As to Potato Growing.

Says the St. Louis Post-Dispatch: Potato growing. it appears, can be ma dc very profitable in some sections of the country, especially where two crops can be grown on the same ground the same season. Down at Fort Smith. Ark, the farmers made a great deal of money this year raising spuds. The first crop was early in market and sold by car load on track at their homes at sixty cents to seventy cents per bushel. Now the second crop from the same fields is maturing, and the fortunate cultivators are able to SC. cure much better prices than they did for the early summer crop. They are holding the second yield at eighty five cents and ninety cents per bushel. and securing these figures in the sur rounding country. Thus it will be seen that the country down there is a sort of paradise for potato growing, but the same opportunities doubtless exist over a wide area elsewhere The situation in Arkansas affords food for reflection for the thousands of northern farmers engaged in the business who can not at best raise over one crop yearly. and that must find market at lower fig. ures than either of those aised by the Arkansas man commands.

An Arkansas state Railroad.

The superintendent of the pcniten- tiary, W. r.. Connell. will recommend in his report to the legislature that the convicts be used next year in building a railroad for the state. He says the state could buy a farm and place the old men and boy convicts upon it and raise sufficient bread and meat for the maintenance of the convicts while building railroad. and the road when completed would be source of revenue to the state. He suggests road run ming west from Little Rock through Perryville. Bonneville and west until it taps the Frisco south of Fort Smith.

The Convict Lease system.

The governor has pardoned Washing ton Lindsey. colored boy who was convicted in the Little Rock police court July 10, 1893. on six counts of petit larceny, and sentenced to pay fine or s100 and to ninety days imprisonment in each case. With the costs, which amounted to s112.75, making S2l2.75 and $40 days in all, it would take him 1905 days at fifty cents day, to serve his sentence, or nearly six years, as Sundays are not counted. The pardon was granted on the grounds that the boy had already been punished enough for the crime.
 STRONG WORDS.
 "This convict lease system is sys- tenn of slavery and disgrace to our civilization" said Gov. Fishback. Ut should be abolished, and shall recon mend its abolition in my message to the legislature.
 ''I knew Lindsey. He used to live at Fort Smith, and was arrested soon after his arrival in Little Rock on the charge of petit larceny. He wrote me let ter, and upon investigation pardoned him on my own motion, and will pardon every similar case that comes under my notice. The most trival cases are divided up into numerous counts, and the prosecuting attorney gets S10 for each conviction.
