Governor Pierce last night ad
dressed, a letter to Warden John

letter is the result of a number
of trusties walking awy from
the wood camp near, Marion and
other ' ' outside- places In recent
weekaj . 7' -j r 'f; fff
The governor's letter backs up
the -warden, in - his policy of eco-
nomy which has caused the ; la t-
ter to use manyr trusties outside,
but' he adds that th penitentiary
was built to keep criminals away
from society.
"It Is, of course,-my policy to
save all .money possible ' at , the
penitentiary.' says the. letter. ' I
want the Inmates of that institu
tion ; to work. : I want them to
work so far as ' possible and ad
visable in pursuits that will! af
ford sufficient revenue to ' help
pay for- the prisoner's keep, i It
is my hope to make the peniten

possible. .

built to keep crihflnals away from
society. It is after all a prison
in which men sent there are to be
kept."; Although, I am not great
