COMMISSIONERS
HEAR PROTESTS
PLEASANT STREET RESIDENTS
OBJECT LOCATION OF PRO-
4oSED CAR LINE.

Many heated arguments regarding
the proposed location of the Pleasant
street car line are being heard before
this afternoon, but up to the present
hour no decision has been reached.
Fully fifty residents living along the
proposed route appeared before the
board at 2 O'Clock and within five min
utes after the meeting was called t,
order the room was a perfect bubbub
of discordant voices.
1t will be remembered that the fran
chise for this line granted the Walla
Walla/ Traction company a right to
build line six feet to the north of the
center of the road. The residents on
the north side of the road objected tC
this move and asked that it be placed
to the south of the center of the road
and for the purpose of definitely de-
termining the location of the road the
melting was called this afternoon.
I'VE want the electric road and want
it badly said an angry citizen of the
north side, but in my Judgment the
fight will continue until the enterprise
is at last dropped"

CONVICT LABOR EXPENSIVE
FIGURES WOULD INDICATE Elk
PERIMENTS ON PUBLIC ROADS
WERE UNSUCCESSFUL.

Under a Walla Wallag date line the
Seattle Times has the following to say
regarding the employment of convict
labor on state roads:
Figures on the result of work at the
convict camp in the MethOw valley are
not completed. but the convict camp
at the Meskill rock quarry in Lewis
county was a failure, III so far as the
financial feature is concerned.
Convict labor in Lewis county was
ieven more expensive than would have
been free labor. The board of control
established the Lewis county camp as
an experiment and to demonstrate that
he board was capable of maintaining
such a camp. In results accomplished
the experiment was unsatisfactory.
The figures on the camps cost from
september Is, 1906, to March 81. 1907,
show the use of convicts is an ex-
lpensive luxury unless a radical reform
lis made.
! During the 1877 days of the camp
there were 33 days lost as holidays and
Sundays. This loss of Is ga per cent
/ of time is no greater than would have
been experienced with free labor. A
! total of 3106 days work was done by
1.-THE convic:s in the camp at the quarry.
1T cost $4.119.74 to maintain the con-
vict camp. daily average of $20.91.
The cost per capita was $1,326 per day.
! 1t is customary by prison authorities
lin estimating the value of cOnvicts'
Iwork 20 figure that three free COM
mon laborers will do as much work as
five convicts. This was the experience
lof the convict camp at the Meskill rock
quarry. On that basis the convict work
was costing at the rate of 1882 for free
common labor
| During the period the convict camp
was maintained it would have been
!possible to procure free common labor
much cheaper than 1882 per day and
for similar work in road building III the
interior common labor can be had at
cheaper wages now. Unless the board
! of control can make a better. showing
on the Methow valley road, the use of
Iconvicts under the present administra-
,tion will be too expensive to justify the
|practice.
