 During de atelnoOn the ladies and children were out in full force and the enjoyment of all present was in tense The half mile race for school children was run in three heats, with twenty-five entries, and Bail Eddins was an easy winner Young Eddins rna pretty fast one, and was loudly appaured. On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons and evenings, Charles G. Fitzpatrick, the origiator and producer of sensationalism, and the only one-legged skater in the world vii appear at the Main rink, and delight the people of Pine Bluff with the highest form of entertain ment.

"By the public account system the
State goes into business, places its
goods on the market and assumes all
riks Of profit or loss. BY the system
the State seeks to gain for itself all
the profit the contractor might make
out of the labor of the convicts, who
work more willingly for the State
than for &C ontractor.
"Under the lease system the State
victs are employed in the same man.
ner as under the public account sys-
tenn, the only difference being in the
disposal Of the products. Goods must
be consumed in the institution, or sold
to other State institutions or depart
ments of the State Government. This
system has been adopted largely be-
cause of the objections of free labor
to the competition Of prison-made
goods. There must be competition
between convict and free labor, but
under this system it is indirect, for
what the State provides it does not
have to purchase, and thus cost Of
maintaining institutions is partially
met and taxation reduced. This sys-
tenn seeks to conserve these three in
tcrests, financial, general interest Of
the convicts and free labor, which is
ignored entirely in lease, contract and
piece price, and to great extent in
the public account system. ~ system
of State use, however, has it's faults
1t cannot supply all the wants of the
convicts, as the convicts cannot enter
every industry, and, as the demand for
convict products is limited, the con-
victs cannot be worked to their full
capacity.
"Public works and ways system is
nearly the same as that Of State use,
and competition with free labor is fur
thcr removed, for the State is the sole
beneficiary of the work of the COIL
victS who are employed in erecting
public buildings, building highways
of permanent character, rather than
making articles for consumption. Much
work is done that would be delayed.

A Seved Situation.

The rising artist was paintin in
his studio when q visitor entered lead
ing dog. The animal at once COM
menced barking furiously at the pic
ture on the easel.
"Oh," said the caller, "you follow
nature closely. The best evidence of
the faithfulness with which you have
painted that dog in the background
is the earnest way my dog barks at
him.
"But that ism t dog" was the re-
ply. "It's cow"
It was a terrible situation, but the
visitor did not lose his head. said he
languidly:
"Well; the dogs eyes are better
than mine. He always did detest
cows.'

is reserved by the State to make rules
for the care of the convict, and in
spect his quarters and work place. No
institution is maintained other than
a place Of detention, whore the con-
victs can be held until placed in the
hands Of the lessee.
"Under the contract system the
State feeds, clothes, houses and
guards the convict, and the contractor
pays stipulated amount per capita
for the services of the convict, sup
plies the raw material and superin-
tends the work.
"By the peice price system the only
difference from the contract method
relates to superintendence and deter
mining the speed at which the con
victs must work.
$50 far as the convict is concern
ed the public account system does not
differ from that of the piece price,
but for the institution it is entirely
different. BY the piece price system
the contractor finances the business
and assumes all the chances, but in
the public account system the State
enters the field of manufacturing on
it's own account. &.
"By the State use system bust
ness Of manufacture or production is
conducted, on the principle that the
State shall produce only for its own
consumption.
"Under the public works and ways
system labor is not applied to the
manufacture Of marketable articles,
but to the construction and repair of
prison or other public buildings,
brcakwatcrs, parks and roads.
"In each institution investigated an
effort was made to secure the opinion
of officials and employers of convicts
as to the merits and demerits of the
several systems under which convicts
work. Replies to this inquiry may be
summarized as follows: In support Of
the lease system the only argument Of
fercd is the poverty of the State, in
ability to provide quarters, food and
guards and suitable work to keep con-
victS employed.
ESQ far as the welfare of the con-
vict is concerned contract is far supe-
rior to the lease system, for the State
provides shelter and food, selling on
ly the labor and retaining close super
vision and control of maintenance and
discipline.
Contractors pay for the work un-
der the piece price system, not by the

secure a direct appropriation for the
same work to be performed by free Ia
Dor. An objection to the employment
Of convicts on public ways is that they
are exposed to the gaze Of the public,
which is admitted to be against the
best interest not only of the public,
but of the convicts as well. Prison
labor is not like free labor. Convlcts
are on hand whether wanted or not,
and it is more often q matter Of find
ing work for the convicts than of find
ing employees for the work.
