served at least half their time, and
he has pardoned none that he consid-
ers would not be entitled to pardons
under other conditions.
"But my principal reason for dis
charging so many at this time, is for
the purpose of forever breaking up
the convict lease system in this
state" says Governor Donaghey. 81
would be untrue to my convictions,
and, as l see it, untrue to the states
best interests, if did not do every
thing in my power to bring about this
result"
Enough convicts are left to work
the farm, and it was suggested that
in the future the surplus be worked
on the county roads, "and no convicts
should ever, under any condition, be
permitted again to be hired out or
leased to a contractor. 1t is recon-
mended that the management of the
penitentiary be taken from the pres
ent board Of state officers and be plac-
ell in the hands of a board of three
men to be appointed by the governor,
and the governor should then be held
responsible for the conduct of its af-
fairs.
mo convict should be imprisoned
en- county farm under a contractor.
County convict farms should be abol-
ished altogether If a convict cannot
be worked on the public roads, he
should be sent to the penitentiary. All
convicts imprisoned for ten years or
less should be sentenced directly by
the courts to work on the public
roads. If there are no public roads
under construction in the judicial dis
tricts where the convictions are had,
they should be sent to some other dis
trict where road work is being done,
and where the equipment is sufficient
to care for the convicts."
In conclusion he says he has been
conservative in granting pardons, but
in this instance he would abolish a
pernicious system.

miles, where had no doubt the Spaniards
were waiting for us in force, both afloat and
ashore. The other pilot, as he was called,
agreed with his partner as to our location
/ knew where we were, and | knew they
were wrong. Aside from my reckoning, the
light at Cape Maysi could be seen for eighteen
miles, while the one at Baracoa was only
an eight-mile light; so there could be no
mistaking them. Vigorously the two pilots
swore that we were headed for Cape Maysi;
but l refused to change the course, as they
demanded. When they saw that they could
not influence me, the traitor undertook to
convince General Nuiez, who, as Chief of
Expeditions, was in supreme authority on
the ship, that was betraying them, as they
had often been betrayed before, and that if
was permitted to have my way they would
soon find themselves in snare from which

| could not speak much Spanish; but |
knew enough of it to understand the argu-
ment that was being made for my discom-
future, and the situation was not pleasant
one. General Nufez knew nothing about me
except what Hart had told him, and as the
Cubans had suffered so much from false
friends that it had become an old story, it
was natural to suppose, it seemed to me, that
he would put more confidence in one of his
own countrymen than in comparative
stranger.
Still, the General appeared to have faith
in me, and as the best means of strengthen
ing it, and at the time stopping the chatter
and saving a lot of bother, | ordered the
two alleged pilots off the bridge. The traitor
did not move rapidly enough to suit my
rather impatient frame of mind; SO placed
two or three hard kicks where they would be
of the greatest assistance to him, much to
the establishment of General Garcia and his
party. General Nunez said not a word

moment.
