the money as this

suits brought about through its
system Of compelling prisoners to
work and support themselves in a
measure; it is by the labor system
that the bonds of the institution
are being paid of, and when they
are all paid off, the cost Of keeping
prisoners will be all that is to be
required from all counties alike.
We say that we appreciate this par
ticular fact; but, with all this, we
believe that the prisoners Of Kent
and Sussex counties can be made
to be of far greater value to the peo-
pie at large, and at the same time
their general health be not endan-
gered, by providing for them to
work upon the public roads and
drainage systems of the two coun-
ties, instead of sending them to the
workhouse to be farmed out to
clothing contractors, and produce
goods to come into competition
with the products of honest labor.
In many states the idea has been
worked out to the entire satisfac-
tion of the people, and the public
highways have been transformed
from uneven surfaces and with lit
tie other advantages than a woods
trail, to comfortable roads over
which loaded teams draw heavy
loads with ease. We also realize
that it is necessary to have special
laws passed by the Legislature to
provide for the use Of prison labor
on our public roads, ETC., but it is
also necessary that the people should |
become familiar with the idea that
it is to their advan ,age to have the
prisoners contribute to the public
welfare and comfort, by useful labor
which will in no way come into
with honest labor in
the regular course.

Manual for Sussex county has been

valuable information to not only
the teachers, but to those interested
in public school education. The

there are actually engaged in teach
ing in the public schools, three
hundred and one teachers, and the
amount of salary paid, or contrac-
ted to be paid to each one is set

THE elections Of Tuesday last
have shown plainly that the pen
dulum of public opinion is swing
ing towards the Republican princi-
pies Of government again, and
while the results in some of the
large cities was the result of local
conditions the large gains in the
legislative branches by Republicans
is the real test Of public sentiment
In Maryland the people refused to
endorse the men or the platform on
which the Democratic party made
their campaign, and Phillips Lee
Goldsborough has been chosen
Governor over Arthur Pue German,
by safe majority, while indications
point that the disfranchising amend
ment to the State Constitution, has
again gone down to defeat. The
whole stock in trade OF the Demo-
cratic party in Maryland was the
DISTINGUISHING object, and the hon
orable thinking democrats Of Mary
land refused to be made a party to
the crime. In Philadelphia the
people turned down the Organiza-
ton Republicans, and elected not
only a reform Mayor, but enough
members Of the city councils to en-
sure that the changes demanded in
that city's government will be
made. While the results are not
decisive in general way, yet the
trend of public sentiment is to.
wards the principles Of the Repub-
lican party.

THE report from the committee
Of physicians that made an investi-
gation of the workhouse at Green
bank, is some what disappointing,
in that it failed to make recommen-
dations as to how the conditions
which it found in part unsatisfac-
tory, should be treated in a way to
remedy the trouble. It is evident
that the report is worded so as to
give the least criticism possible of
those in charge, but yet in a veiled
way the admission is plain to the
reader, that there is room for a
change in practices and methods
