SMITH ....................................................Manager M. J. WEBER.......................................... Resident Manager, Phone 69 Y es, the Lake county tubercular institute could b. filled with poor patients from neighboring counties if the. officiais wished to extend their charity elsewhere than li Lake county. BUT, it's been hard enough to get the matter through to the point where Lake county's tuber- cular people can b. cared for, without going into adjacent counties. Lake has done its part, let the others follow the example.. It's quite ovident that Lake county bas done more for its poor people of this character than the averagei county in Illinois. Judging from expressiohs on the supervisors' board, now that action toward testing the law and seeing whether the present treasurer shall turn back the interest on'pub- lic funds has been authorized, the board members Who hes- itated on passing such a resolution, will now Insist that previons treasurers and their bondsmen be placed in the saie position as the present trea.surer. lI other words, it's predicted by thos. vixo heard expressions on the board that the movement is now to be made general and that suits similar to tho Westerfield case w'll be ordered begun gainst hie sevoral predecessors. It looks as if the statels attorney's office la to be made extremely busy now trying to colect the interest which some aupervisors dlaim should have been turned over to the county for years. There'a much truth in the argument of certain super-1 visons, that ît doean'tseem just fair to single out Wester- field and aeok the returi of money claimed te be due the. county. If it's gong to be done with him and if his bonds- men are liable under the circumstances, why not include ail bis prodeceasors, for the bondsmen of their time are MtMl holden, and, If it w-as wrong for Westerfield, it w-as just as wîlong for bis predecessors. The answer is: What's the. use of going back? Start right now. But, that doesn't suffice-the interest on county funds, if it belongs to the county îow, belonged to it years ago, and the county should have it, just as much as the state of Illinois got the back taxes of the Illinois Central railroad-not for one year, not for Governor Deneen'i administration, but BACK MAINY YSEARS, Whymake distinction? Did you ever stop Wo think that Lake county asks ita board of supervisors to work for far less than most-of its members make per day in their regular routine? Such is the fact. Io it right that it should be so, even if there ARE uufficieut mon seeking the office in the various tow-n- 'ahipa? Wouldn't it b. more business-hike for the county to pay supervisora at loast $5 a day for their services li- atead of but $3? What membe"-f the board is there whose Urne wn't worth more than $3 a day when applied to the county business? If it isn't worth that much or more, thon h. isn't tho man tW transact county business. The tact it, it'a a ultime to ask a board Wo go into leîgthy ses- sions and devot. daya' of work W ceunty affaira for such a sum as $3 a day. We beliove the. public at large would -' gladly approvo a movement Wo make the. pay at least $5 a day-aid that would b. ciieap nough. The. time was when $3 a day-,porbaps covered the situation because men al- ways wore not se busy as they are now-a-days; W blave teir business in years past wasn't such an effort as now because of the. help problem, therefore, the county should expeet te properly remunerate good, efficient men w-ho are willing to it on the county board. It's economy to pay them properly; it's bovnd to bring out strong men for the. position. Tho Sun agrees with a number of members of tue board of appervisors that the. action taken Friday w-as quit. a littfé Wo hasty li ' removing from office Treasurer Westerfield" just because h. dld not see fit Wo answer certain questions rogarding a mooted question whidi State' A ttorney Dady had put W hlm. Ro w-a not, w-hen before tue board, in a court. of officiai record where hie case could b. legally passod upon as regards bis right Wo retain intereat on county funds. Mr. Dady thought ho had a right Wo make tue demand for certain information; Mr. Beaubien who la .qually regarded as an attorney with some knowledge of the law, insisted h. did not have Wo answer incriniinating questions of tht sort. Mr. Dady's opin- ions in such matters are, as he adnitted hast year before the board, "1Net impregnable, for, I have been know-n te make mistakes in law matters.l" We believe the more faix course to have followed would have been Wo have the in- terest matter tested in court first, and tuen, on failure of Westerfield Wo act in cae the ruling w-as adverse te hlm, the. board would b. justified in any step. However, until the courts havç settlod tue points involved which have been mooted for years, not only in Waukegan, but tbrough- out tue state, it seema as if a more considerate actin would have been received by people geîerafly as having the appearance of adeare tobe fair to thecouity trea- urer. Mr. Westerfield sincerely believes ho is entitled te the intereat, s.eing tht ho has furnished bis own bond; Mmay supervisorsanad citisens feel the same way; some Mupervisors iîcerely, feel otherwuse. AUl are entitled to tbeir opinions. The courts, and tue courts alone, can and j- vil uay w-ho is right. It seems as if that should b. tue <fratqauon to b. determned-not how- much he bas M& d, but, BIEfG THAT RE HMS HAD IT, WHOM VOIXT EILNG TO?
