Academy brass band. DR.. Sheppard is
giving instructions three times each

ton much has been accomplished.
The following cadets compose the
band in their respective rolls; John

PRISONERS BUSY COST ABOUT
THE SAME AS PRISONERS IDLE
STARTLING ARGUMENTS FAVOR WORKING COUNTY ROADS
BROUGHT OUT ENGINEER AkINs REPORT

According to report submitted to
the Work House Board by Engineer
John T. Akin it costs but little more
for the county to maintain its prison
ers at work on the public road than it
does to keep them in Jail. The re-
port brings out strongly the fact that
idle conyicts are luxury, while busy
ones can do much toward maintaining
the present condition of the highways
and can assist in building new roads.
According to the report the
cost of maintaining SO hands
at work upon the road for IL
days was $S95S7. The estiamted
cost of the same number of in
mates in the county Jail would have
neen $731.60. So it is seen at what a
small margin of cost the county Sc
cured the work.
The report follows:
