The suceess of the i cxperiment here has been marked that it felt there v ry justification for broadening its field. Eight prisoners jail at Skagway will form " volunteer labor, Marshal White said. Only men who desire to do co will be put on it, as was the case here. The movement for extending the experiment to Skagway was initiat- ed by the City Council of that community. It petitioned the Marshal and pointed out that the City finances would not permit the work to be done by paid labor, and less prison labor could be used would not be done.
