sorb tobacco and free heat in the win
ter at the taxpayers expense. TO such
a Jail sentence is a luxury n the &C
~commodations of a jail as good or bet
ter than they usually get. Being in
jail is to them no disgrace and no pun
ishment. 1t is rather, under condi-
ions of idleness and no de%privatiOns as
to tobacco or games, a good joke on
the taxpayers who furnish, mo- only
what is comfort but luxury to them.
| suggest further that well seasoned
four foot wood, a saw-buck and buck
saw be furnished in each Jail. That all
Jail sentences, where age and health
OF the prisoner will permit, be at hard
labor and that wherever practical sucn
labor sentence be enforced.
further suggest that all County
Justices and Municipal Judges be re-
quested to attach hard labor to jail
sentences.
If these suggestions and proposed
rules meet your approval | ask your
endorsement and cooperation in put
ting them in force.
Respectfully submitted,
c. G. Sherwood, Judge.

to the above matter was on motion
