adding an6ihfir to the list of criminals who
have broke this houo used as a jail. .
v Whati8 the 1 of having Courts to
convict inon of nme if we have no place
of confinement? It is necessary that the
conuty build a reliable Iail so that when a
prisoner is once within there is no chance
for escape, . '. ' v
The old. jail was but little service and
when.it was burned, about a year ago, in.
stead of having a new . and safe one built,
the county only ha1 the old walls repaired,
making it bnt little better than none. There
is only one room in it that is any good and
it la not.6afe. ... - .
We say if the county is in debt and .uot
able to build, put up the .tax and get. the
money to bmld a docent and sate - jail, do
not let such a trap be used any longer." '
We are informed by the Deputy Sheriff
that only one brick hod to be removed
before Flerniugs wa"a free man. Is such
a prison JU to confine desperate men - in,

bo ua - -M: r. - ;
We hsk the Commissioners to see to this
