P every man in the county, no matter what his avocation, would purchase what be wants in the county, and make it a point to spend his money at home, the whole country would soon be in a thrifty condition.

There is real satisfaction in know ing that Missouri felons of every hue. and type, are not to be. distributed over the State for the purpose of hav ing their muscle put in competition with that of honest, law abiding citi zens, who have to work for a living. On the contrary, they are to be kept within prison walls, under constant surveillance, and compelled, Ave hope, to remember that they are deprived of freedom on account of their crimes. We do not favor cruelty: we would neither starve ncr freeze a convict; Ave Avould not compel him to Avork Avhen sick: nor would we " im pose tasks that he could not perforin, lint Ave Avould confront him every hour of his prison life with the fact that it means punishment for crime.
