MISSIONARY LAYMEN MEET.

New York, Jan. 14.-Opening to.
night with dinner at the Hotel AS
tor and closing on the following Sun
day night with a great meeting at the
Hippodrome, the local laymen of the
Laymen's Missionary Movement prom.
ises one of the most interesting Sc
ries of meetings ever held by that
body. The work is undenominational
and has for its purpose the evangelical
ton of the world. In every part of
the world there are organized dis
tricts for carrying on the work and
each has been allotted a share of the
total expense, amounting to some thir-
ty million dollars, which it is esti-
mated will be necessary to complete
the work.
While the clergy are prominent in
the movement the bulk of the work
is in the hands of the laymen. Prelin,-
mary meetings have been held in the
various districts of the metropolitan
section during the week preceding the
convention.
This movement, the American sec.
ton of which will end at Chicago in
May, is regarded among Christian
workers as the most important work
of its kind that has been undertaken
since the Crusades. and has for ire
object the Christianization of the en-.
tire world within the present genera
ton. The movement is confined to
men alone. Every Christian country
has assumed its part of the burden of
raising about $3O,OOO,OOO in the aid OF
both native and foreign missions.

coNvicTs ON PUBLIC ROAD.

coNvIcTs ON PUBLIC ROAD.
1t is understood here that certain
members of the Board of Supervisors
are thinking of having an official in.
vestigation of the proposition to work
county convicts on the public roads.
The Gazette's position in this mat.
ter is well known. We advocate a
thorough investigation by the Board,
when we think it will be found sp.
parent that the county can secure
much better roads, and at lower cost
than under the present system. 1t
is not our idea that the County farm
be sold or abandoned, but that it be
worked by small number of con-
victs, and women prisoners especial
ly, for the production of food crops
for the teams and men at work on
the roads.
We take it that the proposition to
work cOnvicts on the public roads is
one that can be reduced to dollars
and cents, and from the records, to
an average approximation Of the
number of men available for the
work. The items of investment and
expense, such as moving and sleep
ing vans. guards, teams. machines
and supplies can easily be approx
mated, and for the comparison
against these items. the amounts
paid to contractors for work on roads
and bridges are matters of record.
The Board should make an early

The evident purpose of the reso-

born OF the fear that If the caucus
does not agree between now and

the purpose is to prevent the legish,-

plain for denial; and about the only
difference between a legislature that
is wholly democratic and democrat.
ic caucus is that the caucus has
adopted the secret ballot while the
