all that may be sent, with room to spare
and at a great saving OF money to the

Il like to be somewhat consistent and
| as an advocate of protection to Amer
lean industries against cheap foreign
competition, | cannot allow myself to
advocate a system Of taking care Of
prisoners that must of necessity, to be
successful, compel the putting Of labor
| or products of labor in competition with
| cheap prison labor thereby putting a
hardship on labor that would not ad-
vocate for myself and is manifestly I'M
fair in principal and vicious in practice,
not only Gripping labor but disturbing
the business wherever such cheap pris-
on labor is employed. Nothing but
stern necessity would compel me to ad-
vocate such a system, and / shall never
favor such a system when a better and
more economical one is offered to the
city and requires only the acceptance
of the citys representatives to accom-
plish two most essential things, the
saving of money to the city guaranteed
and the doing away with consideration
of the question of employing prison.
ers at work in competitor with honest
labor that is expected to contribute its
share to the support OF all government
in this country.
"To be brief, the conditions are these:
Present cost per year Of maintaining
workhouse, $4,000; cost of maintaining
same number of prisoners at Jail for
one year, 52,75G; saving TO the city ty
committing to Jail, $3.50 per year. Now
why should a city in debt, whose reve-
nues are insufficient to meet present eX-
penses, any more than an individual or
firm, fail to save a sum Of $1,000 per
year without improvement in the SER
vice and attempt to increase unneces-
sarily the debt of the city by the cree
ton of building that is not needed and
fail to meet legitimate and absolutely
necessary expenses of the city govern
ment?
Let some ray of hope for the city's
interests appear above the cloud of
personal ambitions and personal inter-
ests and thus give the administration
some appearance of business. Sincere
ly hoping that the matter may at least
be brought back to the Police Commit
tee for the purpose of investigating how
much better we can do, and there are
many minor details which I think
could show the members Of the COM
mittee which would be conclusive ar
guments in themselves, that it is not a
question of registering a kick. but the
feasibility of putting the prisoners in
the jail on an economical plan, and 1t is
worth a trial. If not for years, let US
experiment with it one year, and we
still have time to construct a building
on the hillside where no citizen Of
Wheeling would dare to make an in
vestment of money for the amount
which is contemplated for this expendi-
ture. My advice in the matter is Look
