Please deliver TO Mrs. Baker two 5O-l0O dollars
per week in goods until this order is revoked or

La Sale county, Illinois.

S4750 were drawn. This order ran from
March 0 to July II, 1885.

IF the pauper; and intoxlcants can not be so

of the pauper; and intoXicants can not be so
considered
The committee further call attention to the
fact of the regular increase IN pauper eX-
pcuscs in the county, and thls increase Is
much greater than that in population, \ Ia
bic of nuupcr , Npcuses for series OF years
beginning with lSsl, aud ending with Sept
lSNj l. given be Ow.
II wa, found, if the committee should at
tempt 10 rive An itcmled statement OF all the
different kind of luNurics, bought on county
account. that too much space would be re
quirrd. rs the articles ran from cassia and
nutmcss down through figs, rat>ins, cu,rants,
canned fruits of different and all kinds, candy,
chocolate, puyer'Zcd sugar, bird seed, CHINA
mon, mpioca, cocOanut, tobacco, jelly and
bananas.
Very little has been said in the foregoing,
I'm regard to dry goods from the fact that few
dry goods were bought during the time Gov
cred by the report. Scyenty.ivc dollars will
more than cover all the expenditures for such
goods tor the time mentioned.
The committee recommend that in all
cases where people are sufficiently able, and
liable by law To support their pauper relatives,
they be compelled to do so, 10y suit if neccs
sary, brought by the prosecuting attorney.
This recommendation is made for the reason
that our attention has been called to the fact
that paupers are now receiving county aid,
who have relatives with sufficient pccuniary
means to render them liable for the support
of their INDECENT kindred.
Ia numerous Instances ii is found that a
credit account has been kept for a cOnsidera-
BILE time with an individual who finally pays
his book debts by applying supervisors or
ders for that purpose. 1t seems to be time
for the county to stop that method of doing
business.
The committee desire to call attention to
the increase Of pauper expenses in the town
of La Sale, and as the most direct way Of
doing so, give the following figures;
