this Court has to order thesTrial Justice
70 issue a warrant any more than it has
to order a private citizen or a Justice Of
the Supreme Court to do so. Indeed not
so much, because there is no express in
hibition in the law against the issuance
by the two latter. It is correctly con-
ceded by defendants that the presentment
of agrand jury is sufficient authority for
the issuance of a warrant of arrest, but
it must be issued by the Court to which
the presentment is made, full provision
for which is made in Section 742 Of the
General Statutes.
"This judgment IS not meant to end
the prosecutions against defendants, but
only to direct it through the proper chan
nels. There is a class of criminal Of
lenses, the prosecution of which falls
with special force on the grand jury, for
the reason that no special injury is done
to individuals and prosecutors are apt to
fall under the ban of a disordered public
opinion, and the Court thinks these cases
belong to that class, and the grand jury
should be encouraged to make such pre-
sentiment by vigorous prosecution of the
cases. But this consideration cannot
make legal a proceeding void in itself.
cit is therefore held that the warrants
Of arrest, issued by E. L. Herndon, Trial
Justice, are illegal and void; and it is
ordered that the defendants be dis
charged from custody"

Court Proceedings.

The Court of General Sessions for
oconee county convened in Walhalla
Court House on Tuesday. July 9Th, 1892.
at 10 A. NJ, Judge T. 3. Fraser presid-
ing. Solicitor NJ. F. Ansel was in his
seat with a batch of indictments spread
before him to be acted on by the grand
jury. Stenographer Wyatt Aiken, not
withstanding his having become a Bene-
dict since last term, is none the less
efficient in making a faithful record OF
the proceedings.
Judge Fraser briefly instructed the
grand jury on the proper manner of in
vestigating the ~county's official matters,
and then charged on the bills of indict-
ment handed out by the Solicitor.
No cases were tried by the petit jury
except where the defendants were in
jail. all cases let to bal going over to fall
term. This was done in order to give
the farmers an opportunity of returning
10 their fields, which are badly in need of
attention on account of the continuous
rains.
The following cases were disposed of:
The State VS.. James Anderson-resist-
ing az officer. True bill. Guilty. Sen
fenced to imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary at hard labor for two years.
The State VS.. Moses Bigby-assanlt of
Highland aggravated nature. True bill.
Guilty. Sentenced to imprisonment IN
the p%enitentiary at hard labor for one
year.
The State VS., Eph Hunter-removing
railroad signal flag. True bill. Guilty.
Sentenced to Imprisonment in the peni-
Tertiary at hard labor for six months.
The State VS.. Taylor Boggs-assault.
Appeal from Trial Justice Court. Ap-
peal sustained, Judgment reversed and
sentence set aside.
All other criminal cases were continued,
and Petit jurors were discharged Tues
day afternoon.
The grand jury made their p%resentment
Wednesday morninga and were discharged,
after which the Court of Sessions was
adjourned sine die, and the Common
Pleas opened.
Judge Fraser will remain until Friday
to hear civil matters for trial without a
jury.

the regiment to the colors.n He thought
protection under the Mckinley bill was
the stupendous swindle OF the age; it
was legalized grand larceny. He showed
how The Southern farmers would save
abort Y5,oOO,OOO this year on the single
item of cotton ties by the reduction OF
the tariff duties on them, accomplished
by the legislation of the present Demo
cratic Congress. Cleveland was the expo
nent of tariff reform.
J. W. Shelor, Esq, being called upon,
said he had at u time doubted the
availability of Grover Cleveland as the
nominee of the party, butsince he received
the nomination at Chicago en- the first
ballot, over all combined opposition, and
tie further fact that. the three great
dailies of New York city were for him,
the speaker now believed Cleveland to be
the man of all others to put in the lead
and the easiest to be elected. He, too,
touched upon the inequality and Unjust
ice of protection, and how heavily the
burdens weighed upon the South. He
advised unity and harmony, and urged
united work by all classes for the cleo
ton of Cleveland and Stevenson, which
would, in his opinion, insure better times.
The resolutions were then unanimously
adopted by a rising vote. After the adop-
ton of the resolutions, however, the
crowd seemed hungry for more speech
making, and frequent calls were made
for other speakers.
D. A. Smith responded to calls by say
ing that the South paid annually s75,0W,-
900 for pensions and got back almost
nothing.
W. W. Moss, sheriff, responded by say
ing that Cleveland had been his choice
from the first, and he was proud to haye
him in the lead.
James Seaborn, Esq, responded to fire.
quent calls and made the humorous
speech of the evening. He said that the
other speakers were not much on making
political speeches, and he was glad to be
called on, for that vas just in his line,
and he could make a splendid speech if
he only had the time. They had made a
mistake in not calling for him sooner, as
he would then have made a speech right.
But it was now growingla late and he would
simply move the adoption of the resolu-
tons, then adjourn and go home. Car
ried with laughter and applause.
Taken all in all it was a splendid meet
ing, and being run in a free and easy
style, became a regular Democratic love
feast. All the speakers were soundly
chcered and much enthusiasm was
aroused. The meeting adjourned at half
past ten o'clock.

To tie Grand JuryG Oconee County, South
Carolina, July Term Of Court, 1892:
The undersigned, under special com
mittee appointed to examine the county
offices, beg leave to report: We have
made a careful examination in person OF
all the county offices, the in
which they are kept and the solvency OF
the bonds of all the various officers. and
find everything in good order. the books
in nice shape and the bonds all sufici-
emily secured.
AS to the numerous reports that have
come to our ears of irregularities il the
Auditors office, we beg leave 20 report
specially that we have carefully exam.
ined this office and find that the names
of many poll tax payers are on the books
more than once, and that this has resulted
IN the issuing of executions by the Trea-
surer against many persons who hold
receipts for their taxes; but we find that
neither the Auditor nor the Treasurer is
altogether to blame for this.
The school district lines, as recently
established, have never been surveyed
and accurately located, the board OF
examiners not having any money at their
control for the purpose. AS a conse-
cuence we find that the various school
trustees in reporting to the Auditor the
polls in their district have in some cases
reported the same person in more than
one district. In this way the man is
taxed twice or oftener-sometimes under
exactly the same name and sometimes
under different Christian names ss their
different n".ghbors remember them. For
this reason. We think, many Of the mis-
takes have 5een unavoidable, and for
which no one is TO blame. We recon-
mend that the grand jury call the atten-
ton of the members of the Legislature
from this county to this uncertainty in
the school district lines and ask that sui
fcient money be appropriated to pay the
expense of a survey and definite location
of such of these lines as do not follow
some natural, well defined landmark, as
a stream or public road.
In looking through the office of the
Clerk of the Court we find that certain
charters have been issued by the Clerk
to Clubs in Walhalla, whose %ostensible
purpose is social, but whose real purpose,
we are Informed, is the illicit sale OF
intoxicating liquors. We recommend
that the grand jury inquire further into
this matter with a view of presenting the
persons to the court if they are violating
the law, and of presenting the matter to
the Legislature if, as we are informed is
claimed by them, they are justified IN
this dispensing of intoxicants under a
recent decision of our Supreme Court.
Respectfully submitted.
