A favorite sport in New Zealand, as
also in Australia and Tasmania, is
competition in wood chopping and

attract great deal of interest, the
championships are always won through
the use of American tools. In fact

COl. WEED|N WRITES ON
 PRISON CONDITIONS
Editor of Florence Blade Tribune Replies to Communication Sent
 Him by Warden Sims.

The following editorial is taken from the Florence Blade Tribune. published by Hon. Thos. v. Weedfn. It throws considerable light on con- ditions prevailing at the state prison located in that town and will be of interest generally to all persons in- terested in Gov. Hunts prison reform schemes.
 A Comm unic ation.
 Arizona State Prison.
 Florence. April 15, 1912. Hon. Thos r Weedin.
 Mayor r-,Elect of Florence.
 Dear Sir:-We are in receipt of a letter from Mir. S. w. Higley. presi- dent and manager of The Arizona Republican, in which he addresses this query:
 ''Is it not fact that the people of Florence are alarmed and are carry ing arms. fearing that there will be q general outbreak of the prisoners ?' Have you any knowledge of any such conditions?
 Please answer at your conVen- fence, for we are very anxious to re- lieve the torturinE suspense of mind of the manager of The Arizona Re publican.
 Very truly yours,
 +. B SIMS.
 Superintendent.
 J. J. SANDERS.
 Parole Clerk
 Gentlcmen:-In reply to your above inquiry. l will say that the announc nfl mt If T clothing for the prisoners at the state prison and of substituting therefor plain clothing, such as is worn by many private citizens. did cause considerable uneasiness among the families of Florence for the req son that in case of a serious out break of priSOncrS-an ever present possibility at all penal institutions there would be no way of recogniz- ing those who might rush into the town to procure arms, ammunition supplies. and whatever other vaIu- ablcs they might elect to take They were aware of the fact that the pri- son contains about eiGhty-fiye life termers, many of whom belong t. the most desperate class of criminals | and this knowledge tended to em- phasize the uneasiness But the peo- pie of Florence are not carrying arms-an act prohibited by law nor have they armed themselves" as the result Of this feeling It has | been the habit of American families as well as bachelor citizens, in this section, to keep fire arms in their | homes for hunting purposes and ds l a protection against possible law less intruders. hence they were arm ed to the same extent before tho 1 prison was located here that they are now. Tn conclusion I will add 1 that q large majority of our citizens feel that the state prisoners. espe- cially the more degenerate class among them. should be required tc wear q distinctive uniform, of some | kind, so that the citizen may recognize them. at safe distances l in case of an outbreak and not be l taken unaWares.

Good Takers and Good Writers.

Good takers are rarely good writ CTS. and vice versa. Good takers are those who fill up the conversational gaps. A conversational gap is the ab- sence of talk. Gaps come when thought lags Takers must be ready to jump right in and fill up the gaps without thinking
 Good writers must make gaps; great huge thinking gaps. which must be used for concentrated meditation. after which comes the written result of that meditation. Good takers must stop talking when they commence to write. This is always hard for them. Good writers are too careful what they say to consent to All sudden talk. ing gaps with mere chatter.
