4 llekling, to put up a suitable building, in this

that the attendance was too small to act upon the
proposition-thc being but four voter, present.
Now, "a far as we are individually concerned
although we might find a few more school days
beneficial to US vet we never expect to attend
the public schools in this town, neither have We
yet, to the best Of our knowledge, any postcrity
who would be likely to derive any benefit from
this building but, notwithstanding, We feel an in.
terest in the cause Of education, and regret that
there is so little feeling on the subvCt among our
citizens. There ara hundreds of our citizens whc
have children to educate and who should feel n
deep interest in the matter, who never think o
attending school meeting. Our town has not
even decent school house in it, and it is time
we should be moving There is now PROPOSE
tion-and liberal one too-made by responsible
men to build a good house-oac which would be
an ornament TO the town, if the citizens will only
get together and say go on The meeting al.

We have heard several express their surprise,
and even dissatisfaction tina, Mr. Hise should have
moved reconsideration Of the vote upon the bill
which passed the lower house on Tuesday last,
prohibiting the sale OF ardent spirits in less guam
titles than one quart, d.. We are satisfied that
did those persons understand the reasons for this
step on the part of Mr.. llise, they would be per
Gectly satisfied with it. The reconsideration was
not moved to defeat the law. by no means-bnt
to amend certain parts of it which seemed to him
defective, Mr. lise is a thorough going temper
ance man. and had no idea oiletting bill become
law which would only do the work half way.
As The law passed the house, aud We have no
doubt it will pass the senate it will have but little
force. ANY body can get few packages Of roots,
and herbs, and q shelf Of jars and bottles filled
with ague btters and essence Of peppermint, and
hang out 4 sign with DRUG STORE painted
on It, aud then sell all the liquor they wish, as
medicine Aud It was to block up such evasion,
that Mr. Hise moved a reconsideration

The population Of this county in 1910, was H.
ol3. But,t, territory then included the whole Of
the presen, county Of Guudy, two third, Of Ken
dali county, (siX town,hips,) and two townships
which have been annexed to Marshal county he.
Quoting the population Of all this territory,
mounting to at least 2jl3. it would leave the
actual population of the present territory OF La
Sale county, a, 1900 in 1910. The present re
turns then show that the population Of this coun-
ty has increased in the last ten years, within a
fraction Of / IS per cent, that is, at the rate Of
l3.So-loo per cent per annum
In 1915 the territory Of the county WI. the
same as at present and tie population WI, TO-,
li9 The increase for the last five wears has
been &c per cent, or at the rate Of fraction over
10 per cent PER annum.
The number Of squar, miles in the county is
1852, and the population is equal to 10! to the
square mile,
In 1870, the number Of Square miles was l7S2,
ard the population 50 to the square mile.
The present returns show the gratifying fac;
that the ratio Of increase Of population in /, Sale
county has been greater, for the last five years,
than that Of any other county in the state except
Cook, the ratio Of whose greater increase Is due
wholly to the City Of Chicago the returns Of
which have been Published; and this result rlH
not Be changed vixen the census Of the state is
completed.
In respect to the future, it is safe to assume
that the rSio Of increase for the next five years,
will not be less than at the rate Of ten per cent
per annum, which viii give in $50, popula.
ton or?6,7lS.
The number Of persons who died within the
year ending Jane |, 1850, in the whole county, is
lao, or Ill Of the population This is A very
low rate Of mortality; and when it is considered
that these return. cover tho deaths By cholera in
1919 it Is believed they justify the concu ion
that our climate is nowhere surpassed IN respect
to .alGbrity The number Of farms in the county.
ia l4lj, or one farm to every l26-l0 persons If
however, we deduct the urban population Of OF
tawa, Peru and Ii Sale amounting to 5.2i5 per
sons, there is one farm for every s9-l0 persons Of
the residue i25dS persons who complete the ru-
raj population.
A. but very few farms are owned by nou.rc.i.
dents of the county, the inference is that nearly
every occupant Of a farm owns it, and that tie
proportion Of free holders to the gross popaa-
ton i larger than can be easily met with else
where This inference i true in point Of fact is
corrobora;ed by the personal observation of the
assistant mnrshals, and can be demonstrated by a
resort to other statistics furnished by these re
turns.
These facts are derived from information fur
ui.hed US by the assistant marshals, who intend
at an early day to pursue the subject still fur.
