Report Of Grand Jury.

To the Hon. the District Court, Third Judi
cidI District l. r.:
We, the Grand Jury, respectfully submit
as follows:
We have been compelled TO dismiss a num-
Der of grave charges for want Of evidence,
We believe this results to great extent from
the failure Of committing magistrates TO
comply with Section 100 of the Criminal
Practice Act which is in these words:
"sEc. 1876. On holding the defendant To
answer the magistrate shall take from each
OF the material witnesses examined before
him on the part Of the people, written re-
cognizance to the effect that he will appear
and testify at the Court to which the depo
sitions and statements are to be sent, or that
he will forfeit the sum Of five hundred
dollarsn
We find that in no one OF a large number
OF cases which were brought before us for
examination, all charging otfenses not less
than felonies, has this section of the law
been complied with.
We would therefore respectfully recon-
mend that the magistrates OF the county
hereafter adopt such means as the law pro-
yides to enforce the attendance at the sue
ceeding term Of the District Court Of all ma
teriaI witnesses on part Of the people exam
ined before them on criminal examination,
| in all cases where the party accused is com
mitted OF held TO bail for trial.
We have examined the Jail and Court
! House We find the jail clean and in good
order, but not well ventilated, and We would
recommend that it be whltewashed The
court house is in passablc condition.
Our examination Of the books and accounts
of the several county officers was necessarily
/ Ia IN an
| further than that they appeared to be kept
neatly and in good condition. There having
been a change in the officers Of the county
since the sitting of the last Grand Jury, we
would respectfully recommend to the con
sideration of the County Commissioners the
prOprlety of appointing committee OF IN
yesiigatIOn al least upon the accounts up TO
the instalment of the present incumDents.
The county Indebtedness, according to the
/ Treasurer's last report, exclusive OF interest,
is fifty two thousand one hundred and eighty
six dollars and twelve cents; the cash on
hand twenty seven hundred and fifty-five
dollars and sixty-nine cents. Through the
energy and efficiency Of our Assessor in the
discharge of his duties, the receipts Of the
Treasurer were unusually large the last
month, and with continued energy on the
mart Of the collectors and economy in the adj
ministration Of county affairs, the indebted
ness will be materially reduced during the
present fiscal year
We would recommend 10 the Hon. Boart
of County Commissioners close examina
ton into the legality of all bills and accounts
against the county, incurred by unnecessarily
protracted criminal examinations.
The Grand Jury desire to tender their sin
cere thanks 10 the District Attorney for thu
attentive and efficient manner in which M
has assisted them in their labors.

The recollections of Pioneer OF Califor-

valuable as history of the early settlement
of the coast that is not preserved in any
other form, and we regret that our space
forbids their republication in the WAVE. The
chapter contained in the Sentinel OF the 18th
inst. is unusually interesting as detailing the
scenes that occurred from 1916 to lsas, IN
GLIDING the bear flag revolution, Col Ere

stead, etc These "reminiscences cover a
