AN AMAZING

In a long poem by Thomas L.
Harris entitled "A Lyric of the Gold
en- Age" published in book form in
1856, the S. F. Argonaut finds an
amazing prophecy. The poet. in
fancy lied to that spirit Pantheon
where angels find Great England's
worthless" comes upon the shade of
Byron. The poet represents the spirit
of Byron as looking far into the fu-
ture. Addressing "Old Europe" it
declares:
Aninwardhell within thee chokesand smothers
Like FIRE in coal-pits; it shall burst nor.
Thy serfs shall cry. 'Help us. ye Western
brothers.
To win our rights, even as your own were
won."
Light brsaketh from the land of Washing
ton!
America shall fight on Freedoms side
Then Monarchy sets like q blood-red sun
That long triumphant in the skies did ride.
All men shall have their rights. none feel the
Oppressor's pride

NEVADA PRISONERS TO Be
HIRED OUT FOR FARM WORK

Prisoners in the Nevada State peni-
Tertiary will be put to work on the
farms in the State and arrangements
have already been completed by the
Plymouth Land and Live Stock Com
pany in Smith Valley and Charles L.
Fulstone of Douglas County to use a
number of these men, says the Reno
Gazette.
1t has been decided to allow the
prisoners to work for individuals and
arrangements we're completed with
the Plymouth Land & Live Stock
Company to use Is men on their hold
ings. The company agreed to pay
$3.50 a day for the mems services.
This money will be paid into the pri-
son fund and the board will decide
what disposition to make of it.
Fulstone expects to use between
80 and 40 men from the prison on his
property during the haying time,
and it is understood that other ranch
ers are making arrangements to use
prison labor.
This is the first time that prisoners
have been put to work on properties
of individuals in this State. The
movement was decided on because OF
the shortage of labor and also be-
cause the board felt that there is am
pie opportunity for the prisoners to
carr their keep and do some good.
The Plymouth ranches r about
40 miles from the prison in Igor
County and one guard will be sem
with the fifteen men. Fulstone''
ranch is near the prison farm ane
the care of the prisoners here will
not present any problem.
Just how many prisoners thu
board has decided to place on farm
is not known. There are a larg'
number in the prison whose record
are not considered bad, and it is pos
sible that all these men will be givel
jobs.
