SOLDIERS, RELIEF FUND.

The board Of supervisors, at Its late session
cut off any further rcliefto the families Of sol
die:s from this county now fighting for the
union. We think this is an act Of bad faith
towards the soldiers. When they enlisted
thew were given to understand that the fami
lies Of such Of them as had not the means &c
make them comfortable during their absence
should be provided for by the county. This
has been done up to the present time but the
board now refuses TO extend any further re-
lief. Some Of these soldiers are nov prison.
ers Of war and, Of course cannot draw their
pay to send home to their families. Many
others have left wives and children who are
destitute Of the common necessaries Of life.
How are these poor people to live?
1t is true that the board recommended the
towns to raise money, by taxation, for their
relief, But where is the power to do this {?
The board does not say-and we doubt if the
towns could enforce the collection Of such Il
tax, il assessed
There are other objections to this course.
The towns which send few or no soldiers would
beyo I;,,,s or ro,h;,, :, ,oy I, roo, ,bov
would neither furnish men 10 fight, or pay

BoUGHr rP,-We understand that the Hi.
nois Central railroad company have purchas.
ed the Chicago Tribune and other leading re.
publican papers until after the day set for the
vote TO be taken on the new constitution. -
This accounts for the ialsehoods and abuses
heaped upon that instrument by those Jour.
mails.
The new constitution secures. beyond the
reach of future legislation, the states reye.
nue. from the proceeds Of the Illinois Cen.
trai railroad, amounting annually 10 over
900, and it is not to be wondered at that
few yenal newspapers shoud be bought up
TO labor for its defeat The lIinoi, Central
railroad could well aH'rd 70 spend few
hundred thousand dollars if it could accom-.
plish the defeat Of the new constitution; and,
therefore it is safe to conclude, when we see
newspapers going out of their usual course
70 falsity and oppose it, that there i. "a brlbo

The New Constitution.

Ia the new constitution the question U.
salaries is left with the legislature for mos,
Of the officers, and there will be no end to
their extravaganza, or the paying Of taxes
by the people. -knor hcpuJiirn.
AS the Republican claims the state as Il re.
publican state, and as the new constitution
will give the republicans a majority in the
Legislature, according to the vote Of 1880 we
are surprised TO see 80 frank an admission
that there will he no end to the extrava
gnnce' Our cotemporary is certainly hon
est, public opinion to the contrary notwith.
standing. The last regular session Of the
legislature was largely republican, and the
salary Of the members footed up s. 100 --
The extras Of the se~.ipu--ucws papers post
age, gold pencils, pocket knives, &c, which
they voted to themselyes--co,t the state S23,
600 more, making the expense Of the session
on those two items alone S3l 600. The new
constitution fixes the salary Of representatives
at g per day, and cuts off the extras, thereby
saving the state $4,000 on every session -
Figures cannot be made to lie, and therefore
our cotemporary omts them from his labori.
Gus articles against the new constitution.-
