Acting Fairly.
AVERAGE OF $500 A LIFE
Operations Will BE Resumed as Soon
as Remaining 100 Bodies Are
Removed from Shaft.

There are still about 100 bodies to
be recovered from the st. Paul mine, -
Mayor Charles P Connolly of Cherry.
H.. said yesterday at the New Harper,
where he was a guest over Sunday
while visiting friends in the city. For
a new and small town, we are for
tunate in having some good. sound
men to help us through our tragedy.
In all, 800 souls were sacrificed i'll the
mine. Our little town was just begin
ming to get under way. you might say
when overtaken by the horrible occur
renee. But we are bravely rounding
into shape. and while the affair will
live as long as memory, we are not
going to let it interfere with the prog
ress of our town. The mine will re-
sumo as soon as the remaining bodies
are brought to the surface. The own
ers of the mine have been wholly just
victims, more so than they have been
given credit for in the public mind.
Instead of passing into the hands of
a receiver, a legal recourse that could
have been taken advantage of were it
the desire to deny justice to those who
suffered because of the loss of their
loved ones. the owners of the mine
have come forward with reasonable Of
fers of settlement to all, and in the
majority of instances l believe these
will be accepted. An average of ST.,
500 for each life is being paid by the
company.
AppOrtiOninE Relief Funds.
at is requiring about 1,000 per weekto
meet the needs of the families whose
supporters lost their lives in the mine.
The basis under which we are dis
tributing funds is 81 per week for a
widow with 81 per week added for each
child. The company owning the mine,
too, has been liberal in caring for the
temporary needs of the sufferers. We
have had three funds: Miners. town
and Red Cross. The miners and town
funds have been held on deposit at our
local bank, but that of the Red Cross
has been deposited with the national
treasurer of that organization at Wash
ingtOn. While there was some con-
fusion at the start, we now have the
distribution of money and supplies on
a systematic basis. and all the deserv-
ing ones are being properly cared for"

saloon, but the proprietor refused to
accept it, as he remembered having
received one from the same man sew
eral days earlier in the week. It was
drawn on the Moline Trust & Savings

with the cashier there convinced the

forgery. or rather that the man had no
account at that bank. Fladlein had
disappeared while the telephone was
being used. and no trace of him could
be found. The polire were notified and
they warned other business houses

might appear. He did show up at

FOR SYSTEM
Supervisor Gould Wants Real
Estate Instruments Record
ed Differently.
SPECIAL BOARD MEETING
Proposition VIII Be Opposed by Some
of His Fellow Members-CaII
Is For Next Monday.

The board of supervisors has been
ordered to gather for a special meet
ing next Monday afternoon at ,
o'clock, notices to this effect having
been sent to the members today.
Nothing of especially great impor-
lance is scheduled for the meeting.
although it is understood that several
of the supervisors have measures
which they want considered. Among
these is a suggestion of supervisor
Gould, chairman of the committee on
public expenditures, that new sys-
tenn of recording real estate instru-
ments be introduced. The present
system is based upon the name of the
owner of each separate piece of prop.
erty and not upon the properties
themselves. The idea of the super
visor is to have the same system as
is in Peoria county, where the index
ing is done according to the land,
each instrument being recorded under
the head of the land to which it re-
fers and not under the name of the
owner
Plan Meets Opposition.
The supervisors plan meets with
considerable opposition among the
ones who are most intimate with the
style of records now being used here
they say that there is no need for
such an exact record as the tract sys-
TEN advocated by Mr.. Gould They
believe that where a man is interested
in a piece Of property he is interested
enough to find out who the owner is,
enabling one to get an abstract Of II
very quickly. The expense, too, of the
change they say would be very great.
County Clerk H. B. Hubbard Is
anxious that all persons having bills
against the county shall have them in
before the board meets. as none win
be considered which are received after
the converting of the board They
ought to be handed in to the clerk Mt
least three days before the meeting
so that they can be properly listed.
