Grand Jury Report.
GRAND JURY ROOM,

Judicial District, Territory of Arr
 zona
 Honorable Sir Your Grand Jury have the honor very respectfully to lay before your honor, the following report of their proceedings for the November term, 1889, of your court. The grand jury, consisting of fif- teen members, were organized by the appointing of s. R. DeLong as fore man on December 26, 1SS9
 The grand jury in sitting found two indictments for murder and attempt to commit murder, and nineteen for lesser offenses.
 Your grand jury report upon the following county matters, commenc ing with the Board of Supervisors:
 The books of the office are found to be in excellent order, and with the ad- ditional cash book kept in the office there is perfect check upon the County Treasurer's office, and there can be no default in the County Treas urer's office, or error in his accounts that would not be brought to light at the end of each month, or at most each quarter when the supervisors | count the money on hand in the treasurer's office
 The grand jury find that for 2 time and until recently the Judge of this judicial district has been receiving from the Board of Supervisors of this county $I25 every three months, or $500 per year
 It is the opinion of this grand jury, that this money was paid over to said judge without warrant Of law, there fore illegally and this grand jury rec ommend Chat proceedings be insti- tuted to recover this money so paid out.
 This grand jury find in the matter of county roads that there have been expended in the several road districts of the county in the year 1859, $I0jl. 55 over and above the amount raised in said districts for road pur- poses.
 The grand jury would recommend
  that amounts expended for repairs of roads should be confined to the amount of money raised i'll each dis trict for road purposes.
 The grand jury find in the matter Of
 DISTRICT COURT CLERK upon investigation, that his fees for l the year 1889, not including present | term of court, amounted to $2.868.4O; | and the supervisors of Cochise county 1 have been paying said clerk in addi- ton thereto $75 per month or $900 | per annum; making in all, as there are some other fees not included, about | $4 900 per annum as the emoluments of that office during the year past.
 The grand jury consider that the Board of Supervisors are not author ized to pay the district court clerk $75 per month or any other sum as the amounts he receives from fees and extra work in office constitute an ample salary.
 COUNTY TREASURER.
 The Treasurer's office and books your grand jury find to be in excellent order. There was found on hand in actual money the sum of $97 ,S32.13 which with the amount received and i paid out since January lst, agreed with the count of county supervisors on December 31. 1889.
 sHERIFF's OFFICE.
 The grand jury found the Sheria 5 office in good order and condition and | the books neatly and succinctIy kept. |
 COUNTY JAIL. The county jail was found clean and | neat, the prisoners well and reasona- bly, fed. II appears to the grand jury l that the night guard at the jail is paid | more than necessary for the work done viz, $4 per day. As labor now is it seems to us to be easy to get good | men to do the same labor for $3 per day. The same will apply to the day guard of said jail. In regard to the
