debtedness Of the county to be ap-
Proximately $22, 900.
The grand jury were thanked by
Judge Haynesworth, OH behalf of
the public, for the able and efficient
manner in which they had con-
Quoted the duties of their office.
The presentment reads as follows:
PREsENTMENT OF GRAND JURY.
TO His Honor, H. J. Haynesworth,
Presiding Judge:
The grand jury respectfully pre-.
sent that they have acted upon all
bills handed to them by the solicitor
and have turned them into court.
1st. We find that leaks in roof
over jury room have not been re-
paired, as recommended in our pre-
sentiment at February term of court.
end. We are informed that a pub
lie road leading from Mrs. Sallie
Bobb's through d. NJ. Griffin and
]. NJ. Wicker's lands was granted,
and we recommend that the said
road be ordered opened, provided
all the land owners agree to give
the land free for bed Of road.
sd. The bad condition of the
road leading from Vaughanville to
Island Ford ferry over Saluda river
has been called to the attention Of
the grand jury through petition,
and we recommend that our super
visor have road put in good condi-
ton at once.
9TH. We requested the supervi-
sor to give a report showing the
total indebtedness of the county,
and we submit the following re-
port, which shows the total indebt-
edness to be approximately S22,-
900. 90. (See report which we
make part of Our presentment.)
5th. In checking up vouchers Of
county supervisor we find one item
Of 2,7oo.o 90 for sewerage, which
charge in our Judgment is excess
i've. We also find that no bids
were advertised for, and hence no
contract was let to the Newberry
Hardware Co. for this work, which
i'll our opinion is contrary to law.
One item Of the above bill was
$4,000 for incidentals. This was
not itemized, and hence we do not
understand.
9th. We regret that it becomes
Our duty to present County Super
visor Schumpert for conduct unbe
coming the Office he holds. We
learn that he has been frequently
under the influence of whiskey,
which necessarily incapacitates him
to properly discharge the duties of
his office. We are forced to this
duty OIL account OF the Importance

State Female Normal School.
Editor OF The Tlmes-Dispatch:

Editor OF The Tlmes-Dspatch:
Sir.-As president OF the Board OF Trus-
tees OF the State Female Normal School
at Ta.mville. thank you heartily for
your editorial OF the 18th Instant. The
trustees naturally take Erea interest In
tho school and are proud OF the fact that
1t has grow nand prospered under their
management and that 1t is now recog-
nized by all that the school is doing
a great work for the public school sys-
tenn of tn State.
The efficiency Of the public-school sys-
TEN OF the State requires that well-train-
ed teachers be employed and as the sala-
rles paid are necessarily small. we have
to look to the young women OF the State
to do the teaching i'll the public schools.
The school at Farmyille is the only school
provided by the Etate where they can get
this training and 1t seems to me that
this school should be properly equipped
and maintained. A small appropriation
was made by the State to establish this
school In the beginning. and the trustees
have done everything In their power. by
judicious use Of the money appropriated,
to increase the capacity OF the school.
But the condition OF things ut the school
now requires an Increased annual appro-
priation and an additional appropriation
for enlarging the buildings to accommo-
date the Increased number of students.
The fifteen thousand dollars annual APP
preparation enabled US to provide suf-
ticient number of teachers for two hun
dred students, but we now have four
hundred and ten students, not including
the children In the training school, and
It Is impossible for the present number
OF teachers to instruct 30 largo NUM-
Der as they should be. The present din
ing-room was Intended to accommodate
nd al " al
now have two hundred and twenty-five
crowded into It. There are four girls In
every sleeping-room In the buildings and
there are at least seventy-fve students
who had to get board with private fam
lilies In the town of Farmyille, and IT
Is submitted that the president OF the
school and those who have charge ut
the school cannot give proper super
vision to those students who board out
side OF the institution, The trustees have
only asked for sufficient sum to en-
able them to correct the evils named
and TO properly supply the school with
the teachers. The trustees have never
asked anything at the hands OF the Gem
eral Assembly. heretofore, that 1t He's not
granted, and we have stated the situation
that at present confronts us o the Finance
Committee and we hope the General AS

wards the education OF the young men OF
the State and only $1b,ovo towards tine
education of the young women and we
think with you that the necessity of,the
case requires that larger appropriation
be made to the school, We have not ask
ed a greater amount heretofore because
we did not need 1t, but we do need II now,
and we hope to get 1t. for We be1eve.the
welfare OF the school demands It.
Yours truly,
