view of securing employment as a teacher.
While at the Postoffice he was surrounded
BY gang Of fifteen or twenty armed rebels,
who demanded to know where he was from,
and what was his business. He politely and
| frankly answered the questions, when he
was told that they had determined that no
DID Yankee who had fought against the
South during the war should live in Mount
| Pleasant, and he must on pain OF death,
| leave the place within five minutes. lie
was followed three miles from the town, and
cursed, tanta LIKED, and repeatedly threatened

by Nixon, the town constable who claimed
to have ninety men under his command,
who would swear that no Radical Yankees

The Supervisors of Peoria County pay each Of
the papers in that county twenty-five dollars q
term for publishing the proceedings of their court
and this, exclusive of the county officers reports
which much the heaviest and costest part of
the Henry county proceedings. Exclusive of
such reports, the proceedings of our Board are
fully four times as long as they are in Peoria
County, owing to the lengthy reports of commit
tees which we publish ard which the Peoria pa
pers do not. In Rock Island county the printers
secure equally "fat takes as those of Peoria.
These counties also pay their clerks handsome
sums for copying the proceedings for the printers.
while the Clerk in this county has never received
any extra pay for such work.
We make these statements that our Board of
Supervisors may see how printers and clerks in
neighboring counties treated, not dreaming of
finding any fault with our County Legislature
Geaeseo Republic.
Rock Island county pays its newspapers
only $40 term for publishing proceedings,
officers reports and all, "a sum insufficient
to reimburse the publishers for actual "cash
money" they have to pay out, to compositors,
for setting the type. 1t ought to be $25, as in
Peoria county.
