The Danville News tells in amusing way how William
Moore "a temperance and churchman manuacturer all
good citizen and of the most prominent and
highly respected residents of Hoopston made that cele
brated town dry by getting jag of his own
The only liquor seller in Hoopeson in those days-away
back in 1872-was wholesaler named Musk The temper
ance people that Musk selling by the drink but
his would go any extreme to shield him and
it impossible to make out case against HIM that would
stick.
So Moore and friend of his started in accumulate
pair drinks dispensed by Musk and they succeeded
to the limit of their expectations
When the against Musk called there
two reputable citizens positively that the defend
ant had intoxicating liquor retail That put Musk
of business and Hoopeston has been dry since
Of course a temperance who would get drunk in
order city he lives in may be dry thinks great
deal of that city That's William Moore No thinks
more of Hoopeston than Moore and is reader
sound praises He believes that Hoopston has few
peers of any city country and he has compiled
statistics that show of her claims to distinction
Here of the things the figures he has made will
show you HOopeston has:
Numerous good factories including the American Canning
Co., the Illinois Canning Co., the Hoopeston Canning Co..
the prague Manufacturing Co., the Hoopeson Nall Co., the
Maeable Iron Works. planning mills and other smaller in
dustres valued at $15650OO, annually manufacturing ar
cles valued $3,375000; employing 145O men, paying
$5OOOOO annually wages and 81 800 in taxes all but
erected by home capital
100000 water works SYSTEM twelve miles OF paved
Streets three of them asphalt constructed at cost OF $780,
0O and all paid for fifteen miles OF cement sidewalks con-
structed at a cost of $33 OOO
The 100000 5story Wildon block handsome 4story
business mems club house. other handsome business build

shade than any other city it's size in the country
Three city parks valued $25OOO Of them the gift

donated by A. Honeywe $4,000 union railway stations
summer chautauqua with handsome chauauqua buildings
public school buildings and Greer college, valued at $20OOOO
and church buildings worth $15OOOO.
All of which would go show that Hoopeston mean
ctv place that William Moore will tell you is we'll worth
one nights jag to make dry

of his full effectiveness in labor and makes him too often

the University regents AMI passed a
motion calling for q committee Of

In the assembly, the matter was r"'

The senate committee has as mem.
hers. Senator BrOssmcr, Senator
Mack. whose bill for an auditor for
the University books started the dis
cussion. and senator Talman. Scna
tor Bell was named but withdrew in
favor of Mack.
The Appeal has contendcd for n

vcrsity, that the talk which has been
going around this state for many
months may be seutled that the
charges against the manage
mcnt Of the institution NAV be either

There Is no doubt that this talk
