Report Of Territorial Grand Jury, "a ia.
-dlc:al District-Sept. Term, 1870.
We, the Grand Jury, empannellcd at the
September Term Of the District Court of
of the Second judicial District Court, TO
enquire of offences committed within the
County of Deer Lodge and Territory of
Montana, herewith respectfully report:
That having disposed of all the business,
and cases brought before US, and having
discharged our duties as Grand Jurors for
the County of Deer Lodge, 80 far as We
know, respectfully submit:
That, during our Session, We have visi-
ted the Jail and examined the premises,
which we find in good sanitary condition,
with the exception of the sink inside the
Jail. We find this very offensive to the
smell, but do not consider it any fault of
the persons in charge of the prisoners, as it
cannot be obviated without some additional
expenditure In the way of ventilation and
drainage, which We would recommend.
We would also submit, that complaint
has been made to Us with regard to the OBJ
struction OF the streets and alleys in the
town of Deer Lodge, and VIC would recon.
mend that buildings standing upon the
public alleys of said town should be re.
moved, and such other Instructions as in
terfere with their public use.
Complaint is further made, that nui.
sancc exists upon the alley running North
and South, being the first alley West from
Main street. and North from Third street,
produced by being inhabited and denscly
crowded with China women Of " i'll rcpute. "
It is charged that the neighborhood is dis.
turbed (many times during tho entire night
by the great noise. rowdyism, and firing Of
pistols, going on in said alley, one of our
Jarymdh tes tifying that pistol ball COM
ing therefrom, which was fired as night,
passed through the rcof Of his house into
his bed. OFT: -r#& ..~..' 8.. Y
Complaint il also made of the reckless
and incorrect manner in which some of the
tax payers Of this County make their re.
turns to the Assessor, gross violations, of
which We would recommend future Grand
Jurys to take cognizance.
All Of which Is most respectfully sub
mitted.. ..5 %. ..a'5r
