. Salem, Or., Feb. 13. Ten days aco
the nous sent Representative Stott'a
bill," providing for the transportation
of prisoners from the. county of their
commitment 'to the penitentiary, by
guard sent after them by the warden
f the penitentiary, to the ways and
means committee of the house. It car
ried a small appropriation, and under
the rules of the house was required to
be sent there. It is still there.
The ways and means committee has
been a pretty busy body of men, and It
has been considering Institutional
. needs, so it has had coma reason for
not taking up the Stott bill. But with
five days of the session remaining arid
' the bill not yet passed by' the house,
It Is rapidly drifting near the danger
line beyond which no house bill may
aafely go and live through the mael
strom of the closing hours of the
session.
Would Save State Money.
. The Stott bill is a good bill and
would save "a great deal of money to
the state were It to be enacted into
is law,' Just as the enactment of the stat
ute which changed the old system of
transporting patients to the asylum
has saved thousands of dollars annu
, ally at that institution.
1 - The sheriffs of the state are against
, the Stott bill, and so is Warden Mur
phy. lie contends that the present
' cumbersome and expensive system, by
which the sheriffs bring prisoners to
the penitentiary, keeps these officials
in closer touch with the penitentiary
than would bo the case were penlten
.: tlary guards to be sent after convited
fnen.
Under the system now in effect at
. the asylum, which the Stott bill would
put into effect at the penitentiary, it
cost the asylum during the past two
years an average of $6.10 per capita to
bring insane patients from the point
of commitment to the asylum. ,
Convict Cot Double.
During the same period of time the
,;, average cost of transporting convicts
to the penitentiary under the old sys
tem of personally conducted trips by
' . the sheriffs of the state was $15.26.
- Representative Stott is now trying
, to get his bill passed upon by the ways
and means committee, and reported out
to the house where it can be considered
Upon Its merits. In view of the great
.showing of economy made by the
-asylum in transporting patients over
