tons. The county. or possibly the village
of Rockville, might well go to considerable
expense to remedy this menacing evil, which
smells aloud.
We found in the prison yard a pole.
which we learn aided one prisoner to
escape. and We insist that everything un-
necessary be removed from this yard In
one corner was a heap of coal ashes in
another pile OF many tons Of hard coal
We suggest heavier and closer-meshed
cross-bars for the cell windows over the
prison yard; also metal awning or shield,

dows, making escape more difficult.
I'VE find inside the most meager arrange
ments for feeding the prisoners. and the
food We saw, as prepared, was unfit for
any one. The bedding was filthy and en-
urely inadequate The prisoners were
crowded. four and five together, In very
small cells, which we consider most insani-
tary. and liable to produce tuberculosis,
diphtheria and other diseases We consider
1t most debasing to the prisoners to be
treated this way"
In the circuit court here yesterday James
Gray. colored. was convicted on an fndict-
ment charging him with grand larceny, and
he was sentenced to a term of two years in
the house of correction. 1t was found that
while in the employ of w. c. Watkins, a
farmer who resides near Rockville, the de-
PENDANT picked UP about $40 that Mr.. Wat
kins dropped on the farm.

What China Must Do.

Under these circumstances" continues
this wise old woman 1--WE can but consider
carefully the form of government best suit
ed to the needs Of: the. time, and adopt a
constitutional policy in. which the supreme
authority shall be vested in the crown and
all questions Of government shall be con-
sidered by a popular assembly.
These are the foundation principles,
yet the people are not properly equipped
with the necessary knowledge.
I'VE must extend education;
I'VE must improve our military system;
I'VE must establish q police force
throughout the empire: .-
I'VE must cause the gentry and the peo-
pie to thoroughly understand political af-
fairs and thus, by such preparation, lay the
foundation OF constitutional government.
:, Let the ministers and officials throughout
the entire empire give their earnest at
tention to this. so that In a few years we
can adopt q satisfactory form of constitul
tional government as well as fix q daAe for
putting 1t into operation. That date will
depend uDon the rate OF progress made.

ert +. westcott, en executor OF the
estate of John II. Paul. who had a
contract under which he bought
great quantities OF milk from farm
ers and shipped II over the Laeka-
wanna, Jnge Wallace In his dccis-
ion. said that President rrresdale's
reputation of the contract was in
spired by sordid motives and COM
mitted with IAN arrogance born ot
q scorn of the consequences that
the appropriation of Westeott's per-
centages of the money which the de-
PENDANT had collected for him was
morally no better than larceny"
and that conduct like Truesdsie's by
those who manage the AFFAIRS OF
great corporations has aroused. the
spirit or resentment in the public
mind which is so intense to-day and
which is not unlikely to result in lit
igation and in municipal interior
ence which will bring serious trouble

An announcement that Will be OF
great interest to all concerned in the
West Virginia National Guard has
been made as the result of confer
ence held by Gov. Dawson, General
Scott, and Colonel Hutson, assist
ant to the adjutant general. Unless
the present plan is abandoned by the
war department the entire military
force OF the state will participate in
the war maneuyers TO be held either
at indianapolis OF at Mt. Gretna, Pa,
The opportunity is such an unu-
sual one that it will have a stimula-
ting effect upon every company OF
troops. IT is desired to have all the
companies recruited up to full
strength by the middle of June and
this will not be a difficult matter
under the present conditions.
Colonel Hutson has already pre-
pared estimates at the request of
the war department, one covering the
details of the trip to indianapolis and
the other to Mt. Gretna. SO far as
can be learned the choice between the
two locations has not yet been made
