E. J. Duffy khowa. That tho outstanding In debtedness of tho county amounts to $1H,000 Is among tho findings of tho grand Jury In tho semi-annual survey of county affairs. Tho report n full Is an follows: To tho Honorable T. E. J. Duffy, Judge of tho circuit court of tho State of Oregon, for the county of Deschutes: We, tho undersigned, grand Jurors, li..vlnif linon nm nnnnlleil and sworn. itf! constituting tho grand Jury of this county for the April, isizz term oi the said circuit court, desire to re port as follows: Poor Well Carol For Wo 'have completud our Investiga tions 'of all criminal matters com ing to our attention, or which have been brought beforo us by the dis trict attorney' for this county. We have also Investigated and ex amined Into the condition of all conn ... . ... ... (3f ly omces ana county properiy, m-. Bk eluding tho manner In which the poor of this county aro being cared for. We find that the poor aro ap parently woll cared for, but would rocommend that a showing bo made by those indigents receiving finan cial assistance from tho county sim ilar to that mado by those receiving widows" pensions. We further fjnd that tho proper harmony does not exist between the county court and tho offlco of the county' clerk. Inventory Asked Wp furthor find that thuro aro no proper records whirouy a taxpayer ran detormlno whero and for what purpose county road monuy has boon expended. Whllo such records may not bo' specifically required by law, wo do believe by closer co-oporntlon botwoen tho county fiou'rt and , tho county clerk, a system of records could bo maintained whorcby this Information would bo nvallablo to any taxpayer who might bo Inter ested. We fall to find any Inventory of s ft I I ft county equipment, nm! would recom mend that such an Inventory bo made forthwith, and filed In tho offlco of tho county clerk, and that nil county equipment bo immediately marked with some Identifying murk showing it to be tho property of tho county. Wo hnve examined the county Jail, nnd find that for tho impruvumut of tho lighting, as well as for sani tary reasoiiH, tho Interior should bo glvon a coat of white ml nt. Incli'litcxliios l,aruc Wo havo made an exhaustive ex amination Into tho present flnnuclal condition of tho county, and find that there Is nt tho present time out standing and unpaid In excess of $02,000.00 general fund warrants, and in oxccsh of JG2.000.00 general road fund warrants. It appearx that the principal caitso for this excessive Indebtedness In tho general fund has been caused by Impropor transfers being made from this fund to re tire road fund warrants. Wo do not bellevo that the proper attention linn1 been given by tho county court, and particularly by tho county Judgo, who Is continually In direct touch with county affairs, to tho manner in which the county money Is expended, or this condition would not exist ut the present time. Wo do bellevo that sonio of tho expenditures in cluded In this Indebtedness wero Jus tified, but wo aro unable to sco when tho county court was warranted! til exceeding tho constitutional limita tion of Indebtedness to tho oxtent that they have. Wo aro unablo to see any method by which tho county can bo placed on a cash basis short' of two or tliroo years, but would rec ommend that tho county court take Immcdlnto stops to bring this condi tion to pass at tho earliest poHslblo dato. Wo havo Investigated tho offices of tho county clork, tho sheriff, tho assessor, tho treasurer, nnd tho school superintendent, uml find them conducted in an efficient and econ omical manner, nnd wo deslro espec ially to commoud tho sheriff for tho efficient manner lu which ho has en forced tho prohibition law, Ituspoctfully submitted, D.
