 The county experienced a loss of $s,- 132.01 in the operation of the jail at Brooklyn during the last financial year, the report of the commissioners of Wind ham county shows. This is in dierct contrast to the profits of several thous- and dollars that the institution used to show each year when men were commit ted to jail in much larger numbers than was the rule before the advent of pro- hi0itiOn- This is not an argument in favor of men, or women, getting them selves jailed in order that this particu- lar institution shall be an asset rather than a liability. It merely calls atten- tion to an impressive change.
