A Work House

The Journal is reliably in
formed that the members of the
county court are considering
the advisablity of establishing
a county work house and the
proposition seems to be meet
ing with general approval. AT
the present time the prisoners
are confined in the county Jail
where they are provided with
all the comforts of home life
and their incarceration is no
punishment. Many of the pris-
oners, especially the colored
ones, would rather be in the
county Jail than at home for
they have no work to do and
their meals are sure and GER
tain. They are simply an ex-
pense to the taxpayers and the
county gets no benefit from
them. 1t is claimed that d
county work house would be
self sustaining, The prisoners
could be made to break rock
and work on the public roads
and in few years most of the
public roads could be mecada-
mized. 1t is said that the work
house at Quincy is self sustain
ing and the members of the
Marion county court will go to
Quincy in a few days to iuves-
tigate that that institution. If
they find it as represented they
will probably build a work
house in Palmyra where the
county prisoners may be put to
work Hannibal journal.
And that is what Monroe
City should have, or better still
a whipping post.

White Animal Can't Smell.

From the Minneapolis Journal.
Pure white animals" said
a pet stock dealer, have no
sense of smell. Hence they are
ncotinually eating things thai
disagree with them, and in
eight cases out OF ten poison
themselves and die.
Pure white pigs should new
err be allowed to run loose in the
fields and woods. For without
the protection of the sense of
smell such pigs, when they get
out, eat all sorts of poisonous
roots and berries and die off
rapidly.
"In Africa, the white rhi-
noceros poisons itself by eating
the euphorbia. and pure white
sheep are difficult to rear be-
cause they are continually
munching shrubs and grasses
that don't agree with them"

BON1PARTE and HAZING
Confers 7cith Congressmen-Wih
Tisit annapolis.

Washington Feb 9-Secretary Bonaparte has
been in conference with several members of the
House of Representatives regarding the prose.
cution of the hazing cases at Annapolis. AS
result, he has decided that. while several of the
midshipmen whom the board of investigation
found to have been implicated in the hazing OF
fourth classmen will be technically placed UNI
der arrest, they will not be court martialled at
once if at all. The Secretary is going to Anna
polls on Monday. and when he returns to WASH
nGton he will consult further with the Con-
eressmen. Some of the latter think they can
secure the passage by Congress OF the leg1sla-
ton recommended by the Secretary, repeating
the present hazng law and enabling him te
apply a system of graded punishments to mid
shipmen convicted of haZing. The Secretary
probably will he willing to suspend action at
Annapolis for a reasonable time to afford oppor-
tunity for Legislation.
As the point has been made that a suspension
of further prosecutions ut Annapolis would
amount to unjust discrimination against the
eight young men who have already been con-
victed and dismissed from the academy. it may
be stated that the Secretary Will refer to the
Attorney General the question as to whether OF
not the President has by the extension of par
dons the right 20 restore these midshipmen to
[ heir places in the academy. His own opinion is
adverse. however.
