Beware of Constitutional
Amendments.

A friend encloSes this article from
the Glasgow Times and sent the letter
printed below.
Beware of constitutional amendments
William Goebel and Judge S. III. Boles
assisted in the framing of the present
constitution. Their hearts were on the
side of the people, and any meddling
with their great work is in the interest
of the corporations and special interests.
There are two constitutional amend
ments to be voted upon in the Novem-
Der election that should attract the
serious consideration OF every voter be-
fore he casts his ballot.
The first OF these is the working Of
convict labor on the public roads, in
stead of behind the penitentiary walls.
The State Prisons are at present self
sustaining AS a matter of fact, were it
not for the unnecessary number of prison
officials, they ought TO be paying a hand
some profit into the state treasury. To
break the present contracts and put
the convicts at work on the roads would
mean the loss of hundreds of thousands
of dollars to the state, and an annual
cost of several hundreds of thousands
more to the tax payers who would be
forced to pay the deficit in the running
expenses of these institutions The

profit if they were economically

aging the prisoners now is at least so
per cent more than it ought to be. How
ever, Ibis has nothing to do with the
merits of the case.
You very we'll know that all the
states that have tried the working of
convicts on public roads have failed. In
the first place the convicts cannot work
over seven months in the year, and the
other five months they are maintained
at great expense in idleness. | noticed

victs had cost that county 81. Iper head

bring the matter before you, and | be-
lieve you will do as several of the papers
are doing in the State, advocate the
maintenance of the present system,
which is certainly the most humane way
that convicts could be treated, makes
better citizens of them, and enables
them to learn good trades, instead of
exposing them to ordinary camp life on
public works.
