The board of supervisors did pracTi-
cally nothing of Importance today al
though they were in session both
morning and afternoon. They did mot
convene in the morning until about IL
o'clock and they adjourned shortly af-
terwards. The afternoon session be-
gan at 8 o'clock. County Clerk Hub
bard had an important communication
from Major Charles Keller of the!Unit-
ed States engineers corps regarding
the proposed bridge over Rock! river
between Rock Island and Henry coun-
ties. The major warned the board not
to proceed with the building of the
bridge until such time as the war de-
partment at Washington Is heard from.
The river has lately been declared
nav1gable and any bridge which is
erected must meet with the approval
of the war department. 1t will have
to be consulted before the work is
done.
Salaries for Deputies.
The question Of salaries for the dep
uttes, turnkeys and bafliffs in the sher-

afternoon after the salaries of the
other county employees had been dis
posed of, but no definite action was
taken. The matter was referred to
the judiciary committee and It was Or

it's findings in the matter. 1t is be-
lieved that ;ne board eavo:s keeping
the salaries as they are at the present
time.
The matter Of securing quarters
for the probate judge and clerk was
referred to the committee on public
expenditures and will report back to
the board. It seems likely that the
quarters Of the county Judge may be
shared by the county and probate
judges.
