We find that the sheriff Is regu larly turning over to the treasurer, funds collected by his office, and complying with the law in this re spect.

It is the belief of this Jury that the county court is conducting the coun ty affairs In a careful arid business like manner. We have reached this conclusion only after careful Inquiry, having in mind the many criticisms of their conduct of the county affairs. District Attorney. ' This jury believes that the county's Interests which come under the ju risdiction ot the district attorney are betng well protected. The work Im posed by the Bank of Jacksonville cases has been very heavy and we be lieve that no effort has been spared to bring the guilty ones to justice and to protect no one.

The old est member of the family was Valney Colvlg, 80 years old. The patriarchs were Valney Col vlg. (ieorge Colvlg and William M . Colvlg, all ot whom crossed tbe plalus in 1851. Judge Volney Colvin was repre sented at the gathering by the fol lowing members ofjils family: Mrs. O. V. (iillett and son tleorge Virgil Mr. and Mrs T. W.

This would mean an annual. Income ot $40,000 at a twenty mill rate after paying for tn cruise. This Is good business the amount of the county's claim by that sum.

This will place the - information squarely before the county 'colirt. It 1 pertinent tf state that the statutes read that no county or state official other than the treasurer Is criminally IkMe for th loss of the treasurer'' funds, unless it can be shown that such official is a party to an illegal act, which result in a loss. County' Court Exorwuteil . It Is tbe opinion of this jury that produced to show liability on the part of any county official, but we do know that monthly statements from the banks holding treasurer's de posits, setting forth tbe dally bal-, ances and interest thereon were a part of the papers turned over to the county clerk by the treasurer and filed without presenting them to the county court for review. - ' The auditor' report for .1919 wherein tbe deposit In the Bank of Jacksonville showed about $64,000 on December 31, 1919, was accepted, approved, and' filed by the1 county court June t, 1920. This Jury is of the opinion that the annual audit should be ordered by and made to tbe "grand jury, and then made ' public. While all rec ords are acoessable to a grand jury, tbe examination ot the audit should be specifically a part of their duties and If made to them, it would be come necessary to accomplish this. County Goveruruerat Faulty. It is the opinio not this jury that the present method of county gov ernment Is faulty. As the county of ficials are elective, there seems to be no authority. to remedy a possible lack of co-ordination between offi cial. Irregular action upon the part ot one official cannot be cor rected by another. Just why county government Is so organized when a city, a state and the nation have au thorltlve heads Is possibly explain able, but to this Jury the question Is unanswered. Whether he county court should be made responsible for the lawful and businesslike conduct of the country's affairs, or whether a single head should be entrusted with this duty, is a matter of opin ion. ' Under the present laws, the only method ot procedure against an of fending official seem to be by I grand Jury action, which is both uncertain of prompt action and da; pendent upon the official being re. ported to the jury. At the best, a grand jury can only Investigate, rec ommend and report their findings, trusting to public opinion to compel correction. Criminal act are of course, a matter of the prosecuting attorney and the grand Jury, but by correcting wrong doing and unbusi nesslike methods before they lead to criminal acts, would save the. ex treme penalty to the Individual and the public. The Bank of Jackson vllle is the best evidence ot this point, for even If the treasurer's over-deposits in that bank had been detected by another county officer, the law provided no possible method for stopping further deposits and compelling correction (ot the error, It is the hope ot this jury that some organized body of representa tive citizens will Interest' themselves In an attempt to, recast the entire matter of county 'government by legislative action. Pending such action, we believe it desirable that the grand Jury be used by the county officials as a clearing house for investigation and publicity where matter need at tention beyond , the powers ot tbe county officials; and further thnt succeeding grand Juries take upon themselves the duty. 1 CAR COLLIDES WITH .
