NUMBER IN PRISON NEARING
RECORD DECLARES lyman

Canon City, July lS-The count at
the Colorado state penitentiary shows
Il prison population OF 1872, which is
the highest for several years and
which is nearing the high water mark
of anti-prohibition days.
Following the adoption Of statewide
prohibition the prison population grad
ua!ly decreased from more than 500
to something like $50, the count on
November so, 1918 being sol, or 22l
less than that of today.
Warden lyman attributes the great
increase in the number of prisoners
during the last two years to the post
war crime wave which swept the coun-
try and filed the prisons in every state
in the Union. Had the saloons been
open the last two years, there would
not be room in Canon City prison for
accommodation of the population, in
the opinion Of the warden.

better and more economical food: or
utensil that would add immeasur-
