Strikers Return to Jail.

Columbus, Indiana, recently inaugurated the system of putting all the county prisoners to work on the public highways. The ten prisoners in the jail who have been putting in hard work on the roads went on a strike Wednesday and refused' to work any longer, declaring that they were being worked as hard as employes of the city who receive $2 a day. They were returned to the jail.
