nenrly one half of the convicts arc
lying around in absolute Idleness and
many of them told tho committee thnt
they in pelf preferred something to dc
that they might feci better. Tho com-
mltttee declares that the convicts arc
faring much better than half tho ten-
ant formers of Texas. They say the
prisoners are well fed excellently
clothed (but few of them now wear
the stripes) and have many luxuries
denied the average citizen of Texas
They have a big library bands and
orchestra to furnish music for their
lazy souls and every man has the
privilege of n free school which Is In
progress dally.
At Rusk there Is one halt a million
dollars worth of as fine machinery iih
Is In the South. All this fine equip-
ment Is standing Idle and moat of the
convicts aro kept on the farms whom
they are not kept busy over half the
year. Only 22 are now at Rusk and
600 at HuntHvlllo. Tho penitentiaries
havo furniture wagon shoe struc-
tural material clothing and box fac-
tories. At some of these there are
now cars of products stacked up un-
sold and all the factories standing
idle.
The chief recommendation of the
committee Is for the etstabllshmeut
of' a big sales agency by displacing
somo of tho present employees with
inn competent for this job and thereby
entailing no further expense. The
recommendations will also be made
that all the convicts be given plenty
of work and keep the factories going.
Another big necessity of the system
Is that it havo cooperation with the
State purchabing department bo that
the many products turned out by the
convict labor be used by the State
institutions and save a big item for
t'io State at both ends of the Hue.
I ha committee compares the pen-
itentiary system as It is managed at
present to the average tenaut farmer
who buys all his supplies on the cred-
it paying from 10 to 50 per cent on
hfa supplies for three fourths of the
year and then having nothing to sell
except In the fall and then sells that
at leas than the cost of pioductlon.
An instance of the small judgement
used by the management is given by
an item from the invebtigatioa com-
mittee's report. The cyatcra gold to a
big firm -2200fla gallons lit iirup. id
20 cents per gallon and 100000 pal-
Ions more at 25 cents p'.r gallon i'bs

firm had sold the syrup to the StaTc
eleemosonary instltuMons at 60 cunt3
per gallon. The penitentiary system
sells thousands oi t-0oi trom the va
rious farms but dot4 ret use any of
them for feeding tho prisoners but
sell them to the big packing compa-
nies and then pa a big prica for Ua
packing house pwoacn- The system
now owes Armu.ir Company $sf5l-0
and Swift about $10000. The system
manufactures as fine furniture as can
be found any where and the commit-
tee says that desks are sold at the
penitentiary to wholesale furniture
dealers at $4 a piece and the State
paya $40 for the same desks for the
various departments ar th$ Capital.
The committee failed to itarc jay-
thing concerning tbe penitentiary

that the bookkeeping Is almost nose-
