Prisoners Enter from Caddo

HOW PRISON is KEPT

mates Learn Cleanliness.

Guthrie, o. T., April 2S.-Deputy Mar
shall J. NJ Jacobson last evening brought
in four prisoners from Caddo county. all
arrested for selling liquor to Indians.
They We're John Dugan, T. F. Naughty.
Santiago and Joe Catez, the two latter
being Mexicans
United States Marshal w. d. Fossett
about this thing of selling liquor to the
Indians he will begin TO set some idea
of the enormity of the crime Some of
the men convicted of selling liquor 90
the Indians are fined and given as much
as a year in the United States Jail.
He says that the reason these men
take the chances of selling liquor to the
Indians is because there is money in it.
He says the Indian, when he has money.
will give two or three dollars for a
pint of liquor.
After those prisoners were taken 10
the United States prison Marshal Fos-
sett asked the Eagle correspondent TO
go over and see the jail and to say that
sight OF the prison was a surprise to
him would be putting it very mildly.
The building is about forty-five by eighty
five feet and is two stories high with
basement. There are about one hundred
prisoners in the building. There are
white men, negroes Mexicans and a
few Indians
The visitor will be surprised at the
number of prisoners in the small build
ing and then he will be still more sur
prised at the sanitary condition of the
prison. The floors and the walls were
absolutely clean. There must have been
sixty prisoners in a large court where
they eat and sleep.
The men smoke and chew. but every
one of them is neat about 1t. When
prisoner is put into the prison he is
given a bath and a clean suit OF gov
eminent clothes and when his term of
imprisonment is out he is given his own
clothes. All of the cells and even the
kitchen were absolutely clean and in
the rear of the kitchen are wooden steps
leading up 10 the side walk and even
they were scrubbed clean and white

There are four guards in the prison.
two are on duty during the day and two
at night. They occupy a raised platform
and they are not allowed to visit with
the prisoners only to politely answer
question. When prisoner gets il into
his head that he is bigger than the
United States he is given a rest in the
dungeon One must go into this dun
geon and hear the big iron door close
on him to realize the terrible gloom and
loneliness. He will instinctlvelv try 10
push the thick darkness from before his
eyes with his hand.
1t would be safe TO say that every
man who serves sentence in this prison
goes out cleaner physically and morally
than when he entered. And another
thing, he has been taught discipline
There is just one danger and that is
that some OF the men who have served
there might want to get back.
