TnE TOWNSHIP BOND TROUBLE NOT
YET SETTLED.-Yorkville, May 13.-
The refusal Of the County Commiss toner's
to turn over tho bonds Of the Three C's
Railroad, after the Supreme Court has
declared the validating Act of the last
Legislature constitutional, has again
brought the bond question prominently
before our people. The wisdom Of this
action on the part of the Commissioners
is severely criticised by some, while
others strongly uphold it. AS far as
can DO learned, it is tho intention of
these County officials, acting under ad-
vice of counsel, to refuse to i,ue their
certificate until compelled to- do so by
the Legislature. claiming that the decision
of the Supreme Court is oJitcr dictd.

A fac-simile Of the first issue ofthe Public

that issue, well. We were about 20 years
old, and an apprentice. Tho Ledger was
published in two Of the small rooms in the
old. Arcade, and on going from work the
night before We stepped into the press room,
whore We found tho pressman, . big tall

pretty badly intoxicated; the press, smsl
Washington hand press, was not put up,

us to "put up" the press for them. We wen

for work, when Grant woke up, and seeing
us at work, he con meneed abusing N

It was decided to leave the matter OF val
uation to three arbitrators, their decision to
be final. A. f. Heating, Timothy O'Leary
and Charles G. Scaite were selected. The
following was the result of their appraise-
ment: Tools, machinery, stock, etc., of the
company, $35, $40 67; outstanding accounts
less Indebtedness. S33, ,523 80; good will of
the firm, S48, 900; profits on orders in hand,

he has refused, and the money is still due.
In addition he owes his share, three
fourths, of the fees of the arbitrators, 81, 900
each, and three-fourths of 50, 900, salary due
the bookkeeper, G. P. Duff, making his al
legged Indebtedness in all $50, ,635 "a.
