A Pertinent Question.'

Editor Iourikr : What under the sun
is the reason that, our lawmakers can't
devie some way whereby our peniten
tiary with its hundreds of able-bodied
men can't become self supporting instead
of being a burden to the taxpayers?
The stste is entitled to their labor
wh 'ther in or nut of prison .
Large factories with a like number of
employes accumulate cash with their
yeurly dividends.
Why should the taxpayers be taxed
neurly 1100,000 for a class of moil who
are able uud ulionhl be made to support
theiuselveb? Laimiiicu.
