StOCkmen Declare
Local Jail is Too
Far Away from Home
Inspect Douglas County Structure
Like Tenants Looking for Light
Housekeeping Rooms.

Indications now denote that William G.
Comstock. Charles c. Jameson and other
defendants in the northwestern Nebraska
land fraud cases. under sentence to serve
terms Of imprisonment, will be sent to the
Adams county Jail At Hastings instead OF
the Douglas county jail, as stipulated In
the original sentence.
These defendants are pleading for a
change OF location. They do not want to
serve their sentences in Douglas county
and various reasons are set forth. one Of
these reasons is the congested condition Of
the local Jail, and another reason Is that
Douglas county Is remote from their sec
ton Of the state, and for business reasons
they prefer to be nearer home. The Dawes
county Jail at Chadron is the first choice
OF the defendants. but District Attorney
Howell has not consented to that location.
He however, Is said to be willing to permit
change to Hastings, and has so recon-
mended to the attorney general, in whom
Is vested the power TO grant transfer from
one jail to another when sufficient cause
Is shown.
The mandate from the United States
court of appeals which makes it final that
COmstock and his associates must go to
jail. gives them until December to sur
Omaha awaiting decision Of their plea to
go to some Jail other than Douglas county.
II think we may have a decision in this
natter tomorrow" said District Attorney
Howell, Tuesday
II is rather anomalous for prospective
prisoners to be shown through jail with
a view to determining il they care to take
Apartments there, yet that IS just what
has been done in the case OF Comstock and
Jameson. They have made thorough in
spection Of the Douglas county jail, Sheriff
Bradley escorting them through much af
ter the fashion Of a landlord or landlady Of
an exclusive family hotel showing rooms
to tenants-about-to-be
After a thorough inspection, here is what
Mr. Comstock said
The architecture OF the Douglas county
jail is splendid; the cuisine is not quite so
good. but that doesn't make much differ
ence and the service is fair, the cells are
well kept and probably would do. Really,
the worst objection to a years imprison-
ment in this jail is that It is too far from
home"
