Of $500 ON County
Bastile.

Be Lined With Steel and

Drunks and Migrants.

The supervisors have awarded a con-
tract for the remodeling of the county
jail, the work calling for an expenditure
of $4,000. The changes were agreed to
because of the belief mat they We're de-
.manded to afford greater security to the
bad criminals confined therein from;
to time.
The contract has been awarded to tn
Policy Company, of St. Louis, and the
work is to be completed within ninety
days. When the present county jai, was
built it was conceded to be the best in
the state: 1t was not the intention of
the board serving at that time to have
the outer corridors used for confining
prisoners, hence the walls We're built of
brick and the ceiling was covered with
corrugated iron. The jail proper was a
series of steel cages in the center of the
main room, built In two tiers and with
steel enclosed corridors running the
length of the cages There was no
means of keeping the ordinary prison
ers such az Migrants DRINKS and those
serving short sentences for various Of
lenses, separated from the hardened
criminals awaiting trial. 1t is for the
purpose of providing means of keeping
the two classes of prisoners separate
and to prevent the escape of the bad
ones that the contract for remodeling
the interior of the prison was awarded.
The plans call for the lining of the
outer walls and the ceiling with steel.

second tier of cells. Then a steel floor
Will be extended from the walls to con-
meet with the floors of the upper cells
thus making two separate and distinct
departments. The upper cells will be
used for the worst of the criminals and

changed, will be occupied by the petty
criminals The stairway to the upper
scell room will be from the outer office
and there will be no means whereby the
petty prisoners can communicate with
or aid in any way the hardened crlmi.

the outer walls in order to afford light
and ventilation for the upper cell room
The changes have been demanded by 1
majority of the sheriffs since the pres

The United States cannot afford to
be very proud of its capture Of Agul-
naldo, the betrayed Filipino leader.
1t was a case of treachery that may
be justified in war but there can be
little glory in it. For large sum
of money paid by our government
some of Aguinaldo's own cOuntrymen
led General Funston and body OF
soldiers to the insurgents retreat in
the mountain, and by this base means
he was captured. The fact is, that
since Dewey sunk the poor old dilap-
idated ships of the Spanish navy in
Manila bay the glory obtained by this
great and powerful government could
be compressed into very small pack
age. And so far as the financial or
commercial consideration goes, it will
be many, many years before the Uni
ted States can be reimbursed for the
enormous sums that have beeen spent
upon our army and navy in the Phil
ippines, to say nothing of the leakages
and stealings.

supplies Of -four, bacon and goods of
various sorts have been stolen out

fattening off the government with the
connivance of certain officers who
were prominent in the army. A
search has revealed vast quantities OF
stores in the possession of person who
obtained them by dishonest means,
and there is no telling where the scan

clerks, three prOprietors of big baker,
