every year because the barn roof has
not been repaired, the horse fork is not
in working order, and the mows are
not ready, and everything has to be
done or left undone on the morning of

stored.

OUR OLD JAIL.

Considerable comment has been
made in the last few days in regard to
the condition of the county Jail. This
has been popular theme for discus
sion for years past, and every grand
jury has religiously inserted clause
condemning it's unsafe and unhealthy
condition, and there the matter drop
ped until the next session of this
august body. There has been one ex-
ception, and that was when Sage, the
noted forger, escaped. We were all
Justly indignant that the building was
not more secure, and the matter was
on every ones lips for awhile, then it
dropped again, only to be stirred up
last Sunday morning, when the news OF
Eorwitz's escape was spread around,
but we venture to say that unless some
decisive action is taken at once the
matter will be soon forgotten until
some other noted prisoner takes leg
bail.
Another thing TO be considered is its
unhealthy condition. We do not ad-
vocate making the institution a palace
which would be a haven of rest for
every tramp during the cold winter
months, but we do most seriously urge
that the Jail be both safe and healthy.
This can be done at a moderate ex-
pense, and while it would increase
xes slightly, which is very distasteful
these hard times, yet it is poor economy
to save at the spigot and waste
al the bung-hole 1t is not our desire
to criticise the County Commissioners
for not making the necessary repairs,
for we believe that if they were sus-
t.ined by healthy public sentiment
the work would have been done long
ago. The people to blame are the
taxpayers themselves.
The escape of Horwitz has made
Hartford county the laughing stock of
the State. Indeed it has been said in
Baltimore that subscription is being
taken up to buy the Sheriff dry
goods box to keep the most desperate
prisoners in, so they would be more
secure. Ofcourse this is mere twaddle,
but it does not seem fair that Il county
which stands as well as ours in so
many ways should be so far behind in
the matter of a Jail, especially as we
seem to be called upon SO often to cap
ture noted criminals which have
eluded the officers of other States,
only to fall into the traps set by our
wary officials.

Two Weeks in Florida.

To see Florida is Il pleasure; 10 visit it is 4
privilege: but TO spend fortnight within its
borders is an epoch. There is great sat STAG
ton in witnessing the ripcning of tropical
fruits in their own native land, and II peculiar
Joy in wrestling with old oceans waves when
lakes and rivers at home arc icebOund. One
appreciates the wonders of modern invention
and railroad development upon leaving the
neighborhood of good skating one day and
finding himself in the vicinity of good bathing
the next. Yet this can be done, and the man
who prefers hunting and fishing will take his
accoutrements along with him, for Florida eX-

HARD TIMES.

President-elect Mckinley, when he
takes his seat in the White House on
the 4th of March next, will find a most
difficult problem staring him in the
face, and that is the fultiIlment of the
anti-election pledges made by himself
and his supporters in regard to the
present stagnation in business.
They promised us that wave of
prosperity would sweep over the coun-
try as soon as confidence in the
government was restored, and that as
soon as it was demonstrated that the
entire management of the government
would be in the hands of the Republi-
can party, the moneyed interest of the
country would loosen its purse strings
and the wilderness would blossom like
the rose.
Now suppose we glance back into
the pages of history rs far as Novem
Der 3D.. On that day William McKin
ley with Republican Congress was,
by an overwhelming majority, declar
Ell the choice of the people. Accord
ir.g to their promises, that wave of
prosperity was due here on November
4. Did it come? Let us see. For
handy reference suppose we take the
report of any mercantile agency and
See how many failures there were be-
tween that time and now. They were
greater than ever known in the same
length of time. Suppose we ask
Comptroller Eckels how many banks
have failed in the meantime, and he
" Ill tell US there were more suspen
81 1ns in one State alone than in all the
[ nited States the preceding year.
Now how about the farmer? He
was the man every one was trying to
help. Let's see what the wave has
done for MIN. They will point with
Pride to dollar wheat. That sounds
we'll but suppose we examine closer
and see who has the wheat. The
answer is easy; nine-tenths of the
wheat crop was sold before the rise in
prices, and the speculator, who of
necessity is a rich man, made all the
profit.
The same way with the Gamer, his
fruit was all sold at low prices and
now while in second hands the market
is much firmer.
