Denver.-A communication received
Monday at the local land office from

indicate that there has been a rad

administration with regard to the
powers of the reclamation serv-

the land department in the past
to give the reclamation service
full power in such matters, but the

TUBERCULOSIS IN THE PRISON
Per Cent. Of Sufferers 10 Enormous
and There Seems but Ono
Remedy.

From several investigations than
have been made by the National AZ
sociation for the Study and Proven
tion of tuberculosis, 1t IL estimated
that on an average about fifteen per
cent. of the prison population of the
country Is afflicted with tuberculosis.
On this basis, out of the 10000 prison
ers housed in the penal institutions
of the United States at any given
time. not less than 10000 are infected
with this disease. II the Philippine
islands and other insular possessions
were taken into consideration the
number would be much larger. Some
of the prisons Of Pennsylvania. Kan
sas and Ohio show such shocking con-
ditions with reference to tuberculosis
that many wardens admit that these
places of detention are death traps.
Similar conditions could be found in
almost every state. and in the major
ity of cases the only sure remedy is
the destruction of the old buildings
and the erection Of new ones.
