We fear that we will never have good roads under our present system of road working, but until we can get a better at system we shall have to do the best w~ can, No doubt with proper effort all bround with the present system we could have better roads. ye Trhere are also other suggestions made '5-i the presentment well worthy of con. sideration. is, ~. .Ulgh Compliment to a Newberr'y Lady e.w Some time since.

Those vho claim to be )osted astc the Cahin<-t poliical situation. predict that the following named persons will be invited by President Cleveland to a seat in his Cabinet Secretary of State-T. F.

Mr. G-trland seems to have bit ittle opposition for Atty-Gen!. Other names have been discused but these are.the most p:oniiiient. The In dependents, it is said, are not ask ing a Cxbinetposition..of-"the new administra tion. -They prefer to ocupy a neutral position, in o'rder to retain their ide:i tity as dist:nctly an Independent organ ization, believing that they-can in this way be of ~greater bent-fit to the people and exert a g. eater influence for the cause of reform. President Cleveland has thus far displayed considerable skill in harmonizing the different factionu- of his p:rty,'and it is to be hoped that the personal interviews which he has been having with the Represrtntatives of the States will give him a correct idea of their condition and the administration most needed to build up, solidify and develop the uiaterial and industial in tere.t of the' countrv.

Pre iig Jadge: The grand jury at the close of theib duty for the present terit of court, would-respecifully repoFt' iat tGc; have'arefull considered'all iatter: given them in hand b3 ..he Solicitor. We have, in the further prosecution of our duty, examiaed the Conrt house and find' it in a'fair condition, and the offices in the Courthouse all are in good order and weif kept. , 'committee has been appointed o nake a m.re . thordugh and complete examination of the books and"offices of all County Officers, and to repo'rt at the next term of this edurt. iThe jail we'do not: regard as beit}g in 'a god -snd proper.condition ; sev: eral of the' cells need to be over hagl ed so as'to in'ke tliem more safe. We would recommend that some platz alduld be adopted by whiich t e 'btnilding 'cduldde IiEated aindmade rhore co:iortebl'e. Tiis should be done by a furnace and fluess as to keep thefire opt;ot:reaiof- the'pr . ondgs.

"We can say, nothing very favorable of tho -.pubT lic.roade.. They are in some 'sections in poor condition. It seems to be the pride :and aim of many overseers of roads' to do as little wotk ow tie roads as possible. We find great 'cosi plaint of a want of-tools to'work the roads with We wuuld call the atten tion of the County Commissioners to this complaint. The bridges are in good order as far as'is knowi to the jury. We would call. attention. to the condition of the bridge . aeross the deep railroad cut on .Boundary street in the city of Newberry is biought to our notice by the Mayor and Council of the,city. The. bridge is in danger ous conditiou. -The .attention .of.tlre officers of the road havq. been fre quently 'cslled to the .ondition of this bridge by- the Major, but as yet n,atteitWon has been pado 4these. rpfesentati~oas. It is the duty of the Columbia and Greenville Railroad company to keep this bridge in ~good and proper repair. The bridge is too narrow. It should be the width 'f ,he said. .street, We" recommend that the County .Comnissioners or proper 'autlorities be required to take immediate action in this matter andi press -it through at once and -see that said..Company -comply with its obli gations in this. mnatter. The . Clerk of the Court calls our attention to some books in his office which ari in need of repairs, 'We recomnen'd that the. Clerk have such books properly rebound and:that tii' County Commissioners* pay for Sthe same out 'of~ the pr-ojper Counnty - A committee-of our--namber- have keeper appears'''to' --'nnd'istarid 'his 'duty. -while the :nmates 'lool- 'clea'n; and as well' cared .for as the circum: stances a'nd their sitnation and cony dition will.allow. The Cou2nty Comn. .missioners are having some additional rocsns erected, which seem very innch needed.;. One .of the other buildings is greatly in need of repairs. The committee think 'that all the bgild ings should 'be' - whitewashed and thoroughly renovated. They aleo think( that.a neat and -'commodious house should be erected near by for the use of the keeper and family, and that all the. buildiggssliold. be enelosed by. a .neat. and- substantial~ fence. And they..furth'er recommend that the Poor House farms be.rented ear lier than usual, say by the..first of S<-ptemiber. This would allow,. the renter time to sow such'grain as might be. desired, ..t aame to the 'knowledge-of the ju,ry that,.the business in sofne of the offices of the County officers, for sev eral termis back, remain yet in an uin, settled dondition~ We' advise- that the Solicitor or proper o$cer investi gate this matter.an take-sach action as may be reouired~by lSw,' to secure a prompt and early sett-,zment of all unsettled business i any Qnd all the county offces We fear, from . observation,' that there is too, great .a tendency to en courage small and frivolous liti. gation in the county. This ab sorbs the means and . time of a class who- are ill able to spare theji money or time. .Whie the constani call for men to leave their business ~to sit 'on juries, without pay, is be .comiing 'a bothersoinie tax upon. omI Ipeople. 'They are regaired, we think to.make too great sacrliee under' th4 'form and. pretext of law. -- We thinir the vagrant laws should be moie atringently enforced in thi dotnty.. an.d .especially-in the city a - ewrberry; ;and .recoimaend 'tha th.ese inatters ber.efered to th~ Mayor of the 'city,' oi'some other 'of fleer may be required to- see to thi 1proper etiforcement of these laws IWe think if these laws were propelj enforced in the county it would ten< to materially lessen crime in th< county. - J.. .,tAn'rN, -Foreman.': - B.
