Another phase of the liquor traffic
has increased the number in jail mate
rally in the last week and there bids
fair to be more prisoners committed
there this week, for Judge III. B. Howe
has sentenced several to the jail while
those who have been unable to pay
fines have gone to Jail in lieu of that
penalty. When federal court opened
last Tuesday there were three prison
ers in the jail, while last night there
were 10. At one time last week there
were 2S. Possibly some of those who
are now in Jail may be able TO raise
the amount of their fines and therefore
be discharged later.
