Col. InqersoIi 10 Warden BrockWay.

The brutal treatment of prisoners by Il.
r. Brockwsy, the superintendent of the
Elmira, On. " Reformatory, has, during
the past two years becGm, matter of com
mon knowledge and comment throughout
the Union. 1t seems amazing that such man
should be permitted to remain in Office after
the shocking revelations of his inhumanity
that have paen made by witnesses of unim-
peachlble character, including Judge of
a high court in Buffalo, al old and respect
ed priest of Eimira, a former principal
keeper of the Elmira Reformatory and
many others. Such a course simply serves
to show how insolent of public opinion,
Tamnany hail mas grown since it came
into possession of the political ma
chinery of New York state. In recent
issue of the New York World, Col. Il. G.
Ingersoll pays his respects TO Warden
Brockway with characteristic vigor. He
says:
Mr.. Brockway, according to his own tes-
timony, is simply savage He belongs to
the Dark Ages-to the lnquisition, to the
torture-chamber, and he needs reforming
more than any prisoner under bis control
To put any man within his power is in it
self n crime. Mr.. Brockway is believer
ia cruelty-an apostle of brutality. He
beats and bruises flesh to satisfy his con-
scence-his sense of duty. He Yields the
club himself because he enjoys the agony
he intlicts.
When poor wretch having reached
the limit of endurance, submits or becomes
unconscious, he is regarded as reformed.
During the remainder of his term he
trembles and obeys. But he is not re-
formed. In his heart is the flame of
hatred, the desire for revenge; and he re-
turns to society far worse than when he
entered the prison.
Mr. Brockwav should either be removed
or locked up, and the Elmira Reformatory
should be superintendent by some civilized
man-some man with brain enough to
know and heart enough to feel.
| do not believe that one brute by whip
ping, beating and decorating the flesh of
another can reform him. The lash will
neither develop the brain nor cultivate the
heart. There should be no bruising, o
soaring Of the body in families, in schools,
in reformatories, or prisons. A civilized
man does not believe in the methods of
savagery. Brutality has been tried for
thousands of years and through all these
years it has been failure.
This language has the spirit of true hu-
mainly, and should go to assist in securing
the removal of prison official, whose
methods of discipline, as described by re-
liable witnesses, beloog wholly to the Dark
Ages.

Red haired negroes are scarce enough,
but an equally curious freak of nature is
seen in the Griegos Indians, near the City
of Mexico. They are light complexioncd,
and the majority have blue eyes and light
hair. They dress principally in two shades
of blue, and their clothing is good and
well made and generally ornamented with
the bead and silk embroidery of which In
dians are so fond. Their houses are better
built and furnished than is usual among
Indians, and many have pianos and other
musical Instruments, upon which they
play with considerable skill. These Grie-
Cos have no commercial or social con-
nections with other tribes, holding aloof
from even those who live at the base Of
tho mountain on which the village is sit
uated. They raise their own food do their
own manufacturing, have their own
schools, churches and social institutions,
and seldom, or never, marry outside their
own tribe. There is said to be another
tribe of blue eyed, fair haired Indians,
who have the appearance of Germans, liv-
ing in the Sierra Madre mountains in the
state of Durango.

shc party in power. 1t is fer them to de-
eide. first of all, whether they want II
policy which prostratcs the general bust
ness OF the country, or which SO stimulates
it that in October, 1892, it was greater
than ever before. Next, they have to con
slider whether. irrespective of the general
progress, they desire to have more people
driven into agriculture, and SO into the
production of cotton and wheat, by the
closing of many hundred factories and
mills. furnaces and mines, which protcc
tive duties have made it possible to open
and keep in operation. The farmers, if
they see things rightly, would feel that it
is of the last Importance to them that the
number of persons who consume their
products, being engaged in other avoca-
tions, shall increase faster than the num-
Der or products of farms. Finally, they
have to consider whether the encourage
ment which the protective tariff gives to
manufacturers of cotton and wool, leather
and other products which come originally
from the farms, is not essential to the
of an adequate market for
those products.-[NewY York Tribune.

THE al" CAR HOG.
He Was For Once Sat Upon to a Consider
able Extent.

The L car hog is he who tries to occupy,
to the exclusion of any one else, one of the
cross seats in the center of the car. he
utterly ignores the fact that these seats
are 'built for two and is crusty,
crowding neighbor to any one who has the
audacity to sis beside him. Regular pa
irons of the l. roads know this hog
though his name is almost legion-and
usually give him a wide berth.
On recent afternoon just as an up town
train was leaving Twelfth street, young
man entered one of the cars. He saunter-
cd through and found that the only vacant
place was beside one of these typical hogs
in a cross seat. The young man paused
and looked at the other man, but the hog
sat souarely in the center of the seat and
looked unconcerncdly out of the window.
So the young man, rather than take the
crowding which the hog would be sure to
infiict, passed through and stood on the
platform.
When the train stopped at Eighteenth
street, the only passenger to get aboard
was rather rusty looking man who GER
tainly weighed over 800 pounds The
young man was quick witted enough to
see his chance.
10 you WdLU W tdIl 1lStll q uoiAoA'
he demanded
Sure
"Scc that man in the cross seat-the
only one who is sitting alone?'
II see him."
"Well, take this half dollar and then go
and sit in the same seat with him. Don
be afraid of crowding him."
The rusty looking individual obeyed.
His more than 800 pounds of tissue forced
the glaring hog to the window. He was
crushed and squeezed by his bulky neigh
Dor. The hog began to fume, fuss and
frown, but said never word though he
was now able to occupy but a quarter of
the seat. The other passengers were quick
to note the discomforture of the hog and
grinned their appreciation. The hog per-
ceived this and fumed some more. The
only one who appeared utterly unconscious
was the rusty looking man who weighed
over 800.
But the L car hog never admits defeat
This specimen didn't. He stuck to his
now narrow perch even after there We're
other seats empty, and so did the fat man.
They rode to Forty-third street together,
and it was very bad half hour for the
hog.
The young man who had instigated it
all got off at Thirty ninth street, and q
seraphic smile was ON his face.-Chicago
Times.

The lowest prices ever known for wheat
and cotton affect the prosperity of multi
tudes. Option prices for both products
have gone lower the past week than ever
before, though the cash price of wheat was
lower in July, and the cash price of cotton
is only as low as it was in March,
1892. Back in 1S45-1S49 some records
say that cotton sold for to 6 cents
a pound, bnt some of the best finan-
cial publications of that day give no
such prices, and there is SO much uncer-
tainty about classifications and quotations
then that the record since 1S49 may be
fairly taken as the only one worth consid-
ering. 1t embraces no quotation lower
than the present A crop far beyond the
worlds consumption of American cotton
did indeed cause very low prices in 1892.
but even at the beginning of this crop
year prices as low as realized, with the size
of the coming crop yet undetermined. At
10 cents pound n crop of 100000 bales
would be worth about $3.50, 900, 900, but at
current prices it is worth $3.50, 100000 less.
AT 81 a bushel a crop of 500, 900 bushels
of wheat would be worth $215, 0O0, 900 more
than the sum quantity at present New
York prices.
The general condition of business OBJ
viously affects the prices of these staples to
some extent. Democratic change has
made business bad, and that inevitably
makes prices lower than they otherwise
might be. When millions of working
people are obliged to buy less food and
clothing, or less expensive articles, it can
not be expected that prices of wheat or
cotton will be strongly supported. The
obvious difficulty is that there are too
large crops, but the distinct tendency, if
not the declared purpose of the Demo
cratic party and its policy is to turn the
people out of some branches of manufac-
ture and thus to increase the number Of
those who are obliged to depend upon
agriculture and particularly upon wheat
and cotton growing for livelihood. Thus
in many ways the Democratic policy tends
very directly to depress prices of the great
farm staples, both by stimulating larger
production of them and by lessening the
domestic demand for consumption.
The cotton producers of the south, as
well as the wool producers of the north,
feel the effects of prolonged depression
in manufactures. Wool sold last July at
the lowest average ever known in this
country, and although there was a little
recovery in August the average is now less
than 5 per cent above the lowest. The con-
sumption in this country does not yet ap-
pear to be more than 60 per cent of the full
consumption attained in 1892, and the fall
of IS per cent in average price is natural
result. The decrease in consumption of
cotton is not relatively as great, nor is it
exactly known, but it is certainly great
enough to account for much decline in
price irrespective of the production.
The growers of cotton. and whea. have
reason to think of these things seriously
this year. because it rests largely with
them to uphold or to defeat the policy Of

Carl Hogenbeck, the celebrated dealer in

source of wonder to the thousands who WIS.,
tied it, is a man of philanthropic spirit. In
his physical appearance he is said to be

also resembles the martyr President in his
kindlinets of heart. Mr.. Hogenbeck is just
now devoting his energies to teaching peo-
pie how to build Alright the homes of wild
beasts, so as to keep them healthy and
make them comfortable. Unquestionably
much suffering has been occasioned
t. the beasts kept in confinement,
even il large geological gardens
where large sums have been expended
in their care, on account of ignor-
auce on this point. Mr.. Hogenbeck is now

Arrests of Russian Mendicants.

On an average about $50 mendicants OF
both sexes are every week arrested in the
streets of St. Petersburg, while in Mos
COW, Odessa, Warsaw and other poIsllous
ccntcrs tho numbers taken by the police
arc proportionatcly large. One reason for
the existence of so numerous a swarm OF
vagabonds is to be found in the indorse-
ments in well known red stamped initialsoi
the passports of all persons who have suffer.
cd terms of imprisonment, no matter how
short those periods may have been or for
what trivial offcnscs they may have hcer
committed. The universal passport system
which obtains in Russia makes these en-
dorscments more prohibitory for the hold
crs than actual police surveillance or than
the ticket of leave system in England. The
passport must always be produced, and in
the case of domestic servants, male and
female laborers, etc, the passports re
main in the employers keeping so long as
the servants are retained. The raided
mendicants are returned to their birth
places or rccommittcd. Numbers of them
are time after time expelled from their
native communes, return to the large
towns and are again committed to prison,
in which they spend the greater part of
their lives.-London News.

PRESS COMMENTS.
The Ballot Law.
Fairfield Journal.

Many votes being thrown out at the last
election, there is much agitation about
changing the form of voting. Now we
think with the secretary of the State, that
there was no need of throwing out many
of these votes. 1t was not done for party
purposes, but simply to comply with the
letter of the law, which calls for the scratch
ing out of name in straight ticket,
which you do not wish to vote for, and
that when you put a "sticker" on the vote
you must not put it over name, but
below it, scratching out the name above
you do not wish to vote for. The
people are not used to the system yet,
but we believe that if voter neglects to
comply with the letter of the law, due al
lowance should be made by the men who
count them, for the interest of the voter.
By looking at most votes that were marked
at all, it can be easily seen what men the
voter intended to vote for. With the rigid
enforcement of the letter of the law, even,
we believe that by the time the people have
voted few times, 'here will be practically
no mistakes. When we get it simple let it
alone, and we believe it is very simple now.
Don't monkey with the ballot
