REFUSE TO ACT
UPON union OF
TWO TOWNSHIPS
Consolidation Of Rock Island and
South Rock Island May Be
LIN Courts.

Judiciary committee OF the board
Nc supervisors, to which was sub
mitted resolution Of the city coun-
ell Of Rock Island, urging CONSOLE
aation OF the townships of Rock Is
land and South Rock Island, re-
ported to the board this morning
that such action seemed inadvis-
able The committee recommended
that the city institute court action
10 determine legality OF the pro-
posed proceedings.
The report explained that the
recommendation to refer the pro-
posed consolidation to the city
council is made because '+the reso-
luton raises a question of the con-
struction Of the terms of the stat
ute providing for SUCH consolida-
ton. and also because there seems
TO be no provision made for that
portion of South Rock Island town
ship not included in the city of Rock
Island" Committee members af
firm that they believe the matter
should be referred to the city coun-
Gil that that body may take it up
in the circuit court.
Committee business occupied
most of the time of the supervisors
this morning. and it seems that a
very busy session is indicated.
There is some talk of adjourning
until the Mercer county fair is over,
but thus far no resolution of that
sort has been offered.
Upon assembling the board ap-
proved a report made Chief In
spector ]. p Morrison on the con-
dition of the boilers in the court
house plant, and referred a COM
munication from the Mercer county
supervisors that Rock Island coun-
ty owed $5701 for its share in the
construction of a bridge between
Mercer and Rock Island counties at |
New Boston, to the committee on I
roads and bridges. The bridge cost !
$68082 and this county paid 1903 40 /
