Candidates Accounts Demanded

The grand jury concludes its report by
calling attention TO TIE failure of Ger
tain candidates for Office TO strictly oh
serve the provisions of the corrupt prac-
tees act, designed to prevent corruption
Of all kinds at primary and general cleo
tions.
In this connection the report says:
We find that the candidates Of one
party have filed statements of their en-
penses in the primary election campaign.
but that the candidates. with one excep-
ton, of the other parties have not filed
such statements and have totally ignored
this provision of the law.
We request that those candidates who
have not filed statements as provided by
law do SO at once, otherwise il is hereby
recommended that the prosecuting author
tiles proceed at once to prosecute them
for failure to comply with the law.
I'VE consider this law of prime import
ance TO the welfare OF our county and
state, and its rigid enforcement is de-
manded for the correction of many evils
that affiict the body polite. We respect
fully recommend TO all future grand juries
that all violations of any of the pro-
visions of the corrupt practices act he
presented and prosecuted To the fun eA-
tent of the law

Disgrace to County.

Inc report says:
I'VE found in the house twenty-six in

were colored and six white: three white
females. six colored females and five col
ored children
while in no wise censuring or re-
hecting upon those having charge OF
these unfortunates. We cannot too strong
ly condemn existing conditions which We
consider a disgrace to the county There
Is no way at present to segregate the
sexes. consequently the moral degradation
is most appalling.
children have been born there whose
fathers and mothers have not been away
from the institution since they came
there. We were told things which would
seem almost incredible
"One result of such immortality is that
the taxpayers not only have to pay for
the support Of these people. but Of their
illegitimate offspring. who in all proba-
bility will always be public charges. not
having the health and stamina to sue
cessfuHy fight their way through life
TO terminate this state of affairs we
most earnestly recommend the erection
of a separate building for women to pre-
vent the present promiscuous inter-
course between the men and women"
