10 the Honorable G.. w. Gage, Judge
OF the 9th Judicial circuit.

nnal presentment beg leave to report:
l.. We have passed upon all tho bills
handed us by the Solicitor.
O. We have not a,:this term of court
examined the books of our county Off
GERS, but have appointed committee of
our body to examine tho samo an | re-
port ut tho next term of court.
8. A committee from our body havo
visited the poor firm and find tho pau.
pors we'll cared for, and being humnnely
treated. But we fiud that ono Of tho in
mates to be such q condition mentally,
that we consider him n fit subject for tho
asylum and recommend that he be sent
there, We also find that parties who join
lands with tho furm, nave turned the
water that properly belongs to their
farms into the poor farm, and wo rec
ommend that our County Commission
ers take steps Immediately TO have those
parties take care of their own water.
4. We have also visited the jail and
find the prisoners properly cared for,
but find that the Jail is in dolapidated
condition and recommend that the Coun,
ty Commissioners build good and sub
stantial Jail.
8. We find tho roads in wrotchcd
condition owing to tho unprecedented
heavy rains and scarcity of funds, and
recommend that the Commissioners as
soon as possible put them in rs good

bGnds.
6. We find that the Government dis
tileries i'll the county are Il public nui-
sanco and menace to the public peace,
and demomlizing to the community in
which they ara located, and are largely
responsible for the large criminal dock
cts which our court has been burdrned
with. Our citizens arc bcing arrested
and punished for buying the same, while
the mon who make and sell it arc not
molested. And We would earnestly roe.
Ommend that our state and county Off

of.these, and right here let us reason
together. You say that you really wish
to see this section engage in diversified
industries, as the all cotton plan is fast
becoming unmanagenbe? Good. Then
here, you can easily sec, is an opportu-
nifty to help start n new order of affairs
for oil through this Piedmont belt the
rapid increase in population will, for
years to come, guarantee a good market
for all food products of The dairy. If
you have observed the drift of things
you have seen, also, that dairy f1lming
on small scale can and does pay good
profits. How mach greater then is the
chance for safe and ever increasing
profit, when large number of farmers
form joint stock company, and cngagc
in the businers on Il large scale; using
the latest md best machinery and en-.
ploying only skilled labor such COM
pany not only will be good for all
amounts OF money invested but will pay
a handsome profit as well. Mister, right
now is when you should take few
shares Of stock in the lEaslcY Creamery.
