such length Of time as he may deem proper.
If such a case shall arise the facts must be at
once reported to the Sheriff.
In every way the new rules provide for the
protection OF inmates not only from unjust
keepers, but from the crowd of harry lawyers
no used to infest the jail. The inmates have
full freedom OF the halls and the keepers are
forbidden ordering them about The new rules
seem TO be working smoothly. The keepers
have little trouble enforcing thein, ana
the discipline of the jail is satisfactory.
Il am glad that The Tribune has taken up
this matter of civil arrest. said Justice Roesah.
