That whereas it appears from

taxable property ol Ba»*a county
has very materially decreased in
the total amount, and that the
floating debt (outstanding war
rants), of (he county is now SSOO
greater than at. this time last year,
showing conclusively that if same
salaries of officers bo continued,
lhe indebtedness ot the county
will be s!ill greater in comparison
in another year, and ultimately
end in the dissolution of our or
ganization, (which we consider
would be a calamity) now there
for.".
Be it resolved, by the board of
county commissioners on this the
10th day of July ’97, that from and
after July Ist. 1897, we agree to
work for said county in our official
capacity for $3.00 per day and
mileage, and will continue to
perform our work tor said amount
until the revenue of the county
shall be such that no deficiency ‘
shall exist by receiving the full
amount allowed by law, or until re*
cinded or otherwise changed, and ,
we request all officers of the countv
and others who perform work for ;
it, to make a like reduction from i
their fees and salaries till there- |
ceipts of the county-will meet the
expenditures, without materially
raising the rate of taxation.

The Real Secret of the unpnrnllclcd success
cf Tub Chicago Daily Nkws may be
found in /xv distinguishing characteristics,
which more than anything else have con
iributeJ to its remarkable growth.
First: —lt is a Daily Paper for Busy Pco/io.
The people of the lutsy West appreciate keen
ly the necessity of an intelligent knowledge
of the world’s daily doings, but they are too
busy to waste valuable time in searching
through a cumbrous “ blanket-sheet ” news
paper for the real news of art, litcirtuiv:,
science, religion, politics, and the thourar.d
nnd-onc things which make up modem civ
ilization. They want news—all the news—
but they don't want it concealed in an over
powering massof the trivial and inconsequen
tial. It is because Tiie Chicago Daily
News is “ all -wheat and no chaff," that
its circulation is over “ a million a week."
Second: —lt is an Independent, Truth-telling
Newspaper. The people demand a fair, im
partial, indci>endciit newspaper,which gives
all the news, nml gives it free from the taint
of partisan bias. With no mere political am
bition to gratify, no “ ax to grind,” the im
partial, independent newspaper may truly be
“ guide, philosopher ntid friend ” to honest
men of every shade of political faith; and this
is why The Chicago Daily News has to
day n circulation of over “a million a -week."
The Chicago Daily News now adds to *
these two comprehensive elements of popu
larity, n third, in its unjmrallelcd reduction
of prioc to ONE CENT A DAY.
It is always large enough,—never too large.
Tiie Chicago Daily News is for saixi by
all newsdealers at One Cent per copy, cr
will be mailed, postage paid, for sy.r.o per
year, or ay cents jkt month. The fermer
and mechanic can now afford, ns well as the
merchant and professional man, to have his
metropolitan daily.
