' The use of convict lnbor lu the 6ou structlou of public works U n pha.e of economics which bus lieeu trictl iu the southern states with a greater or less meed of success, says the Motor News. Florida Is the Intent state to fall iu Hue n:u! put her convicts to work, ami roml building is the task which has been choseu for the wrougiliH'rs. This work has now beeu going ou for sonic lime, and nt the. results accomplished the Florldians express great sutisffcc tiou. Tlie work, they say. Is not only beneficial lu giving the prisoners an opportunity to do something, but the exercise aud outdoor life tend to t:ie Improvement of their health. Under the system adopted iu the reiilnsul.ir State the prison laborers eutor scarcely nt ail iu competition with their free brothers, The roads would list be built If the cost was high, and in the state olit tins the labor for the bare cost of keeping the labor ers the expense of laying out aud building n magnificent system of high ways is comparatively slight. Along tlio east coast of Florida there are inexhaustible- quarries of cocbiua rock, while in the district lying south of Daytonn to New Smyrna grejit quantities of oyster shells are to be found. Both furnish excellent ma terials for road building. Thus Florida has close at hand an abundant and cheap supply of road material. The coclilna rock Is soft and easily quarried. It requires but simple ma chinery to crush It, some of It being merely granulated beneath rollers aft er It is placed on the surface of the road. The beautiful baths at Palm CONVICTS AS ROAD WORKF.UH. Iteuch are made of coclilna rock, and it has been used lu the construction of the excellent road which has recently been completed between Palm Beach and Miami. Itouds on which this material has been used require but little repairing, the experience having been that they Improve with age, the stone being ground down until it Is like the finest macadam. On the southern automobile circuit the motorists recently encountered many crews and gaugs of convicts at work nlong the I'alm Beach-Miami road. They also fmssed a convict camp where the prisoners were en gaged iu mining the coclilna rock at the roadside. The convicts ure worked lu gangs of half a dozen or so. They are under guard of a keeper, who carries a load ed rifle, while dogs are kept at hand to track any prisoner who might feel impelled to take French leave. This, however, rarely happeus. Florida is uot a land lu which one would be tempted to run away. Model Mountain Hood. J. C.
