Matt Hunter continues to refuse to
work at the Fort Madison penitentiary.
Judge G.. S. Robinson of the board of
control has just returned from visit to
that institution and said yesterday that
Hunter steadily declines to work any at
all. His mother and sister repeatedly
have urged him to act in more sensible
manner but he seems insensible to their
pleas. 1t seems to be- case in which the
hatred Of labor surmounts and dominates
all other emotions in the soul of the
young man. He worked at the tailoring
trade about three days. 1t is easy, as
every one knows, for there is no regula-
tion to compel a convict to do any GER
tain amount of labor. But it was dis
tasteful, more SO than sitting in cell
alone day after day with only Bible
for companion and utterly deprived of
all human companionship.- Register
