THE PENuTENTIARY.

The number of improbable convicts
in the penitentiary centres public in
terest in the necessity of enlarging the
operations Of that institution
This can only be done by proper
appropriation on the part of the Gene
ra! Assembly
The limit Of operation is too cir
cimscribed TO enable the institution
to be as profitable to the State as it
shOuld be
This then, is one Of the important
problems which confront our law
makers for solution.
The best source of information for
n basis from which TO take a safe
reckoning is the reports of the differ
er> boards Of directors Of the peniten.
tisry for the past several years.
BY comparing these reports it will
be .een that under the present manage
ment the State has reaped larger
profit than ever before; and this fact
alone gives weight to the erecommenda-
tions m ,de by the present board.
We hope soon to examine several
of these reports carefully and to pub
lish tabulated statement in simpli-
fed form, in order that our readers
may sec what has been done and
thereby conclude what is best to be
done for the future.

THE newspapers of the South are
now discussing the cotton acreage.
The farmer is advised not to allow the
recent advance in the price of cotton
to persuade him to increase his acre.

New Orleans Times Democrat in dis.
cussing the matter, "that some means
will be found to bring the matter to
the attention Of the farmers before the
planting is completed. The South
narrowly escaped serious financial diff

depressed condition of cotton. 1t will
soon drift back to a big acreage. The
matter must be brought before the
farmers in an impressive and convinc.

The vote in the United States Sen.
ate on the motion to take up the
Sherman silver act is not regarded as
a test vote. Many Democrats as well
as Republicans, thought it too late
now to effect anything, in view of an
announced purpose Of some Senators
to kill the bill by talking. 1t is hoped
that an extra session of Congress will
be convened at as early day as prac.
ticable; and that all such questions
upon which the people expect legisla
ton will be promptly met and as
promptly settled.

Senator to-day. He received seventy votes,
this being four more than was necessary to

vote. Only one senator, North, explained
his vote. When the result of the ballot had
been declared Senator Taft, republican,
moved to adjourn. This was taken as an in
suit to the senator-elect and Taft was roundly
Kissed. Church Howe, republican. sprang
to his feet and made strong speech in favor
of the courtesy to Allen and the honor of
state. A committee was appointed to escort
Mr.. Allen to the hall He came and made a
brief speech in which he promised conserva-
tive action. Further than this he made no
promises. All the democrats were congratu-
lated by the independents as soon as the vote
