The Convict Labor RilI.

WHY THE COMMISSIONERS FAVOR THE EMPLOYMENT
OF PRISONERS ON THE STREETS
The Commissioners are In favor of the passage of
the Dill providing that any abebodied person SEN
fenced TO imprisonment in the District jal shall,
unless exempted therefrOm by the Judge be en-
poyed outside Of the jail in the day time at labor
under the supervision OF the Commission, The
commissioners have been led to this convection by
the experience within several years past of similar
employment OF the work-hOuse gang upon the
streets In the eastern portion OF the city There
Is grading work enough to keep both the work
house and jail gangs employed for fifty years to
come; come the me situation Is remote. being under the
hills OF That section, so that such employment is
not denOralizing to honest labor 1t is not pro
posed to bring these prisoners in contact with hon
est Labor AS 1t Is now, the Jail Is believed to be
ie h1tuoed OF vice from the congregating Of many
lulers together. The reports OF Superintendent
Stoutenburg from time to time show the whole
some influences OF the labor system In that insttll
ton, and that the District is being partially rejm
bursed for the maintenance OF the vicious class
who spend their lives in houses OF correction &C
The committee OF Congress, who do not favor
this Dill would find upon investigation, the Com
mlSsOners think, that the sentiment OF "demorali-
zatl9n among labor" does not apply In the case OF
the United states jail In this city and the Com
miss10ners Will strive TO so enlighten them.
