penal institutions, according to the
report made by thai veteran inves-

writing a series of articles on the
evils of some prisons, and the hope
full progress upward in others.

men employed by this concern are members of the Third Regiment,
National Guard. They were notified by their employers that if they
reenlisted in the National Guard they would be discharged. The
seven men reenisted and found employment elsewhere. This con
duct by an employing company is a species of treason. It is on a
level with the teachings of anarchy. Men who set up to penalize
patriotic service for the State are public enemies. If there is moth
ing in the State law to reach and punish an ofense of this aggra.

The object is to enlist Democratic sentiment and unity Democrats

AS a rule State and national politics have nothing to do with each
other and should be kept separated in the minds of voters. Their
