justice anC police courts, and none sen

Three points worth mentioning, all
these men are idle as usual, and for
that reason are necessarily = dead cost
and are not learning anything good or
helpful O. useful 60 themselves We are
BADLY IN need of 2 system whereby the
state can take all such prisoners at
once and work them on the roads Or
elsewhere in open air, and keep them
employed under conditions that viii
tend 70 make them better men. No
county can 90 much Oh this alone 1t
takes a whole state, big system ana
careful management
2 Dirt and filth too often accom-
pany these who are cast into Jail.
There Is no adequate provision for
keeping or making their persons clean
It would not be a great matter to have
a spray bulb for q shower bath put up
near the ceiling at the corner of the
laboratory where the bowl is so that
shower bath could be given each
prisoner as he comes into Jail and often
afterwards. If hot water could also be
supplied through a stove or range IN
the Court House or by a coil in the
T furnace, 1t would be vet better for i'm
f proving and lettering the men in jail.
3. From time to time among the
drifts and buns that are arrested are
some who are afflicted with the vileSt
/ sexual diseases. This is always 2
menace to the less degraded prisoners
and tends to infiict the whole jail, with
danger to all who have to DO with the
Jail. The State should take steps TO
quarantine such and, put them away
from decent people entirely.
