TESTING PRlsoN coNplrroNs.

That Thomas Mott Osborne of the New York prison reform commission. after serving a se1f imposed sentence in a New York penal institution. found existence there unpleasant and dis agreeable is by no means queer. Had it been otherwise his story would have been an interesting revelation. Even the experience which he had and the impression which he gained are diff ferent from those of many other pF1s- oners. It was not to be supposed that 6 man who knew his freedom was ob- tainable the moment he insisted upon it would look upon the situation the same as 8 hardened criminal or even one who had for the first time eofn= mitted some great wrong, MF, Osborne was paying he penalty. Ills was Ret debating whether it pays to be a erifn- inal. 1t was not to be expected that he would find conditions the same as could be expected by & respected cit izen, which he was during his 'pris- OH ter4n.'' That he did not like tf4e life is unquestionably aR expression iR which many who are serving real sentence would agree with hita.
 Unless he found conditions such as never should be tolerated even for discipline, his experiment is likely ts result in little profit. He had doHibtr less obtained some idea of what prison life is like and may be able to rec oInmHnd and secure some additional advantages for the prisoners in such Institutions and if such can be accom- pIished MT. Osborne will feel repaid for his efforts Even in such an en- deavor his work has but just com menced

LEGISLATORS, PAY.

The vote on the constitutional amendment concerning the proposition to advance the salaries of the mem 5ers of the general assembly indicated very little interest therein. Barring few instances there was absolutely no enthusiasm in it's behalf, and no marked evidence of strenuous oppo- sition.
 The result does not necessarily mean that the people are satisfied with the manner in which the legislature is handed but the belief evidently exists that the increase in the salary lies within the power of the representatives themselves through closer attention to business and the display of efficiency which wlll bring about shorter ses- Eions- The heed of practicing economy in stade affairs also had a strong in huenee upon the vote
 By the vote there is shown a lack of sympathy with the plea for a great CT salary for the character of the ser vice rendered Instead of making the office attractive to men who would give the best service, through an advance in pay, the people of the state turn a deaf ear ther4on and demand evil dence to the effect that the repFesen- tatfves under the existing plan are worth more than they are getting
 Until the voters are prepared to se- lect men fitted for the service re- quired- asad are willing to make the compensation such that men who are fitted can afford to accept such office, there seems to be small chance for the legislators to get more salary except through closer attention to business and economy fin time Better service rests with the people through their selections. while better pay lies with the representatives through the ren- d1ticns of efficient service.

This law gives the col lector authority to inquire into the af- fairs not only of corporations and other organizations but of private in- divfduals. He will have under him a flock Of assessors. one for each coun- ty. several for the larger counties and many for the cities, and, the worst of it is, that these persons need not be under civil service rules.

Secretary Bryan calls it the best tariff bill since the Civil war As the proof of the pudding Is in the eating, so the proof of a tariff measure Is in it's operation. We shall have to wait for a while and see how it works before we know whether MT. Bryan's in dorsement of the Underwood bill is entirely or in part deserved.

There is much betting on which team will win the series, but that is purely a matter of speculation. When a man takes a bet on either his selection is based on his own individual opinion and nothing else. There is no inside information to be obtained. because there iRn't any.
