Protest Aaainst Attorney.

We also protest against the acts of an attorney of Birmingham, who, it is re- ported, has been filing several suits in Birmingham courts for parties residing within this Jurisdiction without any authority from the parties for whom he filed the suits. And it has been brought to our attention that there are other at torneys who are guilty of grossly im- proper and unlawful conduct in their manner of doing business some of it almost, if not going to the extent of criminality. And we recommend that the attorneys of this county take steps to shut off such improper conduct of some of the attorneys.

VIGOROUS KICKS

Bessemer December 4.-(Specal) )-Thc grand jury of the Bessemer city court ad- journed this morning after submitting its report to Judge B. c. Jones.

 The report follows:
 We have docketed 1S6 cases, including six continued by the last grand jury examined 237 witnesses. issued sos sub poenas, continued 16 cases, dismissed and found no indictments in 90 cases and as a result of our investigations have reported 80 true bills, the most of which we are proud to say are for misdemeanors.

Roads In Bad Condition.

We find that the county road running from Bessemer to Helena is in bad condition, caused principally by it's being too narrow in many places, and we rec ommend its being widened where neces- sary, as is also the Herd Shoals road in precinct 4 The condition of these roads can also be attributed to the want of proper care in working and grading. We also recommend that steps be taken by the proper county officers to have these roads put in good condition. The road laws of the county are defective and should be amended by legislation.
 We, as grand jurors and citizens, pro- test against the uncomfortable and in- convenient quarters furnished this jury and witnesses to such degree as to endanger the health of jurors and wit nesses and we demand as citizens and jurors that the county furnish and pro- vide comfortable quarters with suff- cient warmth, light and fresh air.
