CLAY COUNTY MUST
IMPROVE ITS JAIL
REPRESENTATIVE OF BOARD OF
CONTROL, JAIL INSPECTORS
AND BUILDERS OF JAlLs WERE
BUSY ABOUT CLAY COUNTY
JAIL TO-DAY.

Evidently the time has come when
the authorities of Clay county viii
have to put the county jail in shape
TO conform with the law in every par
ticular. To meet the requirements OF
the board of control the county board
is up against the proposition OF prac-
tically building new jail house.
1t is said that the state board now
requires that the work be done within
a reasonable time, or the board Will
order the building closed, as all the
ieniency possible has been exercised.
This morning, an inspector from the
Office of the board Of control made a
thorough inspection Of the building
and it is reported that he is anything
but satisfied with the conditions found
in the Clay county Jail. New walls are
needed, a system Of ventilation must
be installed, there must be more
light, in fact so much is needed 10
meet the requirements of the state
laws in regard to county jails that
to fulfill the demands practically
means the erection of a new building
and equipment entirely. This after
noon the county commissioners, the
representatives of the board of con-
troll and Judge Nye, together made
thorough inspection Of the building,
inside out and out, with view Of
reaching some determination and basis
upon which to take some definite ac-
tion in the matter.
