Freund, ool 2184 78 :-H^°It is well known that many re* jjiibSiea.n members of the state miltia #oted for Altgeld on the ground that Rfer had used his appointing power in connection with the organization for personal political purposes. How do t&ose republicans like the way Altgeld it tarrying partisanship into the state fiifitia. V" 19" Mr. Cleveland must take special •'^^Jleasare- in stirrisg up the race preja- ; dicss of the Auetrians. He did it during ltis first administration by appointing a minister whose wife was a Jewess, and, ' again he repeats it by sending a Jew to be TL S. Consul General at Vienna. The Auuiriaus reiuseu to reeei re the minister, and the indications are they will make tejv-jkingB very unpleasant for the new Con- ^'f/plil General. % I®" Charges are made that Ex-Secre- ^ fery of State Foster provided too liberal- |y and extravagently for the expenses of the Bering sea commission, of which he - is now counsel, and there has been a #*- jfipeat waste of the public funds. Doubt- lees there is another side to the story. Gen. Foster has been in the diplomatic - service all his life and should know what , is proper. It is well to wait for his state- f; ment before passing judgment, Infor- | illation so far savors of a desire for sensationalism on the part of Washing- ton correspondents and those eager to pickup some flaw in the Harrison ad­ ministration. IVChicago must yield the palm for the number of divorces to San Francisco. Chicago is only second. Professor Wil- eOx has been investigating the matter Mid has also found that Japan alone Wirpassee the United States in tbe di­ vorce rate. It would seem to be due to tbe ease with which divorces may be obtain­ ed here, for Canada has but one-twentieth the number and fickle France frees only •ne-third as many from the conjugle bond. Of all countries Ireland must be tte home of love and purity, for the United States exceeds that country three hundred and thirteen times. Tbe Irish­ man certainly does not quarrel with his wife on the question of "home rule." Total 18 Fund* expended and for uhat pttrpot* expended. 1892 April 80^ John W.

Markham has signed, so it is f"-: Jpow a law; the immediate effect of which Will be to liberate from the two prisons Of California more than one thousand prisoners who have served one year or J • * • more of their first term. This is carrying confidence in criminal humanity to a A; very great extreme. Possibly they may fuBtify this confidence by good behavior In the future. It would aSord a very hopeful view of the criminal classes were It to prove a justification. It is an ex- s ample which other states would be glad f ^ *°^owj shonld it prove safe to do so. ^OT a conclusive judgment on its merits f|5v^the world must wait to bear how the V- generosity is requitted by the liberated ^ convicts. QQ-Mlff-R-N-nA-BT.-R The 'Woodstock Democrat, of Satur- last, under the above head, has the following: For more than twenty years prior to the bringing of the recent prosecutions againBt Circuit Clerk W. P. Morse, it has ^ ,1 been the practice or custom of that office , -, charge as clerk's fees the sum of $5.20 w lor entering up judgment notes, and the g'", records of the Circuit Clerk's office show that the above sum has heretofore been jV?: collected in all cases where the debtor was responsible. Very recently, however, ia new scale of fees has been adopted by Morse in these cases, as now shown 5^ i|)y the records of his office, and theclerk's fees have now been reduced to $3.45 in each case, so that hereafter our business men and the litigants of our county will «nly have to pay $3.45 in place of $5.20 ^heretofore charged. If Mr. Morse has at Jast been convinced that a portion of the fees heretofore charged by him and -others were illegal, it is commendable in V Mm to adopt a new scale oi fees in con- '4h v formlty to the statute without waiting Vlor the circuit court's decision on the i . three cases appealed by him.

Queen's private purse is $300,000 a s |year, while the Prince of Wales manages '"..•to live on #700,000 income. The : Princess of Wales has $50,000 to herself as pin money, an amount though to be Y sufficient for the entire salary of the V; president of the United States. The various members of the royal family reeei ve large annuities, the archbishop of Canterbury receiving $75,000. This may be necessary to the dignity of the great ofilce.yet it does not extend to the other high officials, who would be bankrupt on their salary if they were not very rich or were kept out of office by their opponents long fnough to recuperate. 26 75 : bo 4 00 2 00 166 21 84 36 121 05 15 00 17 92 19 95 84 75 75 0O 71 69 2 SO 30 00 1 50 17 50 3 24 24 53 3 00 4 00 20 50 4 76 1 00 3 00 1 10 25 4 37 3 76 18 .. 4 22 6 .. 7 50 4 .. 3 .. 15 .. 12 .. 24 78 30 .. 36 .. •17 86 6 70 8 .. 18 .. 3 .. 8 60 30 .. 44 81 30 .. 7 25 2 .. 26 60 55 70 March S8, Total amt ree'd fg|95 18 Total amt paid out. 2840 84 Bal on hand |235i 34 STATE OF TLLINOI8, ) County of McHenry, >s« March 28,1803 Town of McHenry, i This certifies that we have this day exam­ ined the accounts and vouchers of Oaitor Adams, Treasurer of theBoard of Commis. sioners of the Town of McHenry, and Bnd the same to be correct and a balance In his hands of road and bridge funas. the sum of two thousand three hundred and fffty four dol­ lars and thirty.four cents (12354 34 ) i1'.
