One Republican precinet, Deerâ€" field 7, was left without a single candidate. This was not considered serious as a precinct leader may be chosen by the central committee after. the organization meeting. Names may also be written in at the primary election. Both the Republican and Demoâ€" cratic county committees may be called on to name additional preâ€" cinct leaders for the November elecâ€" tion, as m result of the contemplated action byâ€"the board of supervisors at the June or July meeting to reâ€" adjust the precincts in the county.

The order will provide that the superâ€" visors act at the regular June or July meeting. M Withdrawals of precinet candiâ€" dates may be filed with the county clerk until March 8.

River Traffic Increases Rapidly The remarkably rapid growth of Illinois during the second quarter of the 19th century is reflected in the records of transportation on the Illinois river.

However, in 1836, the numâ€" ber leaped to 450. Some of the packets are described as being well constructed and rather expensive. the Federal Writers‘ _ Project, SKOKIEVALLEY LAUNDERY INC.
