Report Of the Grand
Jury for October Term


We, the Grand Jurors Of Ok
tibbeha county, beg leave to sub
init the following report:
We have been i'm session two
days, have examined 46 wines.
ses and returned 10 bills of IN
dlctment. We have inspected
the county jail. the courthouse
and all public buildings and tind
same i'm good sanitary condition.
We have inspected the county
poor house aud find that it has
13 inmates, all Old negroes, and
all in very good state Of health
and seemingly happy and con-
tented; the sanitary conditions Of
the poorhouse are good and the
buildings in good state of pre-
servation and repair The per
sion roll has been inspected and
investigated and we find but one
name on it which should be taken
off; this We have certified to the
Chancery Clerk as required by
law. The books of the cOun-
" are in good condition and we
commend the officers for ttelr
splendid attention to duty.
We have looked INTO the ques-
ton Of whiskey selling very
thoroughly and beg leave TO re-
port that we have been unable to
find a SINGLE instance of whisaey
selling in the county. In the past
our observation has been that
most crimes are caused IN whole
or IN part by Intoxicating liquors;
but IN this section and at tins
time we find no crime traceaole
tn liquor and as result We hnd
very few crlmes committed III
the county. We have found but
!! 10 true bills for all crimes. the
smallest number returned by any
! grand jury during the last tWen-
ty five years or longer. While
the diligence of the courts and
officers have contributed largely
to this splendid moral condition,
| we think the new law prohibiting
liquor shipments of over one
quart is the chief cause. This
law has practically put the blind
tiger out of business; and a :
though there may always be
some sporadic sales Of whlskeY,
we believe that as the quantity
shipped IN is limited to one quart
that the ''uger" is practically
eliminated. AS individuals and
as a body we hope thai the one
quart law will be sustained by
the voters when they go 10 the
polls on Nov, 9TH 1916; if for no
other reason thanLit fine effect
in suppressing CRIME and lessen
ing the expense and work OF the
| courts OF this county. We think
the justices Of the peace and con-
stables of the county are making
an effort to enforce the laws as
evidenced by the fact that they
are giving prompt trials and IN
posing reasonable penalties on
guilty persons instead of having
the old 81 90 and costs; and this
| is having the effect Of creating a
very wholesome respect tor the
courts.
We with to thank the court Of
| ficers for their efficient assist
ance and the many courtesles
shown us by these officers with
whom we had the most to do.
Respectfully submitted n $

PAUL REVERE STUNT
SAVES MANY LIVES
When Great Dam Broke
Mountaineers Rode Ahead
Of Flood with Warning

Asheville, N. c., Aug. 14.-How pos.
sible heavy loss of life in the villages
below the great Lake Toxaway dam was
prevented through daring ride of
mountaineers just ahead of the waters
when the retaining wall broke, was told
today BY survivors. The mountaineers
risked death, galloped through the vii
lagos telling of the floods that follow
eu them and warning residents to flee
to the hills Not life was lost.
Estimates today placed property loss
at half million.
Hints at rigid investigation and pos.
sible action developed today when it
became known that the great retaining
wall had been several times reported
leaking during the past year.
Shortly before noon Sunday a stream
Of alarming volume began seeping
through the masonary, watch was set
and about O'Clock the break ripped
wider and wider until it was apparent
collapse Of the wall was inevitable.
Hardy mountaineer horsemen volun-
teered to ride down the valleys, toward
men, women and children of the little
hamlets that would be swept. Travelling
short mountain cuts and often risking
their lives by breakneck speed along
narrow mountain side trails, the riders
kept just ahead of the waters.
