Judge already had convinced him this city
needs rock pile or workhouse for con-
Armed Migrants. many of whom declare il
a pleasure TO do business with the police
judge in winter time, when he gives them
thirty days in the county jail.

thorities OF a number of cities where work
houses are maintained and has asked for
information along that line. The police
judge is going to bring the matter before
the city council in due course of time. Mr..
Crawford believes breaking rock for the
city's municipal paving plant would relieve
the city and county OF the expense of
boarding indolent men who drift here in
numbers and are sentenced time and again
for vagTancy.
