SPECIAL NOTICE TO MEN

oner shows TO said judge good cause
TO the contrary. order any male per-
son convicted OF a misc emcanor. or OF
any offense deemed infamous in law
to be delivered by the jailer
of such county or city. to or upon
the order OF the Superintendent OF the
Penitentiary, TO work in the state con-
vict road force
I'm my opinion this law is manda
tory. and the judge is required to de-
liver all OF the prisoners referred to
in said section TO the Superintendent
of the Penitentiary when he makes ap-
plication therefor.
Your second inquiry is as follows:
Has any city or town the right,
after the Superintendent of the Ieni-
Tertiary has made demand for the pris
oners convicted of violation OF State
law, or prisoners imprisoned for fail
ure to pay hne or penalty imposed for
violation OF State law, the right 10
use any such prisoners upon its chain
gang
I'm reply TO this inquiry | would say
that in my opinion no city or town
has the right TO work upon the local
chain gang any person confined in the
iail for a misdemeanor or other viola
ton of a State law. where there has
been demand made by the Superin-
tendent OF the Penitcntiary for the de-
livery OF such person to the state con-
vice road forces.
