MEXICAN PLEADS
GUILTY TO MURDER
Is Not Affected by Sight of
Bloody Knife Used to
Kill Rival.

With the same air of bravado that
he evidenced when he was arrested on
a charge of numbering Gregoio Navar-
cite on Nov. II, Jesus Perez declared in
Justice Watson's court this morning that
he had stabbed Mrs. Rita Marshall to
show her that ne was a man.
Justice Watson again showed him the
blood stained knife, with which he had
ended Navarette's life and had disfig-
ured the Marshall woman. and. with
eyes staring at the steel. he grinned
sardonically, and. with a shrug OF his
shoulders, he sat down and gIared at
the woman whose life he attempted to
take.
Mrs. Marshall. who was reported miss
ing. had not left FL Paso but was with
friends in the southern part of the city
and did not know the authorities want
ed her until a few days ago, when they
found her. %ssS
She appeared in the Justice court this
morning and Perez was bound over TO
the grand jury in the sum of $500 on a
charge of assaulting her with intent to
murder.

Conyicts and Public Roads.

In the course of an address before the Florida
editors by Governor Gilchrist, it developed that
marlborough county in that State has 10 miles OF
good roads, 25 miles of clayed, IS of rock and %
cf shell. The totals for the State are 2,120 miles
Of hard road, GA miles of graded road and 300
miles of strawed road The Governor advocates
great State highways formed by the joining OF
county roads-and he declares unequivocally for
the working of county convicts on the public high
ways why not advocate a law, he says, for
bidding the leasing of county convcts, requiring
their employment Of county roadsf Orange county
has set fine example The last Legislature appro-
priated $4,000 for the establishment of a State
prison farm. This is entering wedge toward
the adjustment Of the leasing of State prisoners.
3 1t is argued by some that the working of con-
victs on the public roads costs more than it comes
IA. w do not believe it. But suppose it does. 1t
Is a most humane way 10 employ the conyicts and
such employment does not bring the prisoners into
cOmpetition with free labor. But leaving all other
.considerations out of the question: the convict
squad is an inducement to the counties getting
the benefit to improve their roads. In this way
the convcts become an agency OF progress and a
public benefit.
That is surely IA far better use to make of them
than to employ them in penitentiary factory.
