JUDGE PRAISES SOLICIT^
At rhr conclusion of tho general boh
kIoii i court for Kershaw county tills
week, Judge R H Stoll congratulatod
tin- people of Kershaw county, Solid
(or A I*' Spinner and tho other court
officials upon the excellent condition
of the docket, and lit'ttll.H connection
paid high tribute to tile manner In
which the duties of the solicitor's Office
in the fifth circuit were discharged
lis Solicitor Splgner.
Judge Stoll ?ald' "I think your dock
it Mr Solicitor. Is in unusually
good condition, and I wish publicly to
say l<> you that I consider you an ex
( optionally able solicitor I think I
know one when I see him I was solicitor
myself about nine years. For
sixteen months during the world war
I wua ii judge advocate and hrl as an
appellate court to review all court
murtials that were tried In that par
ticular jurisdiction I won't say how
many years I was at the bur. I have
been on tho bench almost eight years,
and I believe I know a good prosecuting
officer when I see him.
"There are two characteristics essential
to every solicitor, and only
two. one. he should be fearless, and
the oth? r. he should be fair And I
think >ou have both This Is a court
of justice and from the way tho affairs
of the court are administered
when the court meets, unless the Jury,
the public generally, and those who
liiiw been tried, think thai Justice has
bet n done, then the court has not
properly functioned Justice does not
lieci'S.-.iril \ mean convicting every
one: it does not mean electrocuting
every one; it does not mean sending
to the penitentiary for long terms
every one; but it means doing in
each particular case that which is
just and right for that parliifiilar
<a-e A solicitor who wants to convict
till, or who is lax and doesn't try
to convict the guilty, does not fit In.
"I have observed Mr. Solicitor, your
work before, and I believe you improve
with age It is a pleasure fori
me to preside over a court in which
you net as solicitor, and I take great
pleasure in saying publicly what I
think of you as a public officer. Somelimes
we wait until a person is dead
and gone to say nice things I do
not have many roses strewn In my
path, but I like to strew a few in
the path of those I think merit It
So I take pleasure in commending you
for the way In which you conduct the
affairs of your offlco."
Solicitor Splgner, in expressing his
appreciation of the remarks of Judge
Stoll, said it would continue to be his
earnest endeavor to merit them On
behalf of the other court officials, and
till those having business with the
i Hint It.- expressed pleasure in the
association with Judge Stoll during
the tei :n of court.

GRAND JURY PRESENTMENT

We. the Kershaw County Grand
Jury, at this, the October, 1!'3X, Term
of Court of General Sessions of Kershaw

following report:
We have passed upon and reported
to the Court on all bills presented to
us by the solicitor.
The different committees heretofore
appointed have reported to the Grand
Jury, which reports have been adopted
and are embodied in this report as
follows:
Committee on Roads and Bridges:
I'll" roads and bridges over the county
are unlfo'rtnily in good shape and
I well k"pt. except that we would call
attention to tiie Adam's Mill road,
which is had for about ten miles, as It
h .nls nut from tin* highway at Milan's
I sunt-, also, tin- upper load from Luc.-ff
to Ration's Cross roads by llini-.r.

of work. There Is a road badly nee.lt(l

Mo- 11 on in ii i ? s i>n tour! ho.is.- and
! j*tii report that the court house is in
'fair condition, rxo pt the the toilets
joint heating plant need repairs We
(recommend that tile Janitor of the
j i uirr house be paid a lising salary, and
that he be required to keep the court
house throughout In a clean and sanitary
condition and his other duties
properly attended to The Jail Is as
Hell kept as Is possible, considering
its present situation. We are glad u>
understand that Kershaw county is
about to have a new Jail at last.
The financial affairs of the county
have been handled In a thoroughly
efficient manner. The books of the
county treasurer and other county offices
are well and neatly kept and are
in perfect order.
The Kershaw county prison camp
was found to be In good condition and
well knpt.
We append hereto report of Mrs.
Kathleen B. Watts, county superintendent
of educatioaiiSB(BFr,congratulate
her upon this fine shewing, and
we especially commend her because
of statements made to us by the auditor
at present auditing the books of
the different superintendents of education
he has audlfed this year, the
books of Kershaw county's superintendent
of education were better kept
i than any of the others
| We wish to recommend to the legislative
delegation that proper legislation
be enacted to provide for a magjistrates
office to be located at Liberty
Hill. The law provides for two
magistrates for Flat Rock Township,
but does not provide where their offices
shall be located The two gen
