county or group of counties in the
state want to construct a road that
will give 200 or more convicts en-
ployment for the next year.
He has decided it will be more
satisfactory to work the convicts on
the construction of one big road than
to divide them into small groups
working at different places in the
state and will have between 200 and
$50 convicts ready for road work this
spring.
