The Grand Jury Report
Snyder, Texas March 80.

Snyder, Texas March ~, lSlz
To the Honorable Jno b. Thomas.
Judge OF the District Court of
Scurry county, Texas.
Now cones the Grand Jury and
begs leave to submit to your honor
this It's final report.
Our body has been in session for
period OF ten days, and we have
found the following number of in
dictments: Four felonies and 10
misdem eanors. During our deliber-
alton we have examined about 1875
witnesses, summoned before us from
all parts OF the county and from in
vestIgation which we have made, be-
lieving the same to be thorough, IL is
the opinion OF this body that there
is no increase of crime in this county
but on the other hand the condition
as to crime is apparently on the de-
crease.
In our investigation we find that
the officials Of the county charged
with the enforcement OF the laws are
doing their duty and we take this
occasion TO commend them for the eff
ficient serviceswhich are being rem
dered in this respect, and urge upon
our officials a continuance of the en-
forcement OF all laws without relax
alton or compromise. We make
this suggestion to the various Justi-
ces Of the Peace and Constables, how
ever, to be a little more diligent in
looking after the misdemeanors with
in the Jurisdiction OF the Justice
courts and thereby relieve the grand
iurles Of investigating matters Of
such character as could be promptly
disposed OF in such courts not only
as to saving OF time to this body and
an expense to the county calling for
an investigation by this body. and
which would be advantageous 20 the
citizens who might be charged with
offenses within the jurisdiction Of
said courts.
The particular matters that We
call the attention OF the Constahles
and Justice Of the Peace officers at
tention to Is a more strict enforce
ment OF the Sunday laws, as we and
that to some extent these matters
are being overlooked and We believe
that by thus calling the attention Of
the various officers to their duty In
this respect that the law will be OBJ
served by the business men on sun
day
As is we'll recognized by all men,
this Is an age OF extravaganza not
only among the people In their pri-
vate affairs. but in the administra-
ton Of public AFFAIRS as well, which
is a grave menace as we view IL TO
the welfare Of the people at large
and especially to the interests Of our
county as she ID Just now coming in
to her own, and taking her place by
the side Of most progressive and
advanced counties OF our State. we
recommend and call the attention
OF the Commissioners Court Of this
county and other officers charged
with the collection and expenditure
OF the money belonging TO the people
In the administration OF county az

exercised and that absolute care and
investigation should be used By the
