Conviets and Good Roads.

MANY things have been done IN Coo
RADIO that are hardly examples for other
states to follow; but its present method
of employing its convict labor far
nishes an object lesson that deserves
wide consideration. Last summer
about 80 per cent. of the Colorado con-
victs were put. to work outside their
prison walls. A thousand were used
exclusively in road building. The costs
for each prisoner employed was 80 cents
a day and the counties where the roads
were built paid this amount, less the
amount the state would have to pay to
maintain them in the prison. The day S
work was eight hours and for each
months service there was substantl-
al subtraction from the term OF I'M
proisonment. No chains were attach
ed, no stripes were worn and there
was no armed guard to patrol the work
camps; yet less than one-half OF l per
cent. of those thus employed were lost
by escapes.
The success of the method may be
due largely to the tact and judgment OF
the warden. The road work is said to
be the desire of every prisoner, but he
must earn the privilege by good con-
duet. The warden personally has
talk with each prisoner before assign
ing him to his service and receives MS
pledge that he will be true and faith
full to his trust 1.-The best effect OF
this he says, els that every man who
goes from prison to road work and
keeps his word with me, has. taken
long step toward reformation. Dos

INDUSTRYAN D IMMIG RATION.

immigration Bureau officials at
Washington, report that their
European advices indicate a re-
ded-breaking immigration in
the present year. Itsis estimat-
ed that fully 1000, 600 foreigners
will come to the United States
within the year, the tide setting
in early in March.
The report is an assuring sign
of marked revival in the coun-
try's industries, as the laborers
of the Old Country keep in close
touch with the demand for their
services. This mobility of for
eign labor has been demonstrate
ed in the last few years, and the
fact that so many of them are
planning to come to this country
this year is proof that their
services will be needed.
The one disturbing feature of
the immigration question is the
class foreigners who will come
this year either for permanent
or temporary homes in the
United States. The prosperity in
Germany will hold in that country
thousands Of persons who under
adverse conditions at their homes
would come to America. Den
mark, Norway and Sweden, on
account of favorable industrial
and agricultural conditions at
home, will not contribute as
many of their representatives as
in former years, while Finland
will contribute more, owing to
Russian oppression in that coun-
try. Canada is makingla special
bid for English and Irish home
seekers and this country may
expect a smaller immigration
than usual from those countries.

NOW FOR THE DEMOCRATIC
NATIONAL CONVENTION.

It is the opinion Of these best
able to Judge that if the people
of Baltimore will make an ear
nest campaign for the Democratic
National Convention and VIII
offer the national committee a
guaranty fund Of $500, 900, that
citv will be selected, says the
Baltimore Sun. The question is
not whether Baltimore can 90
these things. The question is
whether it will do them. II
towns like Kansas City and
Denver can fill the requirements,
Baltimore can do it. If towns
like San Francisco and New
Orleans can raise millions for a
fair. surely Baltimore can raise
500, 600 for a convention which
would be of far greater benefit
to the city than a big exposition.
The question to be ascertained
at the proposed meeting in the
City Hall is whether there as
life, enterprise and public spirit
among our citizens sufficient to
carry the project through, such
as has been manifested in st.
Louis. in Denver, in Kansas City,
in New Orleans and in San
Francisco.
There have been various sug-
gestions recently as to the best
way to advertise Baltimore. NO
advertisement would be SO ef-
fective as a national convention.
It would attract to the city not
less than 10, 600 people from other
States, each one conspicuous IN
his own community. These
people would come from every
quarter of the United States,
and they would advertise the
city more thoroughly than could
be done in any other way. 1t
would be an advertisement
marvelously cheap at the price 1t
would cost. In point Of fact 1t
would cost nothing, for the
amount the visitors would spend
here in the hotels, on the rail
roads and street cars and IN the
purchare of goods would exceed
the amount of the guaranty
fund.
The question now is whether
there is sufficient life, public
spirit and enterprise among our
people to accomplish this great
undertaking. The City Hall
meeting Will answer I1llS QueS-
ton. If men go there to explain
why it cannot be done, or that
it is too big for us, or that we
have too many other big things
on hand, or to suggest any
difficulties, the movement will
fall. But there have recently
been so many evidences of enter
prise and public spirit among us
that there is little occasion to fear
failure now. A long pull, a
strong pull and a pull all to-
gether, and the thing will be
done.

High Wages and High Prices.

The value of this country's perennial
boast of high wages is getting to be
questioned in the face of our trade sta
tistics. Are Our wages really so high,
after all? In totals and absolute sums,
certainly they are higher than those of
other lands, but when compared with
our prices it may be doubted if relative
ly they are higher than those of other
fairly prosperous nations. 1t appears
to be sound logic that if it becomes
essential for a&orkingman tc spend all
he earns for the necessaries of life, 1t
makes little difference to him whether
he gets ST oHS1o day.
But it does make an enormous differ
cnce to this country. High wages and
high prices have seemed such a great
thing to us that we have been inclined
to scorn countries that deal in lower
figures In thus boasting of the cost of
production. however, we have seriously
l1ampered ourselves in our competition
for the worlds trade The countries OF
lower wages and lower prices Ga conf
bination that leaves the workman just as
well Off can offer their manufactured
products at much less than America can.
and consequently they get the business.
1t is true we have been saved from
the serious effects of this folly to a
great extent by our natural and agrlcul-
tural products. but it is getting to be
evident that these no longer remain equal
to such a great task
There must be return-a speedy re-
turn-to normal prices If this country
is to get back to that healthy trade basis
which will mean prosperity for the
nanv as we'll as for the few. Our large
corporations. by a change of their
policy OF price maintenance. could do

Lastly, the constitution of the new en-

Thus it was that the referendum be-
came distasteful to all succeeding gov

reached when Napoleon III revived the
referendum under the name of 'plebis-

suspecting nation as emperor. Hence
it is not surprising that the French gov
