To Mg Board of Supervisors of Tompkins Cotoz y•
The majority of your committee appointed to inquire into the
legality of printing the.Sessidn Laws- in,•the Groton •and Lansing
Journal, would respectfully report that they have carefully inves-
tigated the matter, and find. from the statute and the decisions
thereunder that it would not be in compliance' with the law to have
the Session Laws printed:in such newspaper, and are of tlie, opinion
that ballots cast for sueli paper would be of •no effect, "arid if chosen;
the Board could be compelled by nand;imus to select two newspa-
pers, fairly representing the two principal political parties- into
which the people of the County are divided.

A\Thole munber of votes cast were 0, of which the Ithaca Demo-
crat received 5, the Ithaca ,Toternal received 3, and the Groton and
Lansing ,Tournnal received 1: The chairman declared the Ithaca
Democrat and the Ithaca Journal as the two newspapers designated
by the Board in which the Session Laws foi• the ensuing year be
published. . •
Mr. Chapman offered the following preamble 'and resolution:
117/erea8, bills for printing 121,1 folios at twenty cents in two papers amount-
ing to $724.40 have been audited by this Board, for printing the Session Laws
of hist year, and although the printing of said laws appears to be of very little
value to the tax -payers of the County, yet as the statute now stands this Board
is compelled to appoint two papers to print or publish the same; and
Whereas,' it appears from information obtained such as the proceedings of the
Board of Supervisors of Cortland County, in fixing the price at ten cents per
folio, the offer of the Groton and Lansing Journal company to print. the same
at eight cents per folio, and from other sources, that we have been paying.
largely in excess of a fair compensation for such work; therefore he it
IZesdved, That the price for publishing the Session Laws the ensuing year
shall be fixed at ten cents per folio. '
Beers moved to strike out the preamble in the above resolu-
tion; and also moved that the word. "ten" in said resolution be
stricken out, and in place and stead thereof the word "fifteen" be

GENTLEMEN OP TIt}. BOARD: --
T thank you for your kind approval of my course
siding officer; and permit rne.in turif to congratulate
termination of your labors as a County Legislature.
I_.arn well aware that the taxpayers of our county look with. de-
served dislike upon any idle and unnecessary waste of public time
and money. Birt gentlemen, could they witness as I haw, with
what assiduity and fidelity you have labored during this session,
we should hear no complaints on that subject.
The late election has proclaimed in a language too plain to be
misunderstood, that officials are responsible to the people who
elected thein for a proper performance of their public duties and
trusts; well have you heeded its warniarg voice.
This session I believe, will merit the approval of all those who
are in favor of an economical and prudentmanagement of our pub-
lic affairs. I have endeavored to perform, the duties imposed up-
on inc with strict impartiality, if I have erred, I regret it.
We probably shall not "all meet again in our present capacity;
if not, I trust the recollection of the hours we have spent. together
will remain with all of us a bright spot upon the memory of our
political lifc. Time will ever soften the asperities growing out of
a political career—will bring out in full relief the pleasing virtues
of those with whom we have associated.
as your pre -
yon upon the
58 ' SIIPEntiso Ls' PROCEEIIItiGS.
Again gentlemen, I express to you my warmest thanks for the
many courtesies received during the session of this .Board.
There being. no further business the minutes of the day's pro-
ceedings were read and approved, and on motion the .Board was
declared adjournecl without day.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON COUNTY BUILDINGS.
The Committee on County Buildings would report that their at-
tention was called by the Superintendent to the condition and sit-
nation,of the barn and outbuildings on the County farm; and find
the barn to be in a dilapidated condition, insufficient in capacity,
and unsuitable for storing the wheat necessary for the inmates, or
grain for the stock on the farm.
.And also find that other outbuildings form a continuous line from
house to barn wliich would in case of fire render it impossible to
save any of them.
Attention was also called to•a situation suitable and convenient
for a basement on which the barn could be"placed; also to the _fact
that stones sufficient and of good quality were already on the
ground.
Your Committee would recommend that this Board endeavor to
interest the taxpayers of the several towns, to give such 'expression
of their wishes as will lead the Board of Supervisors in the near
future to feel authorized to make such improvements as seem to
be necessary. ••Respectfully submitted,
