ITO the Hoifprable Herbert +. Ray
Mods. Judg< Of the District Court.
"Sir, We. the grand jury empan-
eled and sworn on the 2lst day Of
September. 1871. for the September
term OF the district court, have COM
pleted our investigations and beg to
submit to YOU the following report;
I'VE have been IN session each day
from September 21st to September
2Sth. inclusive. except Sunday, the
9th. and in considering such cases
as have been brought before this
body for investigation have found
twenty-seven true bills and have found
no bin In nine cases. total OF 100
witnesses having been called to tes-
tify.
we have made investigation re-
garding the enforcing of the law rela-
tive to compulsory school attendance
and find that the law is apparently be-
ing enforced in a proper manner.
I'm accordance with the law we
have made very careful examination
of the county Jail and the county
buildings and have to earnestly rec
commend as follows:
That a bath tub of suitable size
be provided at once for use Of pris-
oners in the jail. such facilities now
being lacking.
Also that an addition to the JAIL
be constructed as soon as possible on
the west end of the main building
preferably of cement blocks TO con-
form with the present structure. this
addition to contain quarters suitable
for women prisoners and where they
may be kept completely isolated from
male prisoners, which it is not possible
to do with present facilities. Also to
have separate bath and toilet for ex-
elusive use of women prisoners.
I'VE also would recommend thai
the old adobe building now used Tor
certain women prisoners be replaced
by more substantial building and
that 1t be provided with proper toilet
facilities for their use.
I'VE are pleased to report that the
present buildings and quarters are
kept in very fair condition. the kitchen
particularly being clean and the pris-
oners all apparently satisfactorily led
I'VE recommend, however, tha'
some Of the beds and bedding in the
women's quarters in the old adobe
building should be destroyed and re-
placed with iron cots provided win
mattresses and covering which may be
cleaned when occasion requires.
AT the court house we find the va
rious offices TO be conducted In Q
most business-like manner, all RECORDS
being kept carefully and systematl-
cally, the physical condition of the va
rious records and documents all show
ing the painstaking manner in when
they are handled by the various offi-
GERS and employees.
We have also examined the various
quarters in the courthouse and fino
that additional fireproof vault facili'
ties are seriously needed in the OFFICE
Of the district clerk We would rec
ommend that such vault be provided
by making proper changes in the wing
north of the main office Room of thf
district clerk.
I'VE also lind that the county treas
urer's office is not equipped with
proper strong box or safe suitable foi
the protection of money. and we rec
ommend that same be provided at
soon as possible.
we also find that in several OF
the offices the walls are in need OF re-
papering. and the floors should be re-
carpeted.s especially in the offices OF
the sheriff. the district clerk and the
county clerk.
We find also that no proper room
or quarters are provided for the com
fort and convenience of witnesses, VINO
are now obliged to wait in the hall
ways. frequently for great length OF
time and in considerable discomfort
and we recommend that some room be
prepared for their use If any is avail
able.
We recommend also that all wood.
en- floors which are now in vaults uset
for storing records be replaced will
concrete floors, and wooden shelving
replaced with stee shelving as soon al
possible.
