The Lot of State Convicts Cast {0 the Tender Mercy (f Nebraska's Tweed, “Con” Buffington’s Bill to Insure "‘Boss” Stont's Omnipot: noy! Statehood Obliterated to Round Off the Penitentiary Ring! Fifteen Millions to he Wrested Out of the Nebraska Traasury, Taspayers a Toy In the Hands of (he Most Successful Vampire that Ever Lived, dence to the Beg, Livcots, Ncb,, Febiuary 13.—The enormous grip this man William H. B. Stout hss over tho whole stats, the great state of Nebraska, is the only tople of conversation at the capltal. Remarks far from belng complimentary to a great number of those who dub thelr names with a prefix—megic Hon, thess times— are heard fecm all corners; yet no onc has the courage, i. e. the marhcod, to raise his volce to poict out the maelstrom wherein the moncey of the tax-payers will, In tho course of a few years find ity way. A Tweed regime would be heavens when compared with the regime tha ‘Ne- braska Boss” eeeks to fasten on the state through the medium of his henchmen In Special correspor the leglslature now in sesslon, CFIXING' THE COMMITT It must not be overlooked thut all measures Iniroduced In the lLoueo, rela- ting In ary way to tic ttate penitentiary, have been rofcrred to the committee on public lands and buildinge, Those qucs tions which could nct decently he refer- red to that commistee, werc referred everywhere else but where they should have, to euch an extent that the com- mittes on penltent'ary is now asking itaelf what it is in existe C'CON.” BUFFINGTON, intrcduced house rojl 235, a bill for “‘An act to authorize the construction and maintairance and provide for the organi- zation and maneg ment of a eystem of penal reformatory institutions and the dctontion thercin of persons convicted of crime, for the stets of Nebraska,” which was reforred to the committee on public lands snd buildings, the Hon. J. B. Wright of the Lincoln ring, chairman, HOW CUNNINGLY APPROPRIATE that title sounds for common mortals? Yet one may venture toeay after a carefal reading of the sections of the bill, that ia any state having any statehcod left, no representatlve of the people could have been found loaded with cheek cnough to have dared hand such a mon strous measure to the clerk of a house of representatives for its reading. *‘Con.” Buflington's nswme, interlaced with “‘Boss” Stout's, ought to be a fit ing epitaph to the lost honor of a youthfal state. THE T REFORMER, not content with the princely income a siate logisiature and a doclle board bave |. deeded him until the year of gracs 1880, by which he will up'to that time have drawn from the taxpayers the mcdest sum of $1,5600,000—and the record will bear the figures out—has conceived the idea that he can wmonopolizs the prison system of Nebraska. And how nicaly and fluently do the ecctions of his great | ; conceptions 1un. The main idea ex- preesed throughout his bill—for the un. ttiated and innccent legislator—is thathe will crect reformatories, etc., without any aid from the state, and consequently relieve the taxpayers from the maintain. ance of the state convlcts. THE *‘BOSS” GAME. “‘Boss” Stout controls quarries at Lou- isville, Unfortunately on top of the unique ledge of stone there are strippioys varying in thickness from 25 to 50 feet. To wheel these strippings into the Platte river, he found he had 1o employ the la. bor of 200 free men. Frce labor costs money, and the most of the money he wrests from the etate treasury under the provisions of his contract in actual force, has been dumped luthe Platte. The situation must undergo a change. Hence ho gracefully requests the legislatire, through the good offices of his friend, “‘Con’ Buflington, to tavraonrize” “poss” stour to erect and maintaln at “‘his own cost” one or more buildiog to be used as penal roformatories, ete. And with the stroke of the pen, and a1 if by magle, the state penitactiary built by the sfate at a cost of £400,000 00 18 turned over to his own private use, deeded o him as o matter of fact for all eternity, and is treated as *one” of the above, “‘his” peral reformatories With a faw eeciions happily drafted, be suggests that the manogzement ol **his” insututions shall Le under the control of the b-ard of public lands and buildings, and then 8s a return of his tceming kind conczssicn to the demands of these who believe tha state fully able to take care of its convists, lie creates A PROCUKRATOR, whose business “he” makes to recrult coavicts, a8 h's femlntne synonym is to recrutt materials for houses of 1ll-fame, A lhappy creation of his overweighty and mighty braios! He clothes his procura- tor with the eole power of sppointing the superintendents of “‘hla hous, of correction, and as a chris. tlanlike surrender to the wrath of an oflendcd people, he provides that the superintendcnts *‘may also be moved st the pleasure of the governor.” But ls a halt. 'The governor s kindly given the privilege of removing a saperint:ndent appolnted by the omn! potent procurator, but he ‘is denied a voice in the appcintment ot neither of them, nor has he anythivg to do with the appointment of the yricarator, who is sole creation of “Williwu H, B. Stoat, his heirs, adwivistrators and assigns,” THE STATE HAS NO CONTROL, 1t way be that & luminous miod of the size of the minds of the framor and latro- ducer of the bill can dlecira where, what nd how the stite reta'ns the control of Boss' Stout's houses of correction; but to an upprejudiced, ¢isinterested, unto phistical wind; to the horse sense of the ragged fax-payers, a magniying glaes of fremenduous proportions shovld be in- ocrporated fn “Cin” Buflington's bill, The short of it, Boss Stout, i that yon have the fall control over your proposed creations; that you propose to run them as it will euit you; that nobcdy on carth has a thing to ssy for or egiics: your unscrupulous way of mavagament, be bhe ‘gnvnu or, judge, legislature or boct back, You srs nct saisfied in extorting millises frem the pock.ts of the frae tei'era of this state, but youwsnt to do it in your own way, and in a wey the past expetience §1¢-speaks enough! O pheno menal heaxer WHAT THE PROFOSED HOUSES of correetion will amount to, is another question which will bear some investia: vion, It will not do to impress upon the minds of leglelators, that In passing *Bors” Stout’s bill, they wi'l ralse fiom nothing, institutions of the sort all over state, No, and for the excellent raaeon that the s'ate penitentiary v ooy enough to hiold 1,800 convicts,—all that may be samtenced wilin {hs coming thicty yoars, The ‘‘Boss’ knowa that better than anyone clso but the unthink ing minds may not see that far. His purpose laid down ia eounding words, when bolled down s merely as followe To use at the L. UISVILLE QUARRIES all the convict labor be can werk on the ledge thers, thus doivy away with the free labor hie las 11w to employ and pay. “‘His" institution there, and that will be the only one will “*build,” will be a shed, & pen, covered perhaps with s rool, in which ~ convicts will ba shackled at night, And to mske the management of thesa conviets more efliclent and lcsscostly in the way of officers and giards, he provides in ono of the scctions of hila great bill that *‘any convict atlempting even to escapad, whether such escape be effected o not,” ¢ha'l be brought to court and sentenced to twice the term he was then servity out. The great reformer even cors dors it halow his stature, to leave to cur courts the discretion all our lawa recognize in the matter cf applying a sentence to a convict! THE GORDIAN KNOT. But what wil this littls echeme cost to the texpayers, is what may be of scme interest o the people of the state gener ally. How mildly ths sabject fs broached in section 10 of the bill: *‘The compensation from tho state, shall be fixed by sald contrast; but the same ekball not fr the firt five years exceed 95 per cent. of the per capita paid by the state for the past two year: A RETROSPECTIVE GLAN: at the appropria‘ion bill passed in 1883 will show that the average ccst to the state under Stout's contracs for the mein- tenence of the prison is forty-eight cents per day and capita, or $40,113 15 for cach of the years 1883 and 1884, The coet to the people, under Stout's new bill, kis compensatisn for the first five years will be forty-five and one half cents per day aud capita; for the follow- ing five years it will be foriy-threo and two-thirds cents, and so on untl the ex pration ¢f the thirty years contract authorized by the bill, deduciing two and three quarters cents from each precedinyg quota, It is safe to assume that he will have on the average of the thirty years ONE THOUSAND CONVICTS to handle. Tllino's, thirty years ago, had fewer convicts than we have at this time. Oar neighboring state Iowa, has now scme 1,200 Inmates in her two prisors A few figures on the above basis will be clcquent, Taking the average compen- eation the slate would pay Stout at forty cents per day and capita, and {he average number of piisoners at 1,000, we find that the cost to the taxpayers for the maintainance of the state conviets would Per yoar. 816,000 Admittine 32 to be a fair basis iu the estimation of the amount prcducad by a free lakborer daily, let us admit that the smount produced by a convict be 5 of the same; we find that the state grants to ““Boss” Stout. in tha shape ot free control of 0 the convictlabor L§18,943,500 COSTS OF RUNNING, Let us deduct from these amounts, the costs of snlaries of officers, cost of grarding, feedin clothing the convicts, in fact, include all the ex. pences connected with the managet-ent of a prigon, taking for a basis the cost in the Wisconsin state prison at Waupun, .33 cents per day and 120,450 capits, we find 5,618,500 Leaving ‘‘Boss” Stout's 2511,000 profits at. e ... 815,380,000 Thus the little echeme called *‘Con” Buffington’s House Roll 255, s) m'ld fu appearance, €0 decelvirg oa its face,wheu reduced down to figures at the least es- timate possible, WRESTS OUT OF THE TAXPAYERS and laboring men of tho state the en- ormous sum of §15,000.000 in thirty years, Representatives, senators of this young and growlng ¢tate, think. Let the people of Netraeka think, Tbey have not, nor hes apy other state of tho union, met with such & tremendous attempt at ex- tortion under the cover of a law. See the cunnlog and cheek of this man Stout and his henchmen, It is necessary In order to allay the succeptivi'itles of the batter p 1 tion of our law mskers, to show them the cost of maintaintog the penitentiary, te- fcra the time the contract in actual forcs took place, and pat in parallel es it were, the cost under tne propoecd bill. Pom- pously “Con” Buflington introduced a resolution into the house, directing the stats auditor to furnish the requlred in- formatlcn. Back came the report that the averege cost of the ten months pre ceeding the Stout contract, was seveuty- scyen cents per day and capita, THE POSITION WAS GAINED!! The *“Bosy's” henchman did 1ot wish to chuose to tell that in 1877, no industry or railroad facllities wereat hand; the number of convicts thenin prison wes 103a than 100, they did not want It known that the reck'essnees in the mansgement or Wardens Wocdhust end Wymsn on behalf of tha state bad to be me!; that at 1hst tlme the busine:s qualifications of a warden were utterlessly disregarded, that politice] shysters, and mountebanks were given the directicn over which nene but honett wen ehon'd preside. They. FAILED TO EXPLAIN that the same amount of officers are needed, whether a prison has 100 inmat s or 1,000 ivmates; that a slizat increase of the guarding force will take cire of tbe number over the former, O, no, warden. They éfd not seek {0 know that in 1884 the Kaneas pentfentiary turned in the State treasury £25 000 abore all expensee. They wanted not to know that thc Joliet penitentinry returns the state of lilinols §100,000 per year above rung oxpenses, They cated not to have It known that the Lowa prisons and in fact most all the prisors in the United States are self-supporting, and_that th me jority of them, even Ling Sing with treasuries over the ruuniag exgensse.Th efforts of § HENCHMEN were directed to point out the fact when theis wero only o fow dozen priconers in the prison of this state it coet 77 cents per head and per day and that they proposed to run the prieon thirty years and make the samo cost ‘tonly " foriy cents per head and per day. It is a mild way to expreas it; but neves thelers tlia potcnt fact remsing that the bill if passed, practically extorts over fifteen millions dollsrs from the people of the stats. The people of Nebreska have a better oplnion of thelr representative than either the vampire who drafted,and the eliylock who Introduced Houze Roll 235 have, The record will be watched clescly, and public opinfon will forever consign ty chlivicn the supporters of this meas- ure shall it be favorably reported from ilia committes on public lands aud build fogs a3 its promoters are ;rone to boat it will, “‘Boes” Stout and his rirg of followers have already buried themselies in Ken dali’s hole and *'Cou” Buflingtcn is a fitting nutomatic aut mwatcn to pull the hole in on the who'e tot. £8"" §101 {hst e —— e IN CORRESPONDENCE B TINME 1S IDLED AWAY=SCENES ENACTRD IN THE HOUSE, Spacial Correspondence to the EEx, An anxious public, titting in tho galleries of congrees thess precious days may well feel somewhat surprised that so much valuable time is idicd away over unimportant legisla tion, when there are to many valuable meas- urea to be consrdered era the adjournment day comes. The house now meets at 10 a, m., but accomplishes very littlo more—un addi tional two hours for equabllivg, and calling the yeas and nays and counting the cyes noses—and of course there are two demo G HOW VA these considerations were not given thought, snd for cause. The bare fact that in 1877, under the clriom tances they did not want to be made public, it did cost the state 77 cents per day and capita to ke2p convicts, and that under the propored bill the average cost would be *‘oply’ 40 cents, was tbe only poict to one republican noes—anything to kil time or to prevent the paeeage of a bill that hasn't the democratic seal upon it. It doss appear, to a looker on, that measurcs are not being considered for their importance and value to the coantry, or the best iuterest of the people they aresupposed to represent, but because they are strict party considerations and essential to the politiciaus handling them, The great farce will end soon, and then for the grand entre of snother—we'l, it may be a farce to make us laugh, a drama to grow sentimental over, or a thrilling tragedy to muke us all weep, SCENES ENACTED 1N THE HOUSE now are highly secsational, Ere this can reach you, you will have read the “doiogs” of Monday between White, of Kentncky and ex-Congreseman Hill, of Ohio, who now holds the position of deputy sergeant-at-arms, and who is very susceptable to a Jittlc brief au thority from the epeaker pro, tem—DMr, Blackburn, ot Kentucky, The day beivg a very stormy one, there were buta few people in the galleries, avd there cither anxiously watching for some bill to come 1>, with an “ax to grind,” strangers visiting congress for the first time, or loafers who had sought ehelter from the bleak wind i hout, The last named were in the majori Just how the row began the galleries couldn’t tell, but it was evident somethipg was about to happen of an exciting nature, and 1n an instant everybody was on their feet, above and below, to ree the deputy ecrgeant-at-arm: rushing toward Mr. White, by his majesty, Mr. Blackburn's com- mand, and by one fell swoop, pounce upon the Kentucky congressman, who is mot a gisnt in physiiue, and therely began a strug- gle to seo who would have the floor. Things were getting exciting, especially between the wrestler but, White kept the floor, and like that old host wou d not down. 8o physical strength aving failed the ex-M, €, he bethought him- self of his power of office, his mace, that awful ux, without which he has no authority to com- pel a member to sit, even though commanded t>do 8o by the chair. By tae time Hill had his mace White had his seat, and by the time tbe mace was replaced in the corner White was on his feet again, surrounded by republi- cans all talking at once, Kelly’s voice being heard above the dinin demunding to know by what power a member could belaid violent hands upon and forced into his seat with no budge of official power. Power or no power the democrats will ixsue their majestic commands, and tho' Mr. Kelly's voice way roar like deafeniog thunder, and he likes to roar, someonc will slways bein_ at- tendance to take orders, They are devided into two classes -Thess members in the majority—those who magnificent y command, nd thosa who, servialy execute the com- mands.
