JA|LOR'S SYSTEM
OF PETTY GRAFT
Prisoners at CITY Jail Have to "Come
Through" 10 Send Word Ia
Friends.

This story is just a little incident of
the present day police affairs.
one Sunday. exactly July "a, three
young fellows. all residents OF Salt
Lake and living with their parents.
were arrested in Liberty park towards
3 o'clock In the evening. They were
booked at the police station at sos
o'clock. The fact that all three. upon
their hearing Tuesday in the police
court, We're released Is simply an Incl
dent 20 the real story OF the police
graft
one OF the boys arrested, Julius Jones.
at the time OF his being booked had
81 upon his person. AT the time OF hts
being booked his bail was fixed at $2J
by the desk sergeant. He asked per
mission to call up friend and was told
he could do that through the jaiior.
Between and O'Clock he, within his
cell. called the day Tailor three different
times and asked that the friend be COM
municated with. The day TAILOR was
too busy and when the night jailor
came on at o'clock, the youth, pacing
the jail corridor. called him six differ
ent times, asking that the friend be
communicated with. IL was about half-
past 10 O'Clock when one of the inmates
Of the Jail. taking pity on the green
young fellow, tipped" him on by ask
ing, Have YOU got any money out
there in front?" (meaning the desk SER
geant's ofhce).
When told yves. I have 81 there" the
other prisoner laughed, saying, We'll
you cant get any word outside the
Jail until you come through with the
Tailor"
The lad understood and tho next
time the jailor was called. he asked
the jailOr how much IL would cost TO
telephone his friend. The jailor thought
that 1t would require at least 90 cents
for a messenger, and an order was
given to the front office for the 90
cents. The jailor cashed the order and
then stepped across the hall to the
office OF the chief Of police, and act
inc the part Of the messenger, VINO
had received the so. cents, called up
the friend.
Although Chief of Police Barlow and
his lieutenants were later made ac-
quainted with the facts the petty graft
of the city Jail was not suppressed, nor
was the jdilor censured.

Il consider the Mormon people the
highest type Of patriotism to be tput d

which placed them In the lead was not
when they sent men out to protect the

battalion 10 fight the MexiCans; not
when they sent their boys To- the Philip
