THE CONVICT SYSTEM.

While the convict lease system IS
being discussed, one thing above all
others should be considered. Wheth
er or not the States prisoners (crImi-
paIs) are leased out or used otherwise,
every cent that they cam above the
Coz of maintaining them, should go
to the support of their needy wives
and children. il any they have. 1t is
an outrage upon civilization for the
State to rob women and children,
even by the labar OF criminals.-Te1-
arkana DEMOCRAT.
This is one Of the hard features OF
the convict system, which, when ad-
ministered with all the moral philo~-
ophy possible, is full enough OF hard
ship and suffering. How often We
hsve seen this disgraceful fact de-
monstrated that the age is unworthy
Of itself in nothing so much as in the
treatment Of its criminalsl The
courts grind out convicts TO avenge
the infraction of some law; and being
thrust into the penilentiaries, the
state is glad to rid herself OF the re-
sponsibility for the convicts' physic-
al welfare by hiring their labor TO
some corporation, to which they are
nothing more than machines for
coming profit
In the mean time the families OF
these convicts, unusually low in the
moral, intellectual and financial
scales, are left destitute, the sons OF.
ten to become thieves and robbers
and the daughters prostitutes. Is
there no relief for this hard condition
of things so often witnessed in the
administration of the criminal laws
Of this country2 The poverty of the
family can never be pleaded as de
fense for crime, and yet practical
philantrophy must find some means
IN protect the innocent from the pun
ishmcnt of the guilty, and to prevent
the punishment Of crime from fore,
