Mr. TrrU said.
Mr. rmkletl: Th amendment to ttia

peniuuitary is on ol vital importance. To
lh leasing system in all in lonus 1 am Ht-
Urly opposed but if by tlx action of ihii
legislature wear ajoo to bealllicted with
ii then let us a( least by adopting my
amendment help to make the contract nf
la endurable. I know tbi contract whs
mad by two men on the part of the statu
both pur ami pal runic Ai a statesman
and patriot Governor Huberts stands the
pr ot any man in Texas. Hut no mini ia
lufallible and as I have sometimes been
compelled to differ With ti i tit so I must
differ with bitn as to tlie wisdom of tliis
lease. If I am wroiitt I must bear the
onseUencs of my error for when I urn
deprived ol the liht of past experience
on any question 1 hare no standard by
which to measure the HRiit eicept my own
Judgment. 1 oppose the whole leasiiiR sys-
tem when applied to penitentiary convicts.
1 detest it as violative in its results of the
instinct of humanity the civilization of
the age the whole former policy of our
laws and tosnund statesmanship.
TIIILIAH1N0 BVSTKM VIOLATES TIIS FOMCY
Or 1'KNAL LAW.
For thirty years our statutes have de-
clared that tlie penitentiary wus established
to "reform the ollondor and deter others
from following his example." Tlie law
never punishes for the sake nf punishment;
that would be barbarous and inhuman.
It punishes only in the hope ol rclorinu-
tiou and to warn miters by showing the
consequences of crime. The stain of Tinas
desires neither the death nor the torture nf
any ot her citizens. However wo limy
warp her policy by speculative contracts
the state strikes only to reform nho pun-
ishes only to intimidate and none of ner
people ever demanded that merchandise
should he made of her arlininals.
Tito very word penitentiary IndioitoH a
place of penitence but when you make
commerce ol man that a stale may roup
prnlltH the criminal curses in hit huurl
your barbarity and the wholo ohoct of law
is defeated.
It ia a mistake to mpposo that only
thieves 11 nil their way to the penitentiary.
The man who In a moment ol passion ami
when stung by insults or wrongs uttuupts
the life ol his fellow-man is doomed ulan
by law to tlie penitentiary; mid amongst
the conviutH now there Itil men who
are not vagabonds but commuted violence
under Impulse and auger are found sent
there in the last two yuers men whose Im-
pulses and sympathies though wayward
are as genlle and humane us those which
animate the bosoms of the men who punish
them. They ure there learning by a ter-
rible lesson that man must curb his pas-
sions. Turn to our Codo of Procedure unil
von II nd that the verv second ohlent men
tioned for criminal procedure is timl the
convict ahull havo no hope to escape nun
ishmont for his crime. Yot in the face of
mis wa auopt a leasing system under

victs represent utmost every trade. Among

penteisnnd thirty painters. Ilia unwise I is
criminal to paralyse tho honest industries
ol our Iowiih unit cities by permitting any
one to import upon them at will ami pleas-
ure a servile labor like this. More than
this it is unwise and dangerous to invest
any citizen with so great u power by con-
tract with the statu. I'lin you imagine a
mora devilish despotism than would lollow

The Lutes! and itlosl Kl.llelilous Hypothesis
Concerning tho Mysterious I'tbioner
II h is been re-erved or a French hull pay
olllcer to start n new hvpothesia about the
Mask. The inyslcriuits prisoner was no
less a personage than Jean Ihiptislo l'otUC
lin known better by his etuo name of
Molinre. IJuo dinhlo iilluil il luire dans
cotle giilerc ono cannot help usking and
how did Monsieur do lloliere ciitnic to be a
state prisoner? Th Ingenuity of; tho frottch
olllcer (who has plenty of leisure) supplies
nn answer. There ure many llitngs obscure
in the career ot Moliere. VVu do not know
the date o( his birth ; we lie) not know
who his wife was ; wo do i not know
where lie is bmied. "The! grave of
leucine tho grave nf Corneiihr' hut un-
known is he grave of Moliere" wo might
sav parodying the Welsh verses about the
grave of Arthur. The author of the new
hypothesis supposes I but the 'comedian did
not really die on the night when no broke a
moon vessel utter acting the llalade luiag-
iiiaiie. Ho was not really buried as an
eye-witness declares by night with torches
burning. Ha only fell Itfto a lit and the
Jesuits (probably the twd'religiotis women
who soothed his lust moments were Jesuits
In disguise) got at Moliere nnd spirited him
away. They "squared'1 his wife they
"squared" Huron that they "squared" La
U range it requires a robust military faith
to believe. The Jesuits mid Jausenlsts
too for that matter did not love the author
ol "Tsrlufto" and "Lo Kestintte i'ierro"and
"L'KcolodcsFenimes." - Bo they spirited
hi in away worked on llis king (not vet
quite the devotee ho became by any
means) und had Moliero shut up in tho
I slo 8to. Marguerite and later In the llastile.
He wore the mask because his comic face
with the thick mobile eyebrows was bo
well known and ho survived his assumed
tteat n ny some thirty yers l itis is a verv
goon example ot a theory so ludicrous that
it insv become popular or rather grater
round it a sect of fanatics. Th ili
evidence in its favor seems to bo another
hypothejis that Moliere's manuscripts
have disapprnred hectuise they wesedes-

ol all good things even of gold cuius timl
