We find that on Feb. 10, 1901. after
this Investigation was begun the said
j. J. Gilmor paid to the county treas
urer the sum Of S53. 60 to cover these
amounts. While we have not been
permitted for lack of time To make n
full Investigation OF all tho Irregular
tiles in this Office we are convinced
that he has been guilty OF the grossest
Irregularities and we would suggest
that complete investigation OF his
books and accCrnts should be had
and that he should be presented for
misrepresentation of the funds so col
leoted by him. Regarding the arrest
Of the negro Will Hull, which we
were directed ny the court to investi-
gate, we find thata warrant wns issued
by Magistrate Gilmer for the arrest
Of this negro upon an affidavit OF A.
L: Newell charging him with violation
OF labor contract and that w. s.
Newell, brother of the. prosecutor,
was deputized by the magistrate to
serve said warrant. that the constable

with him and assist in making said
arrest and representing that said Hull
would probably create trouble when
arrested and that the assistance OF the
deputy sheriff would be needed. The
arrest was made on Friday night and
the negro was brought to Anderson ON
the same night. The deputy sheriff
snggested that the prisoner be taken
to Jail, but the negro said that he
would prefer to go on with ". 8.

the deputy that the magistrate had in

quently the magistrate was informed

had agreed TO stay with him and work
out hia cnntraccss. &c. Tho Teat Of the facts

eXonerate the deputy sheriff from all

Owing to the widespread influence
and effect that follows anv public dis
cussion Of tho question of farm labor
in this State, and the results that
may follow n presentment rs we pro-
pose, it is proper that we should in
closing this report enter into brief
uiGcusslon OF the influences that have
brought about the evils reported and
make suggestions as to the remedies
therefor. We have heard rumors that
this invt tstigatiOn has already created
widespread interest and that tho
conditions have been discussed with
some feeling, but wc have as far as
possible avoided reading anything
published or said III this respect in
order that we might pursue our in
vestign tions without any influence or
bias from any quarter. The question
Of farm labor in this State is q very
difficult one and the present laws regu
lating same are insufficient. The ne
grOes whom we found confined i'm the
stockades were composed largely of a
class of shiftless debtors who are sub
jcct to Indictment for petty offense
worked under ordinary contracts.
They are men who have no property
and men who cvade their debts unless
compelled to pay them Against then,
the process of the civil courts is worth
less, that of tho criminal court under
existing laws is inadequate. Some
thing should pc done by the legislature
to grade the punishment of this class
according to the offense. But the
worst trouble has not been i'm the
defect Of the provision of tho law so
much rs in its enforcement. 1t has
come to be a settled policy in this
county that indictments for violation
OF contracts aud for disp0sing of prom
erty under lien, should be cnmDrom,s
ell and not tried. We are convinced
that this is wrong in principle AMI
dangerous in practice. Whatever in
justice. may be done an individual by
dispOsinE OF property on which no has
a lien, or by the violation of II cOntrnct
by ono of his employees, and whatever
force. might be given to tho effect of
penal statutes to induce payment of
debts OF fuliillment of contracts. that
never has been tho true intent ana
purpose OF penal statutes. They are
enacted to prevent public wrongs, and
when n prosecution has once been in.
stitutea and the power Of the criminal
court invoked the question of private
recUmpense should disappear and the
public interest a,Ono should be CON
sidered; While this may result in oc.
casiOnal hardships, it is the only safe
policy. Abuses will otherwise gov nm
until the criminal courts are degraded
into machines for priv ate gain and
often far .:S';;Tt;'in 5sbti oppression. In
our Judgment it would DO II crime to
compromise any case after Indictment
found with view of private gain.
Nor can we condemn too severely
that other fruitful source, in fact the
origin at the abuses herein reported,
the leasing out of convicts To work ON
private farms. Evils airpndy detailed
are t n eloquent to ntcrssitute Il dis.
cnssi I'll to prove this. Such a system
should not b. tolerated after it's results
n .ve heen exposed as in :his county.

THB LABOR CONTRACTS.
The Report OF the Grand Jury's luyestiga'
tlon and Judge Benet's Remarks.

Last Thursday the Court of General
Sessions was convened for short
while to hear the report of tho Grand
Jury in reference to the illegal labor
contracts which it had been investiga-
ting M:c!:: interest was manifested In
the matter, and when the Grand Jury
filed into the Court room ut 1890 o'clock
there was scarcely standing room on
the floor, and the gallery was packed
with negroes. The nresentment Is ss
follows.

NEW POSTAL RULES.

The new postal rule promulgated by
the postmaster general is now in force,
having gone into effect Oct. l. The rules
which are now in force group themselves
under three heads-first, a prohibition
upon the return of unsold copies of peri
odicals at pound rates, either by news
agents to publishers or by one news
agent to another; second, the exclusion
OF anything which is really book from
the privileges extended to periodicals.,
no matter whether the book appears
under the guise of a serial publication
or not; and third. the exclusion of peri
odicals which depend for their subscrip
ton list, not upon their merits as pur-
veyors of news and literature, but upon
the offer of premiums. The privilege of
news agents to send unsold copies to
publishers and other news agents at
pound rates expired absolutely on the
first of the month. In the case OF the
books and of the premium publications,
the process Of exclusion will be rather
more complex. For some months post
masters all over the country, under in
structions from the department, have
been sending in copies of publications
which in their opinion violated the new
rules; and as fast as the letters could
be written the publisher in each case
has received from the department an
order to show cause why his print should
not be charged the regular rates paid
by the publisher. In cases where rea-
sonable doubt exists as to the applica-
ton Of the new rule, the postmaster will
be instructed by the department to APP
ply to the publisher for permission for
himself or one of the inspectors to ex-
anime the accounts of the concern. If
this examination proves that there is no
ground for exclusion, the publication will
be admitted to the mails under the same
terms as usual, but if not, the privilege
will be cut off. And if the publisher
refuses to open his accounts to inspec-
ton, his publication viii be excluded
and the full burden thrown upon him
OF proving affirmatively that he had a
right to the pound rate. The orders to
show cause have fixed Oct 10, 10 and 20
ms the date thus far; date viii be fixed
in each instance, and the publisher who
ignores the order will be assumed to
have confessed that he is not entitled to
the pound rate privilege.

MEDAL FOR ROOSEVELT.
Army Brevet Board May Take
Up the Matter.

Washington, Oct s.-The work Of the
army brevet board, headed by General
Macarthur, which was begun today, is
to be comprehensive. It's scope has been
enlarged greatly. While it was intended
originally that only brevets earned in
the Chinese and Philippine campaigns
should be considered the board has been
charged to include the Spanish-Arneri-
can war operations. All of the nominal
tons sent to the senate last session,
recommending brevets for the Spanish
war service have been withdrawn and
the present board consequently Will
have clean field. There are more than
1000 of these nominations, the result or
the work of the Schwan board, which
dealt with Cuban brevets and OF a board
headed by General Chaffee at Manila,
which made recommendations Tor
brevets, based upon service in the earlier
stages of the Philippine campaign. It is
deemed well to recOmnit all these NOM
nations to the present board, which
having in hand the whole subject, can
arrange a more uniform and equitable
system of awards, than would be posi-
BILE for a board dealing with only one
phase of the campaign. This board may
recommend also the award of medals Of
honor. 1t is likely that medal may be
recommended for bestowal upon Col
Theodore Roosevelt now president or
the United States for distinguished gal
lantry in the Santiago campaign 1t is
expected the senate will act upon the
brevet nominations at the approaching
session. No action on the part of con-
gress is required In the case of medals
of honor, the president being the final
authority.
