Atlanta, Nov. 19.-Having had its
railroad commission copied by the
state of Washington, Georgia is ap-
parently now to be further honored
by having some features of it's prison
commission initiated by the State
of Texas.
1t was only short time ago that
Washington adopted the Georgia rail-
road commissions rule on reciprocal
demurrage, which are said to be the
most advanced of any state in the
Union.
Now the Texas prison commission
has sent its secretary, Col. F. A. Pal

methods of handling and working the
convicts, which are also said to be as
up to date as any in the Union.
Attention of Texas has been at
tracted to Georgia by the fact that
the convicts are used to build up good
roads.
In that state the $500 state con-
victs are now used On prison farms
and in manufacturing plants operated
by the state at its penitentiary. The
comparative advantages of putting the
