The food they feeding is not fit, for
the men who have done hard days
work as hard labor " they finding the
prisoners nothing but salt aku every
day except Sunday lunch and Wednes
day supper just think what kind of
jail is this. '

news In one' of your spare space
your paper. ;
We are very anxious to know if that
law have only pass 4n the county jail
of Honolulu about the good time taken
off one month to one year.
In Honolulu county jail when any
prisoner go to work the chief of the
jail let the men know" you go to work
and by going to work we will take
six days from every month which you
work, but if you don't - go to work
you will served your full sentence
which the judge have giving to you.
But in this county jail of ,Maui their
is no good time giving for one
months up to five months, this is a
funny thing besides we are not sup
pose to do It as hard labor breaking
rocks. Gentlemen and fellow-citizen
of the territory of Hawaii, Just think
about this I think with this few lines
I will enclose it. ,
Nothing more important to relate
at the present time.
We have understand the jailer is
buying meat for the jail but the whole
trouble is the jailer himself is eating
the meat himself instead of the pris
oners. Closing thi3 letter, .
