1. The various cities, towns and villages in this state, whether organized under special charter or under the general laws of the state, are hereby authorized and empowered to, by ordinance, cause all persons who have been convicted and sentenced by the court having jurisdiction, for violation of ordinance of such city, town or village, whether the punishment be by fine or imprisonment, or by both, to be put to work and perform labor on the public streets, highways and alleys or other public works or buildings of such city, town or village, for such purposes as such city, town or village may deem necessary. And the marshal, constable, street commissioner, or other proper officer of such city, town or village shall have power and be authorized and required to have or cause all such prisoners as may be directed by the mayor, or other chief officer of such city, town or village, to work out the full number of days for which they may have been sentenced, at breaking rock, or at working upon such public streets, highways or alleys or other public works or buildings of such city, town or village as may have been designated.

And it shall be deemed a part of the judgment and sentence of the court that such prisoner may be worked as herein provided.
