CLERK SUPERIOR COURT.
We find this office in good con
dition; the records correctly in
dexed and neatly and conveniently
kept. We notice the clerk is us
ing a record typewriter which we
commend as a great improvement
over the old style. The records
are easily read and the use of this
machine results in great saving of
record space and will be a saving
in the expenditure for record books.
COUNTY SCHOOL COMMISSIONER.
We find the county school com
missioner’s books, papers, etc.,
faithfully and neatly kept. Books
and vouchers in perfect harmony
with the exception of one clerical
error which the commissioner had
made against himself. This was
corrected. Following is the com

TARIES PUBLIC EX-OFFICIO J. P.
We find lhe various books of
these officials correctly and -neatly
kept with proper arrangement of
the same. We find correct charges
lor cost, etc. We find in the Stamp
Creek district a vacancy in the of
fice of N. P. and Ex-officio J. P. j
and rvcommeud the name of J. E. j
Barron for appointment to the ;
same. We also find a vacancy in
the Wolf Pen district in the office j
of N. P. and ex-officio J. P, and ;
recommend the name of A. J.
Brooks for appointment to the !
same. We find the court house in |
need of repair, but recommend
that as little money be spent on it
as will enable the county to use it 1
until the new building is com- j
pleted. We further recommend !
that the building and grounds of
the old court house he sold for as
large an amount as can be obtain- !
ed for it; lhe property to be deliv- j
ered to the purchaser when the
new building is completed and j
ready for use. We find the ve
randa, sash and blinds of the jail
residence in need of a coat of paint
and recommend that the same he
done. The inside of the jail res
idence is in good condition. We
find that the sinks and water clos
ets in the jail proper are in need
of some changes or repairs so as
that the refuse matter will be more
completely conducted- s into the pits
or pools on the outside. We rec
ommend that this be done’, We
find that the sanitary condition** ut
the jail house are good. The pris-i
onefs are well fed, well suppliedt
wi h heat, water, bedding and oth-J
er tnings necessary for ihti'r com-j

that it was not the 'faftlt of the

caused by an

! that the stockade at Cbuiyler Hill
, is not sufficiently heated at night.*
i We recommend that tnisbe remed-.

cpnvicts in either camp ue unne
cessarily punished. We find that
there is considerable npstir about
the conduct of the penitentiary
, warden at Sugar Hill, and after the
j report made by the committee ap
pointed'to visit the convict camp
had been made and adopted the
warden himself requested a hear
ing before our body, and we find
from the statement made before
the body that he has been guilty
of conduct which would be unbe
coming even in a private citizen,
such as drinking intoxicants to ex
cess, playing and betting at cards,
permitting the convicts to have
prize fights among themselves,etc.,
| and we regard this conduct as ex
cessively reprehensible in an offi
cial charged with such grave res
ponsibilities.
PAUPER FARM.
We find at the pauper farm six
children, three men and fifteen wo
men. Total twenty-four. Aver

and bridgers.
OWe find that the road from
Plainville to .Velairsvilie is in had
condition, and the bridge where it
cro.-se- Oothcaloga creek is in need
of repair. We recommend that
these matters have attention. We
find in many localities roads are
in very bad condition. This is
particularly tiue on loads running
through low lands and around the
different saw mills and mining
works where there is much haul
ing done. The road leading west
towards Rome from Adairsviile.
The load to Kingston by Hall’s
Mill. The road from Kingston to
wards Rome. The roads around
Iron Hill are all in bad condition.
The road over Ponder mountain is
in bad condition. Also the road lead

When a woman gives up it is because
she has gone to the utmost limit of
strength aiul endurance. It is a marvel
how women will stagger on under the
daily household burdens w hen the whole

which so many women experience, as a
result of overstrain in household cares,
there is no medicine cun equal Dr.

and nutrition. It purifies the blood of
poisons which cause rheumatism and
other painful diseases. It nourishes the

sound, healthy flesh.
There is no alcohol in "Golden Med

from opium, cocaine and all other nar

of the county be requested to di

American and Cartersville News.
COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION.
We find four vacancies in the
County Board of Education, one
caused by the removal from the
countv of the Hon. Chesley B.
Vincent, and three caused bv the
expiration of the terms of the
| Honorable George A. Veach, J.
C. Herring and H. H. Milam We
recommend that these vacancies
be filled by the appointment of
the Hons. George A. Veach, J. C.
Herring, H. H. Milam and J. O.
I agon,
tailor’s fees.
We find the jailor is being paid
thirty-five cents per day for keep
ing the inmat- s of the jail. In
consequence of the recent rise in
the price of groceries we think
this amount is inadequate. We
therefore recommend that"' the
jailor be paid forty cents per day
for keeping the inmates of the
jail
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
Your committee has as carefully
examined the books and vouchers
of the board of commissioners as
the time alloted them would ad
mit of. We find the books cor
rectly and neatly kept and that
they have kept proper vouchers
for the disbursements of moneys,
etc., with the following e:-
ception. We find that the com
missioners have overpaid them
selves and drawn from the treas
ury of the county the following
amounts in excess of the per diem
allowed them by law:
W. M. King, $33,00.
L. B. Matthews. $38.75.
Will Rowland, $24.00.
Thomas Jenkins, $24.00
A. M. Puckett, $12.00.
That these amounts in excess of
their per diem have been drawn
from the treasury since the first
day of January, 1901. We rec
ommend that in our general pre
sentments we reiterate the request
made by the general presentments
of the grand jury at the January
tetm, 1901, that the county com
missioners and ex-county com
missioners, who have drawn more
funds from the treasury than the
per diem of $2.00 for twenty days
ot each year be by said county
commissioners and ex-county com
missioners refunded t > the treas
ury of Bartow county, and in the
event of their failure to do so by
the first day of June next, we rec
ommend that George W. Hen
dricks, ordinary of Bartow coun
ty, institute suit in the name of
said county against said commis
sioners and ex-commissioners to
recover said fund back into the
treasury with any and all legally
accrued interest thereon. In or
der to lessen the burden of paying
for the new court house as much
as possible, we recommend that
the commissioners order an elec
tion submitting to the people the
question of issuing the bonds of
the county to the number of thirty
of one thousand dollars each, to
bear interest not to exceed five
per cent, per annum. These bonds
to be payable as follows:
SIO,OOO at the expiration of ten
years.
SIO,OOO at the expiration of fif
teen years.
SIO,OOO at fhe expiration off
twenty years.
This would invo've an annual
charge as follows:
For the firstten years annually (
about Seventy cents on the one
thousand dollars. For the-rie'xt
fiveyfeatrsin which the ten thou
sand dollars principal will be paid
will require for principal and in
terest three thousand dollars an-1
rtim?FTy ora tax- levy of about'
eighty cents on the one thousand
do.lanr. For the, ’ast five years
twenty-five hundred, dollars an
nually for principal and interest,
requirii g a tax levy of seventy
cents on the one t ousand dollars
when all the.bonds will be retired
and paid off. The interest charge
can be reduced bv re-investing the
sinking fund. We therefore rec
ommend that in the event the
Abends are issued the couuty com
missioners apply to the general
assembly of Georgia lor the pass
age of an act authorizing the ip
vestm.ntof the sinking fund in
t safe securities, and by this means
feduce.the interest charge that we
would be paying on the bonds by
getting interesti on our sinking
fund. In this way the interest
charges may be greatly reduced/-
By adopting the foregoing means
we would with very little taxation
annally pay-for the court house
building and distribute the bur
den so as not to be appreciably
felt by the people and so shape the
matter as that those coming after
us can pay for t icir enjoyment'of
a first-class court house. We rec
ommend that the tax levy for the
year 1902 for county purposes be
at the late of forty cents on the
one hundred dollars.
We find that the countv is often
put to the expense of keeping in
jail for a considerable time parties
who are under commitments from
the various courts for misdemean
or offences and who are unable to
give bond for their appearance to
answer to the eharges alleged
against them. We therefore rec
ommend that the general assem
bly of Georgia be requested to
pass an act abolishing the right of
demand for indictment by the
grand juiv in Bartow county so
that defendants charged with mis
demeanor offences may be put
upon trial in the city court as in
cases where no demand for indict
ment by the grand jury is made.
We most cordially extend to our
efficient, courteous and affable
clerk our thanks for having our
general presentments type written
on his very valuable machine. We
heartily congraulate our fellow
citizens on the fact that we have
such competent and painstaking
officials as Judge A. W. Fite and
Solicitor General Sam P. Maddox.
In taking leave of these gentlemen
we extend to them our sincere and
heartfelt thanks for the kind aid
courteous attention which our body
has rcceiveu at tueir hands during
the present session: We recom
mend that these presentments 1 e
l-u dished in the Cartersville Cou
raut and Adairsville Banner for the
usual fees and division of the same.

minority report upon the question
of bringing suit for the recovery 01

legally paid certain county com
missioners for services rendered

ist. We do not believe that socb
action should be taken as we are
advised that the act creating the
board of county commissioners for
said county is susceptible of being
construed differently from the views
of the majority of the committee,
and was meant and intended tp
permit extra services and time to
said commissioners.
2d. It is a fact that a grand jury
of this countv put in force the al
ternative road law and established
a chaingang which materially in
creased the labors and responsibili
ties of the commissioners, aud that
it would be unjust and unfair and
inequitable for a county like Bar
tow to demand for its officials their
time and labor without compensa
tion, Bartow county is not an ob
jec; of charity, and we do not be
lieve that its citizens who will con
scientiously consider the question
would favor such a course as pro
prosed.
3rd. We are informed that all
plains for these payments over four
fears old are barred bv law and
suits against those who receive ;
.such witHfn the four years
aloifle act of injustice
whe . fTOy Vecovefy should he h; and
they ortly wotlkl be subject to re
payment and the others escape, an 1
generally we feel that such coi rse
j would be unfair and work injus
tice. . 4
We therefore recommend that
■nothing be done in the matter asiti
our opinion it would' involve the
county in needless expense and
[litigation.'

VFe.„ the qpdersigned grand ju
rods, after braking calculation!,find
that the taxpayers of Bartow coun
ty will have to raise $52,000 to pay
the bonded debt of $30,000,.as rec
ommended by this body. We des
ire to go on record as opoosed to
said issue. Neither do we see the
necessity of raising $30,000 in addi
tion to the $20,000 raised by the
levy of 1901, and the old court
house worth perhaps $4,000, mak
ing all told a cost to the people of
$76,500 for a $43,475 court house,
which was to hafe been a $30,000

We the undersigned members of
the grand jury cannot concur in
that portion of the general present
ments in reference to the warden
at the Sugar Hrll convict camp.
We do not believe that the facts be
fore this body justifies the severe
criticism of that officer. That if
chargeable with any misconduct it
is venal and has not been of such
a character, in ©ur opinion, as the
presentments would indicate. We
are of the opinion that there has
been no willful or intentional mis
conduct or acts in the premises.
We therefore submit this dissent
