* Some Things He Has Seed.
» Heard and Thought About- » • •
The best disposition of our crimh I!lIs i<!
up for discussion and settlement o' .Geor¬
gia to day. The fact that the prese at sys¬
tem of leasing convicts will soon exp ro by
limitation, some reecut occurrences here
and there, and a growing sentiment ar'ong
our people that our present plan of pun
islujpent is not the best, viewed from any
standpoint, have brought the question to
the front. The question is one with mW.v
sides, and one about which thinking [>eo
ple will not cave to dogmatize.
v.%
It is not difficult to point out many Jb
jcctionablo features in our present system
—less difficult no doubt than it is '»
devise a system that would bo free from
the same,, or even greater defects.
******
One vital objection to the present sys¬
tem is that it is a species of legalized
slavery. The State 1ms the normal and
legal right to punish evil doers, but it has
certainly no normal right to convert this
function into a commercial transaction in
which the sovices of the criminal are
bartered to the highest bidder for a con¬
sideration. The criminals of the State
should not be treated as so many paupers,
lunatics or imbeciles, and supported at
the expense of honest, law-abiding peo¬
ple. To maintain prisoners in idleness
would be to add cruelty to punishment.
They ought by every token to cam their
support. Hut to use the convicts of
Georgia as a means of revenue to the
common wealth is too much like putting
a premium upon crime.
******
We have had abundant demonstration
of the fact Umt it is impossible, un¬
der our present system to protect the
State’s convicts from cruel treatment.
Shameful and shameless barbarities liavo
been recalled by many fair and full investi¬
gations of theconductof the convict camps
in various pints of Ihe state. This is not
true of all of them, of course, but in too
many of them, it lias been the case, and is
no doubt true today. Safeguard tho sys¬
tem as we may, it is intrinsically bad, and
can never be made good. It was foisted
aud fastened upon the State during the
days of reconstruetioifiso-called,) and does
not deserve the long life it lias had.
*******
The criminal laws of Georgia recog¬
nize a distinction between misdemeanors
and felonies. Tho couvict lease system
rccoginizes no such distinction. Crimi¬
nals of all grades and shades art: dumped
into a common pile. The youthful
offender, too poor, it may be, to pay a fine,
goes into stripes along side of the most
hardened law breakers. Such indiscrimi¬
nate mixing of petty thieves and bloody
murderers “chock by fool”” makes of our
convict camps breeding places for crimes
and criminals. The new system, what¬
ever it may bo, should abate this evil.

La hive Grippe
If .you had the Grippe,
you know fits aches and pains,
the fever, the chills, the cough,
the depression—you know
them all. Tlhe Grippe exhausts
the nervous vitality. system quickly, Two
lowers the
things should be done at once:
—the body must be strength¬
ened, and force must be given
to the nervous system. Cod
liver Oil will do the first; Hy
pophosphites the second. These
are permanently and pleasantly
combined in Scott's Emulsion.
It lifts the despondency membranes and
heals the inflamed

But you need not have LA

You can put your system in
a condition unfavorable to it.
You can have rich, red blood;

prevents as well as cures.
And whether you send or go

THESE FIVE THINGS:
1 . It does not taste like a medi¬
cine. It is as pleasant to take as
lemonade and makes a most refreshing
drink.
a. It never nauseates tho most
delicate stomach,
3 , it does not swap off one dis
ease Tor another. It does not set up
one form of disease in order to relieve
another as is so often the case.
4. It contains no alcohol or
0 p| unl in any form and is always
lmrnslcss even when given to a babo
one day old.
5. It does not patch Simply, It
cures. It reaches as nothing else
does to the hidden sources of disease
in the blood and removes the cause. It
does this with an ease and power that
have never been equaled.
