The Real Solution.

If the county commissioners
will compel the working of coun-
ty prisoners there will be a de.
crease in crime. Not one-tenth
of the prisoners, the chronic kind,
will want another chance at work.
This thing of feeding them and
letting them lie in Jail and bleach
out is bad public policy, and it Is
not good for the prisoners.
A large number of fellows who
60 to jail would as soon be in as
out, but if they had to work they
would take the other turn and
try to keep out. It is absolutely
no punishment to the ordinary
petty criminal to confne him in
Jail.
The county commissioners
have the key to the whole situa-
ton. If they will work the pris.
oners out on the roads, they will
non have so many prisoners to
take care of, and crime will de-
crease.
