corporation OF a part OF South
Rock Island township by Rock Is
land township came up for further
discussion. Supervisor Bradley
stated that the committee had dis
eliminated against the largest town
ship in the county.
Supervisor Bailey raised the
point that when the city commits
sioners OF Rock Island asked the
board to create the new township
they requested the board to take
steps to create" the new township,
not to Immediately create it, and
that the action of the board Great
ing the new township mad been re-
scinded subsequently. and the rec
ords of the action taken creating
the township expunged from the
minutes.
His contention was that the board
had not actually created the town
ship, but had merely promised to
take steps to do so, which promise
was subsequently Withdrawn.
- Supervisor Schillinger reviewed
the history of the proceedings and
the state had pronounced the action
creating the new township legal,
in which opinion the states attor-
ney had concurred.
States Attorney Bell told the
board that he did not care to give
his opinion off-hand ON every angle
of the question. He suggested that
it would have been a good idea for
the board to consult him more fire.
quently and throw the RESPONSE
bility upon him if any mistake was
made, instead of requesting the
opinion of the attorney general.
Mr.. Bell said he knew of no rea-
son yet for taking a different view
of the incorporation proceedings
than he had taken before, but that
he would give his opinion formally
il he was given a days time.
A motion to adjourn until 2
O'Clock this afternoon was adopted.
