the body of the people
are clamoring for railway commission,
and that the voice of the people should
not be ignored.
There are those who believe in rigid
supervision Of railroad management by
the state who viii question the wisdom
of hastily adopting upon such grounds

would protect the people from extor-
ton aud the railroads from con-
fiscation-have looked in vain in the de-
bates upon the subject that have been re-
ported from Austin, for sound, equitable
and business reasons for the creation of

THE North Texas Farmer says:
"Would it not be better for the legisla-
ture to create the Office of state stenog-
rapher, and make it his duty to impart
the science to the district clerks rather
than have one appointed for each Judicial
district? said officer could educate the
district clerks in the big counties first
and district clerks should pay his mileage
and per diem. - The Paris paper must
surely be joking. 1t IS uncomfortable
that such suggestion could be seriously
made in this day and generation.
