COUNTY FINANCES.
Ten Thousand Dollars Missing.

EDIroR ARGUS see in the report Of the
committee made to the Board of
Supervisors at the September term, 1871
that the committee reported they had exam
ined the account and report of D. 0. Reid,
county Treasurer, and had received of the
Treasurer, vouchers as follows, viz;
County orders al, 1912.
Jury certificates 3,547 80.
$5l,46l.l2
and the committee reported they had can
cslled the same on the county books and
recommended that the vouchers be burned
in open court.
Now see by the report of James NJ.
Beardsley, Clerk of the county court Of
Rock Island County, made to the Board of
Supervisors, March 7. 1872, and approved
BY the Board, that only Sal ,46l.l2 of COM
ty orders and jury certificates were cancsll-
ed up to January first, 1872, four months
after the reports OF the county Treasures
and finance committee were adopted, leau,
ing difference of Ten Thousand Dollar,
not accounted for. The report of d. o.
Reid, County Treasurer, was referred BY
the Board of Supervisors, to the
finance committee, and they recon-
mended that the report be approved ant
recorded, and their report was adopted.
Ii does seem to me, that there is some
thing wrong in the management of our coun
~ finances when we can find difference o
ten thousand dollars in one item 10 the re
port of the county clerk compared with thu
report Of the County Treasurer, and tina
report endorsed by the finance committee
and both reports approved by the Board o
Supervisors.

DEArB OF DANIEL BoSAR.-Daniel b.
uar, who filled the office Of clerk of Henry
county for sixteen successive years, and
was well known to many Of the citizens Of
Rock Island, expired on Sunday last, al
Cambridge. His funeral obsequies took
place yesterday, with Masonic rites BE
had resided in Henry county for twenty
five years, Noticing the sad event, the
Peoria RerieU says
Probably no man was better known in
Henry county and the adjoining country
than Daniel Bonsr, and certainly no man
could have been more respected and more
universally esteemed In public and in
private life the deceased lived a man Of IN
impeschsble morals and honesty. He new.
er lost friend or made an enemy, and his
loss will be sorely fel. by the community OF
which he has long been an exemplary, hon
ored aud useful member No words that
we could write would be so bright and just
an eulogy on the mans memory as his life
was. A character without stain or re-
prosch, is his noblest and most fitting mou-
ument.
