Convict Labor.
Dec. 10, 1888.

1t is to be hoped that one of the first
measures our next legislature will bring
forward for their consideration will be the
providing of some steady employment for
the state convicts. 1t is burlesque
oRsthe wisdom of the statesmen of Mime
sofa, and a disgrace to the intense activity
OF her people, that her prison cOnvicts must
be kept in enforced idleness in order to
silence the crOakings of few business
firms. and the fault finding of few avari-
ciOuS mechanics, who want the earth and
are not satisfied without it in their profits.
To order all manufacturing stopped and
keep the able bodied cOnvicts in their cells,
eating the bread of idleness, and absolutely
suffering in health of body and mind for
the want of proper exercise that faithful
labor only gives, is an outrage on the con-
victs themselves, an outrage on the honest
hard working tax payers of the state, and a
shameful exhibition of the shallow brains
and lack of good common sense of our law.
makers and rulers. and the quintessence Of
legislative fOOlishness. New York has
tried the plan. to her shame and pecuniary
loss. and is beginning to reap the fruits of
the action of her law makers banishing
few years ago. work from her Sing Sing,
Clinton. DannemOra and Auburn. She is
confronted with a bill that reaches into the
thousands for the support of her idle hordes
in their narrow, il.-ventilated, disease
breeding cells. besides finding out that en-
forced idleness begetS sickness, and more
nursing and hospital labOrS are demanded
for them. TO say that state must not
employ its cOnvicts in any business and sell
their manufactures in any open market, be-
cause some of her citizens may be engaged,
or may want to engage. i'm that same busi-
ness is the merest twaddle and gibberiSh
of SOLDERING idiots and is the highest eXhi-
bition of asinine stupidity to enact law

to bear his load. If. therefore. you know
of sorrow which presses another's heart,
give expression to your sympathy with him,

Editor Prison Mirror and Follow Prisoners:
You have asked me to give you a sketch
of Sing Sing prison. and the Inhabitants
thereof naming the number of prisoners
here, charged with various crimes. and the
condition of the prisoners previous to their
incarceration, etc.. etc.
Let me first thank You in the name of
many prisoners here, for the copies of MIR
ROR, sent as samples.
am free to confess that your questions
are ''too high" for me to answer. even were
permitted to do so. That there are many
men and boys here. who are innocent of the
crimes with which they are charged by the
law, there is no shadow of doubt. Many
of these prisoners are devOut Christians,
having given their hearts to God, and are
trusting to His mercy for deliverance from
prison. They are reformed thoroughly,
having even abandoned the use of tobacco
in any shape. and the use of profane OF
blasphemous language, and all depravity.
Some of these men are condemned to die in
prison, so far as the laws of men are con-
cerned. They were dead, and the judge
sentenced them to prison "fOr life." and
they have received life from the hands of
God. being converted unto him, and are
abiding in him. Some of them would no
more think of taking the name of God in
vain. than they would of cutting off their
right hand. having learned to read and
write since they came to prison.
Here we have the most touching scenes
and examples ever placed within the sight
of men. Think of it, Over sixty men in
this prison sentenced for life." and the
total number of prisoners from 1,400. to

statement that the young Indians belong
ing to the Catholic societies are favorable
to the treaty and will sign. There are
several of these societies aud one of them
numbers 1l5. It's now claimed that the
Cat olc missionaries are favorable to the
treaty, aud that they have induced nearly
every Catholic Indian at the agency to
sign. The lndlans are reticent on tins
point, but Father Craft, who for several
years was located at Standing Rock. makes
no secret of his de ire to have the Indians
sign. The missionaries may swing the
Young bucks in o line but they cannot in

"John Cross entered the council holding
in his hands copy Of the proposed treaty
and opened the discussion by informing the
braves of the nature Of the document The
treaty was read in the I0dian language by
one of the young bucks who has attended
school, and he was frequently interrupted
by inqutsitive members Of the council who
desired points explained. Among the
chiefs there is no change of sentiment.
Rain-in-the-Face is disguised at the report
that the young Catholic Indians will Sign
and Sitting Bull, who refused to join the
church because it would necessitate the
discarding of one of mis- wives, is suspicious
that it may be true. although steadily de-
nylng it. There WIN be full attendance
to-day and the commissioners believe that
when they read the reports of the recent
success at the lower agencies the stubborn
chiefs will weaken. Dispatches received here
yesterday from the Cheyenne agency state
that White-Swa and his band, to the num-
ber of Is, had signed the bill. This

THAXTON'S DISASTER.
The Grand Jury Exonerates the Rail
road from Blame.

road from Blame.
LYKCHBURG, Va, July 29.-The grand
jury at Liberty, Va, has made report in
regard to the Norfolk and Western railroad
disaster at Thaxton completely generating
the railroad company from blame. The
report says: "After a careful examination
and investigation of all the facts in con-
nection with the disaster, we do not find
that any blame can be attached to the Nor
folk and Western Railroad Company
or any Of its officers or employees
We carefully investigated the con-
dition of the culvert where the wreck
occurred. The distance between Bufords-
vile and Liberty is twelve miles, and the
fast train usually runs it in Il minues, but
on the night of the accident the express was
% minutes running from Bufordsville to
the culvert, which will show that the fast
train was running at an unusually slow
rate of speed. This precautiOn was adopted
in consequence of information received at
Bufordsville that there were indications of
an unusually heavy rainfall down below.
RAINED IN SPOTS.
The rain was light at Bufordsville, in fact
the heavy rain extended only short dis
tance west of the cuIvert. But from that
point several miles down the mountain the
Idluldu W as UNUSUALLY uedNS III ldCO very
much heavier than any that can be recalled
by the oldest inhabtant. 1t was a perfect
water spout or cloud burst. The washOuts
and landslides on the sides of the
mountain caused by this rain are visible
from a long distance. While no one
can speak with certainty on this point, yet
from the testimony of experts, the track
above the culvert must have been intact
when the train came upon it. We believe,
therefore, that the officials of this road
exercised ell care and prudence in the run
ming of this train that could reasonably be
required of them and that the company is
not to blame for this terrible and lamenta-
bic disaster
