MIR Dean called up the bill to establish Co.
work houses, which had been favorably reported
by select committee, and he opposed the further
passage of the bill, on the ground that there
would be but few in our jails who would be
proper subjects, that masters were to be appoint
ed with salaries, which would burden the coun-
ties, and the change of these masters with the
change of Judges of the court appointing them,
with the consequent change of the kind of bust
ness to be carried on, would lead to constant
trouble and losses to the county.
Messrs Sweat, Hubbard, J. p. Kidder, and
Beeman Supported Mr. Dean, and Messrs Red
field, Reyes, Stewart, Colburn, and White spoke
in favor Of the bill on Tie ground that il might
be benefit to some counties, and could not
hurt those whose SITUATION did not require IT, rs
1t was left opionary to the counties 10 adopt the
system or not--tha, 1t would operate humanely
and favorably in case of juvenile offenders and
transient persons along the lines Of rail roads,
and that the people of villages and the locations
above named should have the privileges of the
system when they thought they could be bene-
flied by its adoption.
When, after some further opposition to the
bill by Messrs ]. p. kidder and French the for
mer on the ground that the partial adoption Of
