lie questioned the motives of the member ,
from Deer Park; believed his action was
dscourteous to the committee and members
of the board; that it was evident that the
chairman had the frightful itch for office, or
else he would not so much protest and that
his remarks were of such character that
he could not refrain from speaking his own
mind very plainly. The chairman dis
claimed any such position and thought the
gentleman from Eden misrepresented his
position, and that he desired it understood
that the people of Deer Park did not need
the gentleman from Eden as guardian.
Supervisor Fischer took up Supervisor
Gum cudgel and proceeded to berate the

Park as he termed it, because he believed
there was something back of it that neeGsl

Lewis answered him, than Supervisor Norton
moved that "the speech Of the gentleman

Supervisor Sawyer, of Eagle, who required
10 the explanation Of the chairman, thinking
it was uncalled for and out of place; that
the order o: the last board should have at
least fair trial before abolshng it. To
close the debate Supervisor Fischer moved
to lay the motion of the gentleman from
Earl upon the table, which motion was car
ried by an aye and no vote, 30 to 3. After
the referring to the committee on complaints
and Attachments of a petition asking a re-
bate of the tax on the personal property Of
William Ball the clerk proceeded to read OIL
the bills presented to the open board, and
the everlasting wrange about saving time
was entered upon. As the usual luncheon
hour approached the gentleman from Men
dota moved to adjourn until . o clock but
the motion was lost. The clerk then contin-
ued the reading of the bills while the mem
bers busted themselves talking among them
selves about the morning row.
At II o'clock the board adjourned, on
motion of Supervisor Hoge, until o clock
tomorrow.

Voluntarily, the members Of the Board of
Supervisors, representing the people of every
township in the county. have passed a reso-
luton, endorsing the candidacy of Hon. JAS.
W. Duncan for the position of District At
torney for the Northern district of Illinois.
Whether or not Mr.. Duncan secures the
place for which his friends have pressed
him, he will have the satisfaction of knowing
that throughout the long continued contest
his fellow citizens whom during the pat
four years he has served as a public officer
accorded him hearty support and warm
endorsement. Their testimonials are at least
witness Of the high estimation in which
his abilities and character are held among
his people, and in the county where he is
best known.
