OF the county to fix the bridge.
County Attorney Whitthorne said
that under the facts the county should
repair the bridge.
Squire Church insisted that since
the turnpike company did not own the

compel the company to move the gates

collecting officers be paid TO the trus

by law.
We also recommend that more sys

work house prisoners. and that where
Iecessary, an account be kept with
each prisoner.
We also recommend that the in.
come arising from the work house
prisoners be kept separate in order
that ii may be applied as directed b.

We also recommend that accounts
be kept with all individuals having an
account with the county extending
over a period Of time.
We recommend that all bridge war
rants be registered in the Office Of the

lie debt is of such amount that the
utmost care should be exercised IN
keeping the various warrants record
ed in order to prevent errors and mis-
takes.
We again call your attention to the
condition Of many Of the old records
of the county now stored in the base
ment. Some of these are valuable and
some are not but many Of them are
being destroyed and are in such a
condition as to be absolutely useless.
They should be preserved and stored
ia such a way as to be available for
use when needed We suggest the
of a committee to con
slider this matter.
We are glad to note that in all the
offices there has been considerable
improvement in the methods of work
and manner of keeping the books in
accordance with suggestions hereto
fore made.
The books of the county in each Of
flee should be so kept that they will
speak for themselves. and not neces-
sarily require explanation from the
party keeping them. All officers
should bear this in mind, all should
also give attention to the proper pre-
of the current books and old
books in their custody.
We make these suggestions in order
that the highest type of public serv-
Ice may be attained in all depart
ments of the county's affairs.

MORNING SESSION.

There was considerable discussion
of the road law and the recommends
lions of Judge Gordon to repeal the
special act and have the county
placed under the general laws were
passed over for final action at the
January term In the course Of the
discussion the constitutionality of the
new law was attacked as was also the
manner of its enforcement. This dis
cussion brought forth a statement
from County Attorney Whitthorne
that the fault was in the manner
in which the law had been enforced
and not In the law itself He said
that the only serious defect in the
law was the question of whether or
not the caption was broad enough to
cover the operation of the work house.
1t appeared from the discussion
that in electing the commissioners
under the law work House Commits
sioners" and not road commissioners
were elected. The county attorney
was directed to draft formal order
TO ratify the election and cure this
defect. The County Attorney charged
that the provision of the law requir-
ing that all contracts and papers be
first submitted to him had not been
complied with.
It appeared from the debate that
while there was a good deal of senti-
ment against the law, that when 1t
was fully understood there were a
number of justices with whom it found
favor, and there will doubtless be a |
lively time in January when the mat
ter comes up for final action.
There was another debate over re-
pairing the bridge across Duck river
near the city. The question of the
rights of the county and of the turn
pike owners in the road and bridge
was the subject of conflicting opin-
ions and the whole matter was finally
to the county Attorney with
to take such steps In the
matter as would protect the rights and
interests of the people and the county.
n necessary to institute litigation the
attorney was authorized to do so.
The County Trustee and County
Judge were authorized to borrow a
sufficient sum of money to pay coun-
" warrants as they would be issued
pending the collection of current tax

ton for a report from the Court

We the Revenue Commissioners re-
port as follows:
We submit herewith our report da-
ted August 8th, 1908, which gives in
condensed form the receipts and dis
bursements for the year ending July

condition of the county on July /.
We have made the trustees books the
basis for the report Judge Gordon
has carried during the year an account
in the name of w. o. Gordon, County
Judge, through which he has received
and disbursed about $4,000, part
of this sum was turned into the trus-
tee, but about 100000 was discussed
by Judge Gordon himself.
We again recommend that all mon
ey belonging to the county be paid
into the hands of the trustee and paid
out upon proper warrant. We do not
mean to say that any money has been
