CONVICT LABOR ON ROADS.
The Experiment Likely to Be Tried
In New York State.

The Experiment Likely to Be Tried
In New York State.
Commenting on the enforced idleness
of convicts in the state penal institu'
tions, the New York Tribune says edi.
torially:
The suggestion which was some time
ago made in these columns that able
bodied inmates Of prisons and peniten'
tiaries be set at work building improved
roads seems at last to be acted upon to
considerable extent and with crafty
ing results. The convicts in the state
prisons are as rule otherwise employ
ed, but those in charge Of the peniten-
tiaries have not been able to provide
work in prison shops for the prisoners
under their control and so have sought
It outside. In eight or more counties
Of this state the penitentiary prisoners
are employed either at roadbuilding
or at crushing stone for roadbuilding.
It Is not known that any bad effects
have been experienced from the under
taking, while the good effects are nu-
merous and obvious. Among the latter
these are conspicuous: The prisoners
have the physical and moral benefit OF
healthful labor in the open air; the pris-
oners are made to pay their way In
stead Of being heavy charge upon the
community; the construction of good
roads is promoted, and the cost Of them
is decreased, and the number Of prison
ers is diminished, for tramps and other
"sons Of rest avoid counties where
committal to the penitentiary means
stone breaking and roadbuilding. 1t
may be added that one Of the chief OBJ
jections to the systematic offensive
parading Of convicts in the public view
has been found groundless, for no
one would take the penitentiary prison
ers working on the roads to be other
than ordinary laborers.
There Is reason to believe that this
system might pro6tably and properly
be extended throughout the state and
be applied to the inmates Of state pris-
ons as well as Of penitentiaries, when
other work fails. The prisoners might
also be employed at repairing and
maintaining the roads after they are
built. Most Of the prisoners ut Sing
Sing are now at work, but it Is not
long since most Of them were idle and
were seriously suffering, morally and
physically, from enforced idleness, and
yet within a few hours drive from
Ossining are hundreds Of miles Of
roads that are in their badness q re-
proach to the community and a cause
Of vexation and of actual pecuniary
loss to all who are compelled to use
them. We do not mean, Of course, that
counties and towns are to wait until
prisoners can be secured to build good
roads. But whenever and wherever
ablebodied prisoners are idle the re-
proach of bad roads Is aggravated two
fold. All roads should be made and
kept good, and all prisoners who are
able to work should be kept at health-
full and profitable work. Those are two
rules which should be constantly OBJ
served and between which an intimate
relationship Is to be found. q,

said, "heaped personal abuse upon him."
Richardson and Williams were lessees OF the
Greenville News, and the senator proposes to
settle with Richardson, who, to say the
least, was very remotely connected with Will

with the good roads problem is The
rapid extension Of the electric traction
systems into the rural districts. Not
content with the immense volume OF
earnings of the intramural systems, the
street railway interests have Invaded
the country with long interurban lines
that are already projected all the way
across large states, says H.. w. Perry
in Good Roads Magazine.
These street railways, or electric trac-'
ton roads, are not to be ignored by the
good roads workers. They must be

apring that keeps him going. aud he can
mAstioate with relish juicy steak or a
piece Of pie, and at the same time de-
vote some attention to his affairs. In
the leading local restaurants the rustic
will cape in astoDishment to hear To-
cal merchant or professional man seated
at an adjoining table call out: wait
or bring me a bottle Of beer, a sandwich
and a phone" His astonishment will
only Increase when the white aproned
waiter briskly responds to the custom
sr's order, and appears. bearing a tray
with the food and drink. and carrying
with the other hand a finely polished
oak board with a telephone transmitter
and a slot toll box fastened to it.
To the trsnsmitter is attached the
wire, at the end Of which Is a plug.
Adjusted 10 the wall is the switch called

Il Is a common occurrence to see
guests in the luncheon or dinner hours
