The Alabama convict leasing system faces fierce pushback from free miners led by local officials and workers across Jefferson, Walker, Tuscaloosa, Blount and Shelby counties. The Tennessee Coal and Iron company pays about $8 monthly per convict and assigns a five ton daily task, with convicts earning 30 cents per ton while free miners receive 50 cents. Critics warn convicts depress wages, invite crime, and attract ex-convict settlement, while legislators pledge action to end leasing.
