County Officer's Books,
We have examined the books ot the
various oounty ofiioers, and find them
well and neatly kept.
Tbe books ot the justioei of the
peace in the various districts of the
oounty, with twoexoeptlons, have been
examlaed and fouod correct. Jnetloe
T. W. Lamb of tbe ISB6 District re
ports no oass and no book, while Jus
tice Sapp, of tbe same District, failod
to present bis books tor examination.
Public Schools,
We are pleased to report that onr
city sobool* are In excellent condition,
and are presided over by an efficient
corps of teachers and an abl* and con*
soienttous superintendent.
In tbe publio sohools ofjth* city tba
> white enrollment Is 510; oolorad 370
average atteodanoe 454 white*, and 297 |
oolorad,
Connty schools, white 60S, with an
avarage attendance of 120 or a fraction
lase than 65%, while that of the color
ed enrollment is 1,009, with an average
attendance of 700 or 70 par oent.
We have to not*, [regretfully, that
our rnral whit* sobool* are so very
poorly attended,'thereby evlnolng
seeming indifferanoe of the parents
as to lha education of their children.
Public Building*
We find the Manefleld Street school
building in very good condition, with
tbe exception of a few leak* in the val
ley* of the roof and in the gutter*. We
find the water oloeete in very bad aad
unsanitary oontfitlon, alao find the
fenoes very muoh In need of repairs.
After a thorough examination of the
old academy, w* find that it ie badly In
need of rapairi, and from ite unsani
tary condition we would recommend
that ite nee ae a school building be dis
continued as soon as the recommenda
tion found below ean be put into effect.
The fenoe around this building ie also
In need of repair*,
We find tbe Itfeley reboot building
needing the following repairs; The
roof of the main building in very bad
condition, needs shingling, tbe steps
are unsafe, the underpinning ha* set
tled until the wing Is about eight or ten
Inohes lower at the north end thaD
where it jaine the main building. This
condition bae been brought about by
the high wind* of recent storms blow
ing the sand from around the pillar*,
thus allowing the building to settle
The fenca and water oiosets are in good
condition.
We find the jail In very good condit
ion, with the excepMon of the lower
flier, which is bed'* decayed. The
oause, in our opinion, is due to the fill
ing in of the yard, it having shut oat
all ventilation from the floor timbers
We find the court house in very
good condition, and In need ot no re
pairs in tbe near futnre.
We respectfully nuke tbe following
rsoommendatlonsThat a partition
be placed In each of the aesembly halls
of the Manstleld street sohool building,
and that tbe furniture now in the old
academy builJlng be piaoed therein.
This arrangement will oomfortably
house the teachers and pupils of the
primary grades, who now have to oc
cupy the old academy, Tnat a coat of
ooal tar be put on roof and well sanded.
This in our opinion, woold stop the
present leak*, and that the wood work
be given a ooat of peint. We would
urge immediate and prompt attention
be given the water closets at these
buildings, ae the present condition of
them renders them entirely inad-’quete
to meet the demands made upon them,
as several of them hsve bnt one or two
hoppers to sooommodai* a hundred or
more children ; also that the jantt >r be
furoiehed, from time to time, a suf
ficient amount of toilet paper to be
need in said clouts Ws would recom
mend that the oounty commissioners
be requested, when ths oonviott oen be
•pared from the work now in hand,
that they have the stomps now in the
oampus removed, and assist in repair
ing the fenoes, aad that the mayor and
aldermen be rrqnested to beve the
front yard oleaned off and kept in •
nett mtnoer.
We would recommend that thetilsley
•ebool building (the mein building) be
reebingled at once, at tbe present reof
is n<> protection at all from the rain,
there being large places in the roof
with nothing to keep out the rein, also
that tbe plastering over head in this
portion of tbe bnlldlng be torn off *n<
wood ceiling patio; also that the!
front step* be renewed and tbe wing
of tbe building be loyeled up and pri>
tent pillars renewed to make tbe build
ing safe. It also needs a few vriodov
glass, which would add greatly to th
comfort of the rooms.
We would recommsDl that tbe wood
en fl ior In the tow r story of the jail
be removed and a concrete fi >or put it
in.
We wju and further reccramend tbal
if the eohool board has no funds avail
able to immediately make these rnuct
needed repairs on the sohool buildings,
that a sum sufficient to ocver the ex.
pense in-orred, be spp'oprl-tcd for salt
purpose by ibs com nissionere of roads
iv and revenue,
Public Works and Convicts-
We fl *d during the year 1901 then
has bseu an avarage of 33>2 oouviou
psr month on tbe ejai -gang; we also
Hod that it has cost the county to main
tain these conviota on the public
works $1,966,00, an average of $149,00
per capita.
There bts bseu ompleted fifteen
mi es of road besides about nine months
at work on tbe Brunswiok A Birming
htm railroad. There ha* been raised
on the county firm and gathered, 409
bushels of oorp, 350 bnsbols of potatoes
•nd nine barrels of syrup. There Is
now on the farm fire oonviots one of
these net sent from the oamp siok; ht
Is now convalescent end will soon be in
condition to be sent beck to the camp.
We find the building* and premise
In a neat and orderly condition At
the camp near Fletbraneb, we find
twenty oonviots, out of this number
there was one sick. found tbe
oarup al quarters of conriois In a neat
and oomforiabls condition, so far as It
is piseiblt for the superintendent to
make it so with tents.
The oonvlcts ere getting plenty of
wholesome and well oeoked food. The
atook ie In good condition, two mules
•nd one horse. The snperintendent of
couviots has everything well in hand
•nd systematically arranged, ae far as
the movement of the convicts and ont-
fit of tbe camp Is oonoerned,
Public Roads,
On the C irtwright road three bridg
es need repair, some low places filled
and the road will be In fair oonditiou.
The Darien road is in very good con
dition, with the exception of a few
■mall bridges, some boles and the B. &
B. railroad crossing. The road from
Evelyn to Sterling, as far as we oould
judge bai not been worked in a long
time; we could see no’blng later thaD
the work done to clear tbe road of tim
bar blown down by (ho last storm, The
•hell road needs pa oniog, especially
where the timber and wood oart* pm
over it, From the end of tbe ahel
road to Old Sterling • little repairing
before tbe rain* begin would put It in
very good order. The Clayhole road
is now being giaded by the convicts,
working from Old Sterling towards
Everett City; some very nice work is
being done on this roed, but owing to
the limber earts passing over it, Borne
of it is in bad condition, From Old
Sterling to Jamaica the road it rery
good: part of the flooring of teveral
bridget it lo bad condition Tbt road to
M uat pleattnt, known at the road to
Wajne county, or Fitb-hole road, with
