Townsend, Judge Presiding at the June term of court for Union county, 1003: 1. We, the (irand Jurors of Union county beg to submit our report. Wo have carefully examined all indictments handed us by the Solicitor, and have passed upon them as ( in our judgment the evidence warranted. We have by committee visited the county parish, chaingang and jail. We found at the county parish twenty-one inmates. They all seemed contented and had no complaints to report as to their treatment; in fact, each and every one evpressed themselves in the highest terms of our Supt. Mr. J. F. Heine, saying that he was kind and attentive to them. 'J. We found the chaingang well provided for. The prisoners made no complaint. Their quarters were in tine condition. Mr. H. H. Kob inson, the overseer, seems to have the management well in hand. ft. The jail was in good condi-! tion as it is possihls to keep it in! its congested condition. We find1 that at times the jail is so crowded that it is impossible to provide bathe prisoners, such as is desirable on the part of our sheriff. We would recommend as a relief to the j situation that steel cells be nrovid e<l. Those cells are portable so J that they can he placed anywhere in the building and can he moved j as necessity requires. They are absolutely safe and strong. I. There is no provision for the M prisoners to sleep except on the floor, there Icing only three or four ^ broken and dilapidated cots. We insist on there being sonic substantial iron cots provided for that purpose. We note that the. improve" ment recommended in the clerk's oflice has not been done in accord- 8 ance with the recommendation of I1 the Grand Jury in a former report. a However, some work has been done a which tends to relieve the situation ' for present needs. We recommend s< that the work be done as soon m ? possible in accordance with former recommendations. r( We did not examine Hie l>ooks }l; of the different county officers this ,s time owing to the fact that it is very near the end of the fiscal year ll' after that time we will examine the al books, bonds, etc. We extend to rsi His Honor, also to the Solicitor and other officers of the court, our|ai N AUGHTER Shoes, in calf and vici, buttor $5.00 Shoes for J I?aU ..11 i> aiiu itauicis, win uc suiu iui k Shoe going for? loes, price $1.50, being sold fo Ladies' Slippers, all sizes, for.. t Shoes, price $4.00, selling at. th $1.25 to $1.50, selling for .. at once!

Respectfully submitted, A. P. H. Walker, ^ Foreman. Too Much Politics in the Cotton Growers Association. Senator B. It. Tillman in his letter to President Tindal of the flreenvillej county cotton growers association accepting the invitation to deliver an address before the association in that city on 4th of July, says: "I have watched with some amusement and interest the antics of certain political aspirants and have thought that I detected the ass's cars of office seekers protruding through the thin disguise furnished hy the movement to or- j iranizc the cotton rrn\woi-u fov c?.1f I protection. Of course there are[ many earnest, honest men engaged in the work, and the efforts of these are appreciated hy all right thinking people." Of course Hon. B. R. Tillman ought to he able to detect political motives, as it takes a rogue to catch a rogue, he having organized the w >< 1 1 a1 one gallus farmer into a strong reform movement hy arous- ; ing their prejudices against the old ioealled ring, saying while thus en- [ jaged that he wanted no office but vas simply trying to enlighten the ^ people by the inauguration of a ampaign for education. Yet he \ vent into the gubernatorial chair >y this movement. Therefore he * s able to see what is in the cotton N jrowcrs association for those who spire as he did. Jiildrens Day at Bogansville Church. ( As usual the Bogansvillle chil* J' ren's day exercises were a great i access. Rev. 1>. K. Camak the o astor opened the exercises with an * ppropriate prayer, and made a fine t d<lress suitable to the occasion, t 'ho responsive readings were well a leeted, and a most interesting ature of the day's pleasure. And " ie recitations were all admirably ndercd showing a deep and spirit- a ill incentive. The singing was, as * always the case with these peole a characteristic. charm, for they ij ways sing well and sing the most B >propriato selections for every ocision they purpose to celebrate, rid the dinner served was good M id bountiful as usual. n?

Tuesday, Dam No. 10, Indc- | pendent Order of Beavers had a very j pleasant outing. An elegant picnic dinner was laid in the grove on the hill near Peake's mineral spring. Early in the morning the mcmIjers of the Dam in regulation dress - marched to the gvounds with banners afloat, to the inspiriting strains of Baldwin's military band. A large crowd gathered on the grounds children l>oing largely in the majority, who engaged in many juve nile sports under the cool shade of the oaks, while the band played lovely airs, adding greatly to the enjoyment of the nsscmby. We have heard of haple83 happenings, luckless inopportune incidents, hut never before has a much needed and most delightful shower of rain come at such an inopportune moment as it did on Tuesday at 12 o'clock m. The Beavers, their wives, their children and invited guests had just gathered round the long tables tilled with the most delicious of every thing to eat; down came the rain with a stiff wind blowing, by which a most suniptu" ous picnic dinner was spoiled, ardor of participants cooled, /enthusiastic spirits subdued, men and boys wore a grimace, looked ugly and sour, the sweet girls looked demure and the ladies discommoded, discouraged and disappointed. The pretty j hats and gowns and dainty white j shoes and slippers presented a limp | and liquid appearance. But not" j withstanding all this it was a day of ereat nleasure. although we seek i pleasure under difficulties we get it all the same. We are truly sorry that the joys of this day came so suddenly to an end. The Beavers have a very substantial and growing order, and the dam grows steadily broader and longer, and will continue to widen while such representative workers arc engaged in Its TrtTflding. Water | is the natural element of the beaver j but surface water that of Tuesday | was in the nature of a shower bath that even tire veteran beaver was I made to seek shelter. The spirit t and disposition of the beaver tc j overcome obstacles, and keep workIing, and by this persistency accomplish desired results.
