MONEY TO BURN"

There was no doubt whatever that nammany Hall was well supplied with money during its campaign, and af- ter the election when the candidates filed their expense accounts it was shown that one of them at least gave nina thousand dollars to the general fund. It was the boast of some of the workers that Tammany "had money to burn''
 The boast was true, inasmuch as the jtreasurer or disbursing agent was unable to get rid of the funds on hand. As result the Tammamy ex- ecutive committee has appropriated twenty thousand dollars for the relief of the Cuban sick and wounded and twenty thousand dollars more for Hhe poor of New York county. Forty thousand dollars given away in half an hour is doing pretty we'll for Tam many, and it would be doing very we'll for am individual These gifts of thousands of dollars demonstrate that Tammany Hall has 1.-the call'' upon men who have money In addition, when some of the candidates them selves were able and willing to risk thousands of dollars in the lottery of an election, it is clear that they hoped, in the event of eleotion, to get it all back again with more than three per cent interest.
 If Tammany Hall had forty thou sand dollars left over it would be in teresItfng to know just how much was spent during the campaign. The amount doled out must have been way up into six figures and somebody must have supplied it. Thus it is still evident that the use of money in elections is rot an unknown factor in New York elections Tammany Hall in giving twenty thousand dollars to the poor was perhaps hopeful that some of its followers, who will not be able to get office, will thus indirectly
 receive some compensation
 When the new Tammany era be- | gins there will be a general scramble l to get back the money that was speni and that which was given away Tam
 many Hall has given the taxpayers a
 cue and the next administration Will i bear watching.

CONNECTS AT WORK.

A practical use of convict labor is now blsing made in Brooklyn, soon to become one of the boroughs of the Greater New York. The prisoners in the Kings county penitentiary are em- ployed on the roads and grounds of the Brooklyn Art museum and the city is securing a public improvement. that could not be had if the neces- sary money had to be paid out di- rectly. The city is to be the gainer and the cost of supporting the pris- oners is no way increased.
 The convict laborers do not come into conflict with free labor,' inas- much as the work could be done in no other way. The actual work, how ever, is but preliminary and prepares the way for other work to be done by skilled labor, yet the ultimate cost to the taxpayers is msasurably ree duced. The workers are well pleased with the opportunity to obtain fh-ssh air in the open and no difficulty is found in keeping them together.
 This sort of use of convict labor is one solution of the prison problem. There is a strong opposition to p.ison labor when it is directed in making goods that come into competition with the work of men who are free and honest. Prison labor has been prac- tically abolished in New York. Public improvements, however, can be pushed by means oi convict labor and no in jury is done to others. As a matter of fact convict labor does not com pete to an alarming extent with free labor. Every cent sawed in the care and support of convicts reduces the amount of money to be provided by the taxpayers. Prisoners should be made at least self supporting, if noth- ing else. It is unjust to honest men to be compelled to pay for the keep ing of dishonest and disorderly men. That is a point not to be dfsprov-d d.

THE COMING SOUTH,

Frederick Thompson, writing about
the Nashville Exposition in Leslie
Weekly, says:
The South to-day is entering an era
Of industrial development and progress,
and the object of the Exposition is to
attract the attention Of capital and
immigration to the vast resources of
Tennessee. A constantly increasing
volume of INN grafton has within the
past eighteen months been pouring into
Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia, from
the North Central States mainly, and
there is no reason to doubt that within
ten years large proportion of the
people residing IN th-se States will be
OF Northern birth and parentage
Happily, patriotism is no longer sec
tional. North, South, East and West
stand again united. Prejudices no
longer exist. Good feeling, fair mind
edness, and an earnest desire to learn
the true condition Of things now dis
tlngush a majority of the people North
and South. Asignorance is dissipa,ed
by more frequent intercourse and by
the distribution of literature descriptive
of the resources and social conditions
OF the South. lis climatic superiority,
varied capabilities, and striking ad-
vantages, the stream of good lmm-
grants is broadening and deepening,
and the country will soon rejoice in
an increased population and durable
prosperity.
Nashville, Athens of the South and
centennial city of 1897, has a popula-
ton OF one hundred thousand people.
1t is an ideal spot situated in the heart
of the Blue Grass region. A region
deservedly celebrated because Of hos
pltable homes and beautiful women.
Not only in 1897, but always, do
Nashvllle's gates stand wide open with
a hearty welcome and a cordial re-
Ceptlon.
