MI, Foreman and members Of the
Grand Jury: Herewith we submit to
you that portion ofthe work given to
us to report n.
LOTTERIES y CIGARETTES.
Lpon investigation we find that the
law regarding the suppression of
lotteries, sale OF cigarettes, etc, has
not been enforced any more rigidly
THAI at the time Of the report Of the
last Grand Jury.
HOTELS AND BOARDING HOUSES.
We find that the officers have ell
forced the law in this respect, as
numerous private boarding houses
have been compelled to pay and are
10Y paying licenses.
N~UISANCES.
We find hat the officer whose duty
it is to keep the streets clean, the
sewers in repair and look after the
| general cleanliness of Il streets and
sidewalks has been very prompt in
making repair, and removing OBJ
struCtiOnS from the sidewalks. Cleau-
ing streets and cess pools aui doing
all in his power to fulfill the duties of
that position,
We did not think it necessary to go
into the examination of books and f.
n~ances, as the Committee on County
Affairs is making a very thorough
report on same.
