ICE IN KANKAKEE
TH|CKEST IN YEARS

Were 1t not for the fact that there
are fewer dams in the Kankakee river
today than there were twenty five
years ago the city of Wilmington
would be facing another disastrous
flood. The ice in the river now is
thicker than 1t has been for thirty
years according to the old residents and
a sudden thaw or heavy rain would be
liable to cause a gorge and endanger
the island and the low lands.
Wilmington his had two disastrous
floods in its history, the first occurring
in 1867 and the second about 's3 Tho
second of these took out the old wood
en- bridge across the river which was
replaced by the present iron structure
which was the first bridge in the coun :
ty built with county aid
The cause of these gorges was the
two dams below Wilmington, one at
which blocked the flow of ice SO that
the river overuowed its banks and
great damage was done. These dams
have long since been destroyed so that
now there is nothing to obstruct the
ice ow unless gorge should be formed
| in the bend of the river below the city
and this is not probable.
1t is seldom that the river freezes
across because Of the swift current but
the recent severe cold spell has formed
! Ice fourteen inches thick in the thread
| of the stream and nearly two feet
thick in the still waters.-Joliet News

SWEARS BY
WESTERGREN

Hobart township statesmen who
thought that they had the drop on
Judge William westergren. who pre-
sides over the common peoples. SUI
preme court in Miller. finds that he still
is an active candidate for the republic
can nominal ton for sheriff
All along 1t was thought that a nice
joke would be sprung upon the Miller
jurist by telling him later on that a
holder of judicial office cannot seek
any other elective office until at least
one year after his term expired. So
they smiled.
However, the judges friends will
learn here that for the first time that
he has cleverly evaded the statute
When reelected to the wolsack for
the second time Judge Westergren did
not qualify for the office. His opponent
failed to notice this in the ten days
time SO under the statute Judge Wester
gren holds office until his successor is
duly elected and qualified. There will
be no election for couple of years yet
SO IL the court falls down In his
shrievalty ambitions he will still have
the job of dispensing justice in the
north end of Hobart township.
