even those who sell only one line. For instance, there are
three music houses in Athens who sell nothing else, and we
have sold more Pianos than all put together. _ Wedo not
charge our expense to any one line, and this is where we
can undersell any competitor and yet make the same profit.
Isn’t this common “horse sense”?

General Presentments.
The following, reports of the

Treasurer <>r Jackson county, reach
ed ns too late for publication in the
(brand Jury presentments last week,
hence we produce them this week.
—Editor.
COMMISSIOXKRs’ KKPOKT.
To the Honorable (brand Jury, Feb
ruary 'Perm, 1910:
An act of the legislature requires
the board of commissioners, through
their chairman, to supmit to your
honorable body, at each term of the
court, a statement, in writing, cov
ering the financial condition of the
county, its roads, bridges, public
buildings and paupers, and make
such suggestions as they deem best
for the county, and under this law
I submit to you the following re
port :
Finances. —As to the condition of
the county treasury, 1 refer you to
the reports of (J. \V. Bailey, treas
urer, and \V. T. Appleby, tax col
lectoi, which reports will cover our
financial state of affairs, with the
exception of outstanding indebted
ness, incurred by my predecessor,
of twenty-one hundred and eighty
two dollars, note given for the pur
chase money of a traction engine,
which we have had extended to De
cember Ist, 1910. Our hoard saw
lit to sell said engine, and we have
a note to the amount of 5756 (X),
due December Ist, 1910, for same.
Roads. —As to our public roads,
will say that wc have been giving
our best efforts to make all the im
provements possible for the past
year with our convict crew, and
have instructed our district commis
sioners to spend all the commuta
tion tax, not already expended, to
the very best advantage in their
several dist ricts.
The rules of the prison commis
sion required us to go into winter
quarters and construct a. permanent
stockade for the protection of our
foice during the bad weather.. We
have done this, and are at present
located on the county farm, an*l/are
at work on the Maysville road. We
respectfully invite your whole hotly
to visit our works and quarters and
pereonally inspect our condition
and see what we are doing
As soon as the bad weather is
over we expect to go hack to the
work left off between Hoschton and
Pendergrass, and take up our regu
lar routine of work of going from
district to district till wc visit every
section of the vvhoe county.
And right in this connection, we
wish to thank the good citizens of
every section already visited for
their courteous treatment of our
force, and the magnanimity shown
in letting us have rights of way for
needed changes, top soil, etc , with
out cost to the county.
Paupers. —Our board dm mod it
best to take charge of our farm and
raise our own supplies as far as pos
sible, and to that end vve have
made our warden superintendent of
the paupers, and have him and his
family installed in the superinten-
dent’s home, and they are looking
after the iimmt.es of the home. We
have repaired, covered and 1 milt
verandas and made oilier necessary
improvements to ado to the cpjnfort
of our inmates.
Bridges. —We have our bridges in
fairly good shape, having re floored
and covered several, and are keep
ing up all repairs as best we can.
We have contracted for a steel
bridge, to replace the main span of
the Academy bridge, for the sum of
$900.00, which we had hoped to
have in place now, as our contract
called f<>r its completion not later
than February 11th, 1910.
Public Buildings. —We have all
our public buildings in good condi-
tion. We have installed a water
main connecting our tank with the
j pumping station of the Jefferson
I Cotton Mills, and have satisfactory
l arrangements made with them to
furnish the court house and jail
with pure spring water. We have
purchased and parti foi JO.To acres
of land adjoining the county farm,
at the price of $35 00 per acre,
making a total of sl, 285.55 We
have purchased and put in nine car
loads of sewer pipe at an expense of
•SI ,001.00, replacing a great number
of small bridges, and thereby reduc
ing the annual expense of keeping
up same, as lumber is getting high
and scarce.
We have paid during the year
1909 indebtedness, incurred and
brought over from 1908, to the
amount of $3,280.81.
We have bought four good mules
at an expense of $829.00, and swap
ped five old mules for five young
mules, paying $587.50 difference.
We have bought and added to our
equipment two road machines at an
expense of $310.00. The lumber
for stockade, etc., cost #084.32.
