To His Honor, Ernest Moore, Circuit Judge, presiding: The Grand Jury, for its final report, begs leave to say: 1. We have, by committee, examin ed all the county offices, poor house, chain gang, dispensary and Sinking Fund commission. The chaingang is in good condition, the convicts seem properly clothed and provided for, and seem to be doing good work. We recommend that a small tent be provided to be used in cases of con-1 tageous diseases, or, in other words, as a hospital tent. The poor house iin excellent shape, and we hereby commend the management on the good condition of affairs at this in| stitution. The crops are good, and the inmates all well clothed and properly cared for. We wish to caU pavI ticulftr attention to the way in which i our new and elegant court house is 1 being abused, by indiscriminate and | promiscuous spitting on the walls and ' floors, and we hereby recommend that, i especially during the sessions of .court, that two or more persons, not | to be known to the public, be appointed to look after this matter, and that any persons found spitting on the walls or floors, or in any way abusinr the building, be reported to the | proper official, and fined heavily enough to insure that the offense will I not be repeated. The dispensary we find to be well I and properly managed, so far as we 1 can see, and in this connection, we I wish to ask that the physicians of ! the county will co-ope rut'- with the j Grand Jury anu the management, so as to minimize the amount of whiskey sold on Sundays and legal holidays, as it has been reported to us that this has become' so common as to constitute a nuisance, and that the physicians only write prescriptions in cases of sickness that come within their own knowledge. We find the sinking fund in good shape, also, and especially request the. Union county delegation in the 'general assembly to immediately repeal the Act of 1914, No. 4<>0, entitled "An Act to retire certain bonds i issued by Union County in refunding the bond debt of in kid of the construction of the Spartanburg N: Asheville railroad, under an act to provide for refbnding the bonded indebtedness of Union County, approved the I 24th day of December, 1894, calling < ?

We do not think the time 1 justifies the preremptory calling rn, liquidating and paying off said bonds at the time mentioned in .-aid Act, when it is optional with the county to pay them off at said date, on allow them to continue, by the payment ol interest until 1921, and then redeenf ed. -*! The Master's office it well kept, a far as we can see, and his accounts i , good shape. The Superintendent o Education appears to be doing his fv duty, and his office seems in good condition. The Probate Judge's offic seems to be in good condition, also t and all funds in his hands, officially j properly and safely secured. The Clerk of Court has his office ii first* class condition, and all fund turned over to their proper source The same may be said of the Sheriff' office, and we find that officer discharging his duties carefully and co.v sistently. On examination of the Auditor's office, we find that there has been an increase in property valuation of three hundred thousand dol lars, approximately, and that, in eon i sequence, a reduction of one-fourth of j a mill will he made in the tax levy. The Treasurer has his office in ex- | cellent condition, his hooks accurately ! and neatly kept, and in such shape i that we had no trouble in checking up , his accounts. We have not had time to examine the hooks of the County Commissioners as thoroughly as we would like to. but we are informed that the members of the board have been hiring automobiles and conveyances to visit the chain gang and other public works, at the expense of the county, and we recommend that this practice be stopped, as these officers are paid a salary for attending to their duties. In regard to beneficiaries, we find enlisted old soldiers who are not elig- t iblo under the law, drawing pensions.' and some w^o informed our commit- j tee that they could not take the oath,! , and have not even applied for enroll-. ment. And, furthermore, we find some drawing pensions who do not even live in Union county. We find that the pauper fund is being grossly abused, and, if necessary, can give names and proof. In regard to the work of re-indexing the hooks of records in the Clerk'c office, we find that the sum of five hlinHrPfl iintl fiftv rlAllovg uro O . v..finally appropriated for this work, and that a great deal more than this sum has been paid out, and the work no where near completion. The jury would be glad to have the proper officers instructed to look into this matter, and ascertain what should he done in this regard. The County Rural Policemen are doing good work, and the fines collected through their activities are in excess of their salaries. We strongly recommend, however, that they spend much more of their time in the rural districts, as their presence has good effect. We have made such examination as we find practicable of our magistrates and find that they are doing their duty, and that they are, as far as we can see, accounting to the proper authorities for all fines collected by them. We recommend that they cooperate with the Sheriff and other officers of the law, in enforcing obedience to the laws regarding the Sabbath day observances, and generally ' enforcing the laws of the State.

We recommend that this he stopped. The Coroner's books are in good shape. We recommend that the County Commissioners take steps to carry out your Honor's suggestion, and install ceiling fans in the court room before the summer term of court, and that the same officers put the court house grounds in more acceptable condition, and that they put a stop to the practice of hitching horses arrt mules within the grounds.
