who reside in the Rock Island
school district.
This year a new feature Is incor-
porated, the census takers being
instructed to ascertain the status
of each family of foreign origin
with reference toward naturaltza-
ton. This information is being
sought by the federal government.
Taxpayers of the city have a d.
rect interest in seeing that the
county is 100 per cent complete, for
the school district benefits to the
extent of about S125 for each name
of a person less than Fl years old
listed. This money comes from the
county diMributable fund which
originated chiefly in the allotment
of the state distributable fund This
money is distributed on the basis
of population of school age, and 1t
therefore is of vital interest to the
district to obtain a complete rec
ord.
Superintendent E c Fisher calls
attention to the fact that the CEN
sus should show all persons not yet
81 years old, whether they are menu
bers of the family or merely room
ers or boarders.

(SneciaI to The Argnsl

Springfield, Ill., June 0.-Ine
Illinois supreme c0urI Today de-
MED the petition for a rehear-
ing of the county of Rock Is
land in the state of the Bishop
Edmund II. Dunno. in which the
supreme court ordered the cir
cult court OF Rock Island cOun-
~ 10 grant an injunction re-
StraiDing the county from build
ing Il new jail on the c0urt
house grounds. The county
later today flied notice that it
will appeal the case to the
United States supreme court
With the denial Of a rehearing
in the Jail injunction uit, the coun-
ty of Rock Island had but one re-
course, according to previously an
nounced intentions, that of appeal
ing the decision of the state SUI
preme court TO the United States
supreme court.
The firm of Searle & Marshall,
special counsel for the county. was
authorized at the last session of
the county board to ask for a re-
hearing in the case before the SUI
preme court of the state, and, If
denied, to carry the case to the
United States supreme court.
Because the question Of impair
ing the obligation of the contract
involved in the suit, was entered
into by the supreme court of the
state, counsel for the county has
told the board that the case can
be carried to the United States SUI
preme court, inasmuch as the leg
islation impairing the obligation Of
the contract, is prohibited in the
constitution of the United States.
AS a general rule. only cases in
which the constitution of the
United States or its provisions are
involved can be carried to the Unit
ed States supreme court.
The board of supervisors meets
Monday of next week at which time
the body will be informed Of the
ruling of the state court.
Ruled OF Square.
The state supreme court six
weeks ago granted an injunction to
Bishop Dunno restraining the coun-
ty of Rock Island from erecting a
jail on the court house square, the
principal holding of the court being
that since the county board of SUI
peryisors had been advised that the
Igoe law would become effective on
July I, 1915, action in starting the
construction of the building three
days before was contrary to the
law because the county knew its
action in starting construction
would be violation of the law
after the Igoe law went into eff
feet. The Igoe law provides that
no Jail can be erected within 200
feet Of a building used for school
purposes. st. Joseph's parochial
school. across Fourteenth street
from the court house, IS within 200
feet Of the site of the jail
